Fujifilm eXtended Data firmware update for FUJINON Premista Series

Fujifilm has just released a ZEISS eXtended Data firmware for FUJINON Premista Series cine zooms. Users can now get both the large format 28-100mm and the 80-250mm Premista zoom upgraded at any Fujifilm optical Devices Service Center, while the upcoming 19-45mm T2.9 Premista will ship in early 2021 with the firmware preinstalled. Zeiss Extended Data is a unique technology designed to streamline post-production as well as virtual production, which has been growing in popularity lately. It also increases the accuracy of image capture by efficiently transmitting lens data live thus allowing VFX artists the ability to make precise adjustments on virtual sets or in post.

Atmos Ninja V firmware update

Atomos has some great news for those video users shooting with Olympus mirrorless cameras. The company just released a firmware update enabling ProRes RAW recording via HDMI from the Olympus EM-1X and EM1 III cameras. Supported resolutions and frame rates include 4K DCI up to 24fps and 4K UHD up to 30p in 12bit ProRes RAW to the Ninja V monitor/recorder. ProRes RAW is a fantastic format for those looking to get the maximum image quality out of these two Olympus cameras. It is worth noting that EM-1X users will need to update their camera to firmware version 2.0, while E-M1 Mark III requires firmware v1.2. Atmos Ninja V firmware update
