    Fuji Short Telephoto for X-H1

    I first purchased the 56mm, then the 16-55, and later, the 90mm. I use all three on my X-H1. Since the 16-55 arrived, I have not used my 56mm as much. Two reasons, 1) my original thought was to use the 56mm for portraits and for its wonderful bokeh at f1.2. However, the bokeh from the...

    Fuji SSD and Lightroom

    I also second using a SSD for Lightroom. I recently took things a step further, buying a motherboard that has two M.2 SSD slots, as per a recommended PC configuration in PhotographyLife.com. The M.2 SSDs attach directly to the motherboard and look more like thick RAM. The better M.2 SSDs...

    Fuji The great Camera purge at MPB

    An excellent company to purchase gear from or to sell to. Conservative grading, the items that I have purchased have all been better than their listed condition. No hassles, good warranty, free 5-7 day shipping. Prices tend to be better than KEH & BHPhoto. My X-T2, X-Pro1, 10-24, 18-55...

    Fuji A Change in Platforms Maybe

    Tim, If you are going to a D500 for sports photography, perhaps you could borrow an appropriate lens and try it for landscapes. The IQ of the current state-of-the-art crop sensors is amazing. I am also a former D700 owner. Up against a D500 for landscapes...might be in for a real surprise...

    Fuji A Change in Platforms Maybe

    I'm a believer in different kits for different purposes. While I recently sold my X-T2, I owned it concurrently with my D300. Speaking ONLY from my experience, I found the speed and performance of the predictive AF-C of the D300 to be significantly better for tennis/baseball action shots...

    Fuji When to switch on the IOS in the XF18-55

    I agree w/KillRamsey, you did the right thing. As for when I use OIS with my 18-55...I just returned from a month-long RV vacation to British Columbia, the Canadian Rockies, Waterton Lakes NP, and Glacier NP. About 2,000 images, of which two-thirds were shot with the 18-55 (used on both my...

    Fuji Is it me? I'm not in love with my new xt-20

    My $0.02 I had both an OMD EM5 and EM1.mk1 before buying a used XT10 w/16-50. AF-S speed was faster on the OMDs but I was using a fast Panasonic 12-35/2.8 zoom. I bought a 18-55/2-4 OIS and the AF speed was much better, about the same as the EM5. However, the OIS in both Fuji lenses is...

    Fuji X-PRO1 GAS

    Recently received a new-to-me X-Pro1 and love it! I've been cruising the X-forums for some time and am a reasonably experienced Fuji X user. The XP1 was intended as a backup my X-T2. However, I've had so much fun learning and shooting the XP1 that the roles might be reversed! I really like...

    Fuji Thinking about leaving m4/3

    Mesmerized, Absolutely no criticism of your post intended, just posting my own experience as a long-term Olympus MFT owner and as a recent X-T10 owner. To my eyes, the Fuji landscapes are superb with beautiful color and detail (i.e. shot as RAW, PP'd with Iridient X-Transformer & imported...

    Fuji Thinking about leaving m4/3

    I am an OMD-EM1 owner (previously owned an EM5 for several years) and a Nikon FX owner (D810) who has recently purchased a used XT10 with 18-55/2.8-4 OIS. Lightroom is my only PP app. LR has greatly improved its performance with Fuji X-trans RAW files in the most current v6 and CC updates. I...
