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 50S — Studio, Portrait & Landscape Photography: The camera that launched Fujifilm's medium-format revolution — 51MP at a price that made serious large-format imaging possible for the first time.
