    Fujifilm GFX100 II Teaser Video

    Now of course the pressing issue is when will we get an L-bracket and from who? :)

    Medium Format and Coffee

    Anyone, congratulations on the digital back. Where did you get that Kuksa? That's one of the most elegant modern designs I've seen for a Kuksa. I've never seen that one in all my many trips to Finland, can you share where you got it? Kind regards, Glenn

    leaving medium format and use "just" FF? X2D vs SL2 (or SL3)

    Good choice Dennis, that was going to be my 2 cents :) For a very small travel kit I've been using the X2D, 30 XCD, 45p and 90 XCD (which is pretty darn close to my Leica M system of many decades 24, 35 and 75). The Hassy system all fits into a Ryker shoulder bag from Wotancraft, small and...

    Advantages of using Hasselblad C/CF/CFI/CFE lenses with XV adapter on X1D/X2D/907x vs CF II 50v on a 5xx body with the Cxx lenses

    Ah, reading messages serially, this already well discussed by jog and others :). I definitely have to get the XV adaptor out with the X2D! ----------- The 40 FLE has significant CA/LoCA and corner issues + smearing, the 40 FLE IF is very good. The 60 CF had corner issues, the center is good...

    Advantages of using Hasselblad C/CF/CFI/CFE lenses with XV adapter on X1D/X2D/907x vs CF II 50v on a 5xx body with the Cxx lenses

    WRT b). like KC_2020 I also use a Flexbody, in the studio and sometimes in the field, with the CFV50cII since it takes advantage of the leaf shutters in the V lenses and avoids e-shutter issues. I have an old 501 and 503cwd and that is fun with the CFV back, however if I'm going to go to that...

    907X funky corner at f/32

    Doc, you are a fountain of wisdom :) Do you know if these are the right part numbers for Chemtronics canned air that you use: ES1020R‎ for the refill can (about $23 at Digi-Key) ES710V for the chrome trigger for 1020 (about $37 at Digi-Key) No mention of "all-way" on the ES1020R refill? :)...

    Hasselblad X2D first impressions

    This is why we call it "art" or "craft"

    Hasselblad X2D first impressions

    Yes, Howard brings up a critical point. The fff files are lossless compressed so you save a lot of disk space. Howard, do you know if ALL of the calibration data is maintained in the fff files? I've never tested that and I will when I'm back home. I would guess the answer is yes. LRc of...

    Hasselblad X2D first impressions

    Antonio, my workflow continually evolves since the software keeps changing. I am Apple Mac-based. Back in the H3Dii-39 days LR didn't handle 3FR files, until around 2009 or so (memory is foggy on exact date) LR (ACR) could import the 3FR file but not apply the corrections that Phocus could...

    Hasselblad X2D first impressions

    Jon, It is hard to separate the lenses/rendering from the camera/sensor/processing and then it all get transposed by the RAW processor, and of course it is personal and subjective - now with the disclaimers out of the way :) ........ These days I mostly shoot landscape, urban landscape, a bit...

    Hasselblad X2D first impressions

    Some first impressions of the X2D, FWIW and FYI and YMMV, actually YMWV :) I ordered mine on announcement day and received it on November 7th, after a multi-day FedEx delay. I didn't order any of the new XCDV lenses as of yet. First impression are that I really like it so far. The EVF is a...

    Oregon Coast and your MF camera choice?

    The last time I really did the Oregon Coast deliberately and slowly photographically was 1982 with a Westfalia 4x4 VW Vanagon, oh camera gear :) - Hasselblad 501cm, 3x A12 film backs, CF50, CF100, CF150 and CF250 + 2x Mutar + Gossen LunaPro SBC Meter. Shooting B&W. The 50 and 150 got the most...

    Why is the Leica SL 24-70 selling for such LOW prices new

    The one I saw on Adorama for $2,195 was used - it is gone now, they have new for $2,895, which is MSRP. I've seen them selling used for about $2,195 to $2,395 depending on box, condition, warranty left.

    What is your decision-making process when choosing your camera and lenses?

    Its clearly very personal. EMWV (everyone's mileage will vary). I start with what's motivating a desire/need for change? What am I frustrated/happy with when using my existing gear and the results it/me produces? Once in a great while a change is driven by the need to accomplish something...

    Help with a GFX 100 or 100S question

    Victor why not the 45? I have both and the 50 is a lot smaller than the 45, both of my copies are fine.

    Help with a GFX 100 or 100S question

    The GFX100s, 23, 45, 110 and 250 weigh 10.3 lbs, add the 1.4x and weight is 11.2 lbs - with the teleconverter that gets you 18, 45, 87, 200 and 280 effective focal lengths, which is both about what I can carry in a backpack for a day and a very flexible range. I'll leave the 250+1.4x behind...
