Fuji digital film simulations

I guess you like their big ones... How heavy are they? The weight of the Mamiya put me off that although it does OK on a tripod with a cable release, I just can't seem to hand-hold it. The Perkeo 2 is actually a joy as far as size/weight and I'm happy with the 12" x 12" print that I just got back today. Not sure what 6 x 6 in film would equate to in pixels... Just saw a YouTube about a new 247mp Sony image sensor. That will probably go into the yet-to-be-announced Fuji GFX 250.

not sure how heavy the perkeo ii is.

the gf lenses are heavier than their 35mm counterparts, but the gfx 50r camera isn't heavy. the camera and lenses (mostly zooms) that i have balance nicely in my hand. i have no problem shooting handheld on the 50r with it's lack of ibis.

Apparently 531 grams. Folded, it fits comfortably in my jeans front or rear pocket.

fuji's mf cameras are quite a bit bigger and heavier than that.

But you'd expect that a 6 x 6 film camera would give you reasonably detailed shots. Have you pre-ordered your Fuji with the new Sony sensor? And just how much travelling do you do?
