I think I need to sell before I get anything else I have 8mm Samyang,12mm Zeiss and following Fuji XF 14mm,16mm 18mm 23mm,27mm,35mm 56mm 60mm & 90mm So much for wanting to go lightweight lol
OCD or GAS I'm not sure which ? But still preferring XT1 & XT10 over my XT2 ???

Think long, thin doughnuts, ideal for dunking in thick hot chocolate...

They are a sort of thin batter squirted into hot oil through a shaped nozel. When I lived in Madrid in the 50's you bought them frome street vendors who cooked them in the street, then took them home for breakfas and dunked them in milky drinking chocolate.

You could also get churritos, which were the same mix but extruded much thinner in to sort of crossed rings and often eaten sprinkled with sugar. And eaten as finger food in the street. Almost as nice as calamaries eaten with a beer strolling late in the evening, before the eavening meal.
 
I thought Churros were like a cinnamon funnel cake, maybe you can just get cinnamon flavour ones too
 
Anyone here subscribed to the fuji love magazine?


Btw some recent shots with my xt2 + 35mm f2.0

Pulled a trigger for a Yongnuo 560 IV and the 560 TX for my XT1. Hopefully can do some off camera flash stuff when it arrive :)

Ace! Give us updates. I'm very interested in getting that or something similar and would be very interested in feedback

Sure man, I won't be able to tried it out fully till next Thursday or Friday. The flash and trigger should come this Friday tho. Both items with postage cost me £87. Not bad if it does the job. I original did think about buying the Nissin i40 or Metz M400, but I don't think I will use much on camera flash, so opted for the Yongnuo set instead. Something powerful to use off camera is more useful for my family portraits etc.
 
So just been out for a few photos with the x-t20 and this is the first time I've particularly used the evf. Am I missing something? For some reason the focus box and histogram show for like half a second and then all info disappears until I press the shutter button half way and the focus box only reappears when focus is achieved. This is highly irritating. Surely there is a way to keep the focus box being displayed but I can't find it in the menus. It stays on when the LCD screen is displaying

Doh! Of course you press the display/back button. What a wally!

Seems an appropriate time to repost a couple of shots from the X-T1 using Yongnuo YN560mk3's and the YN560TX

Just got back from a week in Eigg, plus two days to get there and another two to get back. This was from my very first night, with the ever reliable 18-55mm. It took a lot of time and energy to get there, but it was an excellent decision :)

And the weather was fantastic, albeit I could have used a few more clouds at times. Still, for Scotland in early May to have a dry week is something like a miracle!

David;

Such a STUNNING capture..!! You should have that professionally printed and hung proudly on a wall, and sell many of them, wOOOw. Exquisite.

What's the going rate for an 18-135mm these days? Mine was meant to be a companion to my X-T2, then after that went I hung on to it for IR work, but that's looking less likely to materialise now.

Aw, that's very kind. Thanks! I do currently have it in an exhibition for Oxford Artsweek, on until 9 June, so it has met two of your three criteria :). As for the third...well not yet! I can but hope... :)

Xt-1 has an update too, doesn't seem to do much though?

Not sure we can expect too much for the older models now mate. My X-T10 will likely have nothing further and the T1 is already an update or two ahead of that.

I don't expect, but if they're doing one anyway ... the XT-1 is specifically mentioned in the list but it looks to be just a back up and tether function for specific softwares, but Fuji often sneak in an improvement on AF with these updates. Or so people report each time.
