I would think long term the shutter would be replaced with an electronic one as technology improves. Would this not alleviate the need for a leaf shutter ?

 

I'm not surprise about the lack of IS lenses. They might arrive but none of fuji wide angle/short tele have is.

 

You don't only need an electronic shutter, you need a global electronic shutter to do that, so we're not quite there yet.

 

 

Can you elaborate what you find weird with the grip?

 

 

I meant weird as in unusual in a good way (boost mode and all), not anything bad. I quite like the grip actually. I also have to mention how much I liked how they changed the behavior of shutter speed dials in a patch for X-T1 some time ago so that you can change the shutter speed with the grip in portrait orientation. Shows how much Fuji really cares about their customers, such small details.

 

Taking the diagonal as reference, the Fuji GFX will have a  0.8 crop factor compared to FF. The standard zoom won't be thaaaat wide: 26-51mm f3.2 FF equivalent. The normal prime will be a 50mm f2.2 FF equivalent, and the macro a 96mm f3.2 FF equivalent. 

 

I thought it was something like a 24-50 equivalent. Still, it's wider than 28-85ish zooms most cameras come with. I'd probably be perfectly happy with a good 24-50/2.8 but knowing myself, I'd probably go crying back to my primes three days later.
