Go Fuller than Full Frame? This Might be the Right Time!

For the first time ever, almost 2 years after its launch, there is a significant rebate the stellar Fujifilm GFX100S in USA, Canada and Europe (full list below). And knowing I am a GFX100S user myself, fellow FR-readers started to ask me if I can recommend the GFX100S.

I personally use the Fujifilm GFX100S a lot when I hike the mountains around my home (as you can see from the IG posts I will share below). And I also took the GFX100S with me on some multi-day mountain hikes, as I reported here:

I also take lots of images of my family with it, especially using the GF 50mmF3.5 (now $300% off).

Look guys, you know better than me that there are compromises to make no matter which camera you pick.

  • The GFX100S is small for what it is (even smaller than some FF mirrorless cameras)
    … but you do get generally smaller cameras and lenses with smaller sensor cameras
  • The GFX100S is affordable for what it is (even more affordable than some FF mirrorless cameras)
    … but you do generally get more affordable cameras with smaller sensor cameras
  • The GFX100S is fast and feature rich for what it is,
    … but you do get faster AF speed and more video features on smaller sensor cameras

But if the one compromise you don’t want to make is on image quality, then gor for the GFX system.

Because whatever system you currently use (M43, APS-C or FF), once you shoot with GFX, you’ll always come home with at least a hand-full of images that amaze you due to the sheer power the Fujifilm GFX100S demonstrates in those files.

I guess that’s also the reason why the SonyAlphaRumors guy himself owns the GFX100S as you can see here.

So, if you want to shoot fuller than full frame with a sensor about 70% larger than FF, if you want to know that in your hands you are holding the one camera, that will give you the best results and the biggest flexibility in the trickiest light conditions, the look no further: no camera will be able to handle it better than the Fujifilm GFX100S does.

Only some of those monstrous digital MF cameras can beat the Fujifilm GFX100S, but good luck hiking with those… if you can afford them!

Digital Camera Market Share 2021: Sony Grows Big (+4.9) Fujifilm a Bit (+0.3) and Losses for Canon (-2.1) and Nikon (-2.4)

Every year, Techno System Research, a major marketing research company located in Japan, publishes the worldwide camera market share data.

And while the data is behind a (very expensive) paywall, the main chart (see above) for this year has been published by the Japanese Nikkei.

Digital camera 2021 global market share (compared to 2020) *Techno System Research

  1. Canon … 45.8% (-2.1%)
  2. Sony … 27.0% (+4.9%)
  3. Nikon … 11.3% (-2.4%)
  4. Fujifilm … 5.9% (+0.3%)
  5. Panasonic … 4.4% (±0.0%)

This is the data for the entire digital camera market.

I find the mirrorless ranking more interesting, as it is free of all those DSLRs Canon and Nikon still sells.

For mirrorless only, this is the data we had for 2020:

  • Sony: about 35%
  • Canon: about 30%
  • Fujifilm: about 12%
  • Nikon: about 7%

Once Techno System Research publishes the data for mirrorless cameras only, I will let you know.

SIMPLY the BEST: Messi and Ronaldo Meet the Fujifilm GFX100S of Annie Leibovitz

Apparently Annie Leibovitz is not really following the photography forums and certain gear youtubers, otherwise she would know that the Fujifilm GFX100S is a completely useless tool because:

Limited by her gear, Annie stucks with minor gigs like photographing the two most iconic soccer players of the last 15 years, Ronaldo and Messi, for an insignificant company like Louis Vuitton in the context of a negligable event like the FIFA World Cup.

If only she would listen to certain big YouTubers, she would get rid of her GFX gear and finally be able to shine artistically by recording selfie videos in a basement.

The day will come, when wisdom will finally illumiate her. Until then, you can see a video of her working with GFX, Messi and Ronaldo as well as the final image below.

And btw… the gear Annie uses, is now heavily discounted.

NOTE: this is a satirical post… we don’t take life too seriously on weekends, right? ;) And thanks to our Greek friends at pttl.gr who spotted the news and shared it with us.
