New Fujifilm Eterna Cinema Cam.

..or Gareth Edwrds who shot the Creator on an FX3. But I agree the cinema world is super conservative with ARRI sitting firmly on top. TV, docu & indie is a more crowded market but there are big players: RED, BM, Canon C & Sony FX. I'm not sure who the target of this Fuji Eterna will be, its gotta be super niche. It's kind of the camera nobody asked for. Medium format sounds great but if you're going to have poor rolling shutter with razor thin DoF plus huge lenses, I don't see many applications where this would warrant such an investment.

I've said this a while ago, but my dream for Fuji is that they revive their old school Fujica system with hand grip a la Bolex. Modernise it with pro I/O and an EVF/flip screen but keep the form factor and essence. Place the XH2S sensor with built-in cooling and an E-ND. It could even be vertical sensor default and it would switch if you rotate 90 degrees. That might make people cringe but the camera would be a hit in wide segments (think X100 craze). And if anyone can go quirky/retro/legacy its Fuji X:

Its not like gaming PC that you overclock a bit and gain some extra performance. The sensor should support that specific read out capacity. 

Yes.  No way are they getting anything much better from what this sensor already does.

Wrong. There are plenty of examples of overclocking various sensors over the years.  You can find them using a little-known research tool called "google."  You might try that in the future before responding.  Just like a computer, overclocking a sensor can lead to increased power consumption, increased heat (leading to more noise), and instability.

Here's one example.

Increased power consumption and heat are hard to deal with in a hybrid camera body which takes a single fairly small battery and has no fan.  They're easier to deal with on a larger camera with integrated cooling fan and a v-mount battery (judging by the pictures, the camera uses them natively).

Only if the sensor supports those modes.  
 

It’s not overclocking.  

And you know for a fact that this sensor doesn’t support any tweaks/adjustments or the ability to improve performance? Please post a link.
