Are there any good straps I can get for my XT1 that can utilize the circular camera lugs?

I mean, without having to attach the additional triangular parts..
>>
>>2849124
Art and artisan have some that will do the job but they are expensive and arent overly long.
>>
>>2849132
And they take quite a while to wear in.
If you get one of recommend wearing it round your neck all the time until the leather loosens up around the lugs

What are the BEST Fuji prime lenses?

I have heard good things about the 16mm, 35mm f/2, 56mm and 90mm prime lenses.. I know pretty much ALL the Fuji lenses are fantastic but I want to pick the best ones of the bunch.

It will be for travel and general photography so a range is good.
>>
>>2849207
It's pretty dependent on what you want it for, and what you're willing to spend. Either of the 35mm lenses are very sharp, render beautifully, and are in a popular focal length.

The 23mm is hard to go past for an all-round travel lens - I've shot 90%+ of photos on month long trips overseas with an X100S or T when I've had a XT-1 or X Pro 1 in a bag with me, so the focal length is definitely very usable and the 23mm is lovely and sharp, lovely and colourful.

The 14mm is relatively inexpensive and makes a great landscape lens, as long as you don't mind f/2.8.

The 90mm is the current darling of the review crowd in terms of Fuji IQ, but the 135ish mm focal length is fairly niche for travel.

The 16mm is ironically one I haven't sampled yet - I say that because pre-Fuji the overwhelming majority of my shots were shot at 24mm on FF - 24mm TSE, 24-105 and 24-70 both used at the wide end, but I haven't got around to trying the 16mm yet.

The two 56mm lenses are very well regarded; I can't speak for the APD version but the standard one is entirely usable at f/1.2, and very sharp from f/1.8 or so upwards.

What focal length do you like to shoot at, or are you most comfortable with?
>>
>>2849220
Note about the 56mm (and APD) the image quality is great all around, but the autofocus leaves a lot to be desired.

>>2849207
If what you want is a range, and flexibility, there's no reason not to consider the zooms, as well. A 16-50 is light, cheap, and excellent. The 18-55 is better built and a little faster (plenty fast, considering the sensor's great high ISO)
>>
>>2849229
>Note about the 56mm (and APD) the image quality is great all around, but the autofocus leaves a lot to be desired.

Fair comment. It's not the swiftest
>>
>>2849239
>It's not the swiftest
True, but for portraits and stuff, speed isn't that important. What bothered me is that in anything but blinding light, there's hunting, and in middling to low light, a lot of the time, it'll just hunt around for like four seconds and then guess.

Most super fast 85mm equivalents have AF issues (Looking at you specifically 85mm f/1.2 L)
>>
>>2849242
Wasn't much better in the II version either lol

So tell me, whats the /p/ approved cleaning solutions?
>>
>>2849207

The 27mm f/2.8 is a great and very underrated lens. It's the only pancake and for some reason overlooked.
>>
>>2849245
I don't think I've ever seen /p/ suggest anything other than "google it fag". Personally, I'd just get a clean microfiber cloth and wipe it off gently with my finger. There's glass filters on top of all of the delicate stuff on the sensor, so as long as you aren't wailing on it, you won't be damaging anything.

If that's too harrowing, I'm sure there are well reviewed sensor cleaning kits out there, or take it to a local shop for cleaning (but that's usually not cheap, unfortunately)
>>
>>2849257
I think it's a bargain for $200, which you can pick it up for during rebates. For the shelf price I think there's better value in the range.
>>
>>2849261
I concur. However, my reply was towards travel photography in general. I suppose other primes are more portable but you can't beat the 40mm focal length. Not too narrow, not too wide.

anyone used these before? wonder how they work with fuji protetive glass. on amazon reviews say they might rip off the AA coating off the glass, but since Fuji doesnt have one it should be alright, no?

It's honestly not that slow compared to the other 85mm (135) lenses. Compared to the Canon 85mm 1.2 (II) and 1.8 it's fast.
>>
>>2849274
I got some dust on my sensor recently and bought this and a kit of other sticks since I shoot at F8 a lot.
The gel stick was awful despite what people said about it and left residue on the sensor. A couple days later my other kit arrived and worked flawlessly. No damage to the sensor at all.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00TF9AMPA/
I used these style of cleaning swabs. If it's dirty, you may want to do a wet wash and a dry wash. Put a couple drops of water on one and make a couple of passes over your sensor and use a 2nd swab to dry. Pop them back in the pack and use them again later.
>>
>>2849274
I think the gel sticks are for getting off loose stuff like dust or sand or dirt. If you have dried spit on the glass, I don't know that a sticky thing will get it off, you may need cleaning solution and a wipe.

The 16-50 is arguably one of the best cheap kit zooms I've laid hands on, currently shoot everything on the 23/1.4 and I can recommend that to anyone regardless of their style.

>>2849257
Agreed, the amount of times I've came close to buying one is insane, ended up picking up an industar-69 (old russian M39 pancake, 28/2.8) and I absolutely love the feel and focal length of the lens, weighs nothing on cam aswell so great for street shooting and travelling.

>>2849332
It shortens the flange distance a bit, reduces your crop factor quite a bit, and gives you back your narrow depth of field, which are all pluses for most people. "Worth" is only up to you, but the affects are very real, and invaluable to some.

The zhongyi speedboosters £90 ($110?) for overall aesthetic purposes it's fantastic, sharpness is just barely above acceptable wide open, corner sharpness suffers all across the board regardless of aperture but for portrature it suits me perfectly. feels like I'm shooting my film camera just on digital.

Really? REALLY?

So...

I have a buying question... I will have a bit of cash after I sell some music equipment, should I go for the Xpro-2 with a 23mm f2, or should I just go for a x100t?

I am in love with the x100t as I've done a ton of research into it, but I am attracted to the xpro-2 as well...

Well thanks to the kick-ass sale going on right now, I just added the 16mm to my kit.

It's a big fat pig, which I wasn't expecting. Bigger than the 23mm. Feels a LITTLE fat on the XPro2, but sits really nicely on the X-T1 with the grip.

AF is really nice and snappy, probably one of the best I own. Better than the 35 f/2 even, though being a wide-angle helps.

No results worth sharing yet, but I wanted to post a family portrait (Super gearfag mode for 5 minutes or so)

Will you want other lenses? If not, then how important are the "pro" features of the XPro2 to you?

Personally, if it were me, and I was only ever going to use the 35mm focal length, and didn't want the 23mm f/1.4, I'd ge the X100t
>>
>>2849540
Damn right... I want a good travel camera and not care too much about lenses which might trigger some gear faggotry in me. OK! x100t it is.

I'm very very fortunate to be able to afford the kit that I have. I worked hard for it, and sold of a very comprehensive Canon kit, and a very comprehensive Bronica kit to be able to get a lot of it.

I've honestly never been more content with a kit than I am now though. With my Canon stuff, I was always worried about my highlights, and about focus. I couldn't really afford any of their best lenses, either, which left me with less comprehensive stuff, like a 50mm f/1.4 that kept burning out.

I'm still holding out for a couple of firmware tweaks here and there, but overall, it just gets out of my way and lets me worry about the photos I'm taking, which is what I want from my tools.

Yeah, I actually really like tree photos.

So, who else is using DR400??

I tested it out and it really does capture quite a bit more detail, especially in the highlights.. But Even though I like the results I still prefer shooting at base ISO..

Finally got the FlashQ trigger system.
It's fucking amazing for my Fuji gear, It looks so much nicer than the pocket wizards I use on my 5Diii. I can shoot at 4000th with the X100s and 200th on the XT1.

I highly recommend Fuji bros

There are still some drawbacks, but they're more "trade-offs" now than drawbacks.
The image quality is absolutely in line with DSLRs. Build quality is also there, if you get the right models. You'll still be giving up battery life and low light autofocus performance, though that's creeping up quickly as well.

Really it depends on your needs.
>>
>>2849836
I use 400% DR for raw shooting. It isn't just a processing thing, it adjusts the shooting parameters and the the way the light is handled.

>>2849879
ACROS is super processing heavy. It isn't just a tone curve with some grain on top, it reads the scene and applies selective adjustments to different areas where needed. It raises contrast in highlight areas and applies less noticeable grain. It lowers contrast in shadow areas and applies more grain. Basically, luminosity masking adjustments on the fly. The older bodies that don't have the newest processor can't handle the load.

>>2849886
There have been leaked photos that show the new grip having the AF nipple on it, which suggests a new model. Rumors also suggest it will be the same battery though.

It's a metal camera, so regular wear (and some carefully applied sandpaper) will show you the base metal through the paint.

She bought it used and beat up, and then did some "distressing" or whatever people are calling it these days. If you like that, you should have seen her ridiculous X-E1 she used to have. She literally wore off all of the paint on the top, but it wasn't silver underneath, as it's a magnesium plate, so it was like a weird dirty looking gray-blue. She was very proud.

I'd love to have such offers in my country. I'm after that lens for the portability factor on my X-A2 and the cheapest I can find is 240€ on eBay, and that's if I limit the search to Europe to avoid customs asking a 20% ransom off the retail price if they catch it. Local Amazon is around 370€ and retail stores are asking north of 450€ for it which is a fucking rip-off.

I bought a little 35mm 1.7 lens from China, Kaxinda, natively in X mount.
The aperture ring is smooth and unclicked, but this is definitely not a cctv lens. This is a very capable little lens. Little bit prone to flare.

From the size and specs of it, its possible its a modified voigtlander copy, but I'm not sure yet. It's very well constructed, too.
Sample snapshits wide open to follow.

I'm looking to upgrade from an x20. When it came out, I sold all my film gear and went to it because I wanted to stop carrying a bunch of stuff around. Years later I find myself missing actual manual focus and a more regular camera. I want to upgrade to the better X system but I'm shot on cash. I want to work on building up a kit, I was thinking of getting a used X-E1 or X-Pro1 and a 35mm f/2 WR to start. I'll eventually build up to a better body, but for now and from what I've seen, those two bodies take great stills which is all I need. I don't need any fancy continuous AF, or anything like that, just functioning AF and good manual focus.

Should I go X-E1 or X-Pro1? Is the viewfinder lag really that bad in both of the EVF's? Should I possibly try for an X-E2 with that small 27mm lens? The 18-55 is tempting too but I rally want this to stay small. I know theres a size difference between the Xpro1 and X-E1.
>>
Does anyone think sigma or tamron will ever make lenses for X mount?
>>
>>2850894
Maybe.
Frankly they have their worked ahead of them X-mount is very on point right now.
>>
>>2850854
XE2 or XPRO1.
I would go with the XPRO1 personally.
Get the 18/27/35 depending on your shooting style.

I just got the XPRO1 WITH THE 35WR and it focuses faster than my X100S and I never had a problem with the x100s.
>>
>>2850854
The EVF Lag isn't bad in good light, but in low light, it's definitely something you notice. If money is REALLY tight, you'll be okay, but the first thing you're going to want to get in a new body will be that viewfinder. If you can swing an X-E2, I would do it, for sure. And the 27mm lens is great, so you don't need to feel like you're giving up image quality or anything.

Generally, I tell people lenses before bodies, but the Gen-1 Fuji bodies were really quirky and a lot of people were turned off by them. The quirks were so bad that people still use them as a way to dismiss the whole system.

The X-E2 recently got a huge update that essentially gives it the capabilities of the X-T1, AF and feature wise, so it's a big step up.

But again, if you can't, don't sweat it too hard, just plan on accepting some annoyance.
>>
>>2850894
Sigma mentioned it in passing, and made it clear that they were not at all interested right now. Tamron is probably right there as well. The potential customer base is just so much smaller, and the pricing and quality on Fuji lenses is pretty tight, there's not much room for them to get their foot in the door.
>>
>>2850952
This is what I figured. I'd liek to go play with this stuff at B&H but who knows what the firmware on a used Xpro1 is going to be, or X-E2 for that matter. I guess they'll probably have an X-E2 that's new at the little fuji booth but who knows what firmware it is. Maybe I'll hang on a bit and see if I can snag a deal on an X-E2.

Whats the difference between it and the S version? I can't see anything major.
>>
>>2851021
There isn't anything major. Pretty much everyone says just get an X-E2 and do the firmware upgrade.

Because the sensor infrastructure allows you to exposure differently than a non-isoless one. A photo shot at iso 800 on a Fuji is indistinguishable from one shot at 200 and bumped to 800 in post. The benefit is that it allows you to get a jpeg without blown highlight immediately.

If you don't understand it, it's not your job to. You'll get it by experience if you ever handle the cameras and files.

Pic related is iso 800, DR 400% jpeg

And this is iso 200. It has less DR as a jpeg with the same settings.
800 without 400% dr would have less than this, not more.

It's a practical benefit when the image quality is already good enough.

I just got one but only a day or two ago, I am still working my way around it and customizing the settings to my liking.

I did do a test and saw that DR400 did hold quite a bit more detail in the highlights, does this mean if I purposely shot at ISO 800 and DR400 and shot a set of bracketed images I would get a lot more information out of the RAW files (than if I were to do the same bracketed shot at ISO 200)?

Thanks for the reply.
>>
>>2851122
Potentially depending on the scene itself.
More importantly, with a Fuji it's actually pretty rare to need to bracket too much in the first place. Unless you're going for seperate foreground and background exposures, the raw files generally have enough latitude under 3200 iso (on older cameras, higher on xpro2) to go wherever they need to.

Don't be afraid to go very far on the sliders with a Fuji. They don't degrade nearly as fast as some files, unless oversharpened.

Here's an example of what I mean by "the raw files generally have enough latitude [...] to go wherever they need to"

This is from one exposure, iso 2000. The foreground is probably around iso 8000 or so in post. In the original file for this, the road isn't even visible, its just black.

This is with an X-E1, one of the early Fujis. The capabilities are even greater now.

I'm looking to upgrade from my X-E1 (mainly because of irritatingly slow write speeds).
Is €450 a good price for a second hand X-T1, or would it be wise to wait for prices to drop when the X-T2 comes out in a few months?
>>
>>2851130
I had this argument a while back where a mate said to wait until a newer model comes out (especially if it's around the corner), as you'll get the longest length of support plus the latest firmware.

Is that new ISO dial as annoying as most reviewers say it is?

Depends on how you shoot.
For me, no harm. I like it.

>>2851138
I never really leave auto ISO, so hardly ever touch it. When I do, it's a little sluggish, but otherwise it works well. It being upside-down isn't an issue for me. Even if I used it all the time, it would never be as annoying as some of the haters make it out to be. It's like anything else with Fuji, once you learn it, it's easy and quick.

Looking at these fuji photos really has me interested. Getting a bonus check in June about $900 should I buy the xpro1 or a x-e2?

I've compared the two on the fujifilm website and it seems the x-e2 is a better camera but when i view the photos on flickr for each camera the xpro1 looks better.

There's not really enough x-e2s photos to compare that camera just yet. Image quality wise.

Will be shooting mostly trains in a rail yard or going about 35 mph between 2 rail yards.

Like the smaller rangefinder type body.
>>
>>2851295
XE-2, definitely.
>>
>>2851295
Do you need interchangeable lenses? Because I would suggest an x100t or x100s.
>>
>>2851155
That's what I thought. That's why I hate reviewers these days. Too stuck in one line of thinking and too busy comparing this camera to that camera rather than approaching this new, completely different camera with an open mind.
>>
>>2851316

if i wanted a fixed lens camera i'd probably get a ricoh gr ii instead. i want to be able to swap lenses.
>>
>>2851295
Get the cheaper of the two. The biggest limiting factor for any camera is the person holding it.

Was reading Fuji's page on their M-mount adapter

>The bright frame, shown in the Optical Viewfinder mode, changes according to the defined focal length for easy shooting

>** The frame may not be displayed for lenses of particular focal lengths.

I'm guessing bright frame means frame lines? Do you guys know if there's a list of supported focal lengths for the frame lines in OVF mode?
>>
Guys can you post the comparison of LR / PN which was posted couple threads ago?
>>
>>2851349
If the lens is too wide you aren't going to have enough viewfinder space, if it's too long the frame lines are going to be tiny. If you use your lens on a Leica and it has the frame lines for it then it will be fine.
>>
>>2851352
I'm guessing it converts the focal length you input to aps-c field of view? So 40mm lens attached will show 60mm lines? They're certainly not on a Leica!
>>
>>2851358
Obviously it shows the APS-C equivalent.
>>
>>2851200
I'm this guy >>2851130 and I love my X-E1, except for the write speeds.
If you want to use manual lenses with the focus magnification aid, look for a newer camera like the X-E2. The X-E1 won't go into magnified view while writing to the card, which can take a while even with a fast card. If you only use Fuji's excellent autofocus lenses, you'll be fine (though it's still not a fast camera).
Some people like the jpegs from the X-E1 a lot more than those of its successors. There's a notable difference in the film simulations.

I saw this plane cropdusting while on my way up to NorCal for a convention, and it happened to be right near an offramp so I pulled off and snapped some photos.

I'm actually really impressed, especially by this cheesy little 50-230. AF tracked much better than I expected it to.

Absolutely.

Mainly because you can no longer set it by software, even if you wanted to.

I have no issue with it as I generally use auto ISO and make use of the three auto ISO profiles to choose my max and min for each situation.
I have a cap of 800 on my first profile, I use this for portraits
A cap of 3200 for general colour shooting on the 2nd
And a cap of 12800 and minimum shutter speed of 1/500 on my third which I use for black and white street shooting

Hey guys, I'm wanting to buy a compact camera for travel. I already own a Canon 6D with a bunch of lenses but I'm sick of toting around such a heavy camera whilst travelling. I'm thinking about either the X100s or t, or the new X70. What do you guys think??

Notice the word before it.
When other primes for the system are f/1.4 and f/1.2, f/2 is relatively slow. Also, the x70 is f/2.8. Was more a comment about the focal length though.
>>
>>2852330
The X70 is probably a bit improved over all, but I own an X100S and its one of the worst cameras I've ever used.

Stay away. All those stellar reviews are cognitive dissonance because the reviewer just spent $1000 on a camera which can produce good files but it is clunky as fuck to use and simply does not provide a good shooting experience .

Sounds like you bought the camera without knowing what it was. What issues do you have? I loved mine, and my only issue was not knowing how to use the AF system and blaming the camera for missing focus when I was actually fucking it up.

I bought the camera knowing what it was, it's just bad at what it is.

If by "what it is" you mean a slow as fuck, clunky machine that can crank out good files of perfectly still objects in optimal light then you're right, maybe I did misunderstand this camera.

But in general this is a camera described as being "photography first" which handles great. I found the exact opposite. It feels like modern tech crammed into a user experience/handling reminiscent of a mid range compact from 2005.

The AF ranges from slow to unusable, in low light it essentially doesn't work (better get used to that oh so mushy MF by wire), and TTL is just awful.

For what this camera is good at, there are probably better choices. For what it should have been great at, street, candids at parties, events, travel, it's just bad.

If it hadn't been focus by wire and had included a distance scale on the lens, maybe the shitty AF would be bearable, but I'm describing a completely different camera.

Other than the autofocus (which really isn't bad at all, and certainly isn't worse than any of the other fuji line, most people do just fine with) what about it is slow as fuck or clunky?

Get an LX100. You lose a stop or so of high ISO and a few MP for faster/better AF and that sweet 24mm f/1.7.

It's the ultimate travel compact.

>>2852452
The entire focusing system, from AF to MF by wire, dominates the entire user experience of this camera and is perfectly described by the words slow and clunky.

So as originally stated, you didn't understand what camera you were buying, and never learned to use the AF correctly. Everything else about the camera is excellent.

>It's just bad at what it is
What it is is a travel and street camera. Street is generally done at wide apertures during the day with slow moving subjects like people, and travel subjects don't generally prove too stressful for an AF system either. All other operations of the camera are tactile, instant, simple, and intuitive.

As stated, TTL is also very bad.

>What it is is a travel and street camera.

If by travel you mean taking photos of still buildings maybe, but this is a terrible street camera. And street shooting being wide open? What? Most people shoot around 5.6-11 if the light will allow it. Street photography is anything but "slow".

This camera is garbage for street because of the focusing. If you want to zone focus, which I am fine with, give it mechanical focus with a distance scale on the lens. If you want mf by wire, it needs better AF or at least better mf by wire implementation.

What we get is a focusing system which is awful for all but the most basic, predictable situations in street photography.
>>
>>2852467
I have an X100s and an X-T1, and the focus feels about the same to me on them, pre X-T1 firmware 4.0. I never really have issues, and use mine for street all the time.

Got my X100 back from the second round of service today, after having dropped it in the floor and thus killing it.

The first time they changed the main circuit board, cost me around $100. Cheap as hell I'd say.

But alas, when I received it, the ON/OFF switch didn't work right. The camera was always on, the switch doing nothing. So I sent it back again.

Got it today, another change of the main circuit board, the whole lens assembly and the top plate. Cost? 0. Got my viewfinder cleaned as well, frikkin awesome.

And this on a camera that has long passed its warranty date.

I missed it, best camera I have ever had.

>>
>>2852455
I actually didn't find it that bad on my original X100 with the newest firmware. It definitely wasn't DSLR tier, but it was about as good as any compact I'd used. That said, I wasn't generally shooting demanding subjects with it.

The thing that really annoyed me about the X100 was how slow everything else was. It took forever to review a shot after taking it, for example, and navigating through menus etc was pretty glacial.

The X-Pro2 I have now is pretty damn good, though. I had my first real event last weekend, and in a few days of serious shooting I only ran into focus issues a couple of times, when shooting dark faces in front of a bright high contrast background, and a quick refocus generally fixed it. Otherwise, it was as fast as my D610 was with comparable fast primes, and more accurate. (I did one shoot alongside a friend who was using a 5DIII with similar primes, and his miss rate was much higher than mine.)

You can though.

The ISO/SS dial is bad. It removed features available on previous cameras to appeal to nostalgiafags. ISO/SS dials have NEVER been good.

What's your feedback on that Chinese lens ?
>>
>>2851138
>>2852771
I hate to agree, but yeah, the ISO dial bugs me. It's pretty awkward to use. I shoot with the camera in auto when in daylight and without flash, but when I need to go over ISO 800 or have a consistent ISO for flash work, it's pretty damn fiddly. With flash is particularly annoying because it's harder to adjust with a speedlight in the hotshoe, too.

I find that it's much easier to forget that there are actual markings and just turn it while looking at the LCD/VF ISO display, by the way.
>>

Nice projection m8

Fuji MF is janky as hell btw
>>
>>2852791
It's pretty nice actually. Very sharp wide open with alight hallation, like a vintage glow. Bokeh is slightly swirly and very smooth.

It reminds me a lot of the rendering of a voigt nokton and has a similar optical arrangement which makes me think that might be it's design ancestor
>>

What about an RX100 III or IV? They're much smaller and only have a slightly slower lens and smaller sensor.

Why does everyone say you have to "learn how to use the auto focusing system" on the X100 series of cameras whenever it's someone's biggest complaint?

I've tried an X100T and didn't really have any issues with it, but can anyone go over this for me? What's the deal?
>>
>>2853336
Many people are coming off a DSLR, where the actual focus sensor is larger than the point that is used to represent it on the focusing screen. Also, on a DSLR, the focus sensor is generally a small line, or two lines crossing over ("Cross type sensor") which means you need contrast that is lined up with that line in order for the focus point to work. on-sensor autofocus works differently. If you're used to the DSLR type, you've gotten habits and technique, even subconsciously, that optimizes your focus for that type of sensor. However, when you move to mirrorless, were you lay your focus point, and the type of contrast it works well with is slightly different.

On a DSLR, you might put your focus point right along the edge of an object, so that the sensor can read the hard edge, and grab focus on it. With a mirrorless system, doing that sort of focusing will lead to your camera focusing on the background as often as your subject, making you think the focus system is shit. IN stead, you point the spot on the center of the subject, maybe.

It really depends on the scene, but personally starting out, I found that my technique with the X100s landed my focus on the background about 20% of the time, and I was really pissed off. But over time, I adjusted my technique and where I placed the focus points, and came to naturally account for the parallax difference, and now I only get a background focus when there is really complex bright back-lighting, or my subject is really smooth and lacks contrast, while also being really small or something.

Push your budget for an XE-2, with the latest firmware (4.0) it's basically an XT-1 without weather sealing, I was originally pushing my way up through the canon system and honestly I cannot fault the XE-2 I was just about to drop £2,000 on a Canon 5D mkii and some cheap shitty lenses (because it's all I could afford lol) but instead took the leap and got the XE-2 a year ago, it has done everything I've needed to and as I'm getting better the camera is letting me push myself further and further, it doesn't get in the way when you're shooting and just let's you shoot seamlessly, I've had more fun with this cam shooting with a cheap Industar 69 than I have ever had shooting anything else digital, and with the size I don't even have to think "oh this might be too heavy to carry with all of my x stuff"

It fits in my coat pocket for fucks sake, some of my best pictures were taken on a spur of the moment shoots and I'm glad I had this and nothing else.

I've had the 16-50, 18mm f2, 35mm 1.4, 35mm f2 wr and now own the 23mm 1.4

They're all fantastic lenses and coming down to how you shoot you'll love all of them.

If you go for the XE2 and can't afford lenses in the meantime just get something cheap to adapt until you can, it's so much more worth it and you will feel like you're back on film shooting this camera.
>>
>>2850854
The X-E2s comes with the 18-55mm which is a $700 lens on its own.

It's such a good lens that it's unfair to call it a kit lens.

Go with the E2s.

Going to LA to pick up a XT1 off craigslist, finally joining the master race.

What should I look for on the camera? Its just a body. Its not an old gen w/ the mushy buttons and shit.
>>
>>2853671
Really, you should be all set. Not much to take note of. Be sure the sensor is clean I guess?
>>
>>2853336
Because they likely switched from a camera with functioning autofocus.

After months of buyers remorse and cognitive dissonance since "it must be as good as those reviews say it is" they invent bandaid techniques to shoehorn the AF into marginal functionality, and thus they have "learned" how the x100/s/t works: you attempt to use it as little as possible and try not to take any challenging shots.
>>
>>2853692
Bitter, much?

I used the X100T after using my D7100 and had no problems using an X100T.

Don't bother with him. He's obsessed, has no idea what he's doing, has totally unreal expectations, and no interest at all in a discussion. It's a vendetta with him. Just let him be, and prove him wrong by posting great photos taken with the camera.

I can't compare the lx100, but the sony takes some getting used to.

I'm not going to bitch about the clusterfuck menus as that's been done by everyone else ever, but you can get used to it (why you'd want to put the effort though for a snapshitter travel cam is another question).

Slow to turn on, cumbersome to work unless you set it to full auto and snapshit away. It is tiny though; like a swiss army knife of compacts. Has everything, may not be the specialist tool for every job has a part for, but it'll do if you can't bring along the whole toolbox.

Over the Fuji:
EVF (have never used it, even on sunny days where it might actually be useful to be squinting into a little square of light). For a compact travel cam don't really see the point when it's so uncomfy.

Does have a built-in ND filter, compared to the fuj so that's nice for sunny vacation spots.

Video is able to be stabilized unlike the x70; a def plus unless you never take vids. The sony's also have a popup flash that can be tilted for bounce flash. More useful for indoorsy nighttime situ where you'd likely be using a flash on vacation. I think the lx100 has a flash attachment - another thing to worry about losing, like the x70 lens cap.

QC isn't stellar, and it feels more fragile than the fuji desu, but fuji does have simplicity of operation, and will produce better quality pictures due to sensor size and processor, at the expense of versatility (video etc.). If you're already used to fuji's set up, having a mini fuji with the same feel is no small advantage (sony operation like pulling teeth if you want to gleen the most out of the little cam).

I would also look at the canon g7x/g7xii.
Cheaper than sony, feels way better put together (much more solid - better qc). Has its drawbacks you can research yourself. Likely has the same sensor as the sony anyway so besides the canon jpeg's looking nicer IQ is gonna be mostly the same + has greater zoom lenght.

Have a fiddle, cam in hand.

The LX series is just great. They're photographers cameras.

Spec by spec it's a wash with the RX but when you use it it's really nice. All of the manual controls you'd like, in a package which feels like a very complete product and doesn't have the quirks of the x100 series.
>>
hows the 35mm f2 on the x-pro1? Autofocus any better than the usual on that slow ass camera? I love my xpro but i use only manual lenses cos the autofocus is shit. if the 35/2 is decently fast id buy one
>>
>>2854998
It's about the same as the others. The limitation isn't the lenses, it's the body. The focus system is slow, the sensor read is slow, the processor is slow, so the the overall experience is slow.

I have $400 and am looking for a fuji camera to use with my vintage lenses.

Can somebody give me a low down on x-m1 vs x-e1 vs x-e2 vs x-t1 vs x-t10 vs x-pro1?

Im willing to save up and buy one later if it's worth it. There are just too many choices that are seemingly very similar.

Are you planning on shooting raw (or raw+jpg)? If so, definitely get one of the newer ones. Especially for manual lenses I presume you'll want to use focusing aids like focus magnification. For some reason those don't work while the camera is writing to the card, and the first gen (E1, Pro1) cameras have terrible, terrible write speed (even with fast cards). Also the EVFs are a bit laggy in low light. In general they're a lot slower in operation.
If you can don't mind them being somewhat slow, they're still perfectly fine cameras though.

Has anyone here converted from nikon to fuji? I like the aesthetics of the XT1/10 and the ability to change settings through physical dials instead of menus/multiple buttons, but I'm not sure if the technical disadvantages have any consequences for a professional photographer.

Also, is the XT-1 worth the extra $280 over the XT-10?

It depends on the profession, and what you'll actually be coming from/moving to, obviously. Which technical disadvantages have you worried, specifically?

For most people, the only real differences between the X-T1 and the X-T10 are the size, and the smaller viewfinder. The rest of it is pretty niche. (though still real)

>>2855426
It depends. I use both an X-T1 and an XPro2, and for me, the differences that matter are the form factor, and the ACROS film simulation. The AF is a little better but only a little, and only on a couple of lenses (the newest bunch). The overall operation speed of the camera is a bit better, but if you don't need that in your shooting, then it's a waste of money. For my personal shooting style and subjects, I would be fine with an X-T1 only, but that may not apply to you.

Black or silver X-E2?
>>
>>2856079

silver obv
>>
>>2855414
so long as you don't get your camera wet, which even if you do, I'm not sure 'weather resistant' means all that much, then the only real differences are the iso dial, the size, and the viewfinder size. Smaller size seems like a positive, and, speaking as an X-t1 owner, the iso dial isn't that good. When I change iso, I often also change shooting mode by mistake. It's hard with western hands to change the two independently. So I'd just look at the two viewfinders. I've often thought that I would have been happier with the x-t10.

hi guys help!

I have an X-T10 and a 23mm f/1.4 that I want to use on AF-S with AF+MF, but I've discovered a bug! See pic related. If only Fuji lenses didn't have hard stops. :(

Ideally I would like a focus mode that works like AF-S, but you can override when things go wonky (like in the dark). How can this be achieved?

Thanks.

Yeah it's one of those lenses with character, for sure- and one that makes me want to pick it up and shoot. The only thing I dislike about it is that like the 50-140 it's easy to be tempted to shoot wide open the whole time, which while it's sharp enough, is often not the best idea.

Just got myself a black XE2, a great upgrade from an x20. What's the deal with leather cases for the body? I liked having one on the x20, I'm not particularly fond of the fuji brand ones color. Is there anything else? It doesn't need to be real leather, I'm not looking for a fashion accessory, just a leather half case for the body only.

Thanks for the comments. I went in and had a closer look at them yesterday and there doesn't seem to be a great deal of difference between them on a tech level. 16mp is enough for A3 prints if I really need them (I'll keep my 24mp dslr for more serious work), and the weather-resistence doesn't even seem to be a massive feature if its only resistent not proof. The dials feel like they'll take some time getting familiar, since I'm used to changing everything short of WB via buttons and a single dial.

I'll probably hold out until September when the XT-2 is hopefully announced so that it drops the price a bit.

People have asserted that 16mp without an AA filter resolves nearly as much detail as a 24mp sensor with the filter. I've personally found that with good technique and starting with Photo Ninja, the level of detail is surprising.

anyone have any input on lens adapters to use my zuiko from my olympus om-2n on my shiny new fuji xt-10? Looks like there's a Fotodiox on amazon for about $40.
>>
>>2856868

Metabones are the best bang for buck in terms of quality for price, you don't need a smart adapter so it should only run you about $100. Of course you can find cheaper alternatives like Fotodiox that will do the job the construction quality is lower though and locking mechanisms are not great.

On the extreme end novoflex are the best quality (only a bit better than Metabones in terms of construction) but are several hundred dollars and IMO are not worth it over the Metabones options.

If you want it to last get the Metabones.

Why are Fuji threads so much better than all the other threads on /p/?
>>
>>2856880

>>
>>2849257
I have that lens. It;s got great image quality but it has a slow autofocus motor in my opinion. The time to autofocus in sealed room with one 60w bulb is ~0.5 seconds. In sunlight it's mostly instant but sometimes has the same 0.5 delay.
Ironically the camera focuses FASTER when it isn't in performance mode which is fucking weird.
The motor is also strangely loud compared to the other lenses, kinda defeats the purpose of the the eshutter. It's loud for room level noise, outside you obviously wouldn't hear it.

Other than that it's not bad, here is a sample from my xt10
>>
>>2856115
I have x-t10 and 27mm and that doesn't happen. The focus dial on the 27mm is digital so it just keeps spinning, there's no hard stop.
Try the usual stuff. Reset camera, upgrade firmware for camera and lens. Contact Fuji if nothing else works.

Ok,

Now I'm an owner of a Fujifilm X10

should I shoot raw or just stay with fine .jpgs?

I'm really confused about it
>>
>>2857629
Raw if you want to process yourself, jpeg if you don't, same as anything else.
>>
>>2857215
Just me, but I'd get rid of the second poll on the bottom right.
>>
>>2857630

is it worth to process a X10 image with film simulation?
>>
another doubt,

so, I took one of my Nikon's SD card to use in my x10, after I took a photo, the camera just froze. what could be?
>>
>>2857634
Sure? Why not?

>>2857654
Did you format the card first?
>>
>>2857655

Ok, I'll shoot raw

I did, I put another card (4GB) in it and them the camera is ok again.
>>
>>2857655
now my SD 32 ultra doesn't work in either cameras....

I'm ashamed of my stupidity
>>
Quick question, not sure if Fuji specific but I use an XT1..

Can I rename my SD cards in my computer or will it fuck the card up when shooting?

I use a Mac, my SD cards are currently named Untitled, I would like to change the name from Untitled to something else, 1. would it cause problems when the card is in the camera? And/Or, would the camera change the card name back to Untitled when I format the card in the camera?

Thanks
