Great coverage of this camera. I LOVE using mine. I've used it for weddings and like you were saying it's kinda crazy seeing how medium format is able to keep up with full frame. Give it a couple of years and it'll be just as capable.
I'm still rockin the GFX 50s and love it. The dream is to sell enough pictures to buy one of these. I haven't seen a lot of people test this thing in a dark setting, these pictures are insane! Killin it Cam!
Brilliant video! The photos look absolutely insane, like a whole new level of detail and color. Would be fantastic to see you do a review of the video capabilities. And the shoot at the motel is like an Ocean's Eleven of YT favourites, so much fun.

@@RiceCubeTechexactly. There are nun photographers I see that have even less than 100 subs granted they just started doing videos but nevertheless there are many that are on the platform
Every still looked like it was about to start moving. The feeling that sensor evokes when put in the hands of someone who knows what they’re doing… Might be the best out there
I had to trade my Nikon Z system for this and it’s very much worth it. I have the 80 1.7 and I’ve used it on the 100S previously and it wasn’t bad, it just froze a lot. The 100II refines the whole system and makes every GF lens better. I’m about to get that same cage.
Dope episode...the editing flow is top notch....the gfx 100 II is a true powerhouse...having a medium format sensor hybrid is my dream camera come true!
Bro. This so amazing, thank you for putting this together. All my cámaras are Nikon, I have from de D500, D850, and then four Z bodies from Zf to Z9 I love what I have, but one cámara aside from what I have has been the GFX100 and never been able to get it cause I’ve been investing a lot on other gear, but now with the new GFX100 II I feel closer to having it, I love this video, great content, keep putting out more about the GFX, for both video and stills.
I would love to have this camera! This is is probably one of the very few hybrid cameras I would want to own. Phenomenal photos & videos can be made here. The Fujifilm Cameras of late seem so awesome. Fantastic shots you took by the way!
Thanks for this…within the last 4-5 years, I have become more interested in Medium Format bodies…the thing has kept me from upgrading from full frame has been price points as well as speed! The speed thing doesn’t seem to be in an issue these days (especially since my work flow has “slowed” down) so I have been looking HARDER into medium format…Great shots by the way! 😊
Just a small correction. Fuji GFX cameras are a cropped medium format standard. If you look at it in terms of a 35mm crop factor it sits at x0.79 or about 1.67 times larger. So although definitely larger, it's closer than you'd think. Which is why a lot of lenses cover it outside of their circle of good vision.
What do you define as medium format standard? Because coming from the film world.. there’s multiple formats of medium format. So not exactly any standard. I think the closes thing we could measure is the verticle distance of 120 stock
@@cammackey no, im not saying it is cropped from a specific medium format standard. im saying its using a cropped standard. just like aps-c and s35 are both different "cropped" standards compared to 35. GFX is about ~44x33mm. but yes you could compare it to other standards. 645 is 60x45mm (although a lot of 645 cameras are smaller). and this is obviously even smaller than the 60x70mm of your 6x7 cameras. anyways, wording aside, i was just correcting the phrasing of "2-3x times larger than 35mm" in your video.
Dope. Convincing me more to sell my medium format film to switch over to medium format digital for my work. Also iirc the irix cine lenses cover 8K resolution? so those photos on the GFX should be tack sharp and super sick. Those irix lenses are pretty underused. Sick work as always Cam.
I got this camera. Neither me, not the shop that sold me that camera, not Google no forum and not Chat GPT are able to find out what damn anmorphic lens can be mounted on this camera. Any concrete answers here ? thx
@@cammackey Thx for answering I love your vids 🥰!! -->I was beeing told that the special anamorphic Live-de-crop-function of the gfx 100ii wouldnt work when I use an anamorphic lens that was built for smaller sensors, so it would be senseless to use any lens that would need an adapter (....and that did make sense to me.) Is that wrong ?
hi I can help clarify - the live de-squeeze function works for any most anamorphic lenses as you can choose 1.3, 1.5, 1.8 and 2.0 monitoring in camera. However, to have the files saved on the card as desqueezed (so won't have to in post) that is only with a 2x squeeze, so for that you would need an anamorphic lens with a 2x squeeze factor. Also keep in mind if the lens only covers s35, then on the gfx that keeps you in 8k only, whereas if the lens covers full frame and upwards, then you can shoot in 4k. Hope this helps! @@Mophonic
I tried out the 50s years ago when I was moving back to full frame and ended up going with Sony which felt like it had like 95% of the quality but was more versatile and less expensive. I hadn't kept up with the GFX but the latest cameras look pretty amazing. (Colors on the set look fantastic too.)
Man do you think this can keep up with wedding work? I want one as a hybrid camera so bad but afraid that it won’t be fast enough for wedding videography.
I believe this camera is the precursor to Fuji's large format cinema / watershed / mass market appeal moment, at a lower price and even better than the II is for video.. I'm glad a bought a set of Mamiya 645 for my II before people realize how amazing this camera and vintage MF lenses are together... Keep up the good work and love the roadrunner (?) at the end
I would kill for a lower megapixel box camera with this sensor in it, better monitoring, and professional I/O. As it is, the ii has become my main personal camera for video work as a full-time DP. If they could just fix the monitoring problems I would have almost no complaints. Even the ergonomics of it are great for video with the battery grip and tilt bracket for the EVF. Now if they would just make an extension cable for the EVF so that we could use it on the shoulder…
we can hope.. I think Fuji will be surprised how many DPs gravitate towards this camera and hopefully that will push them to do an even more video-focused GFX camera.. @@stefancolson
I shoot stills and film with the GFX100ii full time and have both vintage Mamiya glass and most of the new Fuji. Fuji wins hands down. Great great quality glass and gives up no character to the old Mamiya stuff while retaining full AF and tracking. Also, be sure to research the image circle. Most old glass will not cover unless you go into one of the crop modes.
How do you feel about all of the hot pixels that pixel mapping is never even fixing? I love using my GFX 100S but this is the only thing that irks me whenever I use it
Yeah this one was a rental, but previous GFX cameras had some as well. It’s honestly super easy to edit out if it’s ever noticeable but usually it’s only noticeable at high ISO and when in the editor and cropping. But yeah it does irk me anytime I see them just because of the price point. But it’s sadly a normal think on high MP sensors
Gorgeous stills, there's something very special about the images out of this camera - particularly when in your hands! When you say the Irix 30mm covers the full sensor, which resolution were you shooting in? Curious cos the Irix 15mm vignettes on my full frame cams in open gate, whereas the Athena 14mm doesn't. Sorely tempted to get a 100ii...
As you've tried the gfx100ii and the nikon z8, which would you rather use for portraits, lowlight club/events for both stills and video. I just want to invest into 1 system only, and I don't mind weight or size. Gf 45-100 + 100f2 vs nikon 24-70 + 135 plena/or 85 1.2. I have the budget for either system.
How does a director actually sit down? Granted, I've only ever been on super low budget sets, but I, and other directors, always stand, and always at the camera or very close by.
@@phoenixprjct I guess we'll just disagree. I will never sit down while everyone else is on their feet doing their jobs. Also, one work smarter and harder at the same time :-)
You can disagree all you want but it doesn’t change the fact that on a professional set the director should be at the monitor or with the actors. When everyone is doing their jobs correctly There’s no need to be running around all crazy for 12 hours. There is a big difference when you’re understaffed and underpaid but that shouldn’t be your goal in professional filmmaking. Trying to make it sound like people aren’t working as hard or professionally because they are sitting at times is simply naive.
Hei... I really appreciate you for effort on GFX 100 ii story. I am a person who dreaming ma film debut in GFX100ii and working on it. Any information on GFX100ii is very valuable for me. Thanks bro!
If there was ONE lens you’d recommend for this camera which might it be? (Love the video by the way… really great to see the production value you put into your work… new fan here🎉)
I always thought if they could improve the autofocus, they could make some headway into the event photography/video market. And secretly, I'm waiting for the day I can justify the cost if used for that purpose.
I just spent a month on location shooting a lot of action, running horses up close, etc. The AF works. It’s roughly as quick as my last D850 setup, so very workable. The main limitation are the lenses. If you are shooting action, you really need the linear motor lenses, which make a big difference. The 55 is my fav, but it is not LM. If things start moving quickly, I switch to the 32-64.
Tried to watch the trailer but the first link says "playlist does not exist" and the second link says "unavailable because the youtube channel has been terminated"
how's the rolling shutter for video on this model? i understand in video mode the GFX 100ii doesn't utilize the full sensor, would you say that defeats the purpose of using a larger sensor? or is the quality still worth the compromise?
It’s heavily dependent on which mode you’re in. 8k has pretty bad rolling shutter and crops the sensor, but the 4k modes utilize line skipping or pixel binning to achieve a faster readout of the full sensor-size. There is some rolling shutter, but it’s competitive with something like a Sony FX camera. I was worried about the potential for moire, but in practice the images are clean with loads of detail. Since getting my ii Ive shot a handful of commercials, a couple of fashion campaigns, a music video, and an about to start a feature shooting with 2 of them as the primary cameras. Despite some shortcomings on paper, I think this is a fantastic camera for film/video. The only major fault is the truly terrible delay on the feed from the hdmi port. If you want to operate with an on-board monitor you’ll have to either live with a low-quality feed with the OSD turned on, or a good 1/3 of a second of delay.
Interesting to hear your experience. I’m shooting in DCI 4k most of the time and have no issues with rolling shutters or readout speed to my Shogun 7 Ultra.
@@sneu420 This is an equation: Lens brightness, sensor pixel size, sensor sensitivity. You can upsize any camera like 10x of its size and lens and sensor, if your equation fails at one point you will not have higher signal to noise ratio. Like if this Fuji would have a 800Mega pixel sensor, or a slow lens... would be worse than an apsc camera with a bright lens and modern 8 Mega pixel sensor. Also no camera sucks light in :D It hits it and then uses the lens to direct it towards the sensor.
The native lenses are spectacular, but there are some issues for video. There’re all focus by wire, and depending on the lens you can definitely see the motors working in steps as opposed to moving smoothly when you turn the focus ring. The 55 and 80 arte borderline unusable if racking focus, but the 110, 23, 45-100, and 32-64 are great.
This is an amazing video, well done! What makes me wonder is your comment on AF speed -- is it really better than the X-H2S? I got that one and am OK with it but actually downgraded to APS-C for its speed. If this is anywhere close to the X-H2S, I will be all in. x_X PS: What lens did you have on it? The 32-64? Did not see it immediately.
I said which lens in the video, the 55mm f1.7. So with that combo, it’s pretty darn close to full frame Sony cameras. The speed is t as snappy but it sticks. Now with other lenses, that’s where it gets tough cause I didn’t get to try them but I know some of the gfx lenses are incredibly slow
@@cammackeyah thx man, sorry seems I missed that part. 😅 Yeah the 55 is probably an amazing lens. I used the 80 and 110 and those are excellent 😎 Thx for sharing your work! 💪🏼
Im curious to know if you will incorporate the 100ii in your work flow ? 👉⭕️ REC🔥 Pushing the limits in photography and video for example.. id like to see you rawk the GFX100ii 😮 (Like FUJI themselves, pushing the Medium Format limits)
Here's the problem with these photos. Every single one could have been taken by a dozen other cameras. They look pretty but aren't anything special to the GFX or 100Mpx or even 16-bit. So enjoy the pixel porn but let's stay real.

I got that one and am OK with it but actually downgraded to APS-C for its speed. If this is anywhere close to the X-H2S, I will be all in. x_X PS: What lens did you have on it? The 32-64? Did not see it immediately.
I said which lens in the video, the 55mm f1.7. So with that combo, it’s pretty darn close to full frame Sony cameras. The speed is t as snappy but it sticks. Now with other lenses, that’s where it gets tough cause I didn’t get to try them but I know some of the gfx lenses are incredibly slow
@@cammackeyah thx man, sorry seems I missed that part. 😅 Yeah the 55 is probably an amazing lens. I used the 80 and 110 and those are excellent 😎 Thx for sharing your work! 💪🏼
@@mahdimanesh4221 I miss that 110mm!
I can’t wait to get one
I see you’re in AZ, would love to collab with you! Shoot some BTS for you or something if you need it 🙏🏿
big work. nice.
Epic Video!!!
Great video!
Im sold🤩
Thanks for sharing.
Good stuff man!
I still need big telephotos for my work.
The 250 f/4 is amazing, as is the 110 with the 1.3x adapter. But I would kill for a 135mm f/2 equivalent, regardless of size.
Bruh these shots look nutty 🌰🥵🥵🥵
I spy Kofi Yeboah

"2 to 3 times bigger than FF" what??
He was comparing to the x100v which is apsc.
@@kingsamvisuals how you compare x100v apsc to gfx MF by saying 2 to 3 times bigger than FF if it's apsc vs MF ?
I was exaggerating. Do you have a sense of humor or are you a robot? I personally get along with aliens more than
@@cammackey oh alright. That was funny then. I'm a bot, yes.
Im curious to know if you will incorporate the 100ii in your work flow ?
👉⭕️ REC🔥
Pushing the limits in photography and video for example.. id like to see you rawk the GFX100ii 😮
(Like FUJI themselves, pushing the Medium Format limits)
This video is so good, and photos you took are unreal 🤌🏼🤌🏼
I've seen alot of people who have inpsired me in this video!
It sounds like you're introduce the lens, not the speed of the camera. What a bs.
Uhhhh what
faster ? no, but then again nobody expects it to be
Here's the problem with these photos. Every single one could have been taken by a dozen other cameras. They look pretty but aren't anything special to the GFX or 100Mpx or even 16-bit. So enjoy the pixel porn but let's stay real.
First
This camera would be perfect for me..... someone lend me $7500
