Fujifilm Marketing Videos Get Shuffled

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 9, 2017

Earlier today I noticed that a few of my earlier posts had broken video links in them and I wondered why. It seems Fujifilm is shuffling some of the content around, which was released early on X-Photographer channels. This content covers the Fujifilm GFX 50s, X-T2, X-T20, and Fujinon MK18-55 T2.9 Cine Lens. Only some of the original videos have been removed and it’s not uncommon for Fujifilm to cross-post videos on multiple international channels, but having photographers removed videos they are featured in from their channel is a first.

Fujifilm GFX 50S & Broncolor Bridal Shoot, ACROS Video, and More

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 9, 2017

The Fujifilm GFX system is an absolute bargain compared to the compitition acording to the majority of independant reviewers, but photographers are still trying to decided if it should be an everday use camera. I use mine for just about everything except telephoto photography, but I am looking into adapting glass so I can do some birding with my GFX in the near future. If the GFX improves as much as the X-Pro1 did then we shouldn’t need phase detect autofocus anytime soon. m43 has proven that contrast detect autofocus can be good enough for the majority of photography needs.

Fujifilm GFX 50S: Tap & Dye’s Hasselblad Neck Strap

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 8, 2017


Cameras rarely come with quality neck straps. Even special edition Leica cameras come with relatively poor quality neck straps that owners quickly replace if they use their camera regularly. While a few members of our Fujifilm GFX Owners Group have purchased alternative neck straps many are currently using their stock neck strap or are waiting for more options.

I was in the second camp that was waiting for more selection to emerge, but since my stock strap started fraying I decided to take a chance on a 50″ Tap & Dye’s Hasselblad neck strap. Tap & Dye was unsure if it would fit correctly, but I took a chance and it fits perfectly. This is my first Tap & Dye product and the fit and finish are exceptional. If you like leather I don’t think you can go wrong with them and their prices are relatively reasonable for a handcrafted good. The only things they could do to make their strap nicer would be offering an option for a custom stamp design in the leather and to let you send in your GFX strap lugs (Tap & Dye contacted me and you can further customize your strap, but you will have to contact them about going beyond the website options).

If leather isn’t your thing Artisan & Artist makes a cloth and silk cord Hasselblad neck strap and Black Label Bag makes a similar cloth strap. B&H Photo and Amazon have a variety of Hasselblad options available. Hopefully, we will see a lot more options in the near future. There is definitely a market for these Hasselblad straps now that the Fujifilm GFX is available.

Fujifilm GFX 50S: Weddings, Motorsports, and Roundup

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 6, 2017

The Fujifilm GFX 50S has a pretty large following compared to the number of people that actually own and shoot the camera daily and it’s reflected pretty well in the growth of our Fujifilm GFX Owners Group, which is full of photographers sharing their experiences on Facebook. It’s groups like these that prove naysayers wrong because today you can find someone using a Fujifilm GFX for just about everything. Some of the motorsport work I have seen over the past few days along with the interesting combinations of adapted glass have surprised even myself.

I’m sure we will see even more great work once the autofocus telephoto lens launches along with the teleconverter. It will be amazong to have 300-600mm of reach with the Fujifilm GFX for birding and wildlife photography.
