The gfx50 like to be shot under exposed imo. You can bring back a TON of shadow detail but not so much highlight detail.

Wich model of the GFX fujifilm is?

stellar shots and video!!

03:10 Sorry I couldn't resist. Michael Scott: that what she said 😂

How’s the latency in this monitor?

Need me one of these! Great review brother!

what sigma lens did you use for your shoot? 35mm?

The best pictures I see in months, great work! New subscriber from Perú

I can’t believe it’s that light and compact and can compete with a C stand for most jobs. I have to say but it’s pretty compelling.

The video head on that tripod would save me a lot space and weight for onsite jobs. All my cages have arca swiss plates built in so it's just...better. The light stand looks like it can hold a 300D if needed. I'm so tired of carrying c-stands to on-site video shoots 🥲 Guess I know what I'm saving up for.

You're welcome! Also these are really lightweight for real and very useful

Very good review. I had a DC-550 but its screen quality was worse than the screen on my S5II. It's about the shadows, a very small tonal range. How does the screen quality of the DC-550 compare to the DCX2? Of course, apart from maximum brightness.

I get what you mean about the vintage look of lenses, but this is a spectacular camera and it's my daily driver as a professional.. The autofocus is a major upgrade from the Z6II and I now use the ZF as the main body for headshot and portrait work, paired with a large Tamron 35-150. Love this camera.

Wow.. Lovely images. Did you use a built-in profile or modify the colours later?

100% it’s not weather sealed.

These stills look great! I just pulled out my old Sony A57 with the 1.8/35 lens on it. This thing takes great pics but no 4k!

Solid choice for a portrait lens! Anyone think the Viltrox has the edge over the TTArtisan 56mm f1.8 in terms of creamy bokeh and clarity?

curios what aperture your mostly use on this lens? your jpeg photos are great.

Watching reviews of this camera shows me people don't really know it that well, and that's okay. Nikon doesn't make it easy.But once you learn the camera, all the things people are complaining about are not an issue and actually make a lot of sense, nikon, engineers aren't dumb. They designed this camera this way for a purpose.

Nikons implementation is actually better if you want to photograph in A, S or P mode you are not forced to turn all the dials forth and back like on Fujifilm.

Just use Voigtländer lenses which are available for Z-Mount and they are very retro.

It’s such a pleasure to get so many pleasing sample images in a KZbin video, as opposed to just a gear review 😉 Not a single second wasted watching this. Love it! Thanks, and please keep it up!

@hunterhart1 I just recently discovered your channel, being attracted by Leica content initially, cause I got my Q just now (i believe the context is very important 😂🤷‍♂️). And despite that I’m a designer, not a photographer, thus photography is deliberately just my hobby - you bring so much value for me. So I just wanted you to know that your videos are like a deep breath of fresh KZbin air 😅 The energy, the “straight-to-the-pointness”, the amount of great pictures, genuine style and vibe… thank you for all of this. You inspire a lot!

Dude I am interested in getting an M10 as well and was researching. He is like the first guy on KZbin or the on the internet with a review, who’s not just talking about how nice the camera feels and looks, but he is actually sharing some of his work. A lot of leica people (on social media or internet), who are overtly praising this camera, you never get to see their work. I probably know why. Just because you spend a shit load of moneros on a camera, doesn’t make you a good photographer.

I got two Canon R5M2 and never looked bad on my Canon 5DM4. I even upgraded to RF lenses. RF 85m F1.2 + Rf 70-200 Z + RF 28-70mm + RF15mm - 35mm. I get what you are saying... i just cannot afford not being able to capture the perfect moments. No having two Canon R5m2 doesn't make me a better photographer.

Great review. I’ll probably buy one of these. I was going to the shinobe ii for the touch to focus but it’s not compatible with canon cinema cameras. The other than the hdmi coming out of the side, this looks better in every way.

I got a x100f for $700 about two weeks ago and ive been loving it. I wanted the v, bit now i wouldnt mind waiting for the next one after the vi. Even then, i am genuinley happy with sticking to the f.

umm comparing a cosina.. Argus, to a Leica is ridiculous..

Half the video is about the LOOK of the lenses. I had every "high end" fujifilm camera and this ZF BLOWS all of them away IF you are a real professional photographer . You seem to be a designer not a pro photographer. It is a tool. Not a dress.

nice review, one question...can i shoot on the s&q mode with 120 fps and see the image on the monitor?

Fuji fan boys will always cry. You are your own man an know what you need to make your work move forward. Congrats

Man, I've been needing a replacement for my Shinobi 7 but the 5 was too small. This looks like the perfect middle-ground. Tired of having 3 cameras and 1 monitor on video shoots. Also USB-C power is amazing. I already sorted things out with the V-mount setup but in case a follow focus needs draw, this means you can plug it into the other usb-c port on the v mount

The newest 406v is absolutely amazing!!! Plus WiFi capabilities allow you to completely bypass the computer requirements for downloading roms onto your SD. Now you can do it straight from the console itself and even use that new SD for other models that aren’t capable of internet connection. Ambernic is birthing incredible new standards in the handheld community

Hi Hunter! Great video. I currently shoot with the Canon R5 and have been looking at changing to the Fuji GFX 100s ii. How is manual focusing? With my R5 it's not too bad with Focus Peaking. Can you zoom in and use focus peaking at the same time on the GFX?

ZF camera body isn't crippled, as this video suggests. It's the retro-styled 40/2 and 28/2.8 lenses which have no aperture ring. So in that case, if you want an aperture ring, then the lens is crippled, not the camera body. I have plenty of vintage manual focus lenses with aperture rings. I have pair of ZF bodies, and these are my favorite camera bodies to date. They're not crippled like the old Nikon DF (Crappy D600 AF module and 1/4000s SS), while being priced $700 less than said DF. For the grip gripe; I support the camera from the bottom plate (or lens if it's larger) in my left hand, not with the grip. I've been doing it this way since my old Pentax K1000 days.

Finally a video with fucking good photos to look at.

I’ve had mine for a few weeks and the only thing I would say is to upgrade to the viltrox npf750 battery for extended battery life if not powering externally

Love the photos and colours! How did you manage to nail the focus when the model was moving towards you at 7:22?

Do you use an ND filter on the typoch? Some of the photos looks like wide open aperture in daylight. I imagine you’d get clipped highlights since minimum ISO ≈ 160 ?

Awesome video! What are the lenses you recommend on this video?

gross, digital, try shooting a real camera

Not fair, use the f0.95 with the sony

„straight out of the camera” means JPEG in you case? It looks rather like a good post processing on raw files.

Ordered mine for 50$ for nikon Z30

Stunning shots! You are a gifted photographer.

You do have Ideas for a shooting. Well done!

I have 2 GFX cameras ...image quality on social media is barely noticeable.. Printing..GFX easily 😮

Your work is BEAUTIFUL. You have an amazing eye, and you’ve created amazing art that will last lifetimes for people during some of the most special moments in their life. Thank you for sharing this.
