Habibi recently had the chance to test the new Fuji GFX Eterna 55 Large Format camera and put it to a side-by-side test with the Alexa Mini. Using the same lens on both cameras, you really get to see the sensor size difference between S35 and LF. We tested over- and under-exposing both sensors to gauge how well the footage holds up when recovering detail. What impressed us a lot was Fuji's built-in film emulsion 'looks' that feel stunning right out of camera.

What two cameras would you like to see compared?

Habibi recently had the chance to test out the new Fuji GFX Eterna 55 Large Format camera and tested it against the Alexa Mini. Using the same lens on both cameras, you get a real sense of sensor size jumping from S35 to LF. We tested both sensors in high and low light and were most impressed with Fuji's signature 'looks' built into the camera.

It's interesting to see how the sensors react to colours when set to the same camera settings. What cameras would you like to see compared?

We love collaborating with filmmakers in the city to help them achieve their vision. Whether it's assistance in sourcing odds and ends for their shoot, or hosting a camera test for VFX, Habibi is always here to help.

Last week we had and his team come in to test out some VFX proof of concept shots for a future shoot.

You don't always need to have a shoot lined up to make the most of film equipment. That gave us inspiration to turn our Ronin 2 into a mini-me. Paired with the DJI Force Pro, you can control the pan, tilt, and roll of the Ronin with your head. Next time you need a mini-me, or just a camera gimbal, give us a shout!
