Hello everyone and welcome to another
episode of the FujiGuys my name is
Jerry. In today's episode I'm going to
unbox the GFX 50s. The latest mirrorless
medium format camera from FUJIFILM.
So I'm not going to waste any more time i'm
just going to get right at it.
So in the top portion of the box here we
have this lovely inner box and you
can see that that these boxes are white
versus the X-series which is actually
black with the silver lettering. open
Open this up now. In this portion here you're
going to find the warranty information
any kind of cautionary notes that you
should be aware of with your camera and
under this portion you'll actually find
the instruction manual now the
version I got didn't have the manuals
quite ready yet,
in order for me to be able to show them
to you today but essentially it's a nice
booklet that includes all the features
and depending on your market you'll get
the appropriate one for your market.
On this side we have a bunch of these
little adapters and these adapters are
made for the different markets around
the world to charge your battery so
regardless of where you are you have all
of the adapters that you need, even when
you travel. So you've got them all, you pick
the appropriate ones you need. Now I'm
just going to set aside the North
American one there because that's what
I'm going to use to show you how to
connect it. For now I'm just going to
tuck this off to the side and we're
going to get into the accessories
portion of the box. So there we go
so here's the accessory portion so in
the top here we see here this is a
really handy tool this is a cable
management tool for tethering so you can
put your USB cable, HDMI cable, power
cable and any other cables
that you need like your remote trigger
release and things like that.
Below that here we have the battery so
this is the NP-T125 battery. A new battery
for FUJIFILM for the GFX 50s. Beside that
now we have the strap and just going to
open that up
and we're going to pull out the
strap so it's a nice you know padded
strap with the nice embroidered logo on
it. Put that therefore now, and then these are
the eyelets so the way this cameras
design it's not like a typical say DSLR
or one of our mirrorless cameras where
you have to use the little rings around
the eyelets this has a little different
say design to and the ideas that if
you're in a studio and you want to
quickly get in and out of the studio, so
there's the second one there, you want to
get quickly in and out studio and put a
strap on to be able to go shoot on
location you'll be able to do that with
this strap system. Here we have the
battery charger so here's where we're
going to show you how to connect the
little adapter on the back so it's real
simple just to attach it from the top
first and let it snap into place now
it's nice and secure. If you want to
release it just press up on this little
switch and there's the adapter in my
hands. So you can quickly swap them in
and out as you need to in this portion
of the box here we have the electronic
viewfinder and yes it is included ladies
and gentlemen
so here it is here it out of the bag
there's your electronic viewfinder and
there is a little cap that covers the
hot shoe or the hotshoe
connector because this is actually going
to connect to the hotshoe of the camera itself.
show you that in a moment. Put that
aside and does come with a hotshoe
protector on it as well
whoops! Put that box aside, butterfingers!
And there we go and now so this portion
you can see that actually this is a nice
fitted foam really protects the
camera
gives it a nice presentation and so here
is the GFX 50s! So on the top here you
can see we have this plate and this
plate just slides right off. There just
and it has nice logo to cover your hotshoe
and then you just remove the cap to
attach the viewfinder. And you want to
really make sure you get a good push to
make sure it's all the way and nicely
seated. You'll hear the final little
click lock it into place. The eyelets I
was mentioning have a really unique
design to them so the way that they work
is there's a little spring load here, you
can see and when you snap them into
place and they're well secured and hear
that click, now you're ready to go. If I
want to be able to then quickly get out
of the studio I just need to lift this
portion here and slide the strap right
off so that's how that works there now
the battery itself has a little square
dot on it
not unlike our current batteries this
just helps guide you as to which way to
put the battery in there is only one way
that you should put the battery in but
this just helps you
well that you can put the battery in if
you try to put it in the wrong way it
will not secure. So proper way, done,
locked in and that is the GFX50s I hope
