Is it affecting the image on the card, or just on the back of the camera?

Why do you need a female thread? Are you thinking of attaching the base of a monopod to this? I'm thinking leverage will be your enemy here. I've used a "superclamp" for this plus a "magic arm" (I can provide links if you'd like, but not from my phone!). How's your neice's movement & control -...

Thanks Adam. I recently stumbled across the x-t10 and it really got my interest. I know little of the fuji range, or where the x-t10 sits within it, but I'm tempted to do some research - even though I'm quite happy with my own kit! Mike.

Which Fuji have you opted for, if I may ask? I've noticed this trend and wonder if I'm missing out!

I love mine, too. I use it mostly for portraits, using a full frame camera, but find it too 'long' for indoor portraits using a crop sensor camera. That said, one time when I had enough space, it was great on a crop as well.

I prefer the second Dana shot. Whilst looking at the first one, without knowing there was another photo, something didn't quite look right about her eyes - is she staring into the distance behind you, perhaps? Then I saw the alternative shot... no contest. Great work!

Is there any chance that the rear element of the Helios could be hit by the mirror? I'm talking full frame (5Diii), if that's a factor. Unless I've missed it, nobody's mentioned this through the thread. Mike.

Only a flesh wound. I'm sure a certain photographer could still shoot a wedding with it.

Agreed - mine was a present :-)

Really like mine... am using it a lot!

Ah, I see. Impressive result!

Simply beautiful. If you don't mind me asking, did you use an ND?

Me too, but settled on a £3/day rate here: 53.6781, -1.4931 (if you're lat/long inclined). Five minute walk and, usefully, the car park fence finishes at the south western corner otherwise it would have been a ten minute walk.

I went yesterday afternoon, too. I would have watched the film, but some bloke was hogging the sofa ;-) I confess, apart from a shot or two, I didn't really 'get' the rhubarb stuff. I really enjoyed his other collections though, and would go back again if I lived nearer. Thanks to the OP for...

Ok, ok, I hear you ;-) Creatively, an aperture of f/2.8 is more important to me than the 105mm focal length of the Sigma, so I agree with you (thank you for sharing your experiences) and the decision is made. Next, the painful part!
