I like to have raw on one card and Joeg on the other, so that when I plug the card into Lightroom I only get the raws. I also like having the jpegs for use with XApp on my phone, to pull an image to share quickly without going through Lightroom. It is a case of whatever works

There is a setting in LR Import Preferences which allows you to treat JPGs as separate files, turn it on it imports both RAW and JPG, turn it off and it only imports the RAWs

I tried the X-T5 out recently and found the grip much comfier than I was expecting, and much better than the X-T1 I had. I don't know if the grip's changed or I've changed but it took me by surprise. I can imagine with the bigger lenses it's not going to be substantial enough though.

I got a Small Rig grip which makes all the difference

I've got the Fuji hand grip on my T5. It makes it very easy and balanced to hold imho.

Paul & Craig have beaten me to it: I have the Smallrig grip on my X-T4 and it absolutely transforms the handling of the camera for me

Grabbed a quick photo of my car with the X100V before driving home from work this evening.

Spent the day at Brands Hatch (Test Day for the Masters Championship tomorrow - back there again!!!) Got loads of images to sort out, but here is a taster, with a 'classic' Brands Hatch View, as the car crests the rise before Druids

Very nice, the Shadows are fantastic looking cars. The masters is one of my favourite events, shame it's not coming to Donington this year, I'm too lazy to travel to Brands

There's no Silverstone festival this year either

I never looked at that as I had no idea what the BDRC classic was, however I already have plans that weekend

I have WSBK two weeks before, and the classic motorbikes the week after though so it's not all bad

That was strange. I was just reading your thread on PH where I saw this image then happened to read this thread straight after. Thought I was going mad! Lovely pic and lovely car.

Yeah, I get a picture I like and I'm sharing it all over the place.
