- Fujifilm GFX 50R with vintage lenses
The Fujifilm GFX 50R is an expensive medium format camera, with expensive medium format lenses. They're big and cumbersome too. But there are some vintage alternatives thankfully, such as the Tokina 70-210mm and the Minolta 50mm 1.4. Which you might see in this video. Or maybe not. I'll leave that as a surprise for you.

Best introduction to a photography blog I've ever seen.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Great sense of humor, young man
Thank you for the good laugh, you have a great sense of humor! I bought a GFX 50r yesterday and am looking forward to it’s delivery. I can’t afford any lenses for it yet (really can’t afford the camera either 🫠) but I have a few lenses I can adapt so I’ll put what little money I have left into an adapter or 2. Especially looking forward to trying my Canon 50 1.2 ltm which I have an ltm to M adapter for already so just need an M to GF adapter… I hope this works. But anyway just wanted to say great video and your dry humor made my day!
Love the x pan crop, and your humour!
Beautiful shots mate, they're really amazing! 💯💖
Thank you, appreciate you watching pal.
Worth a like and a subscribe, great narration and better photos, Keep it up.
Laughed out loud. Especially about the 'Lost Boys'.😂
Kinda sorry that I sold the 35-70 now. Really enjoyed the vid and images. Looking forward to your next one. 👍
Glad you enjoy it mate.
I love that lens simply because it’s so small for medium format. Got it in a sale early this year too for £400 so it was a no brainer.
Would’ve made-do with vintage primes otherwise.
Awesome shots and a fun video, thank you! I use Minolta's MC 58/1.4, MD 45/2 and MD 28/2.8 on GFX without hard vignetting. I started with the 50/1.4 as well but I wasn't happy with cropping away that much of the picture..
You have exactly the same lenses I do.
I think the 1.4 was vingetting way harder because of how little light there was. Otherwise I can get away with a smaller crop. The 45mm f2 performs better in this regard though.
@@adamblack9837 I switched from the 50/1.4 to the older 58/1.4, that one is totally vignette-free.
I have some more Minolta MC/MD lenses, but they all don't work that well with the GFX sensor.
@@MrRoRoWe Hey bro, do you have MC/MD 100/2.5 or it-like tele lenses? I wonder does it works on GFX system.
@@blaseqq1181 I only have the 135/3.5, that is vignetting like hell.
@@MrRoRoWe 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for saving me 20$.
Minolta MD 50/1.7, 45/2 both covers 44x33 sensors pretty well. In fact theres a handy list of all full-frame lenses that covers 4433 made by some dude on the forum.
I’ve got the 45mm f2 so I’ll have to give that a whirl. The 50mm 1.7 is very easy to find too so that’s one to bear in mind, thank you.
The images look very film like. Which I adore
Just came across this video today for some reason. Funnily enough I also use the Tokina 70-210 on my 50R! It's mostly ideal (and SUPER lightweight for its functionality) but is a little soft in the corners when using it uncropped. I have it in a K mount. I got it from a chap on Facebook Marketplace for about $AUD70. I also use an Asahi Pentax Super Takumar 50 1.4, and a Zeiss Flek 35 2.4. The only native lens I use is the GF 35-70. I also occasionally use a Canon 16-35 4 L (only from about 19mm thought as wider than that has mechanical vignetting).
Try Canon EF lenses, particularly the 40mm f2.8. Cheap as chips and beautiful images. But at the end of the day it's the content that counts.
Entertaining loved the ironie
You are a star of the understated. Have you considerd a challenge of seeing how to cope with photography in sunny places? Could you subdue your natural optimism in such circumstances?
Another Southport Fuji shooter👍
Like the video, but perhaps I could suggest you to add in some dry humour as well to mix things up a bit. People like that.
I disagree, it can sometimes feel out of place and either way It’s his prerogative
I couldn’t disagree more with your statement
The sensors on both the Fuji X series, are CMOS, like the GFX, which uses a Bayer filter array.
Great shots there .I bought the 100s with the 35-70 .I had a samyang 135f2 from my nikon gear (crazy sharp lens) so i bought a second hand adaptor .It is absolutly stunning and on the gfx sensor you effectivle get 135mm X 0.79 and f2 x 0.79 which equates to a105 f1.4 respectivly give or take a .5 mm No vingnetting and you end up with a lens matching and in bokeah outdooing the 110 gf fuji .I have the cine version .It's a heavy ba..t..d but it really gives thet 3d iq and even @f2 it really shines. The cine version is the better option as it's clickless apeture and 250 smoleys cheaper than a used digital slr model used.
Comedy gold!! 😄
I don't know much about old lenses.. can you do more about them and manual focus with them? have you looked for old medium format lenses?
Yeah there are some old medium format lenses from companies like Pentax and Mamiya. They’re often just as expensive as a cheap native prime though.
Ultimately it depends what type of lens you want.
As for manual focus, you just use focus peaking. The in-focus parts of the image are highlighted in a colour of your choice.
Good one mate.Vintage glass is the way.Likes from Slovakia.Btw..Good jokes..almost :D
“As the sun goes down, it’s just a matter of time before I get mugged” 😅
Holy shit I have nose coffee all over my keyboard after watching this video. You should have warned me not to eat or drink while watching this video.
Pretty dumb qiestion but which transition did you use to make the photos bounce when you show them? I been looking for a little something for when I show photos on my videos and that seems nice and low profile
So where and which are the shots with the vintage lenses? Confused.
The Leica R 100mm f2.8 apo macro works as good as the GF120mm f4 macro, and if you want 1:1 macro the Leica is much better, with extension tube or even better with the elpro
The GFX sensor is 4 XT-4 X sensors strapped together. So the Fuji recipes work a charm.
Try getting some old medium format glass, works a charm
No, the GFX sensor is the same as the Pentax 645Z, the sensor uses a Bayer matrix.
@russellbaston974 my mistake. It's also thr same sensor as the similar generation Phase One's
i recommend the Vivitar 70-210mm f2.8-4 for the Minolta mount and Minolta 24-35mm and 35-70mm f3.5 zooms.
That vivitar zoom is ok but weights a ton. Used inly once.
Hey bro, does 35-70mm f3.5 cover the full sensor? I can't find an example pic about it.
For low light you might look into the new Chinese manual lenses, Mitakon 65/1.4 or 7artisans, ttartisan in M mount, there’s 75/1.25 and 50/0.95, pricy though
2:03 I don't think your adapter is supposed to rotate WITH the lens. Living on the edge, are we?
Is the wide aspect ratio an internal setting or a post-process crop?
It’s a 65:24 XPan setting you can use in camera.
"because sometimes it takes more than the entire solar system swirling into the void of space to impress me"... 1) could we get a check on that? 2) populous says;... same my guy, same.
I would find it more enjoyable if you calm down a touch. You seem to be hyper-active and your voice is jumping all over the place. Other than that I find your images to be quite stunning. Maybe take a Xanax?
Nice channel! I enjoy your narrative. Sub’d and happy to find your channel.
I know nothing so : Brightin Star 35mm F0.95
😅
Pity you didn't get a shot of a seagull standing on top of the other two seagulls. Keep trying.
