When i have all on manual i can see how dark the picture is etc in the evf. But when i put aperture in auto and the rest in manual i cant see it in the evf and it shows it if all is fine untill you actually take the pic. Is this a setting or normall?????

 

Have you read the manual? You comments lead me to believe you don't understand how to use the camera. You can't have the Aperture in auto, and the rest in manual, you will have the camera on shutter priority, unless the shutter speed dial on A, then the camera is in Program mode. If the shutther speed is very fast, you won't be able to see it in the EVF, the photo will  be underexposed or dark.

Well, I am sorry I said something wrong my bad that I thought the A on the switch on my lens was auto. You could have chosen to be a nice person and not arrogant one about it. It still didn't answer my question why if in full manual mode I see my evf chance from underexposed to overexposed or just right and why it's not happening when not fully in manual mode. I just thought that was / is weird.

Ron -- when in auto on aperture, the camera chooses the correct aperture to make the exposure "correct."  to see the EVF darken or lighten, you turn the dial on the top at far right, the exposure compensation dial.  you will see the results in the EVF.  

 

don't know why you were subject so such a snarky answer from the other person.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
