Like I said I am not expert but nice thing with Fuji GFX is that the focus stacking is built in unlike Sony.

My coworker has the GFX100 for a while now. I had been busy with work, home stuff so didn't get a change to test it out. And now I am not sure how long we are stuck indoors. The Fuji GF lenses were already made to handle 100MP fro the start. I am surprised how good corner to corner they are. The system is definitely more money but usage wise it is worth it, if you into landscapes and portraits. The GFX100 is little too big for me as I am getting older now and being handicapped it is harder for me to carry things. My last vacation I couldn't even walk but still took the GFX50s along with Sony A7rIV and for landscapes I honestly preferred to use GFX so much more. This was when I was walking with two crutches and each step hurt. All the buttons are thought through, flip LCD in both directions, pinch/swipe gestures and the list goes on. GFX100 kicks that a couple of notches higher with new digital control dials, much better AF (compared to GFX50 models) and IBIS. I thought I wouldn't like the new dials but shooting more tethered now, I can see why Fuji went that route.

I would of thought he might have tried the GFX50 after discovering the issue for his kind of shooting with the big brother.

You mentioned your able to shoot portrait and landscape with your GFX50, does it have the same issue with shallow DOF as the GFX100?

Do you have to use the in camera function for image stacking for your landscape, or can you use it like one would with a non medium format camera?

Does the GFX100 also that the in camera function for image stacking?

Any particular reason's you prefer the 50GFX over your A7rIV

Enjoying your culinary skills

Steveston's Fisherman's Wharf was a ghost town. Social distancing wasn't an issue as the area was eerie and quiet. Much needed fresh air ........

I purchased a brand new RX100 mk5A and almost never use it. I decided to see what the 1 inch sensor can do today in easy peasy light conditions. I'm impressed what a pocket point and shoot can do. For a throw in my pocket solution this is worlds better than my iPhone

The better-half and I never leave the house without an RX100x in pocket. Depending on which model I've never seen so many possibilities
in such a small package.

I actually like the way the older one looks too. I'm going to add this lens back in my kit. I sold it to fund the Sigma 35 which I love, but not nearly as fun to shoot at the voigtlander, and CV40 rendering really is special.

All great of course BUT the second one, the dream caught!

In isolation my daughters are making magic in the kitchen. The Wonton noodles were absolutely amazing.

I really find the Sigma 24 f/1.4 ART to be a stellar performer ever since the new firmware update 7+ months ago. AF just isn't laggy now.

A package full of air! With the re-stapling I bet you were thieved upon
Hey, you were killing me with the knife-work! Maybe get a bigger blade!

Red-bellied black snake. About as dangerous as a rusty nail.

Shows what I know about snake ID.
Rusty-nail...hmmmm tetanus can kill

I would like to keep it as well as my Infra Red camera but those two would pay for half the 200-600 so I am stuck. Stupid Covid if I was sure I had a job I might be more brave

Our hospital, which is normally balls to the wall busy, is dead. I'm on flex time. Two of us have been furloughed......we network through 20 or so hospitals throughout our broader southeast area, it's not just us. Rumor mill says we're loosing a million bucks every 4 days. Glad I can retire at will now but would prefer to make it 480 more days.

Knife work? What do you mean? Just because they call me stubby...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure someone opened the envelope along the way and stapled it shut. I've messaged the seller but I have no idea what, if anything he can do about it. If I don't hear back from him shortly, I'll see what eBay can do for me...

I've already bought another timer and if this one makes it to me...and works...I'll take a photo or two of it and maybe even a video of how it works.

I really find that camera to be a nice fun point and shoot due to the 24-70mm range.

Image quality wise I find it decent for a tiny pocket camera. I'll admit typically I'll have the GM16-35 mounted on one of my A73 bodies. The Sony 85 f/1.8 is packed in my thinktank pouch on my spider holster belt. I just have this comfort zone editing my Sony A73 RAW files.

I really had to force myself out of the comfort zone. I do not regret purchasing the RX100 camera. I'm still trying to get my wife to use it more but she insist on using her iphone

If Sigma would make a true purpose-built Sony (mirrorless) version of the 24 Art or 20 Art, I’d buy right away. The 24GM is superb, but I really like the rendering of the Sigma Art wides. I used to own the 20 Art and just loved that lens.

With grip?
I've used silicon body covers for many Sonys for a long time but never found one for body+grip. Find out who please.

I don't watch comics. I like real stuff like 'Walking Dead'

I snuck out for sunrise this morning...the apps said it wouldn't be worth it...glad I didn't listen. It might have been pretty clear out, but I still liked it. Felt good to get some shutter therapy.

I've love to visit 'Genes Bar and Grill'! I've never commented on the sheer variety you stock! Impressive. I think I've venture off the vodka-gin train if ever there. the Malibu rum catches my eye for one.
