CineD Focus Check Ep26 – What’s the Camera of the Future? Special Guest: Victor Ha from FUJIFILM

by Felix TappeinerAugust 22^nd, 2024

In this episode, we welcome an extraordinary guest, Victor Ha from FUJIFILM US, who joins us for an intriguing discussion about the future of cameras. They explore the concept of cameras connected directly to the cloud, and whether memory cards might become a thing of the past in future cameras.

Victor Ha is Vice President of Electronic Imaging Division and Optical Devices Division at FUJIFILM North America Corporation, and someone with an outspoken vision about the imaging market, much beyond any individual camera model – which is why we invited him to join us for a very interesting discussion about the “state of the industry.” Full disclosure: FUJIFILM is a sponsor of the Focus Check podcast.
