Wow, I think camera manufacturer’s are getting desperate. Fuji is knocking $1000 off their 50MP GFX 50R at @BHPhotoVideo plus a ton of other Fuji gear is slashed about that much. If had the money and wanted an upgrade, now is the time.

I have an older version of this camera and the photos out of it are incredibly good. It also has raw processing built-in so you can do quite a lot to avoid post processing entirely on many photos. 50MP is also more than enough for decades of work too.

I however may be selling my fuji as my photography needs changed dramatically when I did my big world tour last year. The Fuji is amazing, but the one I have is a BEAST. It’s massive, and while the photos are great I needed better video quality to film my locations.

I ended buying an Olympus OM-D E-1MX instead as it hit everything I need on a paintinn/filming trip. The camera and lenses are about 1/3rd the weight and size, 1 lens goes 24mm-200mm at constant f, and the stabilization is unreal. I AM NOT KIDDING IT IS ABSOLUTE CREEPY MAGIC.

It does super fast 20MP photos, 50MP hand held or tripod combined shots, 4k video stabilized even with a 800mm focal length hand held! I sat in a car driving through Laos with 300mm (600mm equiv) lens filming 4k log video hand held with no shake. Rarely used a tripod.

Sadly, I dropped that camera after getting back to the US like a moron and wrecked it completely. 4’ drop to hard cement on the body corner is not a good thing for cameras.pic.twitter.com/uNhTgpgA4Y

Oh well, life goes on. I may replace it with the new OM-D E1M they came out with in Feb. That’s basically the same camera as the one I broke, but 1/2 the size, 2x the CPU, a star photk mode, but no GPS (which I didn’t use anyway). That would save me on travel luggage for sure.

Interesting! Weirdly, at the lower end (or at least video optimized cameras), there has been a run on units b/c of everyone working from home. I got lucky and got my camera and my HDMI capture (CamLink 4K) before they were unavailable. The CamLink is going for 4x it’s price
