Just a simple candid street style Fujigraph taken at London UK of some folk that look as if they're enjoying a joke.

for looking.,

George..... am I to assume that was taken at 55mm ?
Great shot, the 10-24 is an awesome lensI just had to get a shot of the Clubby while parked on that hill too....

Bit more exploring around the new home, this time the top of Zigzag Hill just outside of Shaftesbury.

There will be more landscapes from me as we continue to explore this wonderful part of the country.
I'm a beginner (I know I've been here a little while but ill health has meant that I've done next to no photography over the last few years) and I'd like some advice please.
I'm hoping (health permitting!) to visit the Design Museum in London next week. I understand that photography is permitted, but flash photography is not.
I'll be taking my XT2 and either my 18-55 or my 18-135 - not sure which yet. I don't know if anything longer than the 18-55 is needed in museum?
I have no idea what the lighting is like or if there is any natural lighting. I was just wondering if any of you have any tips with regard to setting White Balance, ISO etc so that I can take some decent pictures of the exhibit? I know that if left to my own devices I'd probably leave everything on auto and hope for the best!
Thanks
Will you be using a tripod and are the exhibits static? If so then you could obviously go for a low SS. If n tripods, depending on how steady you are, you may be able to get down to 1/30 or even slower which may help.
Use manual with auto ISO. Say f=as fast as possible. Shutter 1/125th, maybe 1/60th Nothing is going to be moving.
I’d use the electronic shutter. Very quiet.
Auto white balance. I reckon the 18-55 will be ok
Thanks.
I should have said, no tripod. I don't expect (but don't know for sure) that anything will be moving. I'm presuming it is all static.
Both the 18-55 and the 18-135 have OIS, so hopefully I can handhold at lower shutter speeds.
Personally I’d take the 18-55 as I’d be surprised if you needed anything longer (actually I’d take the 16mm F1.4 if I really had the choice), the 18-55 is just smaller, more discrete, an extended 18-135 with hood will draw attention!!
Thanks.
I hadn't thought of using the electronic shutter, I've never used it before! But it makes sense in a museum.
The only reason I've considered the 18-55 is that it's smaller and lighter and (I think) slightly sharper than the 18-135.
Thanks for the advice - much appreciated.
The 18-55 is sharper and goes F2.8 at the wide end, the 18-135 is quite as good optically but the OIS is better

It`s a bit of a mixed light, but still a crazy good place to visit. I would go 18-55, and you`ll probably use the wider. I got a few pix on my flickr page, taken with the 14mm (started with 23, but that came off pretty fast).
Thanks, that's very helpful.
Have you tried installing the fuji software for mac? Truth be told, you are more likely to damage the usb socket on the camera than you are the sd card or the card slot on the camera. I've been removing the card from my various cameras for 15 years and not broken either yet but I've had my fair share of mini and micro usb ports give up over the years. That said, the newer type C ports seem to be a lot more resilient.
My 16-55 just left the building! Someone offered me the right amount and I couldn't resist. No idea what i want to get instead now ...
I`m still loving mine.
@Cagey75 .... I have a tripod foot in all camps bar Nikon....
I don't think i could handle that I like to keep it simple. Though, I guess if I had more money I might dabble about a bit more
First fuji lens for my lighter weight kit. Bought it used from wex for what I consider a steal.

It's an amazing lens, but in what world is it part of a "lighter wight kit"? It's almost 250g heavier than the canon 70-200/4 is for example. I love mine, but it just doesn't find its way into my travel bag very often sadly. But have fun, it is definitely nice and sharp.
