Medium Format is the Future and Now Has its Own Premium Magazine

Fujifilm Medium Format

Let’s start with a few names that might sound familiar to you: Olaf Sztaba, Patrick La Roque, Jonas Rask, Ming Thein, Lloyd Chambers and more.

What do they have in common?

Well, they shoot medium format, and they now contribute to the new magazine launched by our friend Olaf Sztaba, mediumformat.com.

And not the magazine. There are also webinars, PDF Guides and educational materials from the best medium format shooters out there. A complete package!

Join now, and take advantage of a special pre-launching price. Check out all the details at mediumformat.com.

NOTE: This is not a sponsored post. I share it because the project of having a magazine dedicated to medium format photography is surely interesting for many FR-readers, and also because Olaf is a friend of FujiRumors, and one of the first supporter of the FujiRumors fair trade T-shirts initiative, that contributed to raise $5,000 for charity, helping Cambodian kids to get access to free education.

FUJIFILM Should NOT go FULL FRAME you Say + Advantages of APS-C (and MF)

Specs are Fun, but don’t let them take Control over You: Keep up Watching at the (Photography) World primarily Artistically, rather than Technically

You Don’t Want Full Frame Fujifilm

Here are the results of the poll we launch a few days ago here.

77% of you voted that you don’t want a Full Frame interchangeable line by Fujifilm.

  • 43% don’t want FF at all
  • 19% don’t want FF in MILC, but they would like an FF Fujifilm X200
  • 15% don’t want FF, but a APS-H sensor that is still compatible with existing mount and lenses

So basically for 62% of you there is no need to have FF on Fuji’s MILC lineup, and my impression is that those, who vote for APS-H, care most about compatibility with existing lenses, hence, if APS-H is not possible, they’d rather prefer to keep APS-C than go FF  and invest all over again in a new system.

Only 12% of FR-readers are Pro full frame, whereas other 6% voted for the option to put a FF sensor in the G mount, making the GFX a hybrid system.

So, if Fujifilm listens, than at least here on FR the advice is clear: continue to improve, where you are already the best in the market, APS-C and Medium Format, and avoid the FF slaughter between Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic and maybe even Olympus.
