ETERNA ProRemote
ETERNA ProRemote for FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55
ETERNA ProRemote is a remote-control app that connects GFX ETERNA 55 to iOS and iPadOS devices, including smartphones and tablets, via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or wired LAN. There are three selectable connection modes to support the needs of a variety of production types, ranging from single remote operation to multi-camera setups with up to four connected cameras.
Three Connection Modes for Flexible Operation
Simple
Simple Mode connects to GFX ETERNA 55 via Bluetooth and enables basic operation, including starting and stopping recording, controlling the power zoom, and conducting Backup/Restore camera setting profiles. Up to four cameras can be connected and operated remotely without the need for a separate access point. The setup is the quickest of the three modes.
Advanced-Single
Advanced-Single Mode supports connection via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and allows users to control camera settings and lenses, all while monitoring the live camera feed. Because the camera communicates directly with the iOS or iPadOS device, this mode does not require a separate access point.
Advanced-Multiple
Advanced-Multiple supports multi-camera operation, allowing connection of up to four cameras through the network of an external access point.

Flexible Monitoring to Enhance On-Set Versatility
Advanced-Single and Advanced-Multiple modes support live video monitoring from camera, enabling a flexible solution for a monitor in situations such as viewing images from a position away from the camera during crane shots or using the device as a monitor for camera crews and other production staff. When multiple cameras are connected in “Advanced-Multiple” mode, users can monitor the live feed from all connected cameras, providing an effective multicam monitoring solution.

Display Functions to Support Accurate Image Evaluation
In Advanced-Single and Advanced-Multiple modes, users can display a variety of exposure and color tools to effectively evaluate the image – this includes waveform, RGB Parade, vectorscope, and histogram. Users can choose between an “overlay display”, which superimposes information over the image, or a “side-by-side display”, which places information outside of the image.

Advanced Remote Camera Control
In Advanced-Single and Advanced-Multiple modes, users can manually focus, use Touch AF, and control power zoom while monitoring the live camera feed. Focus and zoom can be adjusted from an iOS/iPadOS device, enabling camera and lens operation according to the intended shot even in situations where direct access to the camera is difficult, such as during crane shots.
Recorded files, including video clips and frame grab images, can be transferred to a connected device, allowing for quick and direct access to recorded files.
Information Display and Camera Settings Management to Improve Operational Efficiency
In Advanced-Single and Advanced-Multiple modes, users can view key camera information — including frame rate, shutter angle, ISO sensitivity, ND filter value, iris, color settings — which are is displayed along with the live video feed.
ETERNA ProRemote “Backup/Restore” feature. It supports the saving and loading of custom camera settings, allowing users to save camera settings and to load them into cameras when needed. When multiple cameras are connected in “Simple” or “Advanced-Multiple” mode, settings from one camera can be copied to other cameras.
