In 2017, FUJIFILM launched the first medium format camera - GFX50S, and finally launched GFX50S II today after 4 years waiting. Although the second generation is used along the same 50MP Sensor, it is replaced by the GFX100S body design. The T125 is replaced with a new battery W235, and the power is multiplied; also used the same X-Processor 4 like GFX100S too, so that made the system is integrated; With the new design of GFX100S 5-axis 6 stops IBIS, equipped with specific lenses, the stabilisation can go up to 6.5 stops.
Once I was a user of the GFX50S, I was introduced to the X-Photographer team when GFX series was launched, . The impression of this machine is particularly profound. In the past week of using the prototype GFX50Sii, i have a little experiences would like to share.
The picture quality of this machine is absolutely unquestionable, although there is no 100S BSI Sensor focusing system that fast, but it is clearly improved with the first generation 50S focus system, especially in low light environment. The eye's focus sensitivity is also more than whole GFX50 series, there is no high speed and slow continuous shooting but 3shots pre second, and the picture is as detailed with the GFX50S.
The Dynamic Range of GFX50S II only have 12stops (GFX100S 14stops), RAW file is only 14-bit (GFX100S Up to 16-bit), but it is actually very sufficient for general users. Since 50S II has an IBIS system, the Pixel Shift function is retained, and can merge up to 200MP image, which is suitable for products, landscapes, and architecture photograph.
Due to the previous generation of sensor, the filming system can only reach 1080p 30fps, there is no 4K shooting. If you want to do video with this camera, you should consider it.
The price will be cheaper than GFX50R when it first released, I believe it will become the most attractive "entry" medium format camera in the market!
