Verdictwhich should you buy?

GFX 100 — Commercial, Studio & Landscape Photography: The world's first 100MP mirrorless with IBIS and phase-detect AF — the GFX 100 was a landmark in medium format, but its size and weight are professional-grade.

GFX 100S — Commercial, Portrait & Landscape Photographers: 102MP medium-format with IBIS and phase-detect AF at a price that made serious large-format imaging available to a new generation of photographers.
