If I were P1, I would’ve made Fuji agree not to implement pixel shift in the capture one support agreement, but that’s a good question
100Mpx sensor, PDAF on the sensor itself, lens line-up extending to 277mm FF equivalent, built-in vertical grip. All for possibly under $10K. Hmmm........ very enticing indeed.
hahahah Doug - of course IBIS is less irrelevant for ARAT photography ( you know another rock another tree stuff) but will be very useful for snaps and you know studio work hand held with lighting and stuff - you can keep your stop of ISO - Fuji is all over the MF manufacturers like ugly on ape - The CEO of Phase One had to climb the Fuji stage at Photokina and eat humble pie in front of the whole world when he commted ritualised sepuku and signed the surrender treaty in front of a telivised to the world event and openned up Capture One to the unthinkable - another MF manufcaturer...game over.
I guess everything has its price. It becomes ever more clear that what Fuji is targeting with the GFX is the pro DSLR market. Essentially a Canon 1 but mirrorless and with a bigger sensor. If the price of IBIS is what I see with the GFX 100S (and there may be other reasons), I seriously doubt that Hasselblad will make the decision to incorporate it into the X2D. I hope they stay the course with the existing form factor. IBIS is not worth that sacrifice to me in the way I shoot.Sadly yes it’s more like a canon 1 camera. I hope it changes, but even though they say they integrated the grip out of user request, I’m not sure if is more because of IBIS and all the other tech they need in that body. Don’t forget it’s a 100MP that need to be tampered.
The 'mock-up' is a camera which will deliver 100megapixels/image stabilised and capable of delivering 4K video the first serious large megapixel crossover monster to be made -combined with a a lens line-up made by a company whose MF /LF pedigree is as good as it gets ( just ask Hasselblad) call the Camera what you like, sneer at its Japanese maker by referencing a Company like Canon - whatever makes you feel better. My pre-order is already in and my XID and long relationshiop with Hasselblad is over....-
I love the design and personally welcome the integrated grip on a camera that needs one. I can appreciate that some would prefer no grip though. I do agree that it's probably to house the IBIS.Sadly yes it’s more like a canon 1 camera. I hope it changes, but even though they say they integrated the grip out of user request, I’m not sure if is more because of IBIS and all the other tech they need in that body.

and bigger batteries - more processing power, IBIS, etc.
Yes I noticed that. I personally would prefer to attach the grip when and only when I need it.
The Fuji XH1 is physically larger than the XT2 to accommodate IBIS. It is not really a surprise that the GFS would be larger than the GFX/GFR as well.
