so i took my new x-t1 camera out with me at the weekend. just some snaps while learning the menus etc. impressed by both the 27mm and 35 f1.4. i was going to sell the 35, but might keep hold of it.
haven't had a chance to test out all the different film simulators but not sure if its worth it or not as i shoot raw anyway.

the Mrs didn't mind the camera and 27mm being put in her hand bag.

Very nice shots, were these all taken with the 27mm ? What film simulations did you use ? I never realised Boo from Monsters inc was a real person !

The one of my wife and the boat were on the 27mm and the little girl was on the 35 1.4. Shot in raw.

Sorry you lost me with the monsters inc reference?

Sorry, the little girl is a ringer for one of the characters in Monsters inc, Boo.

Can you spank one for me as well?
And @Mr Perceptive is in desperate need but can't buy for himself this year. If you are a good friend you'd help him out!!!

The problem I've always found with credit cards is when I spank them, the beggars spank me back and I don't do submissive.

mickledore · 5 May 2016

Normally I'd ask for photos but just for once I'll pass. :bat:

Good call, especially as I do almost exclusively macro.

Beggar! Meant to send you a PM. Sorry mate. My little one is at Scouts camp and at the moment they've got me down as a reserve helper. If all goes well, yes. If not, no. Won't know until the night before.

mickledore · 5 May 2016

OK. 10AM in front of Euston Station is the meeting point. After that we could get anywhere.

That's no way to tell a story. What we need is facts, and plenty of them.
So...how many£££££?

That's a nice shot Sean, great full range of mono tones, good comp', and really like the way you've captured the person in almost silhouette against the lighter part of the image.

Thanks, George. Good observation on what I was trying to achieve.

Bad news 18-135 lens has developed an issue... OIS motor has broken "I think" and is constantly working even when OIS is off...

Can hear it quite clearly ...

Good news its off to WEX to be fixed... and I get a temp replacement to tide me over.

That's normal behaviour I thought, it's always powered up even if not enabled?

It's a lot louder than when I first got it. Not sure I could hear anything at all to start with.

There's also no difference using the lens handheld when I turn OIS on or off

Nice that Sir. Thought you were in Amsterdam? Funny route you've taken!

I know the very tip of the pencil is broken but do you think I could find a sharpener.
