The Fujifilm X-T3 Joins My Collection

https://www.instagram.com/p/BoNstQrnpRs/

I received my Fujifilm X-T3 the other day and I have to say I love the way it feels in my hands compared to the X-T2. The slight change to the grip makes the X-T design feel better than ever. I was also shocked at how easy Fujifilm made setting up and updating the camera via the phone app.

In a future post I will share some more photo comparisons and impressions, but right now between Photokina and my house being remodeled around me, I do not have much time to enjoy the X-T3 yet. I’m also working on some more unique content for you guys so stay tuned and follow FujiAddict on Facebook, TwitterInstagram, and YouTube. Also, if I get enough followers on YouTube I might start providing some live streams in the near future.

Fujifilm GFX50R: First Lok

Just about everyone is excited about the Fujifilm GFX50R and Lok isn’t much different. He likes how much more manageable the camera is compared to the Fujifilm GFX50S and I am sure many will appreciate the diet. Thankfully the Fujifilm GFX100S doesn’t look as thick as the GFX50S so it should feel great too. Below are some key points from his first Lok:

  • The shutter is quite
  • Expected it to be heavier
  • Tilt screen too bad you can’t do selfie
  • Instant win for who cost most
  • Thumb rest is really big
  • Diopter just like an X-T3
  • USB-C
  • Capture One Support
  • Great for studio shooting
  • The 50mm f/3.5 feels great and is small
  • He was excited about the GFX50S, but the GFX50R makes him excited because it’s more practical/manageable

Leaving Lightroom: ON1 Photo RAW Announced With Lightroom Photo Settings Import Tool

Everyone is looking to take on Lightroom after their move to a cloud-centric subscription based system and ON1 2019 has made the most progress this year with their AI based Lightroom photo settings import tool feature. I have to say I was shocked to see the feature in action, but it looks like exactly what I asked for when I wrote about leaving Lightroom. You can read the press release below or just the key features. I have a huge Lightroom library to import and I can’t wait to see how the import tool works with a few terabytes of RAW files from different cameras.

Announce Campaign Details:
ON1 Photo RAW 2019 with 1 year of ON1 Plus: $129.99
Full Version for NEW customers: $99.99
Upgrade for existing ON1 Product owners: $79.99

Portrait Module
The new Portrait module will automatically detect faces in your photo and will retouch to smooth skin, brighten and sharpen eyes, and whiten teeth.

Focus Stacking
Blend multiple photos at different focus distances to increase depth-of-field.

Auto-Align Layers
Easily combine multiple photos as layers, then automatically align them based on image content.

Text Tool
Perfect for creating posters, adding your byline or adding editing annotations. Easily control font size, color, position, and more, then save to a preset to add the same text overlay to a batch of photos quickly.

Master Keyword List
Now you can see every keyword that you use in a single, searchable list. You can quickly apply, clear, edit, or delete keywords.

Improved Local Adjustments
Local adjustments will be updated to use the raw processing data. This allows for more highlight and shadow details with more tonal range.

Layered HDR Workflow
With the powerful new non-destructive layers you can combine other photos, text, or alternate exposures with your HDR photos. You can even use the powerful masking tools to combine multiple HDR renditions.

Filter Options in Effects
We have added dedicated film grain, curves, and color adjustment filters to Effects. There’s also a new way to select and browse filters.

User Interface
Overall contrast has been reduced to make photos stand out along with a new font to help increase readability. New icons, tabs, and sliders will also take up less visual space.

Press Release:
We are incredibly excited to announce the new ON1 Photo RAW 2019 – coming this November. Version 2019 is one of the biggest and best releases in our history, and we have the ON1 community to thank. Read More »

Optyczne: Real Fujifilm GFX50R vs GFX50S vs X-E2S Comparison, AF performance, Menus, and More

optyczne posted real life Fujifilm GFX50R vs GFX50S comparison photos in addition to Fujifilm GFX50R vs X-E2S photos in their preview post. According to optyczne the camera feels good even compared to the GFX50S, but it isn’t as sturdy as the GFX50S. The GFX50R also has good AF in low light for a medium format camera. The GFX50R won’t be great for bigger lenses, but it is very portable. The inclusion of USB-C and Bluetooth is also a nice upgrade and the camera turns on quickly.
