The next medium format camera from Fujifilm is expected to offer an even higher resolution than the expensive Phase One XF IQ4. According to the latest rumors from a reliable source, Fujifilm is currently developing a GFX camera with a 180MP medium format sensor.
Fujifilm wants to simulate the film experience by having 30 shots fill up a 128 gb sd card

Well, you can just calculate the maximum number of bytes per image to see what the actual capacity is. 128M pixels * 3 bytes per pixel is 384 Megabytes. Should go down to 100 each after JPEG compression.
If you’re spending this much on a camera and only shooting JPEG, what are you doing lol
emulating a film workflow
Fine. Webp.
Most “lossless” compressions (e.g. PNG) wouldn’t work here, because they throw away a lot of extra data you get raw from the camera sensor. Hence photographers using their camera’s “raw” file type to retain as much data as possible. A PNG may capture everything you as a consumer sees in an image, but raw file types will retain extra information you can use when editing a photo.
Increase by 25-50% if you want HDR color specs.
