Picked up the 50Sii with the 35-70 and ~7500 clicks for $2000 even. Couldn't refuse. Local wedding 'tog upgraded to a 100. Sold my Sony gear to cover it. Haven't looked back.
Gotta say, as a dad/hobbyist 'tog who *does not* earn money from photography, the 50Sii is a BEAST! People who say "oh it's too much for amateurs, you won't see the difference" *haven't actually shot one and seen the spectacular output*
Such a good complement to my X100V. It seems to be only gear heads online who say "oh it's outdated, etc etc"... but they don't realize a lot of pros are shooting 6-8-10 year old digital bodies and get by *JUST fine*.
Would I shoot wildlife or F1 racing or baseball with it? No. For candid shots of adult humans and my kiddos, even when they're running at the playground, it's utterly fine.
Bought it a few weeks ago, and I'm putting it through it's pacing before I write my review. Theo is spot on when he talks about value and bang for your buck, I shot an assignment for a client, and they ended up calling me back to tell me how great the files were that came out of it. As someone who's coming to this from a 5DsR, I can tell you it's NIGHT AND DAY.
@@michaelfloyd3651 Get the Fuji with the rebates going on right now. Nothing can touch the medium format sensor. A guy who's got both the M11 and 50S II told me, the Fuji's just so much better IQ wise. It's not megapixels, it's sensor size. It'll save you a lot of money too, over the Leica. I got my first GFX on Friday, and the files are insanely good. So good, that I can't imagine the 100S offering anything more IQ wise.
@@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy I’m definitely leaning that direction. I just feel that the Leica holds its value better but at the end of I want the better IQ. Thanks for the response.
Agreed just got mine GFX50sii just in 3200$
😊
@@michaelfloyd3651 wow cooool wife
I got this same combo on Friday, and yea it's a beast. I don't know that after seeing this image quality, that I could ever go back to anything else. The amount of effective pixel data it captures is astounding. I say "effective pixel data" because the 40mp X-H2 with nearly the same horizontal resolution, can't hold a candle to this GFX 50S II, proving that it really is sensor size and not megapixels that matter. Every pixel that's captured, is better. I sent back the X-H2, and I'll keep my X-T3 for shooting Ebay photos, so I can sell all my other cameras and buy more GFX lenses. One interesting benefit to this sensor that nobody ever mentions, is it's lack of potential banding issues on account of there being no phase detect sensor rows, and because of the microlens design, people who have compared both side by side, actually said this 50S II is sharper than the 100S. So if you're a landscape, studio, or product shooter and don't need/want fast eye-detect autofocus, and half the RAW file size, this may be your camera. I only have this one though, so I can't compare to the 100S yet.
This is the antithesis of every other camera review channel and I love it
Hi Ken
Thank you for an excellent video I’ve just bought A GFX 100 for £3600 this camera is amazing and excellent value for money I cannot believe it was £10,000. Two years ago. I have tried the Fuji gfx 50 s ii Also I’d liked it you really can’t go wrong which ever one you choose
Thanks once again Ken for your valued comments on all things Fuji. Have been using this camera for the last couple of months after upgrading from the Fuji xt3 which I’m still keeping. Absolutely enjoying the process of taking images with this camera, the image quality and the ability to crop where necessary is fabulous. As with all things Fuji, it’s the system that keeps on giving.
Hi Ken. Thank you so much for this and all you videos. I’ve been watching you for years and you are consistently ahead of the market and don’t get swayed by hype. I’m taking the leap into fine art photography and was looking at the D850, but with this camera plus lens at so close a price…I think I’ve now found my new camera. Thanks again. Take care and see you on the next video.
So nice to see a camera review from you again. Thanks for your thoughtful analysis.
Ha ha travel camera. I used to haul my Mamiya C330 through customs. When I got the Mamiya 6, I could not see straight. This camera is awesome. Nothing else to say.
I remember doing hand hold on my pentax 6x7 by lifting the mirror right before pushing shutter button, old school ibis lol.
Now what the world needs is a guide to lenses which can best be adapted to this camera....and since you have about a zillion lenses, you would be the man to do this. :)
Very good review. Actually the best. U should be the benchmark for any reviewer out there.
Thanks Ken for your short and focused review on Fujifilm GFX Body, I came to know your channel not so long and trust me I love your thoughts and views on any photography specially on 50sii 💥👌. I did nt get the chance to shoot yet because just ordered 1 😮 with 63mm lens. N can’t wait to make a imaging process as we use to do with film as medium ❤. Coming from film photography BG then Nikon DSLR “+ old glass” it’s been couple of years struggling with medium format film processing issues etc if you’re living not in US.
Anyways Idk the reason why people complaining about speed and fast process time etc blah blah blahhhh. Seriously 😡 if someone comparing medium format photography so it’s all about creating/making image and enjoy the journey or processing it’s nothing to do with fast pace technology. On the other hands how many out their crafting/creating/enjoying the process not crazy about clicking 1000000 of the image and post online . “I feel sorry for them” off-course there’re group of people doing great job with technology and express the beauty of imaging process. Secondly thanks to Fujifilm who made my dreams come true in the form of GFX 50sii body. 👌🙏 you plz keep it up with your feedback on photography & equipment 😊🙏👍🥜. My body of work based on product, portraits and land-escape photography.
Great job Ken 👍
N off course thanks giving is the best time to shop for equipment.
we need this in full frame format. I almost made the switch to the 50S but problem is you can't have an ultra fast ULTRA wide lens on the system. it's none-existing. as a landscape photographer, equivalent to at LEAST 14mm on full frame is ESSENTIAL to my work. I've even had a long discussion over the phone with Fuji but they assured me that it's not going to be possible to build what I need. so definitely not for the ones who need a 2.8 or faster ultra wide lens. They still didn't answer one question: WHY THE HELL do they not make a full frame body with the same features???????????
Bcuz it’d cannibalize their apsc line up. MF is a big jump from apsc and have a different customer segment.
@@bunmeng007 WHAT? lol makes no sense, creating a solid product that will bring you a WHOLE new series of customers doesn't mean you're "cannibalizing" your other products. they're just missing out. it's not a "jump" it's called variety.
The 50S is a full frame body with medium sensor…gfx medium format is a favourite among landscape photographers
@@chrisvig123 you obviously didn't red my comment properly
😭 wah wah wah
I agree 100% with your comments. I know the self proclaimed NikonGuy Matt Grainger doesn’t.
Great review. I completely agree. Portraits. Landscape. Product!!
I’m going to add the canon 100-400 v2 and sell my fx 100-400
So my landscape / wildlife / portrait kit will be:
Gfx 100S
20-35 (23 till zoom comes out)
35-70
80f1.7
Canon 100-400 with 1.4
Since the canon focuses to 36 inches, it is great for quasi macro shots.
I would not use this set up for running cheetahs, but most of my fx 100-400 are of relatively stationery critters.
Bottom line this is a one bag does it all set up.
For architecture I add laowa 15mm shift, canon 24 shift, Pentax 45-85 with TS adapter in a small add on bag.
GFX can’t be beat!!!
Thanks for review.
For evening / in door parties I do add the GF 45mm.
Fuji has been making medium format cameras for decades and the gfx really reflects that.
Hey Ken, I'd love to know how you found the auto focus on this camera compared to the 100s ? It's the main thing holding me back from potentially buying a 50s ii knowing that theres a better system on the 100 and 100s, thanks
The focus on this system is a generation behind the 100S …if focus speed and accuracy is critical you will find it a bit slow…for most medium format camera users focus is not that critical 😯
@@chrisvig123 yeah and most of gfx users are using vintage glass (manual lenses) . I own gfx 100 and 50s and I don’t have a single autofocus lens lol .
Quite impressive. Now all it needs is a tilt shift lens. It would be great for real estate photographers too.
I think they have a tilt shift on the planned product map. I don't remember for sure though.
thats coming though
The Nikon pc-e lenses work perfectly well.
Hi,Any new video about the new gfx? Glad to see if there is any.
Any idea how get aperture and shutter speed to display on top lcd when in Aperture priority mode?
I love the market share fuji goes for. I love my xt4. I just got the 33 1.4 in and I love it so far. If you're ever in the NJ area Ken, you're welcome to try it.
I plan to use adapted Zeiss ZE lenses. How does this compare to the canon R5 or Leica SL2 in terms of sharpness and color rendering? Anyone?
I’ve sort of had a Jones for the Hasselblad x1d2, but without image stabilization, I don’t feel it’s as good as this Fuji.
The giant earth mover of photography 😎
Hello Ken.
I have a question, please, about the Fuji GFX System sensor. Is there any difference between the GFX 50mpx and the 100mpx sensor regarding the sensor's capacity in low light shooting? Noise, colour accuracy, or is it negligible? Which sensor (mpx) you will recommend for low light shooting conditions. Thank you!
Thanks for review. Think I’m going to get one
I've seen used GFX cameras are now coming down to around $2k. I might have to pick one up soon for that price.
Hey Ken, in 2017 you had great things to say about the nikon d850 compared to the GFX. It seems as though you don't see the comparison as particularly relevant any more, and I am just curious to know what you would say about it in 2021 to someone who particularly likes using the nikon 180mm f/2.8 for portraits. It is difficult to like the idea that the expense of the gfx equivalent would be worth the price difference and the weight and bulk difference as well. I would certainly be curious to know your thoughts. Thanks for all the great gear recommendations and info over the years! Chad L.
D850 is still awesome, nothings changed
@@KenTheoriaApophasis salamu aleikhom friend.
I'm the biggest fan. And that's an undeniable fact!!
What does 35mm crop mode do on a native GFX lens? Say you had the 80mm F/1.7 which works out to be a 63mm F/1.3 in full frame terms. Does that 35mm crop mode turn the lens into a true 80mm F/1.7?
Medium format for masses! Next year, I think will be the year I go Fuji with both X and GF systems! I bet Ansel Adams wishes he were born in the late 20th century!
Great video 📹
Hey I’m looking for a decent lens for my Nikon D5000, I am thinking something like a 18-200, do you have any experience with the kit lens in that focal range or would you recommend something else, my main use is out door photography, 5 to 100 yards or so.
Its June 2024, In Canada I can buy that combo brand new for $4500 CAD, it truly is an absolute bargain. However, I've looked at the used market in Japan and I can get the original GFX 100, a big clunky 102 megapixel camera for $4000 CAD. I've seen the images from that camera and they are fantastic....what to do..??
You do a great job on your videos. You have taugt me a lot.
Hi Ken, I been watching your channel for some time and I have a confession.
I have ignore you talking about the Fuji MF until I want to move to MF.
After sometime the Hasselblad X2D came out with there mirrorless MF and spark my interest until I saw the price and recently Fuji MF came to mind and I remember Ken been talking about how Fuji MF are amazingly superb quality, medium format Camera ever. I should have known better you know your stuff.
My apologies. Fuji GFX 50sii with 45-100mm f/4 would perfect for what I do (portrait, photography, indoor studio).
Thanks buddy.
It’s so nice to see you in such a positive light and it’s a relief to agree with everything you said! Two requests: I am a Fuji owner but I look at the Hassleblad equivalent and wonder if it’s worth the extra? Second request: as you said, no one will ever complain about the quality from the 50Mpix sensor, but could you discuss how the 100Mpix Fuji sensor manages less noise using smaller ‘pixels’ please? It just seems mighty impressive to me.
Great great review. I just got my SII and love it.
Have you tried F mount adapters on GFX cameras? I have a large investment in FX Nikkor glass.
I just got a 50sii. Trying to decide what lens to go for.. should I go 110 or 80?
Good man, thanks. What would it take for you to choose the GFX 100S over this one?
for it to be the same price. ROFL...... this camera is EPIC
@@KenTheoriaApophasis right on,, thanks man
Fantastic review 👌 is the gfx50r still a good buy used? Compared to the 50sii? Considering it 2k cheaper
Yes, absolutely
@@KenTheoriaApophasis I have just bought my 1st gfx camera the 50r together with the gfx 45mm f2.8 upon your great honest reviews 👌
Ken - How do you like this model compared to your 50r which is now much cheaper? Do you miss the dials on the 50r or do you find the display more helpful? Also - if one already has the 45-100 would you still recommend the 35-70?
50R is discontinued now
@@KenTheoriaApophasis Well I know the 50r is discontinues - but they are still readily available and some people may consider “upgrading” to this IBIS model. So what do you think?
He didn't answer your question did he? Only to be expected from him these days 🙄
@@chloescanlon1107 that is correct and I don't understand why. It is not a controversial question or anything. Just asking for his opinion. I have the 50R and am thinking about upgrading just to get IBIS - so the question is relevant for alot of existing 50R owners.
So the GFX 100s would not be a little better?
I love this camera
Hello Ken: I love your camera and lens reviews. Please review the X-T5 camera. Please review the new Fujifilm 30mm macro lens and the new generation of X series lenses.
sure, call fuji and tell em to send me one
Hey brutha. I'm looking to enter into photography. Stills of nature, the sky, skylines. I also want to record my UA-cam videos with it. What would you recommend?
Lastly, would it be better to buy a better used camera from like a pawn shop, or a lesser camera brand new from a retailer? I think I remember you saying never buy used.
Is that cuz shutter life?
@@saucelove so fujifilm? I was hoping for brand and model.. a good balance of quality and price.
@@Vaga-Bard There's a pro in Spain who does wonderful videos on UA-cam. He uses a Canon M50 and GoPro 5. It's not the camera dude.
You need a hybrid camera if your doing video also…best in its class right now is the Sony A7RIV
I own a 50R and the rolling shutter makes it almost unusable, the slightest movement of a subject creates a huge image stretch. I shoot a lot of film productions etc. where silence is necessary so I need to use electronic shutter. I wonder if the 50sII is better in this regard. Thanks!!
Is that a problem if u use the mechanic shutter??
@@81springbrook96 no, that only happens with electronic shutter.
👌🏿👍🏻🎭🤷🏼♂️if I have £4000 I’ll get it very nice review 😎
How is the battery life?
Thank You Sir.
GFX100/S better Low Light and Noise Performance???
Sure??? With the pixel pitch of an XT3… would be a miracle as the 51MP Sensor has already incredibly good high ISO Performance
much newer sensor, you can make smaller pixel pitch but have superior performance
@@KenTheoriaApophasis I am aware that an increased photodiode quality and optimized processing is moving sensor tech to the next nevel… but I am still left impressed 😄
Oh dang, chest nuts roasting on an open fire.
How do you feel about the gfx 50r being discontinued? Must be very disappointed smh
its ok
@@KenTheoriaApophasis are you keeping yours?? It’ll continue to get an firmware update though yes? I’m so close to getting one used that is .
Would you still highly recommend it ? Thank you ken
👌❤
👍🙏🙏🙏👍
Hooped,...
No sound
On your end. I got sound.
i have sound.
heard the AF was absolutely awful.
medium format is not about AF performance honey
@@KenTheoriaApophasis I agree, to an extent. But to be clear, I'm not talking comparable to apsc or full frame units on offer in this era. But I saw some videos online, focus pulling on stationary objects taking 15-20 seconds. Another example where it could not lock on to the subject for a shot outside... seems like that would be annoying and like it should be addressed -- especially at the price point.
It’s totally usable in good light, I don’t really ever notice the AF until some action comes up (people running, kids playing, etc.)
@@M.Redsky Did you read what Ken just stated? MF is not about fast AF
I hate fujufilm remove the D-pad buttons
