Fujifilm GFX100 Technical Analysis Part 4: Final Round-up


Jim Kasson finished his GFX100 testing and I have to agree with him that the GFX100 is not a nitch camera. You can go through the first round-up here, the second round-up here and the third round-up here. Jim did some additional testing with an Epson P800 here if you want to read about it, but I left it out of this final round-up since most will order prints form a professional shop instead of printing at home.

The Last Word – GFX 100 self-heating read noise and EDR

There is a very small gradual increase in the noise, amounting to about 0.2 counts. This is nothing to worry about.

The Last Word – Fujifilm GFX 100 conclusions

Before the GFX 100 shipped, there were many who said that it would be a niche camera, with volume a tiny fraction of that for its 50-MP brethren. I doubted that then. I doubt it even more now.

Novoflex Automatic Reverse Adapter For Fujifilm X (FUX-RETRO)

Novoflex announced a new FUX-RETRO automatic reverse adapter for Fujifilm X cameras in addition to new automatic bellows that they released earlier this week:

Products for close-up and macro photography are a specialty of NOVOFLEX and enjoy an excellent reputation in the photographic world. The Memmingen based company is now adding four new automatic reverse adapters for the camera systems Canon EOS-R, Fujifilm X, L-Mount (Leica, Panasonic, Sigma) and Nikon Z to complement its extensive assortment.

Already with the kit lenses in retro position the new reverse adap- ters enable an easy access to the fascinating world of macro pho- tography. In fact, the achievable reproduction scale is larger than in case of most of the significantly more expensive macro lenses. The reverse adapters are compatible for all prime lenses and nearly every zoom lens. Recommended are zoom lenses in the lower focal length segment. The huge number of compatible lenses as well as the use of a bellow, offer a manifold combination potential.

The new adapters transfer all control features between camera and lens. As standard they are supplied with a 58 mm filter thread. Appropriate lens adapters are available for lenses with filter diameters from 37 mm to 82 mm. In order to protect the sensitive rear lens element NOVOFLEX supplies a high-quality, multi-layered protection filter „Made in Germany“ from the manufacturer Heliopan.

General advantages at a glance:

  • small and light-weight
  • all functions of the lens remain unchanged • multi-purpose combination possibilities

Advantages over macro lenses:

  • greater image scales
  • inexpensive solution

Advantages over extension tubes:

  • lighter and smaller
  • gapless transition from normal to extreme image scales

Advantages over close-up lenses:

  • remarkably higher image scales
  • greater versatility in terms of image scales

Order codes:

  • Canon EOS-R: EOSR-RETRO
  • Fujifilm X: FUX-RETRO
  • L-Mount: LET-RETRO
  • Nikon Z: NIKZ-RETRO

For US pricing and availability check B&H Photo / Amazon / Adorama and shipping should start in September
