Are you sure the difference is just about sensor size? What if that Sony had a vertical grip for additional batteries?A size comparison of the Sony A7RIII and Fuji GFX100 bodies. Lenses extra. A larger sensor comes at a price.
You can add a vertical grip for the Sony if you want one. You can't take the vertical grip off the Fuji.Are you sure the difference is just about sensor size? What if that Sony had a vertical grip for additional batteries?
It always does.A larger sensor comes at a price.
For general photography the Sony is likely more capable but with that being said it won’t match the Fuji in pure IQ. The Sony will also likely have better battery life. If using the absolute best Sony lenses I’d assume that it would be a push in quality, price, and size.Are you sure the difference is just about sensor size?

It appears the FUJIFILMEVF-TL1 EVF Tilt Adapter Should do the trick. But can it support the increased resolution of the GFX 100 EVF? Time will tell ... . :facesmack:So far I have not seen a Tilt Adapter for the GFX 100. :facesmack:
That would be an essential accessory for me. :thumbup:
Tre thanks, I agree. I like using both, Fuji mMF and Sony FE. :thumbs:For general photography the Sony is likely more capable but with that being said it won’t match the Fuji in pure IQ.

So everything comes down to the subjective needs of the end user. I wouldn’t mind either or both if money were no object. If I wanted to distinguish myself further I’d choose the medium format option. If focus and tracking were more important I’d choose a Sony body. Simple as that for me. Both are capable and either can probably do the job in the hands of a reasonably skilled end user... they’re both more specialized towards certain types of jobs though.
I'm rarely printing anything at all so I can't comment or rather shouldn't comment, but there's truth in your words.The limit to photography is the human visual system. What are the conditions that need to be met where a 100MP system become visually different form a 50MP or 24MP one? More pixels does not mean bigger prints, but simply higher-frequency detail, just as fine grain film has higher-frequency detail than coarse-grain film.
I took kind of the same route as Louis. My first camera was an m4/3 Olympus E-P1. I was amazed at the quality of the prints I was getting from this 12MP camera. My 40MP Pentax 645D gives amazing results--I mostly make 40" prints and have gone larger and 40" prints are a breeze at 40MP. The Pentax is a bit of a beast, and while I have used it handheld, it mostly sits on a tripod (I learnt a lot about using tripods with that camera). After putting together a book with images taken with my Mamiya 6 medium-format film camera, I missed the spontaneity I had with that. I used it for documentary work with ISO 400 film, and while the image quality was great, it was not really competing with digital. Looking at a few cameras, I rather nervously bought an X Pro2 sight unseen after a lot of research. My criteria was if I could get good 40" prints from the images, it would stay. Needless to say, I am really pleased with the work I have been making from that system as well as the freedom in its handling.
We seem to be moving in the seasoning-as-you-go problem. You keep adding a bit more seasoning to taste as you cook. You seem to be able to keep adding a bit more as you cook. Only when you come to serve, do you notice it is too much. While maximization seems to be the ideal, I have been thinking more about optimization. Yes, you can double your energy intake by doubling your food portions, but there is a downside. I have been thinking more about how I can achieve my goals by optimizing my systems. Yes, my Pentax has better image quality than my X Pro2 in absolute terms, but what about practical terms? Is it something a viewer would notice? Since I travel a great deal on foot in my work, how does physical exertion in carrying my equipment impact the final result? I have just added a Fuji XF10 to my bag and it has been a revelation.
I totally get the appeal of this camera. There are even photographers that can take advantage of this (although they will need something bigger than a 42" printer). It is great Fuji is developing this tech. I am looking forward to seeing the works folks will get with this.
Because they are very heavy!Not owning the 50S I am confused about why the tilt adapter might not support 100MP images...
