Fujifilm GFX Image Roundup

Hold on! Don’t say “Yet another GFX article” :) You can skip it if you want, and read the other two articles shared today, that are not (or not exclusively) GFX centric, like the X-E3 rumor here or the miXed zone here.

This post is just here to enjoy a tiny fraction out of the terrific amount of images shared over at our 11,000+ members strong GFX facebook group from all around the world. And the fact that they have been taken with GFX, is just secondary, compared to the beauty of the shots.

There is talent in the group, and I have the pleasure to share it with you :). So today, let’s see Madagascar, Italy, Russia and more through the eye of the GFX (also with a lot of adapted lenses)

Believe me, it costs me a ton of time to make these “image roundups”. But I am highly motivated to invest this time into it, because I know you guys appreciate that your images get the maximum visibility here on FujiRumors, and also because it’s a welcome break from the usual huge news/rumors stream here on FR.

But images are just one thing. The 11,000+ members of the group are also extremely helpful, ready to give you advice and feedback. You don’t believe me? Well, then you better join and check it out by yourself ;)

Also, feel free to follow the Fujifilm GFX facebook page for 100% GFX news and rumors.

Jim Kasson shared at the GFX group here his GF 63mm conclusions. All details details at blog.kasson.

I just finished the on-axis sharpness, focus shift, and LoCA tests for the 63mm f/2.8 lens on the GFX at 2 meters.
Conclusions:
This is one sharp lens on-axis.
There’s a fair amount of LoCA
The focus shift, while easily measurable, is modest.

Kaizen? Sorry Fuji, We Can’t Get Enough :) ! New 30+ Wish List of Future Improvements!

photo KAIZEN_zps1fdb780f.png

Dear Fujifilm, we love the Kaizen love you give to our cameras. But you know… we can never get enough :)

So here are some more firmware ideas for the future, shared by FR-reader Fujica (high time to share it :))

And you know it… Fujifilm Top Managers Read you!

  1. Interlock AF Type setting to AF Focus setting
    For example if you switch to single shot Focus (S) on the camera to then switch to Single Point focus automatically. If the camera is set to Continuous Focus to then automatically switch to Zone AF. – Of course the user should be able to set his own AF Type preference for each of the Focus settings (S / C).
  2. Live histogram when shutterbutton is being half pressed
  3. Set maximum number of images in CL / CH
  4. Cooked RAWs of Film Simulations
  5. Cooked RAWs for double exposure
  6. Cooked RAWs for panoramic shots
  7. Cooked RAWs for Dynamic Range Settings (DR200 / DR400 / AUTO)
  8. Reala Film Simulation
  9. Color Chrome Effect
  10. E-Front Curtain Shutter
  11. Date & Time to seconds
  12. More Customisable Q-Menu – More options to choose from (especially RAW options)
  13. AI Focus Intelligent version of One Shot Focus (S) and Continuous Focus (C) (Choose automatically depending upon the fact if the subject is moving or not).
  14. Move Pixel Mapping option under the Wrench (This is not an image IQ option but a maintenance tool)
  15. Quickly Select AF-Custom setting via rear command dial
  16. New Leveler with Tilt & Pitch (as found in the GFX)
  17. Star Rating to be compatible with Lightroom
  18. Eye Sensor while shooting + LCD Menu
  19. Auto ISO WARNING when below recommended shutter speed (Highly needed)
  20. RGB Histogram
  21. Anti Flicker AF option
  22. Noise reduction to ‘Off’
  23. Point-AF Follow Focus within Phase Detect area for moving subjects in AF-C. (sort of widea-area tracking, but different and better).
  24. Focus Tracking with Lock-on: Nikon has added additional options here for erratic or steady subjects allowing me to fine tune my autofocus for every given situation.
  25. Point-AF extension 1 (normal) – 5 (cross)  – 9 points (extended).
  26. CH mode: 6 + 7 fps
  27. Create Tone Curve (As Nikon Picture Control Editor)
  28. Improved ‘Add Noise’ as is calculated with the ACROS film simulation but then available to other Film Simulations. (So with no noise in the highlights and deepest shadows)
  29. 4k Video Image Capture: I can now take 8mp stills while shooting 4k video or extract them frame by frame after the fact.
  30. Slow Motion video Recording / playback
  31. F-Log to SD card

X-Pro2 Specific

  1. ISO set via rear command dial when ISO is set to L
  2. 4K video

What else?

Well, I (Patrick) would really like to have a highlight priority metering mode.

And you?
