    Fantastic photos! The X-Pan aspec ratio is truly legendary. I wish I could try that setup myself one day, with all the film simulation recipes that are popping up in the Fuji community, that setup must be so fun to shoot with!

      Something special about the Fujifilm Film simulations … Now if they can put the new 40mp sensor from the XH2 in a X100 body and add the XPAN mode 🤑

    I shoot with a 50R and an X-Pro2. I've tended to work with the 50R as my "set piece" camera for specific, planned in advance shots, and kept the X-pro for travel and more casual walk-around. But the possibility of using the 50R as a digital X-pan has caused me to use it more and more as a walk-around camera. Pairing it with the GF 35-70 makes a fairly lightweight package which will hang happily off a sling strap, and gives (I think) the X-pan equivalent of 50 - 100, so not far off the "traditional" 45 and 90mm X-pan primes, in terms of FOV..

    Great video and I couldn’t agree more…though the 50R definitely feels more of a brick in the hand than the XPan. The XPan viewfinder experience is hard to beat, but the files out of the GFX are just great.
    Btw, your XPan unboxing video was amazing…unique! Bitter-sweet for me as I sold my pristine XPan II years ago with all 3 lenses and that leather bag, and have never seen one in the same condition since, for any price! I had the ‘ever-ready case’ which was lovely soft leather and the key for keeping the camera in perfect condition for me. I have recently picked up an H1 in great condition from the same era - surprisingly good value, and goes some way towards compensating!

    Hi Daryl excellent video, great to see you in NZ as well! 😊 I have a question. I just purchased a Nikon ZF however always loved this camera as well due to the Xpan ratio. I am torn between using pixel shift on the ZF and then cropping in post to that ratio or investing in a 50r for that. I am mostly looking at fine art, landscaping and architecture for my subject matter. What is your advice and does any of the other GFX have that picture ratio? Thx

    Nice video and photos. The idea of a digital XPAN is getting a lot of traction recently. You could also use the new X-T2 (7728 px wide, cf GFX 50R's 8256 px wide) *if only* Fuji would provide a 65:24 (or similar) crop in a future firmware update! Please Fuji!!

  • @Narsuitus
    @Narsuitus Рік тому +2

    The Hassleblad and Fuji panoramic cameras produce 24x65mm images on 35mm film.
    The Fuji 6x7cm medium format rangefinder cameras produce 24x68mm images on 35mm film.
    The Fuji 6x9cm medium format rangefinder cameras produce 24x90mm images on 35mm film.

    I love my 50R but it can get quite heavy with some lenses. I’ve added a grip to reduce hand strain. Also it is easy to use vintage lenses with it. Mamiya 645 Sekor C lenses work really well on GFX cameras.

      @TarrelScot Рік тому

      @@DarrylCarey I use the M645 80mm and 45mm with my 50R. Both are nice and sharp. The bulk and weight does add up when you take the adapter into account though. I have an original Mamiya 645, so it does mean that I get good use out of those lenses. Also have the 210mm but it's not great, and has a lousy min focus distance.

  • @Zobeid

    I'm pondering, because you mentioned the Panasonic S1R at the beginning, which would seem to me like maybe a better choice for this exercise. It also has the XPan crop mode, and it would be more cost-effective. Then let's say, you could pair it with a Sigma 24mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary lens, a match to the XPan's 45mm kit lens.

    Not sure why more camera's don't support this crop mode, seems so simpler for them to do. The latest firmware for the S1R does support 24x65, but not in some modes (iA, burst, 6K, Time Lapse, Stop Motion, HLG, HR, Multiple Exposure, filter settings). It also does not crop the actual raw file, but there is meta info in it that says it was taken 24x65, but not sure if any of the editing software uses that info. I have not used it myself except to test it just now.

    • @DarrylCarey
      @DarrylCarey  Рік тому +1

      I did not know the new firmware for the S1R supported 24x65, with the 47mp size you would be getting some nice detail in the crop. I hope Panasonic bring out a S1R MKII, still one of my fav cameras for photography.

    • @therealsirrobin
      @therealsirrobin Рік тому

      Lightroom will apply the crop when opening up the raw files but of course you could change it afterwards.

    • @RobertLeeAtYT
      @RobertLeeAtYT Рік тому +2

      Why would you want the camera to crop the RAW file? Having it record full sensor gives you much more options for post.
      Should be really interesting for scenes amenable to the high res composite mode. With the XPan aspect ratio, you're basically throwing away half of that 200MP source image. However, 100MP is plenty for some really satisfyingly large prints.

    The Panasonic S1R has a 65:24 ratio option, just saying. I don't like the old viewfinder in the 50R. 3.6 MP looks and feels like something of the old world today. When switching to a 5.x MP viewfinder camera it was the first time that it actually felt quite good.

    • @DarrylCarey
      @DarrylCarey  Рік тому

      Hi Tom, yes you are right about the EVF on the GFX50R, it's not the best but its better than the one I have been using on my M10-P which is like something from 15yrs ago. Panasonic S1 and S1R have the best EVF's I have every used, I think the Leica SL2 and SL2-s are using the same EVF's. I hope Panasonic keep going with the Pro Full Frame mirrorless camera range.

  • @MikeKleinsteuber
    @MikeKleinsteuber Рік тому

    I'm afraid I don't get it. The crop mode is just that - it's showing you a crop in the jpg image only. But you can crop any digital image at any time you want and in reality there's nothing similar between the two cameras at all. Sure you have more sensor real estate in the Fuji but that's it.

    • @andrewsimpson5436
      @andrewsimpson5436 9 місяців тому +1
