    screen protector

    Can you not just get the GGS 3 inch screen protector from Amazon? The 7D has a 3 inch screen, doesn't it? I have one of these on my X100. Goes on easily and was fairly easy to remove after I managed to smash it...

    Slow-synch flash in manual on an X100

    Thank you all for the advice and I'll have another crack at it soon :) @Phil V I kind of got the impression from the tutorials I've watched and read that it would be preferable to fire the flash at the end of the exposure. But, I agree, it shouldn't make a difference with a static (well, nearly...

    Slow-synch flash in manual on an X100

    Thank you. This seems to make sense. There is no rear-curtain sync available to me at all, so I'm guessing I'll have to either use a torch to light her at the end or get a flash unit that I can fire manually. @HoppyUK I did fire the flash at the start of the exposure but it really made very...

    Slow-synch flash in manual on an X100

    Please forgive me if this is in the wrong forum... I have been getting started with some light trails (wire wool spinning & light graffiti) and have had some decent results on my X100. However, one of the shots I wanted to do was to start the exposure, use a torch to outline my friends body...

    Charing Cross arches

    Love this! Without the fella with the 'brella it would be bland ;)

    Fuji X100 alternatives?

    I've found this on the odd occasion, but only when composing. The final image on those occasions turned out perfectly normal.

    Which distro are you using?

    The Shard, London.

    WOW! I've gotta get me a ticket! Yeah, some of the shots look a little lifeless, but who cares? This is all about seeing London from a different angle and that's all that matters here. St. Paul's looks lovely and the shot of the pinnacle is something relatively few will see. By the way, what...

    Love these, especially St Paul's. Never tire of seeing that, it always look beautiful at night.

    Wonderful colours, lovely shot :)

    Pics from a night walk..

    Love five and six. Been to Bournemouth a few times and it never struck me as being the kind of place that would be so quiet at night!

    What compact camera do you use?

    Just got an X100, but I really cannot call it a compact compared to the LX5 it's replacing. So, it's not a DSLR nor a CSC and is, to my mind, not a compact. A Midi, perhaps?

    Fuji x100

    Received my X100 yesterday from John Lewis. I've had to dip into the overdraft for it, but I'm a John Lewis partner and had to get in quick before we sold out so I could get my discount on it! Quite a step up from my Lumix LX5 and it's gonna take some time to get used to the ins and outs of it...
