![]() ![]() Everything else and it’s MFT that actually gives many advantages and the extra DOF allows me to make certain compositional choices that would far more difficult with my FF gear. ![]() In fact the applications where FF is really necessary is limited to very high resolution requirements or very challenging low light situations with moving subjects. I actually need full frame for certain applications but it’s certainly not always the best tool for the job. Great glass closes the gap substantially and there is plenty available for the system. I spend big on MFT it’s actually a great system and worth every penny. Does not matter if they will make sensors 34 or 37 mm standard was and it is 35 mm! Because you like to be scientific again remember this!Īlso there are different sizes APS-C but again they are APS-C because this is the standard! This are simple things need to be able to remember them.įF Superior to what? And which FF? because almost every decent APS-C sensor is faster and with better dynamic range compared to Canon 6D2/RP sensor! Or even compared to latest generation APS-C Canon sensor in 90D and M6 mk2!!!!. You like to be scientific! More light come only because of bigger lenses! When you use SAME ( not equivalent by any means but SAME ) lenses you get SAME amount of light!!! Remember this and do not be "not-scientific" anymore!Ībout sensor size standard which current senor inherit is 35mm. So from technical and scientific point of view sensor is not able to provide more or less light. So ecka84 - you know no way to talk too much without say something totally wrong! I will be happy if there is 4K resolution 1" sensor camera with wide range of good lenses. Of course if you are chasing after specific resolution, ISO performance, DoF, look or something else that 35mm sensor fit well - OK!!!īut this is not for everyone and it is not universal! And this is where marketing is BS-iting all over the place! This is exactly why it is ridiculous marketing BS to try to push everyone to 35mm sensor cameras! When 4/3, APS-C and even 1" are pretty enough for 99% of use cases and 99,9% of the needs.īuuuuut this means that we need good and affordable lenses for smaller sensors. Film is growing in sales year on - Exactly this is the point! Most people including professionals do not need to go larger than A4!!! This makes 35mm senors with ultra expensive lenses ultra isolated special tool, not the best tool for everyone!Įxactly as 100-150Mpix MF cameras or LR format cameras. ![]() I’m not really sure what you point is because it has little to do with creative process. Print might be irrelevant for most but that’s why 100mp MF or 67mp cameras exist. Stills photography is a far more democratic means from a creative standpoint to capture drama. For one it is very difficult to produce a convincing video of a scene that doesn’t have amateur “noise” ie: poor editing, low resources and bad sound. Many people are just interested in stills photography as their chosen “craft” hobby whatever you want to call it. The fact that the maximum res we can view that NASA video at 1080p is proof that we are a long way off an 8k standard. The majority buying these devices are stills based practitioners and 12mp is ample for 4k which isn’t even standard yet. Especially if we are talking about the x100 series. ![]() However, having the GFX50S II in the line-up makes it a bit easier to justify dabbling in medium format photography without completely breaking the bank or selling off all our other gear.I think you’ll find that most cameras featured here are stills based with video being the secondary function of the camera. There are some things that the X Series can do better than the GFX system, so I wouldn’t sell off all your gear to ‘upgrade’ to medium format. There will be a learning curve of course (the 4:3 aspect ratio, slower shutter cycle, different button-dial layout) but we will be rewarded with images from a sensor that is almost four times the sensor surface of our beloved X Series cameras. We will immediately see a difference in our images, especially if we’re coming from the X Series. As a gateway camera, the GFX50S II will allow us to capture images at a whole new level. However, I recommend getting the GF50mmF3.5 R LM WR instead of the kit lens. For $4000 USD, we can now enter into the previously unattainable eco-system of digital medium format, or for $4500 USD with the aforementioned kit lens. In conclusion, the GFX50S II makes a lot of sense for Fujifilm, but it also makes a lot of sense for those of us thinking of getting into digital medium format. ![]()
