The latest firmware update for the GFX100 and GFX100S will make it possible to output RAW video to Blackmagic Design’s Video Assist 7” 12G HDR and Video Assist 5” 12G HDR. The latest update will no doubt appeal to those using the GFX 100 and 100s for video as it means it'll have more flexibility when adjusting exposure and color in post. 

This new update will mean that the Fujifilm GFX 100 and Fujifilm GFX 100S will offer features that professional video cameras can offer. Both cameras will now be compatible with the Blackmagic Design’s Video Assist 7-inch and the Blackmagic Video assist 5-inch, (which we think is one of the best on-camera monitors) HDMI up to 4K/29.97 P in 12 bit. Raw footage can be thought of like a digital negative – it contains all the data but needs to be manipulated in post to create the end product.
