Which should you buy?
Commercial, Studio & Landscape Professionals — Fujifilm GFX 100S II (2024): 102MP medium-format quality in the most accessible GFX body — the best entry point to the Fujifilm GFX system.
Sports, Travel & Dslr Shooters — Nikon D7500 (2017): The D500's BSI sensor in a compact, weather-sealed body — excellent high-ISO performance and DSLR reliability at a great price.
Street Portraits & Reportage — Ricoh GR IIIx (2021): APS-C in a shirt pocket with a 40mm perspective — the GR IIIx is the ideal street portrait compact for photographers who want a slightly tighter frame.
Who should buy what

- You shoot portraits, food, or street scenes where 40mm suits better than 28mm wide
