Fujifilm GFX 50S: Astrophotography, Pentax 645Z vs GFX, Landscapes, and Interview

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 31, 2017

The Fujifilm GFX 50S is a great camera for Astrophotography and I regularly shoot my GFX alongside my Fujifilm X-T2 every month during the new moon, which you can see in my astrophotography album.

It seems that content creators are shifting increasingly towards video and sites like Instagram, which is a shame because they do not come close to being able to demonstrate the full potential of the Fujifilm GFX. In total today there is about an hour of GFX video content along with an interesting Pentax 645Z vs GFX comparison, but it’s in Russian so you will have to use auto-translate, which isn’t very good for this video.

I’m in the process of assembling some final studio work and impressions before putting my launch system review together. I also have some new astrophotography shots from a different location that are better than anything else I have obtained so far and I can’t wait to share them. I also got my hands on a Sony a9 that you will be able to read about over at Sonyaddict if you’re interested.

Fujifilm GFX 50S: For Cinematography, Road Trip, Reviews, and Fujinon GF 32-64mm F4 R LM WR

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 30, 2017

The above video shot with a Nikon mount Helios 85mm f/1.5 on the Fujifilm GFX 50S by Tim Shoebridge is a good example of how the GFX is bringing creativity out of photographers and videographers. Many of the limits that people place on themselves in photography are self-imposed, due to an over-reliance on automatic systems and while the Fujifilm GFX can operate automatically, it is really meant to be used manually.Below there are GFX road trips going on and I hope to do my own photo trip this summer, but the blogs have been busy. Maybe when the Fujinon GF 23 f/4 R LM WR comes in.

Fujifilm X-T20: Tips, Travel, Reviews, and More

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 29, 2017

Adam Wilson above took a trip to Vietnam with his Fujifilm X-T20 and came back with some amazing footage and images. You can see his images here part 1, part 2, and part 3. Below Adam’s first video of North Berwick.

The Fujifilm X-T20 is a great second camera for X-T2 owners or a good upgrade for someone looking to move beyond an entry level cameras like the X-A3 or X-A10. I have never been one to use auto image review, but apparently if you have it enabled on your X-T20 you should disable it immediately to maximize your cameras performance. It can cause your camera to miss focus repeatedly.

Fujifilm GFX 50S RRS L-Plate Set Update

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 28, 2017


Really Right Stuff sent out an E-mail to customers that orders the RRS Fujifilm GFX 50S RRS L-Plate containing the following information:

“GFX 50S L-Plate Set Update

Hi …,We recently shipped to you

We recently shipped to you a RRS L-Plate Set for your new Fuji GFX 50S camera. This plate set features our modular design consisting of a custom base plate that mounts to the base of your camera, and a separate L-component that  slides into a groove in the base plate. Unfortunately this particular design utterly failed on the “smooth & easy” feature.

We tried a new approach with this design in an attempt to make the plate even more rigid when used in portrait/vertical mode. But this change came at the cost of the user experience, and made the L-component nearly impossible to slide out for quick access to the battery. We’ve listened to your feedback and want to assure you that we’re working on the “really right” solution. We’ll be back in touch shortly to let you know how we plan to deliver the L-Plate that your Fuji camera deserves. In the meantime, please continue to use the base plate; all necessary modifications will only involve the L-component.”

The reader that sent in the E-mail had the following perspective on the product: Read More »
