Sony 90mm macro on the a7RII, Fuji 120mm macro on the GFX-50S — corner

March 29, 2017 JimK 1 Comment

This is the twelfth in a series of posts on the Fujifilm GFX-50S. The series starts here.

This is a spillover from the previous post. If you haven’t already read it, you should start there.

Now we’ll look at the upper right corner of the images. I apologize that the part of the scene is not the same between the two sets of shots. That’s because the aspect ratios of the cameras are different.

 

Sony f/2.8– Lightroom defaults 

Sony f/4– Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/4 — Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/4 — No sharpening or lens corrections

No contest.

 

Sony f/5.6– Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/5.6 — Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/5.6 — No sharpening or lens corrections

 

Sony f/8– Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/8 — Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/8 — No sharpening or lens corrections

 

Sony f/11– Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/11 — Lightroom defaults

 

GFX f/11 — No sharpening or lens corrections

 

I will be doing tests of these lenses at macro distances, but I often use macro lenses for general purposes, and both of the lenses acquit themselves credibly used at infinity. The corner performance of the Fuji macro is amazing.
