I sold my GRIII last week. I told the lady at the PO counter it was a camera with a battery. She was fine and just asked me to send it 48hr Tracked/signed. I can’t remember if it was £500 or £1000 insurance (something at the back of my mind says £500 ). I think I paid £9 something.

Quick update. Really enjoying the X-T3 Obviously muscle memory is a problem but they will subside soon. Took it out for a spin around Coventry yesterday and Leicester today. Hated all my shots yesterday !! But, it was mostly to try to get to know the camera than be successful with the...

Thank you so much for all your help, and to everyone else who contributed. In the end, I plumped for a brand new, all black, X-T3 and the 18-55. I'm no zoom fan but I thought I'd give it a go. I also don't want to do it disservice by calling it a kit lens. I know there's love out there in the...

Many thanks for the reply. Hugely appreciated. Park Cameras have accepted my description of my Sony 16-35 and have now offered me their initial price (same £ as before seeing the lens). This will almost cover the cost of either a brand new X-T3 and lens, or an X-S10 and lens. I've looked at...

It really was/still is a close call for me between the X-S10 and X-T3. I love the deep, deep grip on the S10. That's a big selling point for me. The IBIS is also a bonus although I'm ok without. I love the size of the S10 too. PASM - I don't really know how I feel on that. Now I feel I'm on...

I'm about to finally join the Fuji party!! I completely lost my mojo for 2 years during lockdown but have it back again. I stumbled across the X-S10 two weeks ago (I'd never heard of it until only then!!) That piqued my interest in Fuji once again so I decided to sell my Sony 16-35 ƒ2.8 to...

How you finding 40mm? I know it's popular

I’ll have a look for some of my high ISO files Mark. I know when I was sussing it out, I think I shot accidentally at 6400. I know I shot a fair bit at 3200 too. I thought I’d capped the ISO at 1600 but obviously hadn’t.

I discovered mine does have a wobbly wheel. I didn’t know until I looked for it!! My serial No. starts 0019xxx This thread is for EVERYONE. I’m not precious and in fact, welcome any GR shots. ;-)

Had a couple of opportunities last week to shoot in Birmingham and London. I didn't have as long as I would have liked in either city, but it was better than nothing. Here's three from London. Nothing groundbreaking. I feel once I have these work shackles off me, I'll have a good run at using...

Thanks for that Sphexx. I remember now you’ve told me!! There is a reset in the 3 which I’ve tried. It doesn’t reset everything though even with all the boxes ticked. It still remembers my name, U1,U2 etc It’s no biggie. I’m learning about the menus and controls though.

Good Article. Thanks for that read. On a side note, I (probably wrongly) recall seeing a clip/documentary about William Klein and that first image. I think the boy posed for the shot/was asked to do that. I can’t fully remember. Sort of back on topic, to me, sharpness isn’t everything in that...

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: No, all operator error. Can't blame the tool (just the tool using it!) No alcohol or drugs involved :whistle: The shutter and aperture wheels are backwards to me. As in, they scroll the wrong way! I've done something to my settings (!!!) where I press the ISO button and it...

6) SOOC DMU Leicester. Wrong distance set on snap focus !!!! Set at 2m!! I was a foot away from her!!!! 1/500 ƒ/2.8 (!!!??!!?) ISO 2500

5) SOOC Coffee time Deliberate shutter speed this time. 1/6th ƒ/8 ISO 100
