Does anyone have an adapter to mount M42 lenses on Fuji X (X-T20) ? I had the K&F Concept one in my Amazon wish list but it is now showing as unavailable - some of the other options look a bit clunky so wondered if anyone had a recommendation ? Thanks...

Great shot and well done on winning your comp. Although these are a sculpture, did you know they also serve as ventilation for an underground electric power station ?

Thanks for the feedback all and I do like the bird in 1 myself - thought it added to the photo.

Haven't used my camera much for a few months so took the chance to have a wander around the Square Mile and along the Thames for a few hours at the weekend. Felt very much out of practice but good to be out again and looking for shots... Untitled by Gary Smith, on Flickr Untitled by Gary...

I got quite excited to start with as the 35 1.4 is 232 quid - was all set to buy and then saw it wasn't amazon and looked a bit suspect - guess it was too good to be true....

A few more from my wander yesterday - felt quite out of practice in seeing a shot so need to get out more.. Untitled by Gary Smith, on Flickr Untitled by Gary Smith, on Flickr and a cliche shot that has been done many times before and better.. Untitled by Gary Smith, on Flickr

I end up with almost all of my stuff as B&W so would have expected to go for that version, but think I prefer the colour version this time. Think maybe that the tones stand out better in the colour - not sure. Lovely scene either way.

Interesting to read the thoughts on the 35mm - I was looking to get the 1.4 to complement the 18-55 and hadn't really considered the 23mm - might actually go and try them before I buy anything ! Haven't used my X-T20 in months for various reasons, but had a wander round the Square Mile and the...

I haven't used one of these myself but been looking at one of these for when I want to just have the camera in my normal backpack and not my camera bag http://www.crumpler.eu/the-inlay-zip-protection-pouch-xs-sunday-blue http://www.crumpler.eu/the-inlay-zip-pouch-s-black Looks like it may be...

Like the toning here and the symmetry of that second one - really want a wander around London (don't get time during the work week) but it's rare they have a train service in at weekends for now !

Fair enough and everyone is entitled to their opinion, am just curious what informs that opinion. It's no big deal to me really, but sometimes see a point of view that differs from my own that I like to understand it.

I don't have a Sony but this thread is super busy and entertaining - reading this, genuinely curious - does it matter if a camera looks like a compact, or indeed, is a compact ? Isn't it the results that you get from the camera that matters, not what it looks like ?

HK is awesome - I have been there a few times for work in the past and by the time I went on my last trip (several years ago now), I had gotten into photography and was lucky enough to have some free time to get out with the camera - Places possibly worth a look: Lantau - home of the Big Buddha...
