    I appreciate the comparisons and the "for a very long time" plug. Spending that kind of money for a fleeting experience window is scary.

      I completely agree, there have been some digital cameras that have been "milestones" canon 5D and Sony ARIII among them for checking so many boxes and doing so many things so well. As tech improves faster and faster the advancement in sensor tech seems to get smaller and more fine tuned and a lot of improvement goes to software and AI (around the actual sensor) which is all great but when it comes to IQ, I am just not really sure this latest GFX series will be unstated too soon.

    Imagine Fuji *somehow* making a fixed lens (relatively) small medium format with 40/45mm f2.

      I loved my 690 and 645 in the film days, Sony made the RX? Full frame fixed which was pretty great, I am really hoping for a fixed lens GFX with a 40 but I do know it will definitely not be f2, probably more like f 4.5 to make it compact, move the finder to the side, maybe even pop up like the Sony….one can dream!

    How much more faster and accurate is the gfx 100ii after the firmware update

    • @paulschefz
      @paulschefz  Před 2 měsíci +1

      AFAIK The firmware update for the GFX 100II only fixed an issue with the 20-35, a lens I own and use all the time and never experienced. But I heard about unreliable slow AF performance? It was only with that lens and now it’s fixed. Fuji is usually great about getting fixing issues and improving product.

    For me the slightly smaller form factor is great 👍
    The 50s ii has been a fantastic camera yes it's slow but it's amazing camera still

      I agree, I think the size of all GFX bodies is just right, I actually just got the grip for the 100II but returned it, makes the camera too big.

    I love my gfx100s. I think this is my last camera. 100 megapixels is enough for all types of shooting, with a margin. Batteries run out quickly in *.raw, I have 5 batteries, maybe it’s worth buying a power bank. All that remains is to buy more Fujinon lenses; used ones will become cheaper over time.
    The video doesn't interest me at all. You were right in saying that there are special video cameras for this, which are even cheaper.

    • @paulschefz
      @paulschefz  Před 2 měsíci

      100s is still a great camera and I agree with everything you say. I think I am going through my batteries faster with the 100II compared to the 100s, which makes sense because of faster processor and (probably) more power hungry screens. When shooting tethered I let the MacBook power the camera, running around I just always have 2 batteries with me, I have never gone through 3 in a day, not sure I would want to deal with power bank and cable.I think the upgrade path is for GFX 50, other then that money is definitely well (better) spent on lenses!

      ​@@paulschefz I am very afraid that the camera will turn off at the moment I need. Therefore, as soon as the red low level icon appears, I change the battery. When I come home, I discover that each battery still has 20-30-40% of energy left. The camera shows the remainder inaccurately due to dashes. It would be nice if they set digital percentage of remaining energy.
