Verdictwhich should you buy?

GFX 100RF — Landscape, Travel & Street Photography At Medium Format Quality: The world's first medium format compact — 102MP, 28mm, and all 20 Fujifilm film simulations in a fixed-lens body.

Q3 43 — Documentary, Portrait & Reportage Photography: The Q3 with the most human lens — 43mm, 60MP, and Leica rendering at its most natural and versatile.
