FF equivalent focal lengths of Hasselblad XCD, Fuji GF lenses

November 23, 2022 JimK 2 Comments

Fuji 35-70 GF transfocal bokeh

January 10, 2022 JimK Leave a Comment

There are two important aspects to bokeh. It seems most people, when they hear the word, think immediately of the look of parts of the scene that are for out of focus.

GF 35-70 and 32-64, foliage, corner

January 1, 2022 JimK Leave a Comment

  In the previous post, I compared the Fuji 35-70 GF against the 32-64 GF using foliage as the subject. I looked at the center of the images there; now I’ll look at the corner performance. I set up the GFX 100S as follows: RRS 4-series Versa legs Arca-Swiss C1 2-second self timer ES ISO… [Read More]
