Fuji GFX 100 II hands on street and portraits photography

#Fujifilm #fujigfx100II #fuji
Oh boy! I would love to add this to my holy trinity :) The pictures quality coming out from the new FUJI GFX 100 II is beautiful. And the autofocus it is really improved and the eye / face detection works very good. I'm sold :)

How many times did Octavian say 'pretty' in this video ?

[@Mowikan]

I lost the count 😂

[@OctavianCarare]

Hahaha

[@50.8shop]

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks for the camera and the lens! See you soon again 🤩

[@wearetrackclub]

Lovely shots, Octavian! Great, insightful video 😁👏

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks a lot!

The GFX100 and the GFX100ii deliver the best of the best image quality. I own both bodies and the images that come put of these camera’s are absolutely spectacular! I love the black and white images out of this camera! Please Fujifilm now work on better basic profiles it cost me about a month to search for the right profile to edit my interiorshoots. A good neutral basic profile is something that’s still missing!

[@MirceaMaieru]

Excelent review! Thank you so much!

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks ! Not quite a review but appreciate it:)

Really like the pics that You made with this massive camera 🤩👍👍

[@OctavianCarare]

Thank you Kenneth :) Not my best shots but I love shooting portraits with this camera :)

[@Phantom_gtx]

Great!

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks !

[@rickyjumpman1]

Which len did u use it？

[@OctavianCarare]

55 mm 1.7

[@alexandruflorea8772]

It is indeed a great camera although the price is also great. Black and white shots and the color shots are all very very good. Favorite shots from this episode are at 5:12 and 7:43. You did Fuji a great service😉👏🔥🔥

[@OctavianCarare]

Thank you Alexandru :) Indeed, price is great as well :). Maybe Fuji should offer me a GFX 100 II for couple of months of years ... I would be very happy :)

[@alexandruflorea8772]

@@OctavianCarare that would be very nice 🙂

[@MatthiasDeSater]

Did you try other lenses as well? Would you say the focusing speed of the 55mm1.7 is adequate?

[@OctavianCarare]

Hi Matthias ! Unfortunately I did not try other lenses. I found the 55 mm 1.7 speed more than enough for the focusing speed of the body :)

[@JS-shim]

Great shots, even by your high standards. Great camera and lens.

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks ! Shots could have been better :) The camera is great indeed :)

[@Evrce]

Do you prefer the gfx 100ii or the hassy x2d?

[@OctavianCarare]

I prefer the GFX 100II for the AF and the HASSY for the looks and UI (and image quality) :) . It's a hard choice tbh :)

[@straatmoment]

My first impression is around 8000 euros 😜
The photos then are beautiful !

[@OctavianCarare]

Thanks :) It's not a cheap camera but for a medium format ... it is worth it I guess :)

[@Gamer-Oz]

did you convert to monochrome or shot in camera ?

[@OctavianCarare]

Hi there ! I converted it in post. :)

[@mrlau630]

ala cu acordeonu era romanas de al nostru😅

[@OctavianCarare]

Si cel cu Vioara 🎻

[@paulm8157]

Low key, credible post, Octavian. Talking head audio a tad muffled - not as crisp as usual. You still recovering?
No numbered images this time; proximity (5:00) and shadows (6:50) work well. Cost and ergonomics take this model out of my field. For a high price, I would be disappointed in the AF shortcomings.
(Hope you feel better, Octavian). Cheers!

[@OctavianCarare]

Thank you Paul ! I was having some issues with my volume when recording the video I guess. I did not consider my images worthy of being numbered this time :) hehe. I feel great, thanks ! The AF (for a medium format camera) is VERY GOOD :) I would definitely get one to shoot portraits :D Cheers !

[@sovu9399]

What do you mean by saying it is not a street camera? 🙂, It is very good if not perfect for a street photography, with that insane x proccessor 5 in it. it even does some good sports photography. come on...

[@OctavianCarare]

I mean it's heavy and large and this makes your more visible on the streets. Any camera out there can be a street photography camera, you are correct. But there are some cameras that are suited (designed, intended) for street photography. That's what I meant :) You can shoot street with it, sure ! :) Cheers !
