Enjoying the S5 Pro - Regained my mojo.

[PauloWanClift]

So nice having a decent camera back, well I've had a D40 (by no means rubbish) since the death of my D200, but replacing it with something different has breathed new life into my photography passion. And I blooming well like the S5 Pro a lot!

It's got to be one of the slowest cameras I've ever used, but I wouldn't part with mine

 

[PauloWanClift]

Yeah very slow, but I still managed some nice rugby game shots yesterday with it, I actually think its improving my technique as with the D200 I just used to hold the shutter down and then discard all but the ones that turned out good enough. Today was probably my highest keep ratio in a long time.

We use one as the office 'hack' camera and very good it is too...

I'd never use mine for sports, it would drive me demented :annoyed:

Well I may save for a D300 in time for next summer and more sports. But shhhhhhh, don't tell the missus

Glad you like it!

I was toying with the idea of getting rid of mine and moving to Canon, but I'm not so sure now.
I do love the colours on the Fuji, yes its slow, yes it takes ages to save as a RAW file, but it has character.




And P.S, you've got a dust spot in the first photo!

I've seen people that use them for motorsport.

By the time the car comes around on the next lap they just about finish writing to CF
