    Welcome to the Wex Official Thread on Talk Photography!

    I only had one experience I could not fathom at first. Sent in a Tamron 2.8 of some type, can’t remember the exact model. Got the report saying it had a large piece of debris only visible at f8 or higher. Though it odd as I had not noticed anything, ask for it to be sent back. On getting it...

    Welcome to the Wex Official Thread on Talk Photography!

    Hi Mat. I have had generally good experiences with WEX. Bought from you and sold to you. Made use of the 45 days return period a couple of times and think it is a good offering Ps please let me know on here first if you get a 9+ Fuji 18/2 in for about £200 ;)

    Has any one had the 16 f2.8 and the 18 f2 ? When you look at pictures, the 16 looks much bigger, but the stats show it as only 5mm longer

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    I had not really noticed the noise until you mentioned it, just tried it against my 16-80 & 50-230 and yes they are both silent and the 27 is noticeably noisier. But not quite as bad as I heard last night. I had forgotten how loud a DSLR shutter is in a quiet room. I was at an awards night at...

    I have mentioned before, I was in Oxford city centre a month or two ago and the 27 was not quite wide enough for me there. I will probably get the 18/2 this summer to complement the 27

    I finally found a use for cruise control.

    My OH still nearly got caught out by a speed limit change on the motorway. Dynamic cc does not change your speed until you go past the new speed limit sign. She went under a gantry that was showing 50, coming down from 70 and the gantry had cameras on it as well. We were never sure if the...

    I finally found a use for cruise control.

    I love it on my Puma, dynamic CC on an automatic. I have managed to drive from an A road onto the M25, half way around it and onto another A road again without having to brake of accelrate myself. Just need to keep your hands on the steering wheel for lane keeping (and to change lanes...

    I can’t remember the last time I used anything but the 27mm. Keep thinking I might take the 16-80 out, but didn’t bother in the end. I have a cruise coming up later in the year, a few old Mediterranean ports, I might invest in an 18mm as I found recently in Oxford that the 27mm was just not...

    Switching question

    I went from an e-m1 mk3 to a Sony A7 mk2 and regretted it almost straight away. I just never gelled with the Sony and I had done something I had moved to Olympus for in the first place, upped the kit weight. I decided to try something different and went Fuji, now have two of them and do...

    A BIT DISAPPOINTED WITH WEX
