100 Megapixel Street Photography with the Fujifilm GFX100s II

Josh takes the Fujifilm GFX 100s II for a spin around London and his local area, discussing his experience using the camera. We also then drop the files into Adobe Lightroom and take a look at how well they edit and how the 100 megapixels hold up

    Thank you for this video Josh. I was thinking about Fuji. Took a Fuji camera to the Seattle Pride parade and had a fall. Cracked the screen and it is on the way to be repaired. I’m doing much better than that camera. I never considered a medium format of street photography. Two criteria I have for the gear I own is size and weight. Small and lightweight wins the day. Medium formate looses on both criteria. As you mentioned .josh. Price. One reason I don’t use Leica, other than at free loaner events at the camera store, is price. Affordable is good. Inexpensive is better. Again, for me, medium format looses me on this account. You like the 4:3 ratio? So do I. I use lumix M43 gear. Love my GX8/85/9 for street photography and the PL15mm lens. The P20/1.7 and 25/1.7 lenses are winners for me. LOVE the L monochrome D jpeg B&W SOOC. My favorite. I’m also a big Fuji fan. I have many Fuji bodies and lenses. Use Fuji for the typical reasons. Wanted the X100VI. So did a million others. I cancelled my order. I’m not waiting a year or paying a premium for that camera. Loved the photo of your son @07:49. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

    I love the GFX cameras so much. The image fidelity, the colours, the 4:3 aspect ratio. I bought a GFX 100 II not too long ago. It's amazing. The only thing is that I wish I could shoot smaller raws with it. I had the 50R previously and 50 MP was enough for me. 102 MP is a little too much.

    @@r423sdex 24 MP is a ‘sweet spot’ for digital cameras in my opinion. However the GFX system lacks a good range of telephoto lenses at the moment, so having a bit more resolution allows you to crop more with the available lenses.

Patreon offers shop services but you also do that on the website. And so on. I enjoy how you've put everything together but interested in how and why you did the way you did it. It may just have evolved, I guess. Cheers.

    @@frame-lines In a way, yes. On the other hand the weak close focus ability of native GF glass let‘s say compared to a FF 50/1.2 gives no advantages in that respect. I am shooting various GFX cameras for the last three years and still not quite sure if it was the right decision but since I am pretty heavily invested in the system going back to full frame becomes kind of unlikely.
