DXO: Pentax 645Z Scored Just Below Hasselblad X1D-50c Will The Fujifilm GFX 50S Be Scored Next?

By Louis Ferreira | Published: November 15, 2017


DXO finally completed and published their Pentax 645Z review after being caught removing the results from their page in order to deem the Nikon D850 king of the DXOmark hill. Shortly after the debacle, DXO declared their intent to begin testing medium format cameras again, which began with the Hasselblad X1D-50c and has now moved onto the Pentax 645Z. So now we will see if DXO continues to exclude Fujifilm cameras from their results. Out of the three affordable medium format cameras available today the GFX is aruably the most significant and has the broadest appeal but will DXO include it their medium format testing?

Mitakon Speedmaster 135mm f/1.4 Lens Available For Fujifilm GFX

By Louis Ferreira | Published: November 14, 2017

The Mitakon Speedmaster 135mm f/1.4 lens dwarfs the Fujifilm GFX 50S and seems to be designed for full frame cameras first, but it should work just fine on the Fujifilm GFX thanks to it’s 4:3 sensor, which is more square in design than the 3:2 sensor in most full frame cameras. The price of the lens is ¥330,000 excluding tax (around $2,900). The SpeedMaster 65mm F1.4 and 85mm F1.2 were announced in April of this year.

Fujifilm GFX 50S: GeoTagging, Adapted Glass Reviewed, Capture One, 100 Best Photos, and More

By Louis Ferreira | Published: November 13, 2017

It has been a while since I did a Fujifilm GFX round up so this is a pretty long post. By now most photographers know what the GFX can do, but many seem to still be confused about “sync speed” limitations, even though there are a few companies now supporting HSS in addition to flash interpreters that allow for the use of non-Fujifilm flashes for HSS + TTL. I have covered this topic extensively, but there are still reviews today complaining about sync speed. Regardless it hasn’t prevented photographers from creating some amazing work, which you can view on the top 100 lists at 500px. The new 500px update made the site more useful for looking for lens and camera shoppers. If you decided to join don’t forget to follow me on 500px as Louis Ferreira.
