Novoflex GFX Support

We already broke the news here on FR, that Novoflex is working on support for Fujifilm GFX. Well, we now have the full details, thanks to fellow GFX facebook group member Vadim (thanks). Here is the press release:

“We are happy to announce the first NOVOFLEX lens adapters for the new Fujifilm GFX 50s medium format camera.

The line will start with adapters for Leica R, Leica M, Nikon and Canon FD bayonet mount, whose market introduction is planned for the beginning of June, 2017. More adapters are in preparation. Among these will be models for medium format lenses of the following mounts: Hasselblad V, Mamiya 645 and Pentax 67 and an adapter for the universal bellows of the BALPRO-series.

Especially interesting are the lens adapters with 35mm bayonet mount for tilt-/shift lenses, as their image circle is absolutely large enough, in order to fully illuminate the sensor format of the GFX 50s. However, numerous further 35mm lenses have an image circle which is bigger than the 35mm format itself, so that none or only marginal vignettings are caused. Moreover, many old or classic 35mm lenses are based on lens calculations of large format and/or medium format lenses. Potentially arising vignettings can be used for creative purposes or in many cases can later be removed by software.

The adapter for Nikon lenses comes with built-in mechanical aperture control to allow its use with G-type Nikkor lenses as well. None of the adapters will transfer any information between the camera and the lens.“

Fujifilm X100F: “Passion for Photography Condensed to a Little Beautiful Box” :: Ken Rockwell X100F Review :: Dust Proof X100F Viewfinder & More

Fujifilm X100F Zone

Time for another dedicated roundup about Fujifilm’s most sexy camera, the Fujifilm X100F. But it does not look only super-good, it also takes gorgeous images, as you can see at our 8,000+ Fujifilm X100F facebook group. I’ll just share 3 images from the group down below.

But let’s start with the ThePhotonauts video review that I’ve shared at the top of this article. I’d like to highlight the final conclusions the reviewer makes, because I think he really brings the whole X100F (and Fuji X) shooting experience to the point. ThePhotonauts says:

“Fujifilm X cameras have helped me to enjoy photography again, when I had a big low in my career a few years ago. The X100 series is what started it all, but to this day and with the latest iteration, this hasn’t changed one bit.

Some of you may not get the same vibe, but to me and many others, these cameras are passion for photography condensed to a little beautiful box.

Just looking at it makes me want to get out and shoot. I think that’s more than I could ever have asked from any camera.”

And now a few more X100F links to enjoy :)

Fujifilm GFX 50S Vs. Canon 5DS R Vs. Hasselblad X1D :: Kevin Mullins First GFX Experience :: Fujinon GF 110mmF2 and GF23mmF4 & More (GFX Roundup)

Canon 5DS R vs Fujifilm GFX 50S in French at focus-numerique (translation)

Kevin Mullins: Snap Festival & My First GFX Experience at f16.click. Here an excerpt:

“I had maybe an hour maximum with the GFX. I won’t be using it for shooting my style of documentary wedding photography. I’ve spent the last six years downsizing from DSLR to smaller, faster mirrorless and I don’t want to reverse that decision. However, what I can say about my experience with the GFX is that it is very true what people are saying; the image quality and the “medium format” feel of the images is unrivalled from anything I’ve ever used. I can see this camera being amazingly popular with editorial wedding photographers or those who spend a lot of time doing bridal portraiture.  It really does create razor sharp, gorgeous images and I intend renting one later in the year to see if it fits well with my equine work.”
