Alex Barrera wonders if medium format is worth it, and compares the Fujifilm GFX100S with the Canon EOS R6. It’s a short video so I won’t spoil it, but the answer is “not really” :-)

Sony Alpha a1 vs Canon EOS R5 vs Fujifilm GFX 100S Specification Comparison

Sony Alpha A1

Two new cameras have been announced in the last days, the full frame Sony Alpha a1 and the medium format Fuifilm GFX 100S. Time to compare them with Canon’s EOS R5.

Over at B&H Photo you can use a rather useful camera comparison tool. We tried to compare the Sony Alpha a1 with the Fujifilm GFX 100S with the Canon EOS R5.

Here Is How The iPhone 11 Compares To The $13k Fujifilm GFX 100 Medium Format Camera

Iphone 11

Let’s go for another compare-apples-to-pears post.

It seems the iPhone 11 inspires people to compare it to professional and much more expensive photographic gear. After a comparison with the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, here is another user, Josh Rossi, better known as Photoshop Dad, who compares his medium format Fujifilm GFX 100 to the iPhone 11.

He writes:

In this video, I’ll be comparing the iPhone 11 Pro with the Fujifilm GFX 100. The Fuji medium format camera costs right around $13,000 with the body and lens and is one of the best cameras out there today. The sensor size alone is 1/3 the size of the entire iPhone 11 just for comparison.

Initially, I didn’t want to even compare the two because I thought that the GFX was going to win by a long shot. I was totally surprised when I did the comparison and saw the results on the computer. Even though the more expensive camera obviously wins this battle, the iPhone 11 Pro gave surprising results especially if the viewer isn’t zooming in super close to the image.

I got really excited about it and decided to try and recreate a movie poster. I’ve wanted to do this test for years but Apple’s technology wasn’t up to par yet. Once again I was surprised at the results that were created. I think that the image quality of the iPhone is good enough to print on a billboard, post on social media and even use on big campaigns.

Once more, you have to guess the camera that shot the picture. Enjoy.

Fujifilm Color Science vs Canon Color Science – A Quick Comparison

Fujifilm Color

Most of us think Canon has the best color science of all players in the industry. Period. Many of us think Fujifilm follows close up.

Denae & Andrew posted a rather interesting video where they compare Canon and Fujifilm colors. They used a Canon EOS RP and a Fujifilm X-T3 for the test. Both raw and JPEG files are compared, though it makes more sense with JPEG images in our opinion (at 5:37min in the video). One thing I like a lot in Fujfilm cameras are the film simulations. Wish Canon would feature something similar on their cameras.

According to the comments to the video, people seem to like Canon colors more. What do you think?
