@trevorbray - I'm liking the look of these images shot on the new gear mate. If my kidney's weren't knackered I'd sell one
Love this! Is this done with the panorama feature in camera, or stitched together in post afterwards?OK, last one of these for a while, I promise. This time a 180 degree vertorama of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan:

The advice that I was given was just to get an order in somewhere, they do seem to be filtering through, but they are usually pre-sold. Mine was available 8 days after pre-ordering at my local camera shop.Typical, the time I want to buy an X100V and they are out of stock everywhere

From memory this was from seven horizontal shots stitched in lightroom then kind of levelled in photoshop before finishing in Lr again. Surprisingly easy. The hard bit is accepting you look like a lunatic taking photos behind youLove this! Is this done with the panorama feature in camera, or stitched together in post afterwards?
I have just bought a Nodal Ninja on ebay but left for Italy just before it arrived so this is handheld again. I take the first five or so shots with my eye to the viewfinder leaning further back each time. At some point my core "muscles" (fat) can take no more and I rotate the camera over my scull until I am taking the shot backwards, looking like an escaped lunatic. Thankfully this gallery is full of models, wannabe models, Instagram models and plain old tourists striking poses so nobody was paying me any attention. I felt slightly more conscious when doing it in Southeark cathedral!Totally bonkers, but I love these
Still can`t quite work out how you pivot, without cracking your back

I much prefer this one, to the mono you put on Flickr. Lovely inky bluesTrying something a little different - I have an X-T1 sitting doing nothing and was considering converting it to infrared. Before I commit, I've borrowed an infrared converted Xpro1 for some testing. Lenses are finicky when using IR, and my usual 18-55mm is unsuitable. I pinched the XC 16-55mm from my girlfriends setup and while it's better for IR, it's pretty poor in general.
I'll be looking for an 18-135mm, since they're considered pretty good both in general, and for IR.
Either way, despite it's issues, I quite like this as a first result -

Nice oneThanks, me too. It was my first time shooting IR and the processing for colour seemed a bit daunting, especially dealing with the hotspot before starting the rest. Fortunately with that lens the hotspot is only really a temperature change rather than exposure too - With that in mind I decided to process mono at first and keep things simple.
I decided to be brave and take a crack at the colour afterwards, and it worked out better than expected!
Nice one
There must be a big IR thing going on at the moment. Whole bunch form my camera club are getting right into it too
Ahh that might well be the case then.It might have something to do with Thomas Heaton... He's recently done a couple of videos on it, and while i've been thinking about it for a while, his videos tipped me over the edge.
These have rendered nicely Trev. Do you process your Fuji files differently to the Sony as they seem to lack a little contrast in comparison, almost like the shadows have been lifted?For you old Rockers

Thanks Toby. Still getting my head around processing these. No shadow lifting. More practice needed.These have rendered nicely Trev. Do you process your Fuji files differently to the Sony as they seem to lack a little contrast in comparison, almost like the shadows have been lifted?
Nothing wrong with them at all, was just an observationThanks Toby. Still getting my head around processing these. No shadow lifting. More practice needed.
Need to check for you. The big advantage is being able to pick the exact moment.That looks good, how many of the 40 do you recon were keepers?
I’ve had that setup Jase. Have to say it’s superb.Due to an accident a couple of weeks ago resulting in various injuries including broken finger etc. I’m off work for a month or so. There’s no way I’m going to carry my usual camera gear and I have the urge to buy another Fuji while I await the X100V to come in stock.
So anyway thinking of getting an XT4 with a 16-80 lens as an all rounder. What is the 16-80 like? I used to like the 18-55 kit so not sure if I should go that route instead.

Initial reviews of the 16-80 are all over the place - most liked the lens as an all-rounder with very effective OIS, but pointed out soft corners at the longer focal lengths and some focus wobble with video shooting and zooming. Not sure if any firmware updates fixed these issues?Due to an accident a couple of weeks ago resulting in various injuries including broken finger etc. I’m off work for a month or so.

I did see a review which mentioned the focus wobble when zooming, be interesting to know if that was fixed as that’s a pretty major issue.

Yeah. Let’s not go there..Is that photography or effectively extracting a still from a video?? Just asking for a friend…..
Yeah. Let’s not go there..

Trying the Animal detect on the dog
Probably the toughest test, he's heading straight for me at top speed.
some atmospherics at work here.
Not too bad a result.

Thing is Toby. I’m looking for a particular positioning of the dog. Once I’ve settled on it I don’t bother with the rest. Yes it’s a massive number for 2-3 seconds. Great fun though.40fps That’s a lot of images to sift through
Yeah I can understand that, I'm always looking for "that pose".Thing is Toby. I’m looking for a particular positioning of the dog. Once I’ve settled on it I don’t bother with the rest. Yes it’s a massive number for 2-3 seconds. Great fun though.
