The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

[yamahatdm900]

Just been having a look at some reviews, and they all seem pretty damn good plus I was gutted to lose the X-T20 when I traded it in.

For me the great thing about the X-T20 is that if you paired a couple of the f2 lenses and the 14mm (or the new 16mm) you have a very lightweight but extremely capable set up.

I loved my 35mm f2 on the X-T20 before I traded in.

Ha!

 

[Fuji Dave]

If anyone does get the X-T30, will this thread change it so you can post in here. I am actually thinking about getting the XF 16mm f2.8 though as it looks a lovely little lens and would be good for some architecture shots.

 

[Cagey75]

I imagine so, just as the T3 was added. I read you got an amazing price on a T3 Dave, lucky sod!

Yes you are right, brand spanking new and cost was £75

That's incredible! I don't often offer double what the owner paid, but in this case I'd make an exception if you like

Love how the bikes run you into the image. Beautiful b/w process!

Thank you kindly, much appreciated!

The Victorian charms of Christ Church Meadow, a place with which I'm mildly obsessed. A few years ago I would have shot this at f/8 but I find myself drawn to softer backgrounds at the moment...

Think that might have something to do with the man behind the camera as well.
Being a complete street knob do you find the IBIS useful for street?

That’s a little bit harsh... to be honest, as I’m moving a lot, it’s not really a consideration. More the ergonomics for me. I have large hands, and it just fits right

Street knob. I nearly spat my tea out when I read that last night.

It might well be getting traded in for a X-T30, as I`d rather have one X-T3 the X100F and then the X-T30 so they all work side by side. I`m not fussed it`s only one SD card slot and not WR.

 

[ashtennisguru]

We all need something other than cameras to be nerdy about
Nice watch ... I prefer something a little different from the "everyone and their dog has a *****" brigade (no offence meant to anyone who has one btw )

I really enjoyed my Oris, but decided to move it on along with a Baume & Mercier as they weren't getting any wear. I'm down to 4 now, ut no doubt I'll add another back in at some point!

Two “Excellent” Fujigraphs, I’d have been well happy to have shot either of them.

Liking this Fujigraph, nicely composed with a good lead in from the river/stream, nicely presented in mono with a full range of tones.

A couple from today's walk across the fields - taken with my X-T2 and a Meyer Optik Gorlitz Oreston 50mm f1.8 manual lens. The lens is not noted for its sharpness but when stopped down it is fine.

Taken at f8

Just a simple candid street style Fujigraph taken at Canterbury Kent UK of a guy looking like he's trying to create a bit of custom.

After going to Jessops today to get two SD cards I have decided to keep the both X-T3s as one will have my 90mm f2 on and the other can have the 35mm/50mm f2s on. Once I finish helping Mum in her flat this Thursday she is giving me the other X-T3

But did you go get one?

That`s the trouble, mate. Too many to wear ... I`m rather fancying a vintage King Seiko

Like it David the softer background works a treat on this subject

Street knob. I nearly spat my tea out when I read that last night.

Lol think I should have phased that better

I’ve been called worse

Know that feeling.

Two great images Graham, but the first is a cracker of a shot, nice dark and moody looking.

Cheers both, very kind. And that's an atmospheric shot of Brasenose Lane for sure Graham, pays to get out early!

Dave... I was thinking of going round Wednesday to help her, do you think she’ll let me have the XT3 afterwards

Talking of printing and framing, below is one I took with my XT2 that I loved so had printed large on aluminium.

Great shot of the world's most expensive coffee stall
