Fujifilm vs Sony
Weekend thoughts.
There are a lot of differences between Fujifilm and Sony, and I believe each company could learn some things something from each other.
But today I’d like to focus on one aspect, that I believe Sony and other brand are doing right, and Fujifilm should copy.
In terms of dynamic range, the 100 megapixel GFX100 beats all full frame cameras. If you need even more dynamic range, you have to pay $40,000 for a Phase One.
The bump you see at ISO800 is due to dual conversion gain.
Earlier today we shared the DPReview lab shots, which in my eyes showed impressive results in favor of the Fujifilm GFX100.
… we love the art of painting with light, the creative process of composing a story, of freezing fugitive moments and capturing ephemeral beauty in an image forever.
The camera specs are the last thing we care about.
Ok, now let’s get serious and have an exciting pixel peeping time! :D
Keep in mind that these are JPEGs from a pre-production Fujifilm GFX100. We can’t really make final conclusions, until we finally have standardized tests using RAW files developed in the same RAW converter.
Anyway, judging from the JPEGs, the Fujifilm GFX100 beats them all in terms of sharpness and high ISO performance, including the $30,000 (or is it $50,000) Phase One XF IQ3 100MP.
However, the there are some problems: for example, GFX100 sample was shot at f/8, whereas GFX50 at f/9. Let’s hope their RAW comparison will be more accurate.
Holy Crop! The Fujifilm GFX100 is pixel peeper paradise!
Down below I share some samples available at the imaging-resource comparometer here, where you can compare the Fujifilm GFX100 to any other camera in their database.
We love photography, because we can experience a childish joy of discovery, sometimes also by digging deep into the most technical aspects of it. :)
These full frame DSLR with inegrated grip have the same size of the medium format Fujifilm GFX100, which features a 70% bigger sensor than its full frame competitors.
