March 23, 2025

This week, Mitchell was in Prague to see Fujifilm finally unveil its new fixed-lens 102MP compact medium-format camera, the GFX100RF. Thanks to the advanced access, we've already published our initial review and first look at the rig's video capabilities.

In non-Fujifilm news, Richard published the completed studio test images for the Panasonic S1RIII, verifying the new sensor is up to par. Abby also shared her thoughts on how using the Nikon Zf changed her shooting style. 

We hope you enjoy it all. Thanks, as always, for supporting our work by reading.
