You mean we've to record ourselves singing, in order to get one? What is this, TP's Saturday Night Takeaway?

How long does the light stay on for if Eye Sensor is set to on? Does it turn off eventually? I'm thinking it could be a simple capacitor taking a while to discharge, if it does extinguish after a short while. If not, then it's a firmware bug that should be a fairly straightforward fix that can...

Worth feeding that back to Fujifilm, just in case it is a bug which they can remedy within a future firmware update.

You have the end url bracket in the wrong place, that's what is causing the text to be bold. If you quote this in a new window and edit your own post, using More Options and selecting the icon on the far right of the toolbar (folded corner paper and spanner), you'll be be able to compare and see...

Have you tried reinstalling the firmware on both the body and lens, just to see if it might have an effect? If it doesn't make a difference, then might be worth speaking to Fuji about it, see what they can suggest or know about it, and a future update to resolve it is being worked on.

I need to stop checking this thread…..it's seriously harming my sanity. Just when I thought I'd finally settled which way to go (Pentax K5 IIS vs Fuji X-Pro 1), this makes a bid for my money too.

Don't dismiss the Horus stuff – I was all set to get a really good deal on a Redged (RTC332, iirc) a year ago, but they were transitioning to the new 8x technology and their own design highlights, which looked very nice. So I said I'd hold off until the new ones came in, and do a bit of a review...

Rigidity becomes more of an issue when you extend the legs – the smaller the main diameter, the smaller each subsequent section, especially when you start going into 4 or 5. As said above, that's where the compromises come in – folded size vs ultimate rigidity vs weight. Stability, which is...

Turns out it was AdBlock which despised Flickr – bit of tweaking what's considered an ad, and I can see it now.

Christ that's a hateful site! Not seeing the EXIF info Stuart, and the Safari plug-in isn't pulling it up, so either Flickr hides it from casual browsers or it's been stripped.

No worries – one thing you will likely need to do is juggle handling the lens, the hose, and holding the aperture blades' lever in the open position. A bit of blu-tack would've eased that aspect, so you can concentrate on the connector and rear of the lens interface maintaining a close fit to...

If you're seriously contemplating the Sony, would you also not give the Fuji X-T1 a shot, with the 23mm prime to give the same 35mm effective as the X100S? Of course it's not FF, but would that really matter?

I had a good few "crumbs" in a lens I bought along with the camera (both since moved on to new owners), which bugged me after a couple of weeks since acquiring them. Took the vacuum cleaner to the lens, and that was the end of them. The connector at the end of the flexible hose was a perfect...

Just thought it was a bit strange to see most of the recent conversation about the 14 and 18, and 35 and 60. It struck me as odd there wasn't much mention of the 23 or 27 lenses, unless everyone has a 100 or 100S to satisfy the 35mm (effective) angle. Just wondered if there was something about...

Strange how none of you have either the 23 or 27mm, instead of the 18mm — any reason for skipping those two?
