I follow Fuji GFX news, and you would be surprise that so many people were surprise by the dynamic range of that sensor, and they didn't know the sensor is already that great in Pentax 645Z.
why Ricoh 645Z failed to capture wave like the GFX has everyone excited?
I thought it was the advertisement budget, but no... it's the mirrorless.
There are so many MF glass that can be adapt to the GFX, even some large aperture FF glass. This is the appeal.
PENTAX 645Z next iteration can only compete with GFX if - 1. go mirrorless, or 2. go Full frame 645.
#1 should be the path going forward with WR adapter to use modern 645 lenses.
#2 is just slowing down the dying process (not dying but remain small) and going into a even smaller market segment.
Honestly, I have a plan to buy 645Z "in the future", but now I am looking forward to get GFX instead. As I look forward to use my other MF glass on the body, which is not possible with P645.
