Fuji 32-64/4 distortion

August 18, 2017 JimK 1 Comment

This is the seventh post in a series of tests of the Fujifilm 32-64 mm f/4 lens on the Fuji GFX 50S. The test starts here. It occurs to me that I neglected to do the distortion testing for the Fuji 32-64 mm f/4 zoom on the Fuji GFX 50S. Let me rectify that omission…. [Read More]

Fuji 110/2 on GFX, off-axis performance

August 17, 2017 JimK 4 Comments

This is a continuation of the development of a simple, relatively foolproof, astigmatism, field curvature, and field tilt test for lens screening. The first post is here. The fine Siemens Stars I used in the last post were OK, but the coarse ones were too coarse. I made binary and sinusoidal stars with 40, 60, and… [Read More]

Fujifilm GFX 50S focus stability with FW 1.11

August 8, 2017 JimK Leave a Comment

Fuji came out with a new firmware image for the GFX. I downloaded it. But I had to disable the gateway antivirus in my firewall first, because it didn’t like the Fuji file: [Added 8/10/17: The above is a screen grab of a portion of the log file of my firewall immediately after the download… [Read More]
