      Thank you! I’ve heard Panasonic sensors are great! I do t have any experience with their lenses. I would say out of the ones currently. The Nikon sensors are the best in my opinion and their higher end lenses are really good but very huge.

    Hello. Tell me at 19:19 minutes, what profile and editor did you use on Canon? If it’s native DPP, with the “EMERALD” profile, then the color should be more pink, like the paired one from Fujifilm GFX.Yes, and Canon is in no hurry to add 16 bits to its cameras yet. Maybe in three years. In the meantime, the tonality and volume of the Medium Format are noticeable and striking.A new camera will appear, 100 megapixels from Canon, with 16 bits. It will be interesting!!!

    Can the canon ef 50mm 1.2 be used for your the technique in your course? Or should I get the sigma 50mm 1.4 art instead as you recommend? The rf 50mm is too cost prohibitive and I have no 50mm's so I will need to buy one. I only have tamron 35mm 1.8 and 85mm 1.8 and 135mm f2. Thanks!

    • @SNAPAVELI

      @@SNAPAVELI Thanks! It is just that they are not that different in second hand price where I'm from. $770 for the canon ef 1.2 and $600 for the sigma 1.4 art. So i am tempted by the 1.2 aperture. The older sigma 1.4 hsm is just $240 though.

      That’s a tough question! I had the ef 50 1.2 for a year and it was love hate, it’s really soft wide open. Beautiful bokeh but 1.2 was very soft. If you could test both it would be really helpful. People bring the sigma 50 1,4 to my workshops and it performs well.

      @@SNAPAVELI I could probably live with trading softness for bokeh on outdoor shoots. But based on what you said that it is easier for the sigma to achieve what you are teaching because of the larger front element, I would probably go the sigma art route now. And just take out the 135mm if I really need more bokeh. Thanks for the replies!

    Very good and thorough comparison I must say the Canon R5 is just a beautiful camera. I had it and because of TH-cam and all these reviews of the Sony cameras I changed to Sony. And then Iwas so disappointed because of the very poor autofocus performance. I’m so surprised that no one on TH-cam talks about this big problem (in forums they do…), it always hit on the eyebrows or on the eyelashes and the iris was always unsharp ( I want perfect performance like the canon’s and no post production faked sharpening…) I talked to many people from Sony at events and even send it in for repair but in private they told me the camera just can’t do it better. And I should change back to Canon which I did now having the Canon R8 and even with 24 megapixels I am so happy with the camera I just missed the IBIS but that’s fine because the camera is very small. Now I ordered the Fuji 100 s Mark two and I will try it out and keep the Canon system for sure at the same time. Thanks for your content definitely followed you :)

    • @SNAPAVELI
      @SNAPAVELI  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you! I totally agree with you. I jumped around for a while between Nikon Sony and canon. Canon has the most reliable autofocus in my opinion. I also like the colors. Nikon and canon has better dynamic range at times but nothing beats the gfx files in my opinion. I’m currently saving for a 100ii myself. R5 and 100ii will be a great pair for me.

  • @Makta972

    Yeah great image quality from that Gfx. Great colors separation. But man if you want the best colors and files from Canon you should try the R3. There's something special about the files from tham cam. The WB is way more precise which I found is helpful as a starting point even in Raw, then the colors are better/ deeper on the R3. The dynamic range is also better ( probably not medium format level) and the files are less digital in my opinion. Don't let that 24mpx fools you, it's the best image from a canon camera.

  • @tom_k_d
    @tom_k_d 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Stop the RF 85 1.2 down to 1.4, and separation will be much better: owning this lens myself, this bleeding is imho less a camera but rather a lens thing - stopping down to 1.4 fixes most of this. The Fuji lens doesn't get that fast, even taking into account the crop factor. A fair comparison would be RF 85 1.2 stopped down to 1.4 vs 80 1.7 wide open on Fuji (both approx. at 1.4 full frame equivalent). To use the RF 85 1.2 wide open with premium results, good lighting is needed. It's a sharp lens, but not that contrasty at 1.2.

    • @SNAPAVELI
      @SNAPAVELI  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@SNAPAVELI Highly welcome - from my experience with the RF 85, stopping down from 1.2 to 1.4 makes a significant difference in terms of contrast and colour punch. On the other hand, at places with hard theatre or concert lighting, the lower contrast at 1.2 can be beneficial.

  • @matt88169
    @matt88169 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    An AF test with an LM lens would be more meaningful-something like the 45-100. GFX system uses a lot of DC drive lenses and just like their APS-C lenses they aren’t great for moving subjects. So frankly the results tell me two things: Fuji needs to release faster glass and 2) maybe the 100 iii or iv will be the one fast enough for more dynamic shots. The new body seems like a huge jump forward but I don’t think the 55 is a fast lens.

    • @SNAPAVELI
      @SNAPAVELI  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    All I conclude from this video is the AF is just hopeless in the GFX.I don't have the latest but only the GFX50S II, and can't tell enough how painful that camera is when I need some reliable perfect focus image ( i made it sounded like I am the only one want a perfect focus image, LOL), for that reason, I go back to my " inferior sensor" Z9 with 85 1.2 S and 135 F1.8 Plena.

      You don't make any sense bud...."medium format" has more than one definition since it refers to a format size that started in film technology, which is very much outclassed by current GFX sensor capture especially in dynamic range and tonal transitions as well as resolution. "Medium format" in the digital world is a term that can mean a lot of things since "medium format" sensors are just sensors about the size of medium format film camera sizes (6x4.5 all the way up to 6x17 panoramic, especially typically refers to 6x6 and 6x7), but....of what era? GFX is far better than earlier "medium format" digital captures, but isn't quite as good as current medium format digital that costs way way way way way more than a GFX system, but GFX is in use for all forms of work and it clearly is in a league of it's own above DSLR 35mm size sensors, which is what is what was supposed to be case even in film days, but 6x4.5 wasn't always so impressive compared to 35mm films and lenses depending on subject matter and how large the prints to be made would be....so your'e very very wrong bud....there's a lot of context to consider and only a momo would say as a blanket statement that GFX is not a "real" medium format camera or say that the comparison "isn't a good comparison"....congrats on missing a lot of points completely.

      @@locophoto6881 I think you’re confused bud. Calling the GFX medium format is the same as call a crop sensor “full frame”. In fact the gfx is a cropped medium format. It’s not even close. GFX sensor size is only 44x33 mm, which is less than 10 mm larger than full frame of 36 x 24
      While the smallest film medium format camera is 60 mm x 45mm.
      And it only gets larger from there: 6x6, 6x7, 6x9.

No intelligent person argues that something that is 80% like something else is "not even close to being a fair comparison basically" to paraphrase you....when hmmm...seems like 80% progress toward the end zone on a football is field is pretty close to the endzone...and 80% of the way to saving up to pay for a house is pretty close to having a house paid off.....so yep, 80% is very similar to "medium format" especially when the remaining 20% "difference" can be actually better on the GFX side depending on sensor differences and subject matter contexts...and that's not even talking about price comparisons yet, which is a fair attribute to consider when comparing which is "better" or "similar".
