The Old Man with his "Horsey"

You and me both!!! It is agonizing for me too! [emoji6]

Thank you for sharing this shoot with us! I really enjoyed seeing the images and I really like the look and the storyboarding. I did not get a chance to look at the print book yet, but am very interested in doing so; I have been trying to find a good way to represent a storyline, or even just a...

I am so happy to find this thread! I have been so caught up lately in trying to make sure that I have the right APS-C kit that I had forgotten how much I absolutely love shooting my X20! Even more so, I think I just might pull out the old Sony DSC-W290 which has given me some of my absolute...

Well, so much for that idea...

If I remember correctly this lens was made by a few different manufacturers and had a couple of different variants over its lifespan and I have heard that there can be sizeable difference in IQ based on where the lens was manufactured. There is a website that outlines the differences between...

Well, surprisingly, my Zeiss 16-70mm came in today! I wasn't able to pick it up until late so not mush use yet aside from shots of my grouchy old cat. She wasn't happy about it, but she made a good enough model for low light, ISO 1600 shots. So far, I am very excited about it! I am hoping that...

Thanks Ray! Learning about the combination of exaggerated or inflated ISO numbers as well as noise at higher ISO levels, which is at least on par with the competition, really help to make me feel less emboldened to make a change from Sony over to Fuji. During the last couple of days I have...

Thank you all for your input and help!!! I think that I have decided to stick with my a6000 and wait a bit longer for the Zeiss 16-70 to come in. I will probably sell off the A-Mount lenses that I can, or already have replaced. I will keep my LA-E2 for future capability as well as my Sony...

Zx7dave thanks! I had been hearing that there was less noise at higher ISO, but had no experience to compare. The sensor in the a6000 does seem to produce manageable noise. The sensor and usability really are the most important (not counting lenses here) tools to make sure that I take pictures...

Thank you for all of this input Ray! If nothing else, you have made me realize that Fuji may not be this absolute perfect, "Holy Grail" of systems for me. The fact that Fuji has it's own issues that may, in the most general terms, be similar to what I experienced with my NEX 6 helps me realize...

Pniev, that is the reason why I reached out on this forum instead of to TalkeMount or on FujiXspot; I knew I would get really good, unbiased input because I was not reaching out on a specific system forum! This has been such great advice from everyone and is exactly what I need! My AD does...

Nic, I really hadn't thought of the option to pic up a second-hand X-E1 (or even and X-E2 after a bit of time passes) with the 18-55. I think that I could probably keep on the path that I am on, and then pick up a Fuji X-E1 or 2 later on. The cost of doing that will probably work out to be...

Demiro you are exactly right: it is not final, I can always change and it is just an issue of $'s which can be planned for an mitigated so that it becomes less of an issue. The other key point is that is "a reasonable fee for the lack of ability to make a choice and stick with it". Brilliant...

Thanks Ray! I had not heard about so many QC issues with Fuji. I think that is because I was too busy being frustrated with AF point issues on my NEX 6 (which have now been resolved with a factory reset after the latest update) and not paying attention to Fuji concerns. I think I felt like I...

Thanks John! I think this is a great point! There was a reason why I chose the NEX 6 over the Fuji line as a move from Sony A-Mount. I also made a conscious move to the a6000 (this is because is was basically $350 with the Zeiss 16-70 which I was planning on buying anyway as a replacement for...

Luke - This is what I need to do... I do this way too often. I have always over analyzed larger purchases and often have buyer's remorse because I feel like I made the wrong decision. Forums have been the cause of a lot of this, but I find so much other great value from them I can't not read...

Life is way too short for this!!! I did go back and forth between the X-E1, the NEX 6, and an A77 because they all felt good (I completely agree with with the feel and desire to use being the most important aspect in buying buying a camera! Some of my favorite images are from a Sony...

So this is either going to get completely ignored or it will be pounced on by many with lots of input! I am posting this on the Serious Compacts forum to see if I can get both sides instead of input from just one group of mirrorless users. To make a long story super short, I have become...

I have to agree with Gubrz... Nice! [emoji6]

+1 on "Ready For a Swim"! Such an amazing shot to me!!!

Lol! That is awesome :) My kiddo picked up using "lame". But, it is lengthened to "luh-uh-ame!" as in "Daddy, you are luh-uh-ame..."

I have yet to visit Austin, and now I guess I need to add Milwaukee to the list!!!

I love that ot is called "Hippie Hollow"! I am in the Portland, OR area, and that looks like a place you would find around here! I guess the sun makes it a little more appealing there though... ;-)

Great shots Gubrz! You are kinda makin' me want to visit Austin! ;-)

We just need to stop buying the latest and greatest and then the "classics" will endure! (I bought a NEX 6 in October. My replacement a6000 should be arriving at the end of the month...sigh...)

You will be very happy with the X20! It is an amazing little camera! I have had mine for about 15 months and it is the ONLY camera purchase where I have not worried that I made the right choice... as soon as it was in my hands, I was in love! After I got it, I pretty much stopped using my...

Poor little guy :-(

Fuji x20 was the right answer for me when I was searching. Have had it almost a year and a half and have never regretted my decision! ... that's a first for me with cameras btw ;)

Hopefully your recuperation is going well! What an amazing opportunity to bond with family and to produce a wonderful series of images! Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

I have a little bias as a very happy owner of an X 20 for the past year, but I would highly recommend the Fuji. I compared the same cameras you are talking about. With the comparison between the Leica and the Panasonic, it kept coming down to the bundle and the name. The Panasonic was much...

Absolutely amazing images! The "melt shop" shots are awesome, but the portraits really struck me... thank you for sharing these! Sent from my DROID RAZR using SeriousCompacts mobile app
