Fujifilm GFX 50R

Name: GFX 50R
Brand: Fujifilm
Availability: InStock

The Fujifilm GFX 50R brought the 51.4MP medium-format sensor of the GFX 50S into a slimmer, lighter rangefinder-style body — the most portable Fujifilm medium-format camera available at the time. Its flatter profile and lower weight made it appealing for street and documentary photographers who wanted medium-format image quality without the bulk of the SLR-style 50S. Like the 50S it uses contrast-detect AF and has no IBIS, but the weather-sealed magnesium body and dual SD card slots made it a capable field camera for those prepared to work within its limitations.

GearFrame's Take

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.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
