Fujifilm GFX 50S II mit Objektiv GF 35-70mm 4.5-5.6 WR

The GFX50S II brings Fujifilm’s medium format system to a more affordable price point while still delivering more than enough quality for most photographers. By taking the surprisingly compact body of the GFX100S, the 50S II inherits the latest controls and features including built-in stabilisation, but swaps the sensor for the original 51.4 Megapixel model, saving 2000 dollars or pounds. It may be lower res than the 100 Megapixel models, but remains competitive with the best of the full-framers, and in my tests the contrast-based autofocus proved quick and reliable even for filming casual pieces to camera. The lack of 4k video, or even 1080 beyond 30p, is a limitation in the current market, but you can still enjoy good quality results. Ultimately I reckon there’s plenty of photographers who’d be delighted with the 50S Mark II. I loved the GFX100S body, so to have it in a more affordable version with files that still have more than enough resolution for most of us is a win-win. Overall it’s a really tempting option, especially with the new zoom lens.

The GFX 50S II is the least expensive and most refined 50MP medium format camera yet from Fujifilm. Image stabilization boosts the range of circumstances it can be used in, helping it to deliver image quality at the very extreme of what full-frame is capable of. It's not the fastest camera on the market but it can make photography feel special and will deliver the best results this side of Fujifilm's 100MP models if you're shooting the kinds of photos it's strongest at.
