Fujifilm found a way to make their GFX 50R seem cheap

They launched a 100MP big brother at double the cost!  :rofl:

Don't get me wrong, this camera looks remarkable.  Just way out of my budget.  $10,000 and it doesn't even include any glass.

Well it's a pricey camera that's for sure.  But Fuji did cram it full of awesomeness.  Just can't justify the price either.

Man, what I wouldn't do for that camera.  Pricey, but beautiful camera.

I'm waiting to see more reviews pop up on this camera.  Not that I'm going to shell out 10 grand for this thing.   I think its just amazing where some manufactures are going with their technology.

For a medium format, this is priced very nicely.   When you consider from an engineering stand point, this camera is extremely innovating and equally impressive.  I'm surprised they moved away from the more retro feeling their other cameras have.  I'd bet many of the hard core Fujifilm fan boys and girls will not be happy about that.

I don't think the price has anything to do with features or capabilities.  I think it is probably a result of low unit volume.  Operating a production line gets cheaper with more volume and a camera like this doesn't get very far in terms of unit volume.  Probably a fine image maker, however, for those that can justify it.
