Fujifilm GFX 50S Vs. Nikon D850 Estimated Dynamic Range Comparison

Share

Fujifilm GFX

Photons to Photos has published their first (estiamted) Dynamic Range chart for the just announced Nikon D850, and we can now compare it to the Fujifilm GFX 50s.

The result, as you can see above, is still clearly in favour of the Medium Format Fujifilm GFX 50s compared to the BSI Full Frame Nikon D850 camera.

Seems like the Fujifilm GFX 50s is still the way to go, if you want the ultimate dynamic range. But let’s wait for the real test, and not just the estimate, before we make any conclusions.

Check it out at Photons to Photos.

Fujifilm Firmware Update Will Bring Improved AF-Tracking of X-E3 also to Other X-series Cameras

Share

Fujifilm X-E3

Just yesterday we reported about the rumored improved AF-tracking of the upcoming Fujifilm X-E3.

Some people thought that this could mean there will be some hardware improvements over the X-T2 (faster processor, new sensor etc).

Well, instead of replying to everyone in the comments and on Facebook and Twitter, I think it’s better to say it in a dedicated article: the AF-tracking improvement will be software related only, and Fujifilm will deliver a nice firmware update to bring it to other X-series cameras, too.

So guys, the big Fujifilm Party on September 7 is coming… and I’m ready for an epic live blogging.

Stick around… and stay tuned on Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter for the latest updates.:)

have a GREAT day,

Rethinking How I Shoot Fuji Jpegs :: How I Process Fuji RAF files – The Power of X-Trans Zone :)

Share

How I Edit / Process Fuji .RAF files at ZedProMedia Youtube

The Power of X-Trans

Fujifilm files are so lovely out of the box, that I find myself processing images way less than I did in my non-Fuji shooter life.

But truth is, I’m not Ken Rockwell, so I don’t get it always right in camera ;).

There are situations, such as recently at my mothers’ 60 years birthday party, were I do not have much time to think about the settings. So many things happen and change all the time, that I rather focus on capturing the moment, knowing that the huge flexibility of my X-Trans files will allow me to correct eventual exposure errors I made in post.

However, processing your RAW files is not only a way to fix some errors, but also a terrific creative tool.

So here is a roundup, dedicated to the power of X-Trans :)

Fujifilm X-E3 Will have Improved AF-Tracking… Even Better than Fujifilm X-T2

** Fujifilm X-E User facebook Group **

The Fujifilm X-T2 autofocus is fast. I mean really fast.

It is so fast, that even the godfather of the Sony A7 series, Sony Manager Kimio Maki, confirmed in an interview, that the fast focussing Fujifilm X-T2 is a threat for Sony A7 series and that Sony does not have this weapon right now. [NOTE: a weapon, that finally came with the Sony A9]

And the X-T2 AF-tracking is also vastly improved compared to everything else we have seen before in the Fuji world.

I don’t own the X-T2, but I saw it in action last year, when I joined the Fuji X Photowalk after a very busy day at Photokina. The organizer of the photowalk, wedding photographer Jörg Kampers, had the X-T2 with the XF 56mmF1.2 and tracked a runner on the street using the 56 wide open at F1.2. And when we reviewed the images… bang… the X-T2 nailed every single shot!

But somehow it will get even better… :-)

I hear, that the Fujifilm X-E3 will have an improved AF-tracking. And I mean improved not compared to the X-E2, but compared to the X-T2!

Sounds good?

Well, then stay tuned on FujiRumors via Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter… we are going to have a good time soon :)

have a fantastic day,

Rumored Fujifilm X-E3 specs

IBIS, really?

In the comments and at our facebook page, there was some confusion. People thought FR has said the X-E3 will have IBIS. Well, although I actually realize that no source explicitly told me that it will NOT have IBIS, I feel quite confident to say that the X-E3 won’t have IBIS. So, although not rumored by FR-sources, I say….

  • no IBIS

I guess all the confusion comes from the following rumors

  • Fujifilm X-T2 Successor to be Called Fujifilm X-T2S – read here
  • Fujifilm X-T2S will have IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization) – read here
  • Don’t Worry, Fujifilm X-T2S In Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) will Work with ALL Fujinon X-Mount Lenses – read here
