GFX100RF preorders at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FotoErhardt, Fotokoch, WexUK.

Fujifilm’s one big goal when designing the new GFX100RF was to make it as compact as possible. So let’s check how the new camera compares with other models:

GFX100RF vs GFX 50R (the smallest interchangeable medium format camera to date):

GFX100RF vs Leica Q3

GFX100RF vs Sony RX1rII

GFX100RF vs FujiFilm X100VI

I think they achieved their goal. Of course at cost of the IBIS and a very slow lens. But for some this might not be a problem!

If Galaxy NX was a success and other brands jump onto the same bandwagon, we could had a lot of interesting features on the cameras today. This video we are going to explore which features we could have had.
