The Fujifilm GFX 50S is the best medium format camera you can buy in this price range, and earns our Editors' Choice. It doesn't do some things that high-end medium format cameras do-the Phase One XF 100MP is our favorite in the high-priced realm and offers a physically larger, 100MP image sensor,...

Medium format image sensor; 51MP resolution; Crisp, modular EVF; Tilting, touch LCD; Dust- and moisture-resistant design; Film Simulation modes; Dual UHS-II card slots; Wi-Fi; USB-tethered shooting

Quirky EV compensation control; Limited lens selection at launch; Modest 1/125-second flash sync

Why have a mini when this costs the same and is better,

The Fujifilm GFX 50S ($6,499.95) isn't the first affordable medium format camera, but its mirrorless design means it's more compact than the Pentax 645Z, which has been on the market for a few years. It also feels more modern—its EVF is removable, and its tilting LCD is sensitive to touch. A 51MP image sensor delivers superb images, even in difficult light, though photographers that need high-speed flash sync will be turned off by a lack of native leaf-shutter lenses. Still, that's a weakness shared by the 645Z, our previous Editors' Choice. The GFX 50S is less expensive and a better camera, so it's our new top pick in the category. Design At 3.7 by 5.8 by 3.6 inches (HWD), the GFX 50S isn't that much larger than a typical full-frame SLR, but its image sensor is. In its body you'll find a 33-by-44mm chip, which is about 1.7 times the size of the 24-by-36mm sensor in Canon's take on the 50MP camera, the EOS 5DS R. An add-on vertical grip is available ($599.95) if you prefer a beefi...

Over the past half decade, Fujifilm has proven it can produce retro-inspired interchangeable lens cameras with excellent ergonomics and outstanding image quality. But as the APS-C X-series has grown, so too has Fujifilm's desire to create a new system with a larger sensor.
