I'm a retired software salesman that has returned to my lifetime hobby of photography in full force. 60 years ago, I hated using a Yashica TLR for my high school year book photos. I could not imagine anyone wanting to go back to that mirror image framing/aiming situation until I heard the idea of a TLR where "T" means "Two" and not "Twin". Interesting idea. I'd give anything to not having to expose my A7R sensor to dust every time I want to change lenses. And the best motivation I've seen for medium format is Iceland. I came back with the best landscape photos I've ever done using my A7RIV. I since bought a GFX 100S and am doing my best to really start using it to its full capacity before my next trip to Iceland. The sooner the better. Thanks for a great job guys. Keep it up.

Tim here, I was one with the A9 question. Thank you for answering! Decided to switch to micro four thirds and picked up a G9ii last week. Came to the decision after consuming all your videos about the OM1 and fact Chris uses one for as his work. Paired with a 20mm/1.7, 35-100/2.8 and 100-300 for far less than my Sony gear. So far living the compact size, makes it easy to carry around and even taken it skiing to get pics of my daughter. This weekend I'll be trying it out t a local ice lake race. Thank you again! Love the podcast!

as someone who exclusively shoots motorsports; either stick with Sony and get an A1 (or A7iv, though I've not used that) or switch to Canon and get an R6ii or R8. In motorsports, autofocus is BY FAR the most important attribute to a camera and nothing out currently can touch a modern (as in release in the last 3 years) Sony or Canon. I love the look of the Fuji and adore all the features Panasonic is including, but their AF is a full generation behind. The Sony/Canon are almost telepathic when it comes to vehicle/helmet tracking. When using a native Sony/Canon mirrorless lens (with the linear focus motor), your in-focus hit rate will be up in the 90%-tile, meaning out of a burst of 20 shots from a vehicle pass nearly all of your shots will be in perfect focus, and you're selecting which shot has the best composition/angle rather than selecting the 2-3 our of the 20 that were actually in acceptable focus, like with other systems with inferior AF tracking. Same goes for video, it doesn't matter how good the video capabilities are, if the camera cannot track a car/bike as it zooms by at +80mph, then it's no good for motorsports application. You can pick up an R8 for $999 from the Canon refurbished store if you're patient and the cheap RF100-400mm lens has amazing tracking capabilities with it's linear focus motor. I've not used an A7iv, but if it's anything like the A1 in subject recognition speed and track consistency, then it too would be a fantastic option if you want to stick with Sony. We have a very specific need as compared to a portrait for landscape photographer and if you buys the wrong camera, you will be at a significant disadvantage in this genre..

Honestly, I think the Nikon Z8 would be a much better choice than m43, weight and size aside. It's basically a natural upgrade of the a9. a7IV like Chris said is also a great choice in terms of price, if you don't need fps faster than 10fps.

To Chris’ question about why would anyone choose medium format over full frame? Why would you go full frame if you can get the same quality from APS-C? If you had a 100mp full frame camera, the sensor would have substantially less dynamic range than the medium format. I think the question is less about sensor size and boils down more to use case and image quality. I think you don’t get a substantial increase in IQ for most use cases in full frame vs. APS-C but a medium format sensor is substantially larger than full frame sensors so one could argue a proportional increase in IQ. This works if this leap in IQ is necessary for your use case. I still believe APS-C is a much more sensible approach compared to other sensors.

Not in terms of resolution, but in terms of Color accuracy, smoothness of rendering, dynamic range,…we are in a totally different league there. The files out of the camera are basically,….perfect. No need for post.

I have grown really fond of the Fuji GFX100s, which I picked up second hand 2 years ago. The image quality is great, the lenses are great, the files are great for editing, it's just a wonderful camera to use. But you have to use it at its strength, for slow paced photography. If you need fast autofocus tracking, high video specs etc. it's not the right the camera to use. Sure you can approach aspects of the image quality with full frame, but I love this Fuji more than e.g. the Sony A7iv I also use. And when it comes to aspect ratios, I really like shooting 65:24 (panorama) and square, which is great on a 102 megapixel sensor, as there is plenty of resolution to work with.

Thanks guys. I always enjoy your podcast, partly because you often challenge my own prejudices. I am primarily a medium format photographer, and I am a professional photographer. I specialise in large prints (call it fine art if you will, although that’s a bit of a marketing term). My primary camera is still the GFX100, which is five years old. I haven’t updated it to the GFX100ii largely because it is still the same 102MP Sony sensor that we saw introduced with the GFX100 and later the Hasselblads (forget the marketing claim by Fujifilm that somehow the 100ii has a “new” sensor). You started the segment on MF commenting that it only seems to change every ten years or so. For me the last fundamental change was the 102MP sensor. I am thinking the next sea change in MF will be a new sensor innovation, either a stacked 102MP sensor or a Global Shutter. On the last possibility Sony already has a 120MP GS sensor that it some five years old now but has only been available in technical, industrial applications. This will be the next frontier. I’d welcome your views.

I can help. As a professional working in the industry I have both systems - the Fuji is far more advanced in terms of range of lenses, optical add ons such as ext tubes, T+S lenses - telephoto with a supposedly 500mm at some point!!- however the Fuji falls down in several areas when compared to the Hasselblad X system - 1st - focal plane versus Leaf - or Central Shutter - in our studio we always reach for the Hass when it comes to portraits - it is quicker to set up than the Fuji - outside though its the Fuji. When it comes to commercial the Fuji and our old Hasselblad H6D100c are still king - image quality - the Hass has more natural colours - lifelike - real - the Fuji is a far more complex machine - it is heavier and takes more time to set up - and there is always the danger that you have either forgot to turn something on or have something turned on or off that you didn't expect - we also have a Nikon ZF for fun and a Leica Q2 Mono - but the Hass will always be the favourite - we also use it on a Linhof Technical - but its fiddly to get right - and takes time - the Hass is not weather sealed the Fuji can work in pouring rain - the Fuji is more robust - but the Hass 907x now with 100c is my personal favourite as it can sit in the palm of your hand shoot with one finger and at waist level - I love it - but if you want a complete system = then Fuji - if you want natural sweet central shutter firing at higher speeds with the new XCD 2.5mm (and same filter size as all of then) the Hass works that in better - do not even think of buying the optical viewfinder for it - it's a gimmick which does not work- also now the 100c comes with a dedicated flash bracket for triggers - something its smaller sibling was unable to do effectively - we use Broncolor and Elinchrom for different purposes and it's now flawless - hope that helps - good luck

I believe that the key of a future for MF is to be an alternative to film. People that have a high performance Sony, for example, for sports photography and wants to "change" to trigger creativity. The experience of shooting a 907x is totally different, not only because of the camera's form-factor but also because it's 4:3 instead of 3:2 forcing a different compositions. The idea of $63K is new: You can still get the H6D with a 100 big sensor (like Phase One) for 32K and it hit 25K new when introduced, but there was almost no market and Hasselblad dropped it. And that is a problem, the photography market is contracting, so having a smaller market share of a reducing market don't look nice.

I agree 1000% that lenses should be recognised as their FOV (for the image circle (ie extreme corners -- ratio format doesn't matter) when at infinity focus.) What's this confusion about Full Frame Equivalent FOV? That's just FOV (unless you're referring to say DX vs FX mode -- but each of those lenses have their own FOV. FOV is FOV. There is no full frame equivalent thought needed. That's the whole point of using FOV. Grow some, and start using FOV. Everyone will quickly get use to it, just like people have to get use to mm when starting photography, when really it should be FOV all the time from the beginning. FOV is the great unifier. Fuji should jump on it first as they have two main mount lines.

First let me say that I love the podcast and I find the reviews by Chris and Jordan to be both informative and amusing. It also seems to me that Jaron would be an exceptional presenter and posseses great knowledge and experience and should consider making videos in addition to the podcast. That said, sometimes Chris goes totally off the rails. His desire for a mirrorless TLR is bizarre. Mirrorless and TLR are mutually exclusive. After all the purpose of using a TLR was to provide the ease of use of SLR without the significant vibration and noise of an SLR. And mirrorless cameras have already eliminated the mirror and the associated slap. What Chris seemed to actually want is he ability to look down to view the image. So I would suggest what he really wants is a Hasselblad 503cw with a digital back. Of course with the tilting screen he could really accomplish that with most mirrorless cameras just by tilting the screen up 90 degrees. This of course is obviously possible with the Hasselblad 907x 100C. BTW: when you review the Hasselblad 907X 100c I would love to have you include the use of it on a Hasselblad V series camera, perhaps with the 100mm lens.

Full frame equivalent field of view is the perfect way of measuring equivalence. All removable lens cameras have lenses measured in actual focal length so if compared with different size sensors they need an equivalence to see the field of view in one’s mind’s eye. All fixed lens cameras from phones to Leica Q2 to superzoom bridge cameras always have lens focal lengths converted to equivalent full frame field of view/focal length, hence no conversion necessary because the sum is done for you and printed on the lens. No change needed or if it is, swappable lenses for all sensor sizes should similarly be printed with the full frame equivalent just like compact and fixed lens cameras.
@TimvanderLeeuw6 ай бұрын
And another comment, about lens focal length vs field of view: it’s something that I’ve thought about before but for interchangeable lens camera systems that will not work either. Because if the camera system has full frame and APS-C cameras in the same lens mount then already you need to mark your lenses with two different fields of view. Then you get the different crop factors between Canon APS-C and other systems which will slightly change field of view, and then you adapt your Canon EF mount lens to a Fuji mirrorless and it’s not the same field of view anymore. Or mount it on a m43 camera and it’s still narrower. At least the focal length can be somewhat correlated to depth of field.

Or, charging $200-300 on a license model that forces users to upgrade when a new camera's released the next year is outrageous, (they basically just provide new camera RAW support for less than a year after the licensed is purchased), I had to purchase Capture One 22 (with literally no useful feature updates from Capture One 21) just so I could get RAW support for a7IV.

One thing about Hasselblad is their amazing color science. For me if I added MF it's the Dynamic Range and the Color not necessarily to print super large prints. You cannot beat Hasselblad Color right out of the camera. And with Fujifilm 100ii has 20 film simulations and now with the added Reala When I started photography I was a Hasselblad film shooter. I had 4 film backs loaded with the different Kodak and Fuji colour and B+W films. I switched back and forth on what I was photographing. For me that was essential. But today we are the color editors not like before when the lab did everything for us. Having either of these cameras helps us to have amazing images with a lot less playing and adjusting on the computer. I agree today between FF and MF is so much closer than the old days of 35mm vs 120 film.

The digital medium format talk is interesting in that medium format typically gets downplayed vs full frame. It’s ironic because it’s the same type(s) of argument APSC had vs full frame when full frame was less ubiquitous and the ‘expensive digital option.’ I have yet to meet a regular digital medium format user who willingly takes the IQ hit from medium format to full frame unless they have a specific need to address (speed, size, etc). Even as ‘cropped medium format’ it’s hard to go back. As digital medium format continues to drop in price, increase in speed, and gets into more hands, it’d be ironic if full frame is the format that gets squeezed between the economics and size of APSC and the IQ of digital medium format.

Guys please, don’t fall for the double buffer ram excuse as not being able to do some of the new features back to the OM-1. It’s a PR statement. The OM-1 already can shoot HHHR keeping several RAWs in ram. It is quite understandable the new ND features (and obviously the longer continuous shooting) and perhaps the 14-bit RAWS for HHHR and tripod HR to require the new ram. But improved general AF should be quite doable for the OM-1. If anything, at least investigate/research this and don’t just take a company PR statement at face value. It sounds very fishy, and one of the best ways for them to start to lose customers is to do exactly that: you want better AF / buy a new camera. More so with their promise on their website of keeping your gear current with substantial firmware upgrades and more so when the OM-1 AF regressed in some areas compared to the EM1 MKIII.

As an invested(and very happy) Olympus user: If JIP follows their runout/rundown method ala Sony Vaio laptops, I really hope someone else can buy out OM System and bring life back to the system. I originally thought Panasonic, but they wont make the Olympus lenses fully compatible, which rules them out. Maybe DJI if they run both Hasselblad and OM System brands? DJI is fwd looking and would do a great job me thinks..But probably no chance for the Japanese to sell to a Chinese company.. Who else then please??

Why don't we change the name of everything instead of calling it full frame we just call it 35 mm. And then whatever we need to call the Number for medium format. We just call it a number. So if that number is equivalent to. I think 27 mm or whatever it is we just call it a 27 mm camera and then we call the APC camera23 mm or whatever the equivalent is, we actually call the cameras by the millimetre from the full frame measurement it would make the whole thing so much easier for photographers to understand and for people outside of Photography wanting to get into Photography I think the terminology that we used is actually made it more confusing and more daunting for many people

Capture One is long in the tooth at this point. And I've refused to renew my C1 subscription because they've abandoned my IQ3 on mobile.

Yes, it's a baby 645 compared to the IQ3, but the image quality is getting there.

@@luciensims From what I can see online, you are likely spot on regarding Phocus. But the shortcomings of Phocus do nothing to elevate C1 from its own pit of ills. If layoff rumors at C1 are true, it's likely that the guys at Axcel are in the beginning stages of bleeding as much cash as possible out of their C1 investment, before allowing it to slide into obsolescence. Adobe's AI has left C1 (and Phocus) standing in the rearview mirror covered in attic dust. With deep layoffs, I don't see how C1 can ever hope to close that distance.

The OM1 MkII may be a fairly minor evolution, but it does mean that future OM1 (MkI) firmware updates will exclude added features. The OM1 MkI is now discontinued or "fully replaced" in their words. If there are future firmware upgrades, they will add support for new lenses, and that's about it. Yes, there is a ram upgrade in the new camera (which should have been included with the first version), but I don't believe that all the improvements are dependent on this added ram. Here's a question. How long before OMDS gives up on supporting the OM1 MkII? Will support for this new camera last 2 years too? Or will they add some more ram and "fully replace" the MkII? This question alone keeps me from upgrading to the MkII. Maybe I'll wait for the MkIV.

I think one major "feature" of medium format that hardly anyone (who hasn't worked extensively with 120 film) talks about is how there's a great deal of lens compression that can be introduced in the same field of view, compared to smaller sensors. This is what a lot of photographers who prefer medium format want out of the format, and it's not necessarily related to higher dynamic range or resolution or anything like that. The photos genuinely look different, because a photo taken of the same scene using a 50mm lens on a FF camera and 80mm lens on a 6x7 format camera will have vastly different degrees of distortion/compression owing to the lens.
@robmcd6 ай бұрын
This is the entire look explained perfectly. I love 35mm but it lacks the magic of a 50mm so I’m really keen to try out the 55mm on MF. But with Capture One on the rocks maybe it’s better to choose Hasselblad for Phocus.
@@PetaPixel I'm talking about lens compression, which is completely different from depth of field. To be clear, I've seen this video before and I agree with the general conclusion that the bokeh effect is more or less achievable on FF with an 'equivalent aperture' lens. What's not achievable is having the FOV of a 50mm lens with the compression of a 80mm lens, which is quite useful for street photography or portrait work. Anyway just my 2 cents.

OM Digital could have integrated some nice FF=>M4/3 speedbooster in that large FF 150-600, then it might be interesting with more light gathering. Pentax 645 is done, they discontinued most lenses selling just some stock and last product was introduced in 2016. They should also quit trying the FF, which relyes on several overpriced rebadged Tamron OEM lenses that are no longer produced anyway.. and just focus on APS-C and make some proper cameras again like in K10D - K5 era.
