To have features such as fast, accurate autofocus and in-body image stabilisation in an easily portable 102MP medium format camera would have been unthinkable just a few years ago, and if such things existed we suspect they would have set you back a lot, lot more than £5,500. The GFX100S is arguably the most accessible 100MP+ digital medium format camera yet, while offering the stellar dynamic range, detail and narrow depth-of-field associated with the sensor size. That said, it’s still £5,500 (without a lens) and bulkier than a full-frame mirrorless model, so we're not about to suggest this is a camera for the average consumer, or even a demanding enthusiast with a bit of money to burn. That kind of person may well get better mileage from ploughing those funds into a cheaper premium camera from Sony, Canon or Fujifilm’s own X-series and a range of lenses – as the bump in quality you get from the GFX100S is something only the most perfection-seeking of pro shooters will require.
Superb medium format images; Half the price of the GFX100; Compact, lightweight design; User-friendly features;
Still expensive for a camera!;
