Pros: Aesthetics, the car is beautiful. Then I share the pros of those who preceded me.
Cons: For me none, but it is not for everyone, and not only because of the cost.
Opinion: Simply fantastic camera, with sublime aesthetics. With that retro taste to which Fuji has accustomed us, enhanced by accessories such as the additional JJC wooden handle, or the aged brown leather half-case. It excites me just looking at it! All in less than a kilo of access to the point! Which for a camera with a large format lens is really a lot of stuff. For the rest, it doesn't bother me that the IBIS is missing or that the lens, moreover excellent, is only f4. I shoot landscapes and street mainly during the day, and if you need to manage poorly lit scenes this sensor has no problems with excessive noise, you can easily operate at ISO by candlelight. In addition, the 100 mpx allow high crops, to the point that with the lens set to 80mm you still get 20 mpx, with the advantage of maintaining both the GD and the 16bit color. In practice, it is like having a 28-65 multifocal lens on FF. The aspect ratio ring is also interesting, even if the image shown in raw is visible at 100%, its use allows more "reasoned" shots, however possibly adjustable in post. The central shutter, very quiet, does not cause vibration problems, and with due care times of 1/30 ° of a second are easily manageable. In terms of images, well, here we are on par with the pornographic aesthetics of the machine. The photos look wonderful, with vivid colors and infinite shades and an ability to recover dark areas without finding truly commendable noise. After all, the format of the sensor is known, its dynamic range is one of its main strengths. The battery lasts a lifetime, the viewfinder is excellent, the display is excellent as well as the built-in ND filter, the screw-on protective filter included in the package is excellent. The aperture ring is a pleasure to move with well-defined clicks and a mechanical noise that makes you understand how this Fuji is built. I like the original metal lens hood very much and unless I use the polarizer I always keep it mounted. As I see it, the RF is simply the state of the art of current digital photographic technology. Of course, being an expensive compact with fixed lens, it must be understood a bit, but those who succeed can only ... love it. I add the very useful possibility of mounting, via filter thread, the excellent Ricoh GW4 wide-angle add-on, thus obtaining a 21mm equivalent lens, with a very affordable expense and without loss of brightness. |
