Its a standard normal for medium format film square! No cropping comes into play. (The diagonal of 60x60mm is pretty close to 80mm.) Digital medium formats are a tad smaller than film medium formats cameras so they cost less than a million dollars. And more people buy them. But with this gorgeous to die for GFX100 I am overwhelmed by the idea of shooting with over a hundred megepixies! But maybe I should really be overwhelmed by the fact that it's made with physically way bigger sized medium format sensor? (33 ? 44mm) A combination of both would be the smart opinion. I'd both be right! Costing only $9,999.00 here in New York!
