I had anticipated this being a fairly easy task, and in a sense it was, but I really struggled with this project. There are a few different sensors and processors, and the cameras can be separated into different generations. My GFX experience is very limited at this point. Different lenses can produce slightly different results depending on the micro-contrast and coatings. So the comparisons I made were never fully , unfortunately. For example, Grain is scaled differently on GFX. There are several insignificant differences that I noticed upon close side-by-side comparisons, but without carefully studying deep crops, the GFX images look pretty identical to the X-Trans V photos.
This is the paradox I discovered: the pictures look so similar when comparing colors, tints, shadows, etc. But what? I asked a few people I know who have a GFX camera, and one suggested color fidelity, that the same exact colors just seem more alive or maybe more lifelike on GFX. This could simply be the depth-of-field or the micro-contrast of the GFX lenses or both. I updated the App yesterday to show those Recipes as compatible with those two cameras.
After that, I thought about the other GFX models. Why should they be left out? That took a few verified and unverified assumptions. Also, I realized an assumption I made several years back was incorrect. The 50mp GFX cameras are a bit of a problem because shadows are rendered slightly lighter, and a.
I made an assumption that those Recipes would also be compatible with the GFX, but I believe that camera has deeper shadow rendering like the other mp cameras, so that assumption was incorrect; however, I left it alone in the App.

The way to look at this, I suppose, is that film grain appears more fine on medium-format film than 35mm. In a recent interview , Theo Georghiades, general manager of Fujifilm Imaging Solutions UK, told Amateur Photographer that there is a possibility of a Fujifilm film camera coming in the future.
