Yes it's that good. If you sorted by price just to see what was out there, know you get what you pay for in this kit.

Coming from Pentax 645z I've always had to carry two bodies - a FF with ultra wide angle and the Pentax. Neither are lite weight. With the Laowa 17mm zero D this solves my problem.

An amazing body. Has just about every feature you've ever wanted. Files are rich in info. Lenses are sharp. AF is surprisingly quick for a medium format. Eye tracking does a pretty good job, better than I expected as long as there is some light on the front of the subject. IS works great for handheld. Images are 5+ star.BUT! I haven't figured out if how to permanently turn off IS. I only use it off tripod and every time you turn the power on you most manually turn IS off. If you forget to turn it off your archi/landscape images will be soft if the exposure is long.Lastly, the Fuji APP SUX! SUX! SUX! Embarrassingly so. Like a Windows based 1990's beta app level. I cannot believe they would make something so useless. Would give the APP a 0 star.

We all knew this camera was coming after the announcement at Photokina last year. I think Fujifilm exceeded expectations. The GFX 50S and 50R were already great cameras, with excellent results from the large sensor. I own the 50S and particularly like the EVF. The new camera moves beyond the earlier models, not only with the 102 megapixel sensor, but especially due to the IBIS and the implementation of phase detect autofocus with accompanying firmware updates for each of the GF lenses. The camera feels similar in size to my D5 and is very comfortable in the hand. To me, the key feature is the ability to handhold this 102 MP camera while still getting reliably sharp results. (I still intend to use a tripod for landscape and portraiture, but it is great having the ... MoreWe all knew this camera was coming after the announcement at Photokina last year.

I really like the GFX 100, but I wish it were even better. I have had the camera for 2 months now, I shot 3 campaigns and another dozen models and catalogs.First, it is the most advanced modern camera I have used. The features are incredible. As a mostly Canon (5DS, 5D Mark IV) and Hasselblad digital (H4D, X1D) shooter for 13+ years, I have been jealous of the features I have seen with companies like Sony. I now feel like I have those modern features like IBIS stabilization and Eye tracking Focus. These features sometimes work amazing. But at other times I am baffled that features like the eye tracking do not seem to work at all. Constantly, the eye tracking is working amazing for 30 seconds, then nothing changes and it doesn't work at all. I haven't pressed ... MoreI really like the GFX 100, but I wish it were even better.

I now feel like I have those modern features like IBIS stabilization and Eye tracking Focus. These features sometimes work amazing. But at other times I am baffled that features like the eye tracking do not seem to work at all. Constantly, the eye tracking is working amazing for 30 seconds, then nothing changes and it doesn't work at all. I haven't pressed anything. I turn the feature on and off, and it sometimes goes back to working perfectly??? Sometimes, it doesn't and I cannot see why from the conditions. And it does affect my shooting as I stop the model from posing and try to get my focus back on them.The autofocus in general is fantastic for medium format. Night and day difference between my older Hasselblad H series camera and much much faster than my Hasselblad X1D camera. And when it works, it it better/faster than many Canons. But the GFX100 is also glitchy. I am not sure if others are experiencing this and I am going to call Fuji. But I cannot figure out why I cannot always accurately move the focus dot on the subject's eye when needed. For example, I will be shooting a waist up shot on a model and have the eye detection on. It is working great. Suddenly, it goes off and my focus dot is on the background. I use the focus stick to move the dot onto the model's face, only to see the dot move immediately back to the background before I can shoot. If I remove the camera from my eye and look at the back screen, I can do the same action and get it to work. But how weird. Happens 10 times a shoot!The IBIS stabilization seems to work great. It does not fix all motion problems, but I literally handheld a campaign photo that would be blown up for a poster at ISO 3200 and 1/15sec at 50mm and it looked workable. It was super lowlight on the beach and I was desperate to get in 1 more dress. I didn't think it would be usable, but incredibly it is.You will need to read the instruction manual (which is well done). There are a lot of buttons and it is very very very customizable. But you can be totally lost. I even recommend downloading the PDF of the manual, so you can key word search queries. I own a lot of cameras, and this one has too many features to be intuitive. I literally couldn't figure out how to put the camera in manual model for 15 minutes as the shutter speed was in a lock mode out of the box.Ergonomically the camera is nice, and I normally shoot with bigger cameras and like a vertical grip. But this camera is big and can be pretty heavy with lenses. I shot today with the 110mm and put in 1000 handheld photos and my arms were tired. Feels heavier than my Canon with an 85mm. If you are use to a Sony or a camera without a vertical grip, you might be in for a shock. People do think it is impressive looking. More so than I expected. There is a wow factor in person.Colors have been a huge issue with this camera as I have been struggling with finding color profiles I really like. Fuji, in a very cool way, has put in all their old films (Provia, Astia, Velvia, etc) as color profiles that you can choose from. It is kind of awesome. But it also isn't working well enough. I am mainly shooting tethered with Capture One and having difficulty getting poppy accurate colors for clothing with nice skin tones. My digital tech and I have been trying to mess with a lot of settings, but I am finding it harder than with Canon or Hasselblad. With my Hasselblad, we literally just set the color balance from a card and a contrast of like 6, and my clients are think I am mostly very accurate on most clothing pieces. But the Fuji is tough with me struggling on both clothing colors and skin tones. I am learning more than I ever wanted about ICC profiles and bought the newest x-rite Colorchecker 2, so I can make my own profiles. But I am getting mixed results. One client Friday did think that the Fuji was more accurate and vibrant on Oranges and Red based colors than my Canon 5Ds I normally photograph their clothing line with. But they preferred Greens and Blues with Canon. I feel that Astia and Provia are sometimes too Orange on the skin. The Pro Negative standard is too washy and subdued on clothing, while the Pro Negative Hi is too contrasty. No other profiles are normal enough to be used in this situation. Even tweaking them in Capture One isn't going great, but I am still working on it. I spoke with the Fuji service line, and the guy said none one else is complaining about this and thought Fuji was the easiest to work with. I feel like I will figure out some great custom profiles, but I do think that Fuji needs a better out of the box neutral/accurate color setting instead of imposing kind of strong effects.The quality, which I think is a major selling point with this camera, is amazing at points, but again I find mixed results. First, if you haven't shot medium format digital, then I think you will see a large increase in quality. The difference between the GFX 100 and my Canon 5Ds 50mp with an 85mm 1.2 new version lens is crazy; almost not comparable. I was shocked to see the difference. But my gut says the Nikon D850 would fare much better than the Canon from what I have seen. However, my old 50mp Hasselblad H4D CCD sensor, seems just as sharp. I haven't done extensive tests, and the one I did wasn't fare to the Fuji. But I photographed a model in a very detailed dress for a catalog with the Hasselblad and tried to take a few shots with the Fuji to compare in the same conditions. The Hasselblad 50mp beat the Fuji, BUT I was on F20 with the Fuji on the 32-64mm zoom lens. And that could have really disadvantaged the Fuji. But that said, I don't think there is a big difference in the studio between the cameras, quality wise. I would put money on the Hasselblad 100mp or Phase to be slightly higher in quality with the bigger sensor and larger pixels, but the Fuji much more versatile.Natural light is a different story. The Fuji is mostly amazing, with some inexplicable times it has less quality. It really took down the Hasselblad X1D on my location campaign shoot and I thought the X1D had great quality in natural light. I was principally shooting with X1D for a client and had the Fuji as a backup. But my lighting conditions got tough as the sun was setting and it drop behind heavy clouds. I saw myself switching to Fuji more and more. The shoot was rushed and I mainly compared the files after the shoot, and I thought the Fuji destroyed the X1D quality wise, and easy of shooting. when choosing shots with the client for poster printing, I had fingers crossed they would pick the Fuji versions. The Fuji is amazing at ISO 800. I feel like I am at ISO 100 with it. After that, I am getting mixed results. Sometimes, 1600 looks great and other times I feel it getting blocky and a little cartoonish. I need to explore more. I mentioned above, I have a campaign photo taken at 3200, so I have mixed feelings. I have some thoughts about which lighting conditions and if slight model movements are being noticed more.Overall, the camera seems to resolve a lot of detail, but that doesn't always mean a better photo. Sometimes, looking at my Hasselblad X1D files, they looked more pleasing and real world sharp. And I see myself sometimes taking down the sharpness on the Fuji as it can look a little digital.The in-camera features like skin smoothing and adding grain are useless to me. I tried shooting raw + jpg with the Skin smoothing and a weak grain, hoping I could get my highest quality raw but also get a somewhat retouched photo for like immediate posting on social media or make a quick print for a model and disliked the results. I don't think I will try that feature again.Being mirrorless, I think the electronic viewfinder is great. I sometimes even prefer it to an optical viewfinder now as I feel like I am kind of seeing my final photo sometimes. Very little blackout. My X1D had a lot of blackout, so the GFX is great.Overall, a really great camera with a few glitches that I am trying to iron out. I don't believe most photographers need this camera. And if you have a Nikon D850, I don't think you will become any better photographer or see an incredible quality improvement.
I use it for portraits and I like to shoot handheld. The detail is wonderful and the excellent autofocus and IBIS give me many more keepers than previous medium format systems. Like other reviewers I find the little buttons difficult to use reliably but once you get it into manual, lock the shutter speed and ISO and set the aperture on the lens nothing muchcan go wrong.I have more problems using A or S modes, particularly with auto ISO, because the ev button is not easy to use reliably.Face and eye detection can be a bit random, but mainly good. I had a problem with the focus point jumping around, as referred to by another reviewer, but solved it by turning off the touch screen. My nose was resetting the focus point!Great camera, but Fujifilm should take a ... MoreI use it for portraits and I like to shoot handheld.

It’s a pro camera and they should aim for that.
My studio 5DSR is getting old and Canon doesn't have a newer studio camera in 2021. So I think it's time to upgrade. I got GFX100 for studio shoot. My main workflow is tethering to Capture One Pro. I use it with 32-64 45-100 110. I also use it with Kipon adapter and Canon EF lenses, 16-35 from 20mm, 100 Macro L, TS-E 24. These lens are not as sharp as GF lenses but they are still very sharp. The only down side for tethering with GFX100 compare to Canon is, while the live view is playing on Capture One Pro, you can't click the shutter. It must be stop before releasing the shutter. Also I could not control the timer from Capture One. These are not a big thing. I just need to adapt my workflow. At the end, this new Fuji GFX system cost less than half of Phase One or ... MoreMy studio 5DSR is getting old and Canon doesn't have a newer studio camera in 2021. So I think it's time to upgrade.

I was so excited to try this body out but Fuji doesn't make the lens I need so I rented the lens adapter with it for the 70-200 canon 2.8. The camera hunted for focus constantly and wouldn't lock in, I tried to manually focus but I photograph horses who move constantly so not really doable. I loved everything about the body that I could see, the feel in your hand and the quality of it and I loved the controls (I shoot canon so I was happy that it was very user friendly and easy to learn) however I cannot review the cameras ability at all because the lens adapter doesn't work. If you're going to rent it rent a Fuji lens too or you'll be wasting a lot of money.Everything else as great and I do plan on using lensrentals again
I moved to this from Canon 5D series cameras for studio product work. I've also used Fuji X series cameras for travel since the original X100 came out. The jump in resolution with the GFX is significant. I was always suspicious about those who said that medium format had a different 'look' to FF. Now I know what they meant - there really is another dimension to the image files that FF doesn't have; hard to describe, but it's there.Downsides? Despite already using Fuji X series for some time and thus being familiar with Fuji's architecture, there's a serious learning curve with this. It's nowhere near as intuitive as the smaller Fujis; the buttons are too small, too close together and there are a multiplicity of assignable options for every single one of them. It's ... MoreI moved to this from Canon 5D series cameras for studio product work. I've also used Fuji X series cameras for travel since the original X100 came out.

It's nowhere near as intuitive as the smaller Fujis; the buttons are too small, too close together and there are a multiplicity of assignable options for every single one of them. It's too easy to inadvertently press something and find yourself in some outlandishly complex auto-mode and not know how to get yourself back. I shoot almost exclusively in full manual mode and it's really not as easy with this body as you'd think it should be. Please give me back my physical dials, Fuji. I'd really like to see a completely stripped down version of this camera but with this sensor and physical dials as on the X series.Then there's the cost. If you're reading this, then you know you're in for an investment, and a loss on your old equipment, but you also need to budget for a serious computer and memory/storage upgrade. My 2015 (high spec in its day) Macbook Pro just laughed at me. 200+MB raw files really makes you focus on the economy of your workflow and storage regimen. You just can't afford to be lazy in the way you can with moderate sized FF files. Because of Fuji's RAF format raw files, I also had to move to Capture One from DxO Optics Pro and there's another seriously complex program to have to learn. So, it's a huge investment in more ways than one.I also assumed that I'd be OK using an appropriate lens adapter with my existing Canon lenses, but despite opting for the best reviewed adapter B&H could provide, that really didn't work out so well at all. Some lenses worked adequately (the T/S lenses, which are completely manual and have a larger image circle) but most were simply frustrating at best and non-functional at worst (the zoom lenses). Compared to the GF45-100 and GF120 macro (which are both astonishing) that I opted for along with the body, adapting the Canon lenses was too much of a compromise to be worth pursuing.Then, there's the dust issue in post. Someone mentioned this, and it's real. You will spend significantly more time in post dealing with dust specs that you couldn't even see in the studio that are highlighted glitteringly under studio flash at this resolution. OK. First-world problem. I'll get over it.Having said all this, I've now got a couple of months experience under the belt and I'm beginning to have a lot more confidence in the system and in the processing. Every shoot nudges the pleasure/pain ratio in the right direction, and I'm beginning to get some really nice results. Four stars for the hardware; five stars for the improved results I'm already getting.Am I happy with the move? Ask me in a few more months and I think I'll be giving you a resounding 'Yes'. Just don't expect fantastic results straight away and be prepared to invest time in it, no matter your previous experience.
Loved this system - it reminded me of my days shooting 120 film on a Pentax 6x7. To my surprise, the camera with lens weighed slightly less than my Canon 1dx mkIII. The 63mm and 110mm lens were perfection. The resulting 102mp files were breathtaking! And, I’m happy to sat that the RAFs were super easy to grade in Capture One. Overall, renting the GFX100 was an amazing experience.
The good: No other Medium Format digital camera has the features of this camera. It is truly a trail blazer in that regard - IBIS, face/eye tracking, full frame Phase Detect AF points, great EVF, etc, etc. I have had 3 generations of Phase One cameras, including the current XF/IQ4-150, and that has none of these features. Well done Fuji.The bad: It is too big and too heavy. Fuji wanted to appeal to pro's and thought that means they should follow Canon/Nikon form-factor and copy their XL premium pro body shape with integrated vertical grip. Wrong. It's 2019, and they should have been looking at Sony, who have all the features the Canon has, plus some, in a body far smaller and lighter. Mirrorless means that - smaller lighter bodies, but... Fuji got carried away, ... MoreThe good: No other Medium Format digital camera has the features of this camera.

Fuji got carried away, and we have to lug this beast around now. Sigh. Fuji always meant MF in a compact body (with their old film rangefinders) but they forgot that legacy. Hopefully they will release a GF*R*-100 somewhere down the line to fix this.If you are used to Full Frame, the quality of the image will be a real step up. If you are used to Phase One, it will be no different. Phase have been at 100Mp for years, and are now at 150Mp. Most of the IQ amazement is from people who've never used MF digital. It is definitely *far better than Full Frame though.Don't bother shooting 16bit RAW. It's a waste of time for all but base ISO (100) with darkest of dark shadow details, and then only the finest of differences. It's just not worth it, despite what anyone else may say. I know, as I've been using Phase with 14/16bit option for a decade now. 14bit compressed RAW should be your default.Oh, and the sensor's dual gain circuit kicks in at 500asa, so shoot at that rather than 400asa, if light means you are about there.Yes, I'm a fussy customer, but at $10k for the bare body, you should be. It is a great camera, I'm keeping mine and putting it to regular use. Can't wait for them to shrink it, or for Sony to release a compact MF body of their own.
