Fujifilm GFX Size Comparison… Kind of… Not Really…

By Louis Ferreira | Published: January 14, 2017

A reader asked me about some “comparison” photos that I want to address. Photosku released some “comparison” photos of the Fujifilm GFX 50s, Hasselblad X1D-50c, and Pentax 645Z that have been passed around as a “comparisons”, but if you read the translation…

“Since “GFX 50S” has not yet been published full specifications, I compared only the appearance.”

It’s nothing more than promotional photos side by side “clickbait.” Fujiaddict is pretty sure we know the exact size of the camera based on using the known sensor size to build a model camera (152.4 x 93 x 75 mm) w/o vf (152.4 x 113.71 x 75 mm) with viewfinder. Our Printable GFX is the only known accurate comparison photo at this time. It’s impossible to do much better at the moment.

It’s always nice to see how these cameras look next too each other, but the GFX 50S and X1D are much closer in size then these photos show, which misrepresents the GFX 50S.

Make sure to join our Facebook groups at GFX owners group and Facebook page if you want to participate in more factual analysis of the Fujifilm GFX system in the future. I hope to have a camera on day one so I can be an active part of the community.

Fujifilm’s GS645S and GS645 Compared

By Louis Ferreira | Published: January 13, 2017

Lots of photographers are pulling out old Fujifilm medium format cameras with the announcement of the Fujifilm GFX. Fujifilm’s rangefinder medium format cameras are a great value right now if you come across them. I hope the GFX and cameras like it lead to a medium format renaissance in photography. Many photographers are overly attached to the full frame format.

Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R vs Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R APD

By Louis Ferreira | Published: January 11, 2017

If you’re a little confused about the difference between the Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R and Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R APD Zed ProMedia has made it really simple to understand the difference. I personally own the Fujinon XF56mmF1.2 R because I like that PDAF works with it and I utilize the extra light gathering capability, but I can appreciate why people might want to buy the APD for slightly creamier bokeh. The reviewer says he finds it slow, but it hasn’t been slow for me on my Fujifilm X-T1/X-Pro2/X-T2, but I’m not sure what settings he’s using. This is a snappy lens for it’s speed.
