  • In this video we compare the Fujifilm GF 55mm f/1.7 with the GF 80mm f/1.7.
    Both lenses are perfect for a variety of genres, but shine when it comes to landscape work, portraiture, and weddings.
    All images were shot on the Fujifilm GFX 100 II and edited by me in Lightroom.
    Let me know what YOU think! I can't wait to hear from you in the comments.

    Very nice comparison and beautiful portraits. I wonder if you have also used a 100S for weddings and portraits before 100II and if so, what what were your thoughts. I can hardly afford getting into GFX right now but looking at some used 100S options to at least be able to test the waters.

    Great work and thank you for making this video. I've been shooting weddings on the GFX since 2021 and even though it's slower than say a Nikon, I love the quality and character. My go-to lenses have been the 45 2.8 and the 80 1.7 but just added the 55 1.7 and it's fantastic. I was thinking of selling my 80 but you confirmed my thoughts that it is just so magical for close portraits on a wedding day.

    Amazing work! Can you made a comparison video between the r5 and gfx100II?🙏

    Great video and very informative. I was also wondering what brand is your camera bag? It looks a great size!

    awesome video. Where the 55 shines in my opinion is full body shots in large environments, it makes the subject really pop like a mini brenizer :)

    I've been watching your videos this days, and i love to find someone who owns a r5 and gfx100ii, because i own the r5 but i want so bad to go for the gfx!!! Im a fuji user for personal photography, i use xt5 .. and love fuji!!
    I would love if you make a video of the comparison of the 2 cameras and lenses, like a mix of your review of the 50mm & 85 rf and this video, that would definetly be amazing

    Is that the 50s ii camera? I am thinking of purchasing a gfx camera in the not too distant future and those two lenses would be great too! Good video!

    The 80 is so good when I had it with the 100S. It was brief though and I wanted it back. When the 100ii was brought out, I just lost it and sold my Nikon Z equipment to get one, the 80 and the 250. Those two will cover a lot. Seeing how the 100ii made the 100-200 GF lens that much better, I’m excited to try the 80 very soon. I want the 55 to use in salsa but the 80 will have to do for now. It’s funny you can get the 80 and the 55 for the price of the Hasselblad 80

      It's been really fun to test. It's totally an incredible system, but still figuring out how I would fit it in my workflow. Thank you for watching!

      Me too!! I shoot weddings but really don't think the extra resolution would do anything for my work. It's just so cool! haha

    Lovely! Have you tried the 110 vs 80?

  • @roxikoko3744
    @roxikoko3744 Před 4 měsíci

    Nice combo. One is a wide 50mm equiv and the other is a long 50mm equiv

  • @user-jp9js9th8o
    @user-jp9js9th8o Před 3 měsíci

    for me personally the 55 = 42,x mm equiv. lens is the true "cinema" lens for everyday photography without more stark 3d compression of the 80 mm lens... in a certain way both lens are an interpretation of the normal focus length of sound 50 mm equiv. .. one advantage of the 55 mm is its better and more even performance in the edges and corners
