Is this a once in a lifetime trip? Is the 100-400 and X-T2 a combo you would sufficiently use once the trip is done? While I have and love my X-T1, AFC on wildlife, especially birds in flight, is not a strong suit - quite weak in fact. Preliminary reports of the X-T2 AF make it seem as though it...

From memory, I don't think it is as fast, but you do have a great selection of lenses to choose from, something the Sony continues to lack. I do think the new firmware brings the X-T1 very close to the performance of the Sony and Oly E-M1 I've also used recently.

Face and eye tracking need to be off, and it can only be in mechanical shutter. It works pretty well, you just have make sure to set the camera right, so not as seamless as it should be, but a vast improvement.

I anxiously awaited FW 4.0 for my X-T1 and 55-200 to see if it would/could come close to my former Olympus E-M1 and 50-200 SWD lens. Pretty impressed with the results. My standard test subject, my speedy 10-year-old, runs at me full bore down the sidewalk. Did the same test, starting at the...

I've gone both ways. Fuji X-Pro1 to X-T1 to Oly E-M1 to X-T1 ... For me image quality of Fuji trumps useability of Olympus. The E-M1 is a much faster camera to use, once set up it is very user friendly and the AF, especially C-AF, is far superior (I am hoping tonight's Fuji Firmware 4 brings the...

A camera, any camera, will not make you a better photographer. Becoming a better photographer takes an investment in your time. Learning the fundamentals that you can then apply to any camera you pick up. It honestly sounds like the Fuji is way more camera than you require, or need or want, and...

impressively built bags:

Ideally you should handle both cameras before deciding. While similar, there will be differences that may make one better than the other from a handling point of view.

No, unless you don't want to hold camera gear. The new style bag has a zippered pocket in back that holds my iPad 2, but doesn't zip shut. It would fit an iPad mini and zip. The older bag has a different pocket setup. I do, come to think of it, have another Crumpler bag for a laptop, it is...

Film speed, a.k.a. ISO, is the sensitivity of the film, or in this case, sensor, to light. It is one of the basics of exposure, as is shutter speed and aperture. At ISO 200, the sensor needs less exposure to light for a given shutter speed and aperture. for example, a bright area at ISO 200 may...

A few from my limited fall options here in Tucson. X-Pro1 and 23 1.4. The 23 is a brilliant lens.

As has been said, you were using the 23 in your examples the same as the 35 (your examples are lovely, well, in a special way at least) ... Some focal lengths are just right for your style, and others just aren't. I love my 23, but it is a focal length dear to me. Part of me really wants the 35...

I succumbed and a 23 is heading my way. One camera, one lens for now!

While I await my X-Pro 1, I've been looking through the manual, looking on the web and trying to familiarize myself with its controls. One question I don't know if I've really gotten a good answer to (because of the various firmware updates, the camera has evolved a lot) is about the command...

Congrats, I remember when you left micro43 to go Fuji.

To the original poster, you likely won't miss anything about the Canon 5d Classic, while a great camera even still, it has slow AF, drive motor and the high ISO performance lacks compared to the current cameras. I went from a 5d to an OM-D EM5 when it first came out and had all the same...

Very good insight. We get so obsessed with the latest and greatest gear, the fastest and most comprehensive system that we overlook how we use our gear. The X-Pro 1 I have on the way is a big technological step backwards from the Sony A6000, but I want to take a more deliberate approach to my...

I'm new here too, also coming from Sony. Just ordered an X-Pro 1 and sorting out lens choices. Don't have much to add since I don't have any equipment yet, but I have had my share of gear over the years, my favorite being Leica M's and Contax G's. I've been drawn to Fuji X since it was...

Thanks for the welcome Bill! The 56 and 23 are tops of my want list, but I can't quite justify (really, I simply can't afford) them. I'll need to look at the 60. I had the 60 Sigma for the Sony and it is a brilliant little lens and a nice focal length, and was slow to focus (relatively). As of...

Been around cameras and photography for a long time (newspapers for 25 years) and my favorite tools have always been rangefinders - Leica M's, Contax G's - and after lusting for the X-Pro 1 since its introduction, one is finally on its way. Selling off my Sony A6000 kit, which is lovely...

Been toying with mirrorless for years - m43 three times, Nikon V1 and I think the A6000 is going to be the one (until the next ONE comes out) I just sold a D7000 and my Nikon V1 kit to fund an A6000 and the Sigma trio of lenses. I believe the A6000 will offer all the performance and quality (or...

Sadly I just sold mine. Not because it was difficult, and not because I didn't like it (I really did love it). It did, however, make me realize how much I like a small kit and how little I was really shooting with my D7000 kit. After looking at options I decided on a Sony A6000. Similar size...

My own version of a butterfly, then a few from the pool while waiting for the swim meet to start.

Shot a bit more with the V1 tonight under some challenging, and dark, lighting conditions. Quite pleased overall with the results. As a former newspaper photographer, any of these (some shot at 3200) would have held up just fine in newsprint. Would they print 13x19 at home and look pretty, no...

a new to me V1 kit ... Have had m43 and loved it, but it definitely lacks in long lens, fast aperture so I settled on a D7000 kit (2 cameras) with 17-55 and 80-200 AF-S. Big, heavy and bulky. Found a V1 kit with 10-30 and 30-110 and added it to my kit. Fantastic little travel kit. I could see...
