I would like to be the Fuji X-T2 with kit lens and Battery Grip from B&H.  It is 1,999.99. 

 

However, it appears to be always back ordered.  Do you just order it online and then wait until they send it?

 

Any thoughts?

 

Also, would really like GPS with Fuji X-T2.  Would prefer a really good GPS system.  One that fits on the hot shoe would be good.  Can't seem to find any type except for smartphone apps.

 

Thanks for any help.

I have been dealing with B&H for over 20 years and have found that when you order items that are back-ordered you can wait a long time.  For some reason, they seem to get shipments after other major outlets.  As an example, two years ago I bought a Leica Q from a major catalog store and was using it for around two months and B&H had still not been able to get one in stock. You may have to wait a long time.

I did the same deal through B&H this past February. It took 70 days for the order to be filled. My card was not charged until delivery, well a ten days before delivery, B&H was closed for Jewish holidays.

I would order through B&H to get in line for shipment. When I ordered it was 7-10 days, up waited 70 days. You can always cancel the order, in the mean time look at smaller suppliers and local camera stores. Adorama could be faster, maybe even Fotocare in New York, it's not a mail order outfit, but a true professional store, again get on the line.

I wish you luck, great camera but long wait.

      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

      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.
