    Between GFX, XH and XT they really do hit so many niche markets with their products. I love Fuji even though I own some Canon gear. The community is just so unique and creative

    Picked up the x100v during the pandemic 2020 and then the xt4 last year and both are unbelievable. Makes photography fun again. The amazing colors out of camera let you focus on composition. Keep the Fuji content !

    I love Fuji too but they will never go FF. They don’t have the financial wherewithal to go toe to toe with Sony and Canon in that arena. That’s why they came out with the GF line. They leap-frogged FF into another niche category.

    • @TheWutangclan1995
      @TheWutangclan1995 Год назад +9

      The gfx line is their ff camera line. Yes it’s medium format but that’s the point. Every camera manufacturer already have a full frame but no medium format so I think it was smart for Fuji to compete with hasselblad and phase one, as both brands are extremely expensive and offers an affordable option when a 40k phase one system is out of the question.

      I think this is true, and, if so, it's hella smart, too. Fuji strategists are on point.

    Shooting with the X100V myself those images just have such a unique distinctive look. Yet that GFX 100s sensor is something else. I love that incredible depth and maturity those images convey.

    A series of great images thrown our way with such nonchalance! Good video, I love how you make the night-time outside-looking-in shots so warm and inviting. I'd love a GFX but alas, money. I am however completely and utterly in love with the X100V, which I never leave home without.

  • @jaychow94
    @jaychow94 Год назад +6

    If Fuji are to do full frame, an update to the X100V but with a full frame sensor would be my choice, I don't see them bringing out a whole new range of lenses and I'd rather they focused on bringing medium format to the same level of performance with autofocus and processing as they have with the XH2.

  • @domidarko1166
    @domidarko1166 Год назад

    Every video is so beautiful. I've been with Fuji for just over 6 years now and they inspire me to shoot. Started with the X100T. Now have the XT3 with the F2 trinity but planning to get a GFX as I focus on landscape and low light. Those new WR lenses keep calling me though.
    I feel like APSC is the sweet spot for most people unless you need supreme detail, colour depth and dynamic range for landscape or the tones and highlight rolloff for portrait etc.

  • @lazsmith
    @lazsmith Год назад +9

    couldn't agree more - I recently shot a campaign with the gfx100s and aside from the MASSIVE files and slower autofocus I would use it every single shoot. That being said, I've been an R5 shooter for years and I've just bought the X-H2 to replace the R5 for my professional stills work (mainly fashion) and I've gotta say, I can't see a difference between full frame and APS-C the way these new cameras are performing.
    Have you tried out to the new X-H2? Would love your thoughts on it!

    Great images. I've been shooting with the GFX 50S for 4 years now, and love Fujifilm as well. If I may ask, what presets or simulations are you using on your images? Love the colors, tone and mood.

  • @Deetroiter

    I usually use Pentax FF and Leica cameras, but after recently trying and getting a Fuji xpro 3…those Pentax and Leica cameras have just sat in their bags. There’s just something really fun and enjoyable about using the Fuji, which is so much more important to me than some camera or lens specs on paper.

  • @edshotsdotcodotuk
    @edshotsdotcodotuk Год назад +1

    Fuji have stated a few times that they won't go full frame as they see the portability of APSC being a big draw and the larger sensor of the GFX system being the better way to go for extra detail and resolving power. As others have pointed out a FF X100 would be good and as Sony have left their RX1 models hanging then it could be possible to have a fixed lens FF compact from Fuji.

  • @jdpst20
    @jdpst20 Год назад

    I’ve been a Fuji shooter since xt1 then strictly film with Mamiya 645 pro, then canon 5diii, 1Dxii, back now to XT3, but also love my newly squired 5Dii and 1n 35mm and Hasselblad 500cm. Never selling the cm, and will most likely keep the xt3 to shoot occasional video as I love the 4k and don’t need anything more. I’m considering the GFX50s/r as my next buy to get into DMF. I shoot anything and everything mainly personally stuff, travel, landscape, portraits, with some occasional paid work. Would you think it be better to buy into a newer system with the 100s or 100 with a bit better AF and features or the older 50 version? I would mainly rely on xt3 for fast AF work and GFX for the slower stuff but I do love the resolution capabilities of the 100, but the price of the 50 is more appealing. I think I could warrant the cost of the 100 my being more marketable to clients over the 50 and have more cropping composition options.

    Fuji aren't going to move into the full-frame market it's far to crowded, so are you going to try Fuji's new X-H2?

  • @silentrunning3100
    @silentrunning3100 Год назад

    Would love to hear you advance the discussion past the obviously large resolution to a focus on what these cameras offer as tools for advanced imaging. Seeing that the range of optics has been expanded quite a bit, aside from color science what major advantages does this offer over something like a Hass? Would you use this camera for scanning? I'm also curious to hear what Thomas would think of a camera like the 100S for video..
    personally, my Q2 was the most convenient for it's versatility.. though I'll say the Leica ecosystem is not as expansive as Fuji and if anything it's the one major downside to shooting Leica, their hybrids just aren't as good for LOG video(or at least enough to justify the price tag)
    I think I'll shift to the 14 Pro Max for snapshots, and dedicate a full fledge DMF camera to the heavier workloads

    I would love a full frame version of the X100V, but I don’t see Fujifilm doing that, as that would be the only full frame camera. Now, if they came out with. G100, a slightly larger X100V with a medium format sensor, that thing would never be on shelves depending on the cost. I would be all over that.
