Intro gave me literally chills. Depth of those images on my OLED 4K TV, playing this video in 4K... Can't even imagine raw files. MAN THIS IS CRAZY. Keep posting more about GFX100 II.
Hey! I’m a photographer specialising in cycling/outdoors (product, fashion and lifestyle more than sports and races) and I work with a GFX50. I wouldn’t trade it with anything else to be honest, in terms of image quality and the kind of interaction you have with the camera. Plus in my industry using medium format is super rare and I noticed it gives me an advantage with clients etc
Are you happy with the native aspect ratio. If you come from full frame you are trained to compose your pictures in 2:3. Is it able to blend in a 2:3 frame for better composing?
@@thorstenjaspert9394I actually much much prefer 4:3. It’s a more dynamic and elegand aspect ratio!
100% agreed about 1 or 2 film simulations that's a complete throwback. While I like the simulations they have now, there's something missing when I look at images of the past that my dad took of my family in the 80s and 90s. Give me that option because it's different from the others they currently have on their bodies!!
You are able to create your own recipes with film simulations and make the look you want. I have some I always use and others I keep trying out to give me various looks depending on what I want to go for
Probably one of the best reviews of this camera on the Internet. I am a GFX photographer And really, I wouldn’t see myself using any other system. It’s a mix of the image quality in depth, the colour science and simply the way the camera works and forces you to operate and produce images in a much more deliberate way than any other small format camera.
The decisive moment is not there to be obliterated by 120 FPS but to be enjoyed and made the most out of. I feel my Fujifilm allows me not just to get the best out of the situation, but also to enjoy the situation while I’m in it.
If they keep progressing like this I’d sell my whole kit and just have a single GFX camera
Says all of us always.
im putting a kidney on the line at this point
I always used to say software power(phones) vs optics power. Now there is a third player 😊
Well worth the investment. Beautiful IQ.
Excellent video on this awesome camera system! However, if one isn’t interested in “speed”, but rather image sharpness and detail in stills, product and landscape photography, how does it (and the Fujinon lenses compare to the lenses of the Hasselblad X2D system?
Absolutely beautiful photos. I agree that I’d like to see more film simulations. Thanks for showing us the system!
I’ve used the GFX system since the day it came out(switching from the Hasselblad Digital line) as a commercial automotive photographer. I am still using the original 1009 I’ve taken enough photos with it the shutter broke 😅) and find that camera to be the best camera I’ve ever used in over 20years of photographing cars………..super excited for what the new version brings to the table.
I’m a pro and shoot basically everything on my 50sii. I don’t do sports, but do weddings, editorial portraits, product photography, and travel/street. I have used it while in a massive storm in Iceland all the way to my studio and I never really have any complaints. The 50 series is significantly slower in focusing than even the past 100 series so I can’t imagine a scenario where I’d have issues. I had a chance to shoot it for a few minutes before launch and it was waaaayy faster than my camera so I have no doubts it’s great. I think the biggest benefit for me is I can bring one body and something like the incredible 55mm 1.7 and just crop as needed. I regularly shoot on only that combo and have excellent results. The colors in cam look fantastic which makes me more confident to show my clients at shoots also. That’s a massive plus for me coming from Sony. The end result is really great but you can get very similar looks in full frame. It’s definitely noticeably better to my eyes, and I’ve had clients comment how they noticed I stepped up my gear which makes me think it’s worth something. So yeah all in all, I’m 100% team GFX if you can afford the cost and a little extra weight.
Hey man, I really appreciate this in-depth comment. And have a question on what you would use auto focus wise if you were doing a panning shot of say a motorcycle or bicyclist.?
Eye tracking actually looks pretty good for simple walking! This is the thing I’ve been waiting for!
The tracking is phenomenal. Huge step up from the 100S.
Why is this video soo calming so relaxing and makes me wanna just go out and start shooting whatever I see
I kept smiling the whole video. Great photos, the depth of field and the transition from out of focus to in focus, the colours the music. God I love photography.
Great great video
Definitely gonna watch it again❤️
Edit: goosebumps at the end of the video
Love your work man
What a super video. So chilled. Have this camera and love it. I still need my canon 1dx mk3 for work but use this for everything else. ❤
One of the best overviews on this camera I've seen so far!
Man those images that you get from this camera looks cinematic
so romantizing, music and the city! 🥰😍🤩
Thanks for the nice video on this camera. I am a GFX100s shooter myself and really like this camera. Like you said, if you don't need speed but like incredible image quality this 102 megapixel sensor with 16 bit colour is at the top of the line. As for focus speed, I am not sure whether the 55mm f1.7 is the best for this as it uses the stepping motors (also found in the 80mm f1.7). The Fuji lenses with linear motor (LM designation in the lens name) are notably faster focussing (e.g. 23mm f4, 110mm f2 and 250mm f4). The Fuji GF glass is high quality, but aimed at photography, and not really good for hybrid use.
Looks like an amazing camera, but I love the honesty “probably not buying this because of the weight of lenses.”
Amazing video as usual
Tyler just to be clear. The camera is not suitable for any sport and any picture with subject in movement? I can't see any good photo in the people walking, is that slow AF the problem?
Hi Tyler, I bought the 100s with 35-70 "kit" lens: This zoom is really light and the pics are still amazing. I use it when I go hiking, and the set is not too heavy. More stationary I use the amazing 120 macro lens and now I've got me the 100-200 zoom. In the future, I could imagine to get the 20-35 mm zoom as well as the 80mm 1.7. The tilt/shift are beautiful, but out of my budget....
What do you think about Fujifilm X-T20 with fujinon 18-55mm lens? How much is good max price for used body (only)?
Dream camera right now
I work professionally with Sony but keep getting closer to picking up a GFX100 S as an awesome pure photo boutique/hobby camera.
Hi Tyler, nice video, thanks for the informative session about the Fuji's new medium format. One side question, which brand is the blue denim jacket you are wearing at 3:10 time mark? Thanks again.
Is it faster than the 50sii ? And how does the 100sii differ when it comes to focusing compared to past versions ?
you showed the shift/tilt lens and you were able to say that there are two. Yes, these are low-angle copies from Nikon. But you can't say that the diagonal of the medium format allows for greater possibilities at extreme lens positions. About whether the coverage area of such a lens is larger.
I am a PhaseOne XF user, and 90% or more of my use is on a tripod. The remaining 10% of use is in optimal conditions for be handheld. While there a several reasons currently why I would not go switch to the Fuji, the most important is that PhaseOne has / uses leaf-shutter lenses, and Fuji does not. If I was new to medium format, and my use case did not require leaf-shutter lenses, I would go with the Fuji medium format.
Great point about the leaf shutter, not many brands offer it and it's a huge feature
@@stalman - I am a fashion photographer, and I need to be able to use 1/1600th shutter speeds while using studio flashes. HSS is not the same.
@@stalman - one other thing. I use the IQ3-100mpx digital back, and that sensor is larger than the Fuji sensor.
As a previous Pentax 645Z owner I really hope Fuji have the sense to do what Pentax and Leica did with their medium format systems. Offer several leaf shutter lens options in the most useful focal lengths which the camera body recognises and switches to a special sync mode. Best of both worlds. Fujifilm would absolutely dominate medium format in the realm of 44x33mm 🙌
Unreal photographs, lovely work
Hi Tyler! Just got my 100S II in the mail and I’m excited to take it backpacking for some great wildlife and landscape shots!
P.s. I actually saw you at WWDC this past spring (I’m an engineer @ Apple) but didn’t say hi as you looked busy taking shots with your Leica :D
What’re you using day-to-day these days?
Are these straight out of camera jpegs?!!! Because these pics look incredible!! I’ve been waiting for Panasonic to release an S1R ii but after seeing this plus reading reviews of the image quality……….I just may have to save up for a GFX………I would would shoot mostly landscape, nighttime, cityscape & some portrait work.
If image quality is your top priority, the Fuji wins. But I can fit two Lumix and three lenses in my backpack, so that's what I'll use.
@@stalman GFX 50 ii image quality look compared to the new GFX 100ii
Great video. The camera looks phenomenal with each iteration the trade offs with full frame are lesser. One thing that struck me from the video id when you were recording with the iPhone. It looked bad to me in a way other times I don’t notice it that much. Too much contrast and oversharpening. Thanks for the review! Love when you release camera focused stuff, Tyler
Yeah the sharpening is so strong. I wonder if it was native camera app, black magic has an iPhone camera app for video it’s nice.
I did notice it. This is the worst iPhone video I’ve seen for years.
some of these photos make me realize that a lot of Joey L's look is the wonder of these MF sensors
Each image is bonkers
I need this with their 500mm and tc coming out for wildlife
Hi Tyler! Just a friendly psa. Since the introduction of GDPR in Europe(Sweden in this case), you actually need a letter of consent or model release to show people’s faces online. This has of course been a nightmare for us professionals.
Since the Mark II came out, I have noticed the price of the 100s plummet, I can almost afford it now! Any thoughts on major differences between the 100s and 100 II? I have heard that the image files appear identical when reviewing. But as your video alludes, the experience of shooting (auto focus etc) is likely more advanced in the 100 II?
I got the GFX 100s last year. It is a slower camera, but not as bad as I would have thought. I literally LOVE that camera. I bring it on shoots where MF isn't even needed, but its just a well designed camera I find it hard to pick up anything else for client work. The auto focus is tough though, so knowing they have fixed it a bit with this generation is great to hear. I had a shoot where the last shot of the day had some one walking off an elevator. The autofocus was killing me and we had to do it over and over to get it right. Very interested in this camera, but I'll wait for the next generation or 2 before I upgrade again. The 100s has been holding me down.
I have both bodies and the AF is LIGHTYEARS ahead of the 100S. Even with the sluggish 80mm attached to it.
Seriously, you'd wonder how any professional could have taken a decent photo before the introduction of autofocus cameras.
This is my dream camera! But I'm hoping for an updated (and more affordable) 50 Megapixel model.
Don’t think it’s happening any time soon. No new 50MP sensors in development 🤷🏼♂️
The images are 🔥
Good video. Did you know that many full frame lenses actually can cover the GFX sensor? Hmmm? Anyway if adapting lenses is not your thing, there’s always the excellent GF 50mm F3.5… which equates to F2.8 on full frame.
Full frame lenses do not cover the sensor, you would have to crop
Some do, sometimes without a strong vignette. @@stalman Old TS lenses for instance
Got my copy with GF 35-70mm yesterday. Trying to keep size and weight down for now.
I feel like I can't even trust eye tracking on somebody standing still with my xh2. It always seems a bit off like it's hitting the eyebrows or nose or shoulder even
Would have loved to get more of a hybrid shooter perspective from your end, I think it could be the first real good option for that from what I have been reading about it.
Still good review! Thanks!
I just didn’t have enough time shooting video to form a solid take. Not sure many filmmakers will use it as their first choice be it definitely opens up some interesting creative possibilities
another great video. Thank you!
About to buy a 100s and then this came out. Now I’m saving another $3k. :)
The IBIS is exciting, coming from a GFX 50R.
How does it compare to the flagship full frame cameras in the market, like the Sony A1, Canon R3, etc specifically for low light and high dynamic range?
Hasselblad, the perfect detail image quality than the another brand.
what's the crop factor of this camera? been looking for a fast lens for it, but at 0.79x and 4.0/f, DOF would be more shallow than a more affordable FF camera.
This is the best digital sensor rendering I have ever seen. Wtf Fuji
Tyler fantastic review I'm loving mine. What lens were you mostly shooting with?
I should have been more clear that almost every one of these shots was on the 55mm, only one or two were on the zoom
Great that you attended Fuji X Summit. There are not many You Tubers attending the X Summit. Why not test the different video functions?
I did use video but I didn't have the camera long enough to properly test the video, so I didn't want to go too deep into it.
Fujinon GF50mm F3.5 - the lightest lens for street photography.
Thanks for the video!! You stand out too much with this camera, I wouldn't use it for street photography.
Rumour is a Fujifilm GFX 100Sii in the first quarter 2024, have you heard anything?
Its now available on pre order...!! I'm going to order one..!!
How is the low light high ISO quality and dynamic range compared to GFX 100 ?
Looking for something for shooting Tango Dance videos for RUclips and Insta reels. Now wondering is this a good kit. It's just that Medium Format made me wonder its video would be really good.
Your dad seems like a pretty cool dude
What phone did you shoot this ep on?
iPhone 14, the day that the 15 was announced
@@stalman looks greatttttt
He shot it on his landline phone 🤪
Lense used?
The new 55mm
EVERY SHOT YOU SHOWED WAS A DIME. ❤
Sicher ist die Kamera ein Traum. Ein großer Nachteil des Mittelformates ist hier aber das Format. Für mich macht 4:3 keinen Sinn, denn wir haben uns im Bereich der Fotografie an das 3:2-Format gewöhnt, das sowohl bei Landschaftsaufnamen als auch bei Porträts wesentlich mehr Sinn macht. Mittelformat ist für die Industrie und Mode vielleicht ein Weg, nicht aber für Steen-Photography. Eine Kleinbildkamera mit 60MPIX macht ist hier doch viel besser und mit einem lichtstarken Objektiv sind gleiche Ergebnisse möglich.
Because the sensor is so big and 100mp cropping is not a problem at all. Heck, even at 24mp on full frame cropping to the aspect ratio you want is fine
Am I crazy, or are you sick? Sounding a little nasally-- not an attack, just curious - always enjoying your stuff.
why didnt you say nikon when you listed good AF cameras......
Was this video SHOT ON THE GFX? So you had 2 bodies? One to hold and another to shoot yourself?
No shot on iPhone 14 and Lumix S5II
100mp medium format bursts at 8 frames per second? That sounds like a small storage commitment…
It's not that I'm a bad photographer, I'm just broke. lol
Scary to watch somebody with a camera like that without a strap.
Now I feel like GF lenses can't keep up with new autofocus system.
Full Frame+*
I'm a bigger guy and I have XL hands. I enjoy a bigger camera. I struggle with the small cameras.
Then you will love this one
In bursting mode, the autofocus doesn't work properly. The pictures are blurry!!
I steel with my 100s
"Sony, Canon and LUMIX" should be "Sony, Canon and Panasonic".. I don't know why American's keep saying LUMIX when they don't say ALPHA for Sony .. please say Panasonic, not LUMIX, so we know you're talking about a brand, not a camera model ;-)
X pro1 x ever
Let me start by asking who takes photos on the street with a 100 megapixel matrix? show those photos enlarged that you are happy with at 1/20 s. Have you ever printed anything larger than 30x40cm? I don't see anything in these photos that you can't do with a camera for a little money. Another thing is analog photography. I would ask you not to compare it. This simulator is a "toy". The film has its own tone, grain and sharpness. I don't remember that you can underexpose or overexpose it and you will see your mistakes after developing it. What you show is the world on your monitor. Examples of autofocus work are at the level of the old analogue. Mamiya RB67 will also reduce the focus of a riding cyclist. I will also do it with Nikon F100. Fuji is well priced compared to other medium format cameras and has a lot of lenses. This is the only marketing advantage. This will only clog up your hard drive.
The camera is amazing and all, but the iPhone footage really disturbed me. Unless this was the pixel, This is the worst iPhone video I’ve seen for years!!!
How did you manage to get the iPhone footage (if indeed it is iPhone) to look so bad? 😢
Colors just seem so dead with the Fuji in comparison to the Hasselblad x2d
I dunno, both are pretty great
7:22 needs to shave them pits.
why almost all camera reviewers shoot so poorly composed images ?
First
what's the camera for your video? is ti canon?
so fuji wants to beat sony a1 with this camera in auto focus but still behind a1 that released from years back
