Absolutely right. Technical specifications can be obtained from the manufacturer's site or some other sources but the main thing is what the camera actually produce
Adam, those images are something to behold. Great inspiration. Both my wife and I love watching your uploads. Entertaining and informative. Thanks again mate.
Its always a pleasure to watch your videos Adam. They are (more than most others) interesting and concise with extensive instruction on the photography that you are doing at the time. Great place to come and learn. Thanks.
Adam, the photos in this vlog are - inspiring. Regardless of the review, I always enjoy your honesty and passion for your landscape photography, because you are always out there, regardless of the weather conditions. I particularly like your end notes which give some idea of your thoughts and where you feel you are going and what you believe you will achieve. I personally wish you the very best of good fortune and really hope you succeed in this venture. If I could I would fund a trip for you to come to Australia and do some landscape photography here, but at this stage my circumstances do not allow it. But who knows, one day ... Hope to see you out there.
Great shots Adam, though I’m putting that down to your talent as much as the camera. But I do think there’s something special about the 645 format, and it’s my go to for analogue landscape photography. What I think you have tested are all the right things, cold weather, long exposure and weather sealing. The detail is pretty phenomenal and there was definitely no discernible noise on any of the images on my screen. An excellent review Adam, very well done indeed and that’s for going out in that weather to test it.
As a panoramic photographer myself (well, didn't take much of panoramas lately) that panorama of yours really rocks. Actually, it gets me back to the basics, because in time, all what I come to think of is, doing full-panoramas (360x180) and I totally forget about focusing on a specific element in the scene (I might skip a scene because one or two elements don't fit or just don't get along with the rest).
Nice one, I just took this bad boy out for a spin at a local portrait meet up...Definitely an awesome piece of kit, probably more suited to landscape or studio environments
Hi Adam, you, like everyone else who are testing/reviewing the GFX50R, are looking at it in isolation. It is part of a system and the R body it is as you say more at home as a walk around even travel camera but for landscape you have to look back to its older brother the GFX 50S which resolves the handling issues you and many others are bemoaning. It has the larger grip and has the benefit of the extra angle of tilt to the screen plus the tilt swivel adapter for the EVF (no hard plastic surround) combined with the ability to use an L Bracket and change batteries on the tripod.
Hmmm......it was never intended to be a comparison video so by definition there is an element of isolation. However my opinion is born from using all the different cameras including the 50S - ruclips.net/video/-JDloDIAi8M/видео.html. I am just sharing my thoughts on the camera as I use it out in the field and commenting on a few things I like and dislike. You're spending £4000 plus lenses in isolation so I would want to know what the compromises are. Bemoaning?? I don't think so. More like loving my landscape photography with a great camera.
Great review, thanks. Something inside me has always wanted a medium format but in reality I've no practical use for it, it would just be for the sake of having more megapixels and a bit more dynamic range. So I was very glad that there were no technical specs in the film!
Good review Adam and the camera looks great, I'm sure it took a lot of work to put the review together. Love those conditions, they can be hard work but you ended up with some great images.
Sat in work at dinner time saw your vlog 20 mins long brilliant I thought ill save it to watch at home , fantastic set of images Adam i too have been out n about freezing but trying to get some images thanks to your very inspiring volgs like this one , its just great to watch and love the fact you show us the images as you work through the story just brilliant .
Lovely review. One of the things that interests me about the GFX 50r is its 'xpan' mode, would have been interested in seeing you use that in the video. one of the things that impressed me, is that you were out shooting in weather that many would not have bothered with & you got some fantastic shots as a result. There's a lesson there on its own!
Nicely made video, lovely scenery, I'm from Scarborough, just a thought about what you said about holding the camera, Fuji make a piece that screws underneath the camera I think and it has a an extra holding grip on the right hand side.
@@Firstmanphotography this doesn't seem to be an isolated case, I have heard two other cases when the lens AF fail under cold weather (Yosemite in the past weeks).
Great real world review and beautiful images! I, too, love "the brick"! Just came back from Death Valley, and the image quality is amazing, including night skies. Keep up the great work and thank you.
Fujifilm should make a rubber eye-cup with peel and stick to put on the eyepiece something that if it starts to wear you can just peel it off and put on a new one. When I look into my camera viewfinder I like to block out everything so I can just concentrate on the composition and make sure I'm not missing something the excitement of thinking you have a good composition can blind you of mistakes you see when reviewing your images later. Thanks for the real world use of the camera.👍
Not even the SONY's A7R line seems to be able capture the emotion that Fuji's cameras can stir in the soul. That Xtrans sensor is really a game changer ... I'm from New England and these scenes remind me if my childhood.
Haven't paid attention, but don't Canikon but notches on their lenshoods as well? Always assumed everybody would do that. (I'm a Pentax-user - we're getting this even on cheap kit-lenses)
Maybe test out the S1R when it comes out? - with their pixel shift hires modes there is plenty of detail to marvel over. With an adapter you could also use your Canon lenses.
Nice review Adam for me Fuji have definitely scored with their APS-C and Medium format. The IQ on all small format cameras was nearly always the same for me even with the crop difference but the Medium format output is very nice although maybe not for event photography just now but for landscapes definitely.But again nice review.
Solches schönes Winterwetter haben wir hier sehr selten, ich bin mit meiner 50r sehr zufrieden, ich würde sie noch viel mehr nutzen wenn sie ein beweglicheres Display hätte , so kann ich HF in Bodennähe nicht realisieren.
I would assume the cold made the auto-focus fail? I have the GFX 50 R and in cold conditions, like below 20 deg F it will start to mess up. Never had that issue in warmer climate or studio work.
I want to test it myself @fujifilm , damn I want to shoot some crazy stuff here in Madison, Wisconsin while I am here and the snow and the ice here is beautiful.
Loved the images Adam in particular the Rydal Water and Roseberry Topping against the dark sky. Was going to ask about the weight but then you covered that. On a separate note after your Lake District workshop are you planning much in terms of workshops for this year?
Thanks mate, I appreciate you always watching. I'm glad you like the images too. Workshop wise I'm just working on a few destinations at the moment. I'll be announcing something in the next 2-3 weeks.
great review Hight price camera, how would it fair to a Nikon D850 … you have some awesome images there I am a Fujifilm fan don't no if I would step up to GFX 50R not yet ……..
Beautiful collection of images there. I see in one of the images in Lightroom you had a sharpening amount of 40 dialled in. Did you do any pre-sharpening or just use the LR sharpening?
I am just wondering - when you say during the long exposure that you don't need the calculator does it mean that the camera itself does the calculations automatically and sets up the right time for the long exposure? So in your case you have selected F16 and 100 ISO - was the time needed set up by the camera itself?
@@Firstmanphotography I am terribly sorry I am still a bit confused. I understand when you say that the camera can see through the filter - it is shown in your great video. What I don't get is the actual set up of the time. The way I set up my long exposures on my 5dmk3 is that I select the fstop then the iso and for the time I use the calculator and set up accordingly - all manual. I see that here you set up your fstop and iso as well but then things get a bit foggy. It seemed to me that something similar was mentioned by you while you were shooting long exposure with XT-3 as well - I must admit I didn't get the actual set up then as well. Sorry if this is obvious I am not quite familiar with Fuji cameras. Do you mind explaining in a bit more detail?
Im bit entirely sure what you are asking. Its as if the filter isn't even on the camera. You just meter the shot (in manual) as you would any other image when there is no filter on....ie using the meter readout, the Histogram and the lcd screen.
A nice review sir. I will message you on FB and Insta about meeting up. That big lens hatch we have on the canon 100-400 great idea. I like my Fuji xt2. I will not be able to meet you at GG s place work is going to stop me going to them.
I have a developing interest in cinematography and photography and have been using my Samsung S9 for 1080p 60fps but want to get a DSLR. I know I want a Canon for autofocus and colouring but not sure what to get. Should I wait for an affordable Canon mirrorless camera to come out like the EOS RP? Or go Canon 77D/80D?
love my mirrorless sony personally, after using friends dslr's i couldn't go back to dslr. Bear in mind colour science only applies if you shoot jpeg (as opposed to raw, where you will manipulate colours in post)
Very nice review with love to photography is in the focus. Very nice pictures. But one thing i don't understand: you constantly use words like "lovely", "great camera", "beautiful" and says you love the logic and direct way of working and see everything at a glance ... and at the end you prefer your canon 5D IV wich is exactly the opposite???
hey Adam! nice video... i found a bit struggle when Tethering on my laptop. the GFX 50s lost connecting for every around 50minutes... i use tetherpro cable forsure. do you find that trouble? nice to know you man!
I obviously didn't mention it as it's particularly niche but connectivity with Fujifilm cameras I find is not as reliable as Canon, both wired and wireless. I've had my problems with Canon in the past to be fair though.
@@Firstmanphotography i agree with you, Canon has the best system in Tether, but the GFX result makes me go back to use again and again :) just want share my comment about GFX tethering system :)
Lovely.The cost of landscape photography seems not far off being a helicopter pilot. Maybe the drone is a good compromise between the two and certainly cheaper than both :-)
NO SPECS? How can you make a good photo without knowing exactly how many pixels per dynamic range focal millimeters you have? Joking aside, great video. Do you sleep in on the hills? In what timeframe is this video taken? I would love to know more about the day it self, how do you decide were to go next when you dont like the pictures your taking. What time do you arrive etc.
Nice review! But I gotta ask.. how hard do you push the viewfinder into your eye? I really couldn't imagine the eye cup actually starting to hurt my eye 🤔
@@Firstmanphotography I've had the 50r since launch, not once have the eye cup hurt me in any way. So I'm kinda thinking you're pushing the camera too hard against your face or something..
Sensor is amazing, glass is amazing, camera is as butt-ugly as it gets. Just an oversized crop sensor cam. Uncomfortable to hold, and buttons for tiny fingers...great for the designers but not for us with normal/large hands. This is where Hasselblad totally got it right with the design, if they only completed it with a proper EVF and a couple other things. Your images in this video are just stunning.
Nice review and lovely images - Thanks! Interested that you're still using Lightroom - will you be doing a Capture One update? - maybe the GFX files would be an interesting case study?
You’ve got to be kidding me right? Not enough of an upgrade from a crappy Canon?! Lol. I own the 50r and various lenses. I no longer own my Nikon D800e’s and the associated lenses, especially since going Fuji in 2012.
Still lots of money. I suppose mirrorless cameras will completely replace DSLR's. In any event your episodes are wonderful and I will just have to save my pennies.
I paid 4K just for my Leica M9 5 years again it has even less than the 50R.. Its all about perspective...Just wait a couple of years here 50R will be in the 2K range done@@thomaskauffman983
Adam, love your channel! You are a more down to earth, real, guy than a lot of the other RUclipsrs. Keep on, keeping on!
Thanks Travis. Really appreciate that.
Absolutely right. Technical specifications can be obtained from the manufacturer's site or some other sources but the main thing is what the camera actually produce
Adam, those images are something to behold. Great inspiration.

Not that I have much tolerance for cold in my old age but I was wondering how cold was it when the auto-focus started to fail?
I reckon about -3 or -4. The stated temp for the camera is -10. The auto focus worked all other times though.

Can you do a video explaining what else you do apart from just these brilliant RUclips videos🤔👍🔥❄️❄️
Great camera fantastic images which lens you think is the best for landscape with gfx-r camera ?
Thank you for real world review maybe the gfx 50s is for me or sony a7riv ?
That error message is a typical defective issue for the 32-64mm lens. You may want to send back for exchange.

Lovely video as ever Adam. Where is the beach that you were on? Thanks.
I want to test it myself @fujifilm , damn I want to shoot some crazy stuff here in Madison, Wisconsin while I am here and the snow and the ice here is beautiful.
Nice work, indeed.. Did you use Fuji lenses exclusively or an adapter of some kind to mount Canon lenses as well..??
Adam, would you fancy try Sony a7iii for landscape photography?
Awesome work, just wanted to mention that Lr doe,sn't render Fuji pictures very well. capture one does a dramatically better job with Fujifilm raw
Yeah. Is that still the case? I've tested that now with a variety of fuji cameras and it hasn't been my experience.
The Fujifilm medium format cameras have bayer sensors, not x-trans
Lr is now just as good as capture one for x trans .
So no hot spots on long exposure ? Did you use long exposure noise reduction or it s not necessary ?
love for fuji make a GFX25r megapixel medium format for color my Df produce better colour over my D800E
Great stuff!
Thanks.

Smaller, cheaper. Enough said
Adam, did you review that backpack you have? It sort of looks uncomfortable to me but you keep using it so it has to be good.
Beautiful collection of images there. I see in one of the images in Lightroom you had a sharpening amount of 40 dialled in. Did you do any pre-sharpening or just use the LR sharpening?

Yes they can be turned off. Menu -> Wrench -> Sound Set-up -> Self-Timer Beep Vol. -> OFF

Hi Adam
Great shoots like always 😉
Can You give me location for that Single mountain from Your pictures I would like visit that place 😉
What do you think of the GFX R for a photojournalist?
Overkill. If you want to go with fuji the xt3 is much less conspicuous.
Lovely.The cost of landscape photography seems not far off being a helicopter pilot. Maybe the drone is a good compromise between the two and certainly cheaper than both :-)

5D4 for vlogging? Goof god. is your arm twice the size as it was when you started?
I think the batteries suffer in the cold. Some mountain extreme guys keep the batteries inside their clothing when not taking photos.
Nice review! But I gotta ask.. how hard do you push the viewfinder into your eye? I really couldn't imagine the eye cup actually starting to hurt my eye 🤔
Either could I until I tested this camera. There's a good reason all other cameras have a squishy rubber bit around the viewfinder.
@@Firstmanphotography I've had the 50r since launch, not once have the eye cup hurt me in any way. So I'm kinda thinking you're pushing the camera too hard against your face or something..

Hey! Great video! Can you post some raw files so i can try to tweak them in c1?
Shuuuuush don't wake the sheep up lol. Good vlog with what looks a great camera.
it's a nice APS medium format camera. but the 50s has a more usable flex viewfinder.
fyi: fuji makes lenses for hasselblad and asia owns hasselblad.
Yes. I'd go with the 50R if that's the only reason though at £2000 cheaper.
You’ve got to be kidding me right? Not enough of an upgrade from a crappy Canon?! Lol. I own the 50r and various lenses. I no longer own my Nikon D800e’s and the associated lenses, especially since going Fuji in 2012.
Nice episode! At $6000.00 US for the body and lens it is too much not to offer everything. :(
Thomas Kauffman which cameras offer everything?
1. Price is 5k with 63mm lens 2. less is more
Still lots of money. I suppose mirrorless cameras will completely replace DSLR's. In any event your episodes are wonderful and I will just have to save my pennies.
I paid 4K just for my Leica M9 5 years again it has even less than the 50R.. Its all about perspective...Just wait a couple of years here 50R will be in the 2K range done@@thomaskauffman983
overkill.. sold mine.. back to basics
Does Lightroom still give the worms artifacts on the images from this camera when sharpening? Like all the other X-trans cams.
It does not use x-trans.
Was watching the review all the way until the point where you said that Fuji sent you the camera to review it. You lost me there, completely.
