    Thanks. I couldn't pick up the 16-80 in time, and this was my other consideration but I couldn't get either delivered in time before I head off. I've decided just to take the 18-55.

    Ahhh great now I'm watching reviews of the 16-80 and considering splashing out. :ROFLMAO: Looks like it could be a good option!

    Hey all. I'm heading to Majorca for a week to do some sightseeing (mainly small towns, markets, etc) and can't decide what kit to take and carry! Part of me thinks take it all just in case, but part thinks that's silly, and keep it light with one lens. Logic says the 18-55 gives me best...

    Bought a Synology 2 or 3 years ago. Has been rock solid.

    Thanks. I've noticed lots of talk on YouTube videos about the aperture rings on Fuji lenses (and moreso complaints of them missing on some lenses) but I've never used them before so don't think it's a necessity for me. (y)

    Question for the wise and experienced readers please... Which is better... A used Fuji 56mm f/1.2R for £399 or used Sigma 56mm f1.4 DC DN Contemporary for £318...?

    Just thought I'd share a few from a recent night walkabout in London with my new X-S10 and 90mm f/2, just getting to know it better. I found the 90 to be a bit close at times, so am wondering if the 60mm would be better...

    I've just posted my X-T30ii in the classifieds as I've decided to keep the X-S10, in case anyone wants one. :)

    I've fallen into a bit of a love/hate relationship with my X-T30ii due to its ergonomics. I have just been browsing the Wex site and my finger accidentally slipped and ordered an X-S10! :eek: It'll be here tomorrow then I'm heading to Cardiff for a couple of days. Need to do some research into...

    Ah yes I've used Reggies Portra a few times and have it set up on the camera. I'll invest some time in it and see how I get on. Thanks! PS his b&w recipe is pretty good. That's what I used in the pics I posted a couple of weeks back.

    Can anyone please recommend a recipe for getting bright colours? I've been using Kodachrome64 for most pics and like it, but I want something that really makes colours pop. Thanks!

    Can anyone recommend a brand of aftermarket batteries for the X-T30ii? I'll buy original if they're worth the extra money, but at generally double the price, it seems unlikely...

    After seeing the XT4 in person I decided to stick with the X-T30ii due to the size difference. I've deactivated the Q button and moved the function to the Fn button to see if that helps...

    Thanks. The viewfinder was a minor niggle so that's a good bonus.

    Hey all. I keep hitting the Q button on my new X-T30ii and it's driving me mad! I've got the opportunity to exchange it for an XT4. Other than the XT4 being slightly bigger, is there any reason why this is a bad swap? Thanks!
