I had to look up images of Padley Gorge, not my kind of place but I have to admit there are some great photographs of it taken at this time of the year, if you are reasonably local it must be worth a look especially if shooting one of the more saturated films.

I was stunned by how well my EOS 300 f/4 L worked on the Fujifilm XT-4 using a Fringer EF-FX pro adapter. FOS Off Road #3 _DSF1785e20260712 by Keith Hudson, on Flickr Visibility was very poor due to all the chalk dust. Given that the lens has sat un used for about ten years, and all I have to...

I am very pleased with the Viltrox 9mm on my X-T4, though not 40MP and I am easily pleased. You are welcome to search Viltrox or 9mm on my Flickr if you like. - Actually don't do that I have not key worded the lens.

Looks like an old goods wagon, if so it has probably been repurposed as a shed for the last fifty plus years.

Wow, I am sure I have a couple of large P Beard easels stashed away which I bought in the early 2000's at least one of the was far too big for my Durst L1000 there again I have just seen what they (the enlargers) are offered for.

Thank you, I was looking at the lighthouse this morning thinking I should know where it was as E.Yorks was mentioned on Flickr but could not quite place it. Well it has been forty years since I have been there, I guess only the cars have changed.

I can't remember the exact phrase but when displaying imported files you can either have them stack if the file name is identical except DNG JPG or you can display both DNG and JPG at the same time. Not a very good explanation I am afraid as I only use LRC for cataloguing but did come across...

I did not doubt that you would be happy with the images you got from the X-E5, it was always the user experience alongside the X-T4 that interested me and I think you have come to a similar conclusion to me even if I did not use a X-E5 in the great outdoors.

My recent interest and subsequent purchase of a X-Pro showed that the ordinary black paint 3 can be bought for less than some are asking for a 2, the drua black or dura silver X-Pro3 s have a £200 to £300 plus premium over the black paint something I was not paying.

The X-E5 was on my recent list of possibles but as above I went for some thing else, I guess if I was more of a jpg shooter the film simulation dial on the top plate might have swayed me more. I will be interesting to hear how you got along with it aside the X-T4.

Recalling my should I get a X-Pro3 comments, it turned up on Friday as expected, in time to charge the battery and run off a few frames at home to check all was working and familiarise my self with it whilst setting up my menu and a few other functions the same as my X-T4 Saturday saw a trip to...

I have been doing a lot of digital recently but was going to do last weekend's photowalk on film until I realised too late that my stash of KM400 and Tri X was all gone !!!! * I could have called in at WEX on my way to Stratford for replacement film but instead took the digital camera, looking...

I figured that the only way to find out was to buy a X-Pro3 which will be here on Friday, on Saturday I have a photowalk planned so by Sunday I will let you know if it was a good idea or not. :)

I think you were very generous to the driver. I also think that the helmet camera footage shows you and your mate following to be riding in a very sensible and aware way, I am pleased you had it.

I only mentioned the X-T6 launch as that would potentially be a good time to pick up a second X-T4 body.
