Really good Fujoto Sir, with some fine detail, well composed, and nicely lit.

Thank you much appreciated That 80mm Macro is looking ever more tempting!

I like it, it's almost impossible to get full body sharpness without stacking, which is a massive pain and takes the fun out if macro imo.
Either a sherpa, a donkey, or a wife (all terms interchangeable)OK then - new bag time! I need to carry my X-T1s, 100-400, 18-55,10-24, 35 and 60mm, Flash, 100mm Square filter kit and food and supplies in one comfy bag. CUrrently have a Kata 123GO i30 which carries the kit OK but is a bit short on lunch space and I find it a PITA to get at gear quickly.
I liked my Naneu Pro bag better, but years of dragging it through bushes has ripped the top compartment so everything falls out! It was a bit snug on kit but held a decent lunch and was amazingly waterproof without using the extra cover.
What would we recommend?
Well that is everything now picked up from Jessops. A couple from the other day.

Good set of candid street style Fujotos Sir, particularly liking the com[position of the first shot.

I really like that. Incredible detail set against a beautiful sky!Just a simple tourist type Fujoto taken of the top end of the Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben).
I've done a bit of juggling about with the processing to give a high contrast mono presentation and a slightly different approach to that which is normally presented of this very familiar attraction.

for looking.,
George.
A very quick natural light shot of my 6 year old with my X-T2 and 18-55mm.
I love the files this camera produces!

Oh but there was a problem - I tried to do some exposure bracketing, but all the shots in the bracket are of identical exposure? As far as I can see I have set it up to AE bracket, +/- 1 EV in 3 shots. (X-T1)

Sort of makes sense I guess but I didn't realise auto ISO effected bracketing, still given it messes up TTL I suppose it would
Was Auto ISO on??
We've got a couple of days in HK in November and I was hoping to pick up some Fuji gear cheap. Any recommendations or tips?Was on holiday in Hong Kong and bought myself a 55-200 for my XT2.So far i am very impressed with it.

The John Rylands Library, Manchester had a photo hour today, where a small group were let in before the opening to the public, and allowed access to the balcony area, not normally open to the public. Managed to blow the highlights on the large window several times, will have top go back and do it properly!!

Finally got around to processing a few pictures from the Crete trip. My exercise for the week was to take colour pictures that made use of deep shadow or silhouette as part of the composition, and I found it very useful. Often when I looked at them later, I found that there was a bit more shadow detail than I had imagined, but there's no harm in that. Here's a typical scene from the back alleys of Chania, which also reminds me of the Luc Besson movie Diva, for some reason. The rider should really be wearing a pair of cool shades, but instead has opted for an expression of baffled irritation, probably because there is a stupid tourist standing in the middle of the alley! I used a bit of dodge and burn so you don't have to see it so clearly
