    Laowa 9mm

    Really interesting lens! Did anyone find a shop to buy this lens already?

    Double exposure time is 1EV steps, or am I missing something? Should be fine for most tasks...

    Yes, the AF system of the bodys improved a lot since the X-Pro1 came out.

    Official Fuji X-Pro 2 thread

    Let's post some images again. Here I played with an OM 50/1.4 and Baveyes focal reducer adapter, no perfect sharpness expected. I like the picture anyway, the colours this lens produces is very nice, didn't change the colours at all in post processing. winter mud 1 by madSec, on Flickr

    Official Fuji X-Pro 2 thread

    My favorit vocal length is as well 23 mm, but I have the 23/1.4 and love it to much to exchange it for the new 23/2. I had the 18/2 for quite some time and really liked it for its charakter, but at least my lens was very soft in the corners and I couldn't really use it for landscapes. Unlike...

    Official Fuji X-Pro 2 thread

    Since the Fuji Cameras are very well in handling noise, and the noise looks quite organic, I usually choose the minimum setting for noise reduction (-4). And because of the very good lenses I use half minimum for the sharpness setting (-2). Highlights, Shadows and Clolours depend a lot on the...

    Official Fuji X-Pro 2 thread

    You might want to think about the new 23/2 instead of 18/2 and 27/2.8 since the 18/2 is not a very good lens overall. It has a nice character but is lacks sharpness in the edges of the frame. The 23/2 is a bit wider, more like a 21mm, and it's weather sealed too. 14/2.8 and 35/2 are very nice...

    Official Fuji X-Pro 2 thread

    As far as I now the viewfinder eyecup problem was only an issue of some early models and is fixed in newer batches. According to Fuji service the eyecup is glued to the viewfinder and if it comes of it should be fixed by the service. I have my X-Pro2 for about 6 month now shooting quite a lot...

    Critique Some pictures from Hamburg

    Photos at top post should have stayed the same. As I said, no. 29 didn't change much, but no. 40 is a much tighter crop now.

    Critique Some pictures from Hamburg

    Thanks very much @TLR-330! The tunnel in colour is also my favorit, maybe I try the other one in colour as well. In the meanwhile I decided to recrop 40 and 29, find them much better that way, what do you think (okay 29 didn't change to much)? 40_hamburg_2016_recrop by madSec, on Flickr...

    Fuji X70 Owners Thread

    The outcome of the video was quite surprising for me, especially that Canon and Nikon were rated best in this test. JPGs of my D90 where not bad in terms of colour, but noise reduction was terrible and white balance was off very often. Maybe Nikon improved here... With the Fuji JPGs I am very...

    Fuji X70 Owners Thread

    @owenb One thing to know about the digital zoom however is that it doesn't work when recording RAW files. Even without using RAW processing on PC the internal RAW converter of the Fuji cameras is very nice to have. Therefore I never used the digital zoom on my X70, but I find the X70's lens a...

    Fuji x100

    Is DigitalRev usually right about discontinued products? But it wouldn't surprise me, also the X30 became unavailable from one day to another, and the X-T10 is out of stock on Amazon for a while now. Maybe Fuji changes quicker than expected to the new sensor generation?

    Help! What would you keep & sell?

    You might really have a closer look on the X-Pro2, it is the X-Pro1 in just everything better! It gives you even better low light performance, even 12800 is quite usable. I don't know what the Sonys give you though. Personally I found it hard to have two systems in parallel, tried it a long...
