Feel the ultimate charm of medium format. The shooting experience of Fuji GFX50S with GF250mm F4R lens.

For Fuji GFX 50S camera, although it has been on the market for a long time, I believe there are still many people who are very concerned about this medium format that breaks the traditional image. After all, it is a medium format model that can be used by ordinary consumers, and it uses a 5 1.4 million pixel medium format CMOS sensor, which is 1.7x larger than Quan Huafu. The high-quality performance is even more shocking. In the first half of this year, Fuji introduced a Fuji Dragon GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens, which can achieve amazing image quality with GFX 50S. It happened that the weather in the imperial city was good recently, and I also experienced how powerful this equipment is.

First of all, shooting with Fuji GFX 50S gives me the most direct feeling that it is convenient. You know, in the past, most medium format cameras and even digital backs were basically inseparable from tripods, or high-speed synchronization of flashlights was needed to get clear and sharp images, and most of the time they were inseparable from the studio. GFX 50S adopts a mirrorless design, which greatly reduces the flange distance of the traditional medium format camera from 60mm to 26.7mm, so it can be as big as ordinary Quan Huafu, or even lighter. Basically, taking out the GFX 50 for shooting will not cause me too much burden.

As for this Fuji Dragon GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens, it can be seen from the focal length that it is a telescope head, and the focal length in 35mm frame is about 200mm. With the F4 aperture of the medium format image field, although this collocation seems a bit cumbersome at first glance, it is actually very light to use, and basically it is not a problem to shoot by hand all the time. You should know that even Quan Huafu's 200mm lens is heavier and bigger than this medium format lens.

As the first large aperture telephoto fixed-focus lens in Fuji GFX medium format system, the positioning of GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens is for super high image quality. The lens structure consists of 10 group 16 lenses, including 1 super ED lens and 2 ED lenses, which can minimize chromatic aberration and achieve excellent imaging quality. Especially the super ED lens can reduce the chromatic aberration fluctuation according to the shooting distance. In addition, this lens can achieve a close-range focal length of 1.4m, with a maximum magnification of 0.22 times and a rich telephoto shooting effect, which is very suitable for close-ups. It is an ultra-high quality lens that I think is most suitable for shooting portraits with GFX 50S at present.

The lens works very well, with an independent aperture scale ring for easy control, and the all-metal mirror body is also very solid and very pressure-sensitive.

With buttons such as focus distance, anti-shake and focus preset.

In addition, it is also worth integrating, that is, GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR.

The lens is equipped with powerful image anti-shake function, and the official said that it can compensate the shutter speed of 5 gears. Although I haven't actually tested it, I used a shutter speed of around 1/60s for this shooting experience. Judging from the actual photos taken, the shooting success rate is very high, and there are almost no waste films. It is really very practical for hand-held shooting, and it can also maximize the high image resolution performance of Fuji GFX 50S.

Of course, the most commendable thing about GFX 50S camera is that the medium format sensitivity needs to match the ultra-high resolution of 565,438+0.4 million pixels, which is not an order of magnitude with the 24 million pixels of the current mainstream Quan Huafu model. Undoubtedly, Fuji GFX 50S, as a medium format, has more advantages in detail preservation and tolerance. Moreover, this time it is equipped with a GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens, which is famous for its high optical quality. Even if the picture is enlarged to 100%, it still has very high resolution and clarity. For example, after the water lily in the above picture is enlarged, the feet of insects on the petals can be clearly distinguished.

The original environment is very chaotic.

At the same time, the higher pixels also provide more space for the later secondary composition cutting. Because the background environment of the focal segment is chaotic, I am not satisfied with the original image, so I enlarged and cut the parrot's head area and made a vertical composition. The 565,438+04,000 pixels of GFX 50S can capture images with a resolution of 8256× 665,438+0.92, and even after large-scale cropping, satisfactory output size can be obtained, which is enough to print out or enlarge on a computer.

Another advantage of GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens is that it is quiet when shooting.

High-speed autofocus, especially when shooting birds and other animals, the quiet environment can't disturb these alert guys. The lens drives the linear motor of the focusing lens to achieve high-precision, quiet and fast autofocus. In addition, a new device is added to the lens to fix the position of the linear motor when it is closed or played back, thus fixing the focusing lens.

Fuji GFX 50S is equipped with 425 AF focus points, which should be regarded as the highest in the current medium format camera. Basically, it covers most of the whole framing picture, even if the subject suddenly appears in the corner, it can be taken care of. You can also quickly adjust the focus position through the focus selection lever on the right side of the screen, which is very flexible to shoot. Because there is no reverse design, the vibration is very small when shooting with Fuji GFX 50S. Even if this is an ultra-high pixel camera, I don't have to worry about taking a wrong picture at all. Through the 100% two-finger touch screen, the focus is basically true. The sensitive touch screen is also a big advantage of GFX 50S. Viewing pictures is basically the same as operating mobile phone photo albums. Because the shutter vibration is small, the GFX 50S is completely separated from the tripod, which makes it possible for the handheld medium format camera to shoot at will in natural light.

The color of Fuji digital camera has always been my satisfaction. On the one hand, Fuji has its own unique color adjustment and powerful film simulation function, and GFX 50S, such as PROVIA, Velvia and CLASS CHROME, also have it, but I personally compare the black-and-white film effect of ACORS, and the transition between light and shade is more natural and smooth.

Overall, Fuji GFX 50S provides excellent image quality performance, which is superior to full-frame cameras in terms of resolution, latitude and high noise control. The sharpness and color contrast of GF 250mmF4 R LM OIS WR lens are also top performance. Close to 200mm focal length, whether shooting portraits or landscapes, can bring shocking blur effect and strong sense of space compression. This combination truly embodies Fuji GFX medium format camera's ultimate pursuit of high quality.
