Picked mine up today to accompany the 50-140 .. That is all the glass I will ever need on my X-T1. both are exceptional.

I can tell you from experience that the Fuji cashback backlog is HUGE! I waited over 3 months for mine and ended up with my having to nag them with countless phone calls to urge them to sort it out. Im not knocking them at all but the cashback is handled by a 3rd party company... just saying.

the 56 is excellent, it becomes the equivalent to 85mm on the Fuji.

its all about the veiwfinder for me, the X-T1 has a wonderful finder. X-E2 is falling in value like a brick from a window. I have the X-T1 and a buddy HAD the X-E2 and the feel (for me) was horrible and the EVF was very tight and gritty in comparison. My buddy now owns an X-T1 and traded his...

Some of you may know me, I have had the privilege of owning/using near enough every brand, model of camera gear from Zenit to PhaseOne. I have since settled my own personal camera bag down to a Leica Monochrom and a Fuji X-T1 (for colour).. I shoot the Leica glass on the fuji with an adapter. I...

Love the Lakes, love your photos too, must go back very soon

They lent me that thing for a few weeks to test out and to be honest it's a pile of dung to use, I was forewarned before taking it for a spin that I would not like it.. I think they need a small DP Merrill with interchangeable lenses, maybe in Leica mount hahahahaha I wish.

I used to have all 3 but my very good friend Ricardo decided he liked them too much and took them home with him... Mind you, he did leave me with a very nice lens for my Leica in return. I do miss them and I have banged on at Sigma UK to make one with a changeable lens system

expose for the background fill flash your subject the flash is too harsh IMO the shutter too fast ISO too low. I was always taught that the best way to shoot outdoor flash portraits was like this. It is not an easy thing to do takes a bit of patience and practice.

I think I have shot with most brands and formats at some point in my life from Barbie Cam to Hasselblad and have arrived to this point in my life where I own A Leica M Monochrome and a Fuji X-T1, the Fuji can accomodate the Leica glass via adapter but I also have a very decent set of fuji X...

Hello Laudrup, yes it is and to be quite honest I am not impressed with it at all, the fit is not good. I had an M240 before the Mono and it has an Arte Di Mano case and the quality and fit was exceptional, the price is similar too. The case was included with the camera, please don't get me...

Was really nice bumping into you at the Zoo after so long. Here's one of mine from the day.

Glad to see some good Leica stuff around here ... might be an idea to try to do a street shooting GTG around Southbank. This is my gorgeous Monochrom with the Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f1.5ASPH

As per title, I shoot with Leica these days and I also own a Fuji X-T1 system that will soon be sold (I only want a single system in my bag). Are there any other Leica users out there? What do you shoot how do you find it blah blah blah

Thank you Carl I will take a look at that as an option. I have just decided on my new Photography 'Project' for this year and very excited about it.. sadly I will have to wait for my camera to get back from Germany having a new sensor fitted :(
