    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    Wise move, IMO there is very little point in ending up with system duplications, one system just ends up being an expensive paperweight. I'd definitely consider an X100-WCL though, its very small and light enough to slip in a pocket, and will give that 'bit wider view' when you've decided to...

    Fixing a bent CF card pin

    This ^ but be very careful, its very easy to 'snap' pins if they are straightened too quickly. I would also leave a card in position and download via USB Since a 20D is worth very little it is worth attempting a DIY repair. If it does all go badly, then an 'upgrade to a 40D would be good move...

    A man can only have one hipster camera …… Just get yourself a WCL…….. Of course for the price of an X-T5, 16-55mm mk2 and your X100VI, you are very close to the price of a Q3. Just saying :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    Is this a laptop or a desktop? If the latter why not upgrade one of the internal drives to something with bigger capacity??

    Why are people buying electric cars?

    The way its charged will also affect the battery state of health - lots of fast charging will degrade the battery more. Its also been found that battery health degradation slows down over time, ie it potentially uses more battery health in the first few years.

    The use of AI ??!!! I gave ChatGPT one of my images (taken on an X-T2 with XF16mm F1.4 lens back in 2018) Chester - Storyhouse by David Yeoman, on Flickr Along with the words “convert this image to look like a 1930s railway poster, the location is Chester” and it came back with ChatGPT...

    CPL filters for car and bike photography?

    IMO they have their uses, they can be fiddly to use if you have a hood on the lens, but they can reduce relections, and help cut through glass Bigger vented hoods (like the official Fuji one for your X100VI) do allow better finger access, but they are a riight PITA on traditional tubular hoods...
