And yet it killed the Dream! It killed belowed 33f1.0. GFX must burn in hell!

 

-_- nonsense, you can say the same about the new smaller 23, 35 and 50mm f/2.0 WR lenses. Although I must say I hope they continue to develop stellar no compromise aps-c lenses which was why they got big(ger) in the first place  :wub:

Never mind, I'm kidding, but if we are talking about gfx images here you are another two from here - http://www.thephoblographer.com/2016/09/21/first-impressions-fujifilm-gfx-50s/

Oh.

I only see images of the camera, not by the camera.

 

Cheers.

 

It's an early beta version, they will never allow any SD card anywhere near that model at this point, I was at the Sigma booth to get physical in touch with the 85 F1.4, the 12-24 F4 and the 500 F4 and I had to negotiate quite a bit with the Sigma representative to mount them onto my camera and had to physically taken out all the cards in the body before I could snap at anything.

 

And the Sigma lenses are pretty much production ready at this point, the GFX still has quite a bit of road to walk before it even gets there.

6 months before availability? :o

Err... Well from what I heard, it said Q2 or Q3 next year, so more like anything between 6 to 12 months.

 

It is like that 23 F2, still no official release date, it is expected to be early 2017 but nothing is set in stone yet.

 

I saw it behind closed glass panels but that's about it. There wasn't even a demo version on the show.

 

Or at least I am not high enough on the food chain to get on the back rooms of Fuji.

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • Thank you. I will research it.
    • 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.
    • 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.
