According to an interview at CP+ conducted with Focus Numerique (in French), Fujifilm are waiting until the release of the X-T2 to add 4K video – but it IS coming.
Download original files here (note: pre-production firmware). I am really pleased to say the video quality of the X Pro 2 is seriously impressive. It’s not 4K but it’s enormously satisfying, sharp and detailed. What’s great is that now we can finally shoot moving images with Fuji’s superb film-like colour science, without having to worry about image quality.
Right now, 35mm film stock producers Fujifilm are missing a huge opportunity to shape cinema’s future Band of pirates though they are, RED are a profitable company and right now their only competition comes from some unlikely sources – Arri’s Alexa and Canon’s consumer DSLRs.
