Anyone who Questions X-T2 APS-C images…

… can’t do big prints?

In these days, where we are all stunned by the resolution of the Fujifilm GFX, Sean Marc Lee shows that the 24MP APS-C can already print big. In fact, he shoot an image for Nike with his X-T2 and it was printed on a huge billboard. He used the X-T2 w/ 35mm f2.2 1/125.

So yes, also APS-C Fuji’s can get the job done :) You can see the image at Marc’s instagram here. Also from the same campaign, check out in Chinese hypebeast.

Fujinon XF 50mm F2 WR Vs. XF 56mm F1.2

Jordan just shared his XF50mmF2 Vs. XF56mmF1.2 comparison at admiringlight here:

“both are very good lenses. The 56mm f/1.2 is sharper at similar apertures over most of the frame, though the 50mm f/2 is a touch sharper at the edges at f/2. Bokeh is a fairly close race, and as both are quite sharp, and both have nice renderings, I’d consider the other factors when choosing between the two.”

Fujifilm GFX

– The Fujifilm GFX is like your old SLR + example shots at Palle Schultz Youtube: “When you see the files that come out of it, there is really nothing to complain about. There is only one thing you can complaint about while using the GFX, and that is the photographer, because the GFX will show if the photographer is not good, but the GFX will help you to do the best that you can be. […] the files are so big, that you don’t want to fill up your hard disk too fast. So I slowed down, and I asked my models to slow down, and take fewer pictures, but better. With the GFX you concentrate more, and take that one picture that you want“. Check out also the AWESOME images at the end of the video (music in the background played by Palle Schultz himself)

– Potraits on FUJI GFX 50S, 120mm F4 Macro and 63mm F2.8 by Baljit Singh Deo at baldeo. Another set of stunning images.

Both, Palle Schultz and Baljit Singh Deo are members of our 10,200+ members strong Fujifilm GFX facebook group, share their work with the GFX 50s there and are always open to discuss it with the members. I really love to see how this group is growing together and how much enthusiasm there is for the GFX… and for photography in general.

Fujinon XF 50mm F2 WR

Lenstip just shared their Fujinon XF50mmF2 WR review, and it’s an extremely positive one.

Pros:

• handy but solid and weather-sealed casing,
• brilliant image quality in the frame centre,
• good image quality on the edge of the frame,
• negligible spherical aberration,
• low lateral chromatic aberration,
• sensible coma correction,
• negligible astigmatism,
• sensible performance against bright light,
• silent, sensibly quick and accurate autofocus on the X-T2 body.

Cons:

• some problems with the longitudinal chromatic aberration,
• visible vignetting on RAW files.

Conclusion: “An excellent lens – those words would be enough. Still, to make our summary more eloquent we have to add that for a very decent price you get a lens sensationally sharp in the frame centre, small, lightweight, weather-sealed and produced in Japan. It didn’t avoid some flaws but they aren’t very important and don’t change our assessment in any way. A round of applause, Fuji!”

Fujifilm GFX

_ _ _

DPReview Reviewer Dan Bracaglia is right now testing the Fujifilm GFX. His full review will be out soon. But he gave us some tidbits in his talk with TWiT Netcast Network on youtube. He says:

• Pretty good EVF resolution, but when you focus, you can get some shimmering and moire.
• because of the not so fast lenses, the advantage of having a MF sensor is lost (FF has faster glass)
• You can shoot higher ISO with less grain
• it’s a specialty camera for high-resolution photography
• Worth waiting a generation and wait for more lenses to come out first
• Fuji has some of the nicest color science of all camera manufacturers out there

Fujifilm GFX 50S – Unboxing, studio test and my first thoughts at ThePhotonauts youtube… shows also the shadow recovery capability of the camera (see image below and video at 3:12)

1) Fuji GFX-50S | Hands-on Review at wexphotographic youtube

2) Landscape photography in Madeira with the Fujifilm GFX in German at 0816fotograf (translation): ” The camera perfectly supports my very conscious and focused landscape photography and my other photographic aims. Thus the Fujifilm GFX is the ideal tool for the future. It is a professional tool that delivers top results when used correctly.”

3) Fujifilm GFX experience in Norway at williamchua (shooting northern lights with the GFX and testing weather sealing and battery life in extreme conditions): “The details and dynamic range is fantastic. Coupled that with the Fuji colors and the black and white film simulation, its definitely a winner.”

4) GFX 50s First Impressions at fotograficoweb: “The GFX is a pure medium format camera – quintessentially. Feels smaller, like a DSLR, follows the X series brilliant ergonomics and disappears from your hand after a couple of hours letting you focus on photography. And this is probably one of the better attributes of the GFX. It is not an extremely desirable object like a X100F or a X-Pro2 from the design point of view but it is highly functional, specially because it produces MF files […] Is it better than a full-frame DSLR? It is DIFFERENT and not comparable. ”

whops, flash did not fire? no problem :)

Admiringlight (one of my favorite reviewers on the web) just shared his full X-T20 review… and it’s a very positive one. As I already said, I think the X-T20 hits the sweet spot in the X-lineup, and is currently the camera with the best value for money… and not only in the Fuji world!

Here are Jordan’s Pros and Cons:

Pros

• Solidly constructed body
• Excellent control layout, with dedicated dials and programmable buttons
• Clear, detailed and low-lag EVF
• Excellent autofocus in both single shot and continuous mode, with wide AF point coverage and customizable continuous AF modes
• Fully featured, with Wi-Fi connectivity, a built-in intervalometer, art filters, panorama stitching, multiple exposures and more
• 24 Megapixel sensor has excellent dynamic range, great detail and reasonably low noise for an APS-C sensor
• 8 fps burst rate with AF tracking and a deep buffer
• Great manual focus aids
• 4K Video
• Excellent rear touch screen
• Can charge through the USB port
• Great electronic shutter capabilities, as fast as 1/32,000 second.
• Excellent value

Cons

• The grip is quite small, and combined with an imperfect rear thumb grip placement makes the camera handle awkwardly with larger lenses
• EVF is smaller than some of the competition
• Bracketing at +/- 2 stops for 3 shots only
• Buttons on the top of the camera are a bit small and mushy.
