GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Portrait, Street & Documentary Photography — GFX 50R (2018): The most portable GFX camera of its era — 51MP in a rangefinder-style body for photographers who want medium-format quality with a more discreet form.
Retro Compact Collectors — Cyber-shot DSC-T700 (2008): A touchscreen Sony from 2008 — the DSC-T700 was ahead of its time with a 3.5" touch display, but belongs in a collection rather than a kit bag today.
