This 100mp medium format camera produces incredible image quality and offers some of the best features that medium format has ever had. I wanted to see how this camera compared to a much older camera system, an 8x10 large format film camera.

The Best 50mm You Can Buy: Canon RF 50mm f1 2L vs Sigma Art 50mm f1 4 vs EF 50mm f1 2L

The 50mm focal length is one of the more popular focal lengths on the market. Almost every photographer has or currently owns a 50mm prime lens.

Fujifilm is one of my favourite camera companies for a number of reasons. They continually develop new and interesting products and the Fuji X-T2 was noted as being one of the best APS-C cameras when it first came out.
