So, which Fuji model (mirrorless/DSLR, medium format/crop etc) do you think is the best for use with vintage manual focus lenses and why?
Most designed-for-FF lenses can cover more than 36x24mm, and many can fully cover the GFX sensor. Me like big sensor.
Just the other day a thread popped up at the MF lens forum with a long list with lenses that works with the GFX in max resolution: http://forum.mflenses.com/list-of-mf-lenses-on-fuji-gfx-t83733.html
Why don't I have one?
1. Not very compatible with my Sony A-mount and E-mount lenses.
2. Expensive.
3. Not a fan of Fuji colors (but I'd live with them ).
I've seen quite many portraits taken with vintage FF lenses on a GFX and they do look really good since the DOF gets enhanced due to the crop factor. Jonas Rask uses Minolta SR-lenses, see here: https://jonasraskphotography.com/2017/08/16/minolta-x-fujifilm/

The a7R V is the fifth iteration of Sony's high-end, high-res full-frame mirrorless camera. The new 60MP Mark IV, gains advanced AF, focus stacking and a new rear screen arrangement. We think it excels at stills.
After weeks with a production Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Chris and Jordan get into more detail than they could in their initial review.
Topaz Labs' flagship app uses AI algorithms to make some complex image corrections really, really easy. But is there enough here to justify its rather steep price?
