GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Commercial, Studio & Landscape Photography — GFX 100 (2019): 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.
Street, Travel, Everyday — X-T30 (2019): The X-T3's sensor in a pocketable body. One of Fujifilm's best value cameras.
