Don’t get any of these issues with an XT-5

£805.50, that's my final offer!

I bought an XE5, as an everyday camera, not long after launch but never really got on with it and I continued using my Sony.
Having decided to give it another go, I've taken a few pics of a local village today and really enjoyed using it.

All were taken with 23mm f2.

I’m all for helping out a fellow tog and especially as you’re local. But for some reason on this occasion I just can’t take the hit. Losing just over £800 in 3 months and then needing to add another £500 to the money to get the X100 just makes no sense whatsoever

Must be getting old. Or tight

Skulks off to look at the size of the bag I now have to carry if I want to take my camera out

Has anyone else stopped getting email notifications when someone posts on a thread you're following/using? For some reason I've not been getting any notifications today

That happens to me occasionally, usually on one thread at a time. I usually unwatch it and then watch it again and it fixes it.

EDIT: I've just re-read your post and noticed that you mentioned emails. I have all the emails turned off, I just meant notifications on the bell icon.

Yes, not been getting email notifications for a few days

Couple more holiday snaps Clark County Museum, which is pretty cool. Lots of old houses and stuff etc.

Love the colours in them Paul, especially the first one. Is that the Wes Anderson recipe?

Thanks, Kerry.
Yeah with a little adjustment. Plus a gradient map on top (soft light).

Some recent street art in Southend on Sea. Don’t think I’ve seen these ones on previous wanders.

We were at the Goodwood Festival of Speed yesterday, I took my X-T4 which for the Offroad Arena I used a Fringer smart adapter and my EOS 300mm f/4 L. I have to say the combination performed better than I used to get with the EOS 1D Mk2N , the arena was so dusty you could hardly see the cars, I was blown away by the high percentage of nailed focus pictures.

And a static bike from the Monster stage.

As it was a trip with my wife I did not get to spend as much time as I would have liked on the hill climb or find a suitable vantage point to use the 300mm as it was afternoon by the time we made it to the hill and could not find a good point on the house side ie. with the cars and bikes not against the light.

Great shots! I was there yesterday too, haven't had a chance to go through my shots yet. I spent most of the day just past the flint wall, in a spot with a bit of shade

Thank you, in the past I have hunkered down at a good spot on the hill for a complete set of runs then moved to the rally stage for a complete set of cars before exploring the static cars and exhibitions. Not possible with a bored wife to keep entertained, I should not really complain as she bought the tickets
