- In this video I talk about the similarities and differences between the Fuji GFX 50R and GFX 50S. Even though they share the exact same DNA, but there are some pretty significant differences. I go thru all of them and finally tell you which one I think is best.

A secret weapon combination GFX50S with Pentax Takumars 6x7 SMC lenses adapted. Beautiful results.
Nice thing about mirrorless is the endless possibility for adapting lenses and ease of manual focus with focus peaking in the EVF or LCD.
Beautiful ! I do the same on my GFX 50s. But I found myself enjoying more canon 85mm 1.2 FD which renders 4x5 or 8x10 look
@@Pentax67 Canon FD 28mm F2 SSC my fav lens
I think Fujifilm cameras are for the professionals because I have seen the programme in TH-cam; there are many more intricate switches which the beginners ( and I myself);will not be able to click properly.
Please reply, " yes" or " no."
great video! I was originally thinking that you were going to lean towards the GFX50s, but after seeing this- I think that the gfx50R is such a great contender with beautiful design. Perfect camera to bring around for non-studio type photoshoots.
Thanks Justin! Both are GREAT cameras. I would only see the 50S more studio-focused due to it's form factor, however i still prefer using USB C to tether and the 50R is fine for studio, especially if you're tethering. Either one is good on location. I took the 50S out on location shoots before the 50R was an option, but prefer the 50R for it's size and form factor. Cheers!
I absolutely love the design of the GFX50S. It is gorgeous. I own two of them and 7 of their lenses. I use the 45, 63, 80 (updated) 110, 120, 250 and 32-64mm as well as the vertical grip, which I rarely use, way too heavy in combination with the body. Have used the 50s for my shoots for VOGUE, ELLE and Numero magazines since getting them a few months ago. I need the rear screen to pivot in portrait mode, as that is where most of my fashion, beauty images reside. I also have the optional tilt eyepiece viewfinder. No nose touching the rear screen problems.
Do you tether with it? And the nose thing was more of a joke :) I really like the S and the R but ultimately the R noses just a bit ahead for me.
@@AdamLernerPhoto I use Capture One Pro and rarely tether unless the client asks to do so. I hate that the AD sees the images before I do. So I generally opt to do my sequence, load the SD card during the clothing change and view during the clothing changes.
@@BenjaminKanarek Sounds like you've got your workflow dialed-in. I greatly prefer working tethered with a Digitech who can help manage the process as the files are coming in. I don't use the LCD when I'm shooting and having a large external monitor to use for lighting, falloff, separation, color and focus reference I find invaluable. The AD typically is on set with me and the model(s) and we don't present until me and my Digitech have a chance to review and select. But whatever works man, right?! I just love the ability to tether to C1 and think its a really powerful way to work with such a brilliant camera whether I'm shooting on location or in studio. I'll tether practically anywhere.
do you guys use the tilt finder adapter for photoshoot? is it worth :)
how does the gfx-r compare vs d850 output
Good comparison, which gave me a clear a view of those two similar cameras
Glad to help!
Even with the new 50s2 out I'm still leaning heavily towards the R for no other reason than size it's more portable for the style of shooting I do. Liked and subbed Adam cheers Paul
The R is a great design and fairly affordable on the used market. The 100s and 50sII share the new body which feels great in the hand. Smaller than the 50S and different than the 50R. It's sort of the best of both worlds. Overall the 100s is hugely superior to the 50 as a camera and spec. That and with so many DSLRs now boasting 50+ mpx, it's not that different. The 100S has a BSI sensor, Phase Detect AF and performs like a modern camera. The 50R has great design but the performance is still the same from 2015. So if you're not in a hurry, it's still a great system and there are now a lot more lenses and adapters available to make the GFX a more viable system. Thanks for subbing and good luck with your purchase!
I have the Tilt Swivel adapter and a battery grip. I absolutely love it on the 50S but the grip does add weight. It would be awesome if the 50R had a grip. The 50S's port design I find to be more accessible and pleasing since I don't have to move things out of the way on a tripod that may have other adapters and/or larger components. They both shoot 1080P video...the gfx100 and 100S do 4K video.
Good points to add, thank you. I'm hoping for an updated 50S with a similar body to the 100S and updated AF and IS.
A 50Rii would be my winner - if it had the dual axis tilt LCD from the 50s.
I actually like the idea of having the separate ISO dial that the 50s has....if you customise the ISO to be on the wheel around the shutter button on the 50r, does that get accidentally nudged on occasion?
I think a 50RII with Phase Detect AF like the GFX 100 would be amazing.
Adam Lerner I’ve only had a play of the 50r & s in a camera shop, so I’ve not got a view on the AF really. I was primarily looking at the GFX’s for use with adapted manual focus lenses, so the AF performance is not high on my ‘wants’ list....but then again, I’m an A7R3 owner/shooter, so when I want/need good AF, I’d use that anyway.
I’d like a GFX primarily to use as a digital xpan/TX.
I’ve also been contemplating Leica M10 for use with some of my old manual focus classic lenses....but, I fear I’d miss the EVF too much.....which is another reason why I was contemplating a gfx, and I don’t think I can adapt all to M mount, but can adapt most if not all to GFX.
I also do Astro imaging & nightscapes, I often use a low view point and very wide angle lens in portrait orientation to include as much night sky as possible, so that explains the desire for an LCD flipping out in portrait orientation.....and why I’m torn between the s & the r......the 50r seems a little like an M10 with EVF to me.
Haha.. 1:18 into it and I made up my mind. GFX50R for sure.
I agree that the R is a nicer choice in many ways. Obviously this video preceded the 50S II which would be my choice today. Cheers!
Hai Adam will iso 50 have more noise than base iso 100 since it's not calibrated at 50 iso
Went with 50s for the *vertical grip and adjustable viewfinder.
Excellent choice. I love the 50S. It's way more versatile.
Smallrig made good case for 50r, which it adds a lot of grip
Yes, I liked adding a grip. Found a good one on eBay.
How do their image aspect ratio options compare?
I need the following:
4:3 native
4:3 with 26x35mm image size
1:1
7:6
5:4
3:2
3:2 with 24x36mm image size
16:9
2:1
2.5:1
3:1
65:24 X Pan ratio
Im not a product specialist so I'd suggest you look directly on Fuji's site for exact specifications.
I can tell you by looking at my GFX50S that it has all of those EXCEPT for the following:
2:1
2.5:1
3:1
4:3 with 26x35mm image size (When you enable 35mm Format Mode, the image size reverts to 3:2 and cannot be changed)
I assume the GFX50R would be exactly the same, but cannot confirm. Hope this helps!
@@AdamTuck1
Thanks, you have been a very big help.
At first I thought Mark Cuban had gotten into photography. You look so much like him.
haha, thanks I guess!
I want that t-shirt.

about size... I am not sure ... to me holding it in the hand the 50R looks a lot bigger
50R is pretty compact compared to the 50S
great video ☝🏻
Hi Adam! The speed of processing the image is the same betwen both? A friend told me that the R has a little lag after taking the pic...thanks!
Hi Diego. Both cameras perform identically. And they both lag between shots.
My Canon 5Ds has the USB-3 and I hate it sooo much.
yea the USB3 connector is the worst!
Just found a 50S for $2200 brand new... Say something to get me to pull the trigger or back away from the ledge lol...
Great price for a great camera. The 50S is still totally valid and useful today and hard to beat the look you get from a large sensor. And now there's such an incredible amount of lens options and adapting lenses. So I can't talk you out of it. It's just that it's a slow workflow and if you can deal with the slow performance, the results will be worth it. Cheers
@@AdamLernerPhoto Copy that ! Hear you loud and clear. I would only use it for portraits, on the side of working on a documentary, and then every now and then I would take some city shots, streets + buildings, etc. No movement.
@@TopshelfJunior Great portrait machine
Interesting ... 3 years later on the used market the prices have turned. The 50S is cheaper to buy used.I guess this will be until a new version of the 50R will be introduced that will be cheaper new than the 50S II. Than the 50Rs will drop to half their current price - or there will not be a new version of the R and it will be one of those cult cameras that will be more expensive used then it's new price
they made so many of these and they're not that precious. best to find one with low shutter because it was probably well cared for.
no OIS on 51.4MP that sound like trouble
No trouble at all. You can handhold mirrorless at longer shutter speeds anyway. OIS would be a nice addition and you have it in the GFX 100 so it's only a matter of time before the 50's will have it too.
@@AdamLernerPhoto you mean ibis
If only they have added a grip and IBIS to the 50R….
Ibis a game changer. Grip is easy to find on eBay
Is it me or am I hearing a different way of saying "connectivity"?
none of them shoots 4k video
who cares, get a FF or APS-C or a MFT... much cheaper and portable.
Buy a Logitech web cam for you 4k LOL
@@artsilva lol, i don't complain. just corrected the video. IIRC he said one or both of them shoot 4k video.
@@SamirPerez15 lol, i don't complain. just corrected the video. IIRC he said one or both of them shoot 4k video.
@@random__handle But WHY would you chose a MF camera to do 4K. The larger the sensor and Mp, the larger file and power you need to do 4K unless it really crops the sensor in recording... which in That case you're better off getting an APS-C 4k camera.
MF is designed for high end stills resolution, Not video.
In video anything bigger than FF is redundant and a waste of money all around. In fact FF is probably over kill in most cases.
Just look at what Hollywood cinema is being shot on, mostly super 35mm which is a cinema crop on a 35MM frame, smaller capture area than your standard FF sensor ratio
Man, your video runs like a shit even at 144p, What´s going on ? Is your problem ? UTube problem ? Or I´m being hacked ?
