Or possibly mine in the classifieds...£269.10 on the Fuji Refub store at the moment, using PAYPAL12 discount code.... If you already have lenses, it's a steal.....

Hah - a win's a win!@BT Bob Good win tonight Cymru ambith ! Well at least until tomorrow when Ireland beat England
Yeah there's still a real gulf between NH and SH , super rugby started again this morning, I've recorded the Reds v Waratahs game to watch maybe tomorrow after the Ulster v Cardiff game, Ireland tonight then the Frampton fight, full on sports weekend for sure.Hah - a win's a win!
Although, there's hasn't been anything yet from any of the NH teams to worry any of the SH nations, IMO.
North's try came from a real comedy of errors, but we'll take it!
Today, I will be mostly Irish - to be sure!!!!
LOL I hope not, but it's possible, Ulster are having an up and down kind of season. Big Stuart Mccloskey played well this evening, I have no idea why Schmidt took him off in 2nd half.I'm off to Dublin 2 weeks time for the Italy match, hope to get better results with my XT1 and 55-200mm (trying to keep this on topic ) I blame the welsh for my poor photos of the Ireland Wales game a few weeks back, I got into company with a couple of welsh boyos from Caerphilly in Doheny and Nesbitts before the match and had more Guinness than I'd planned to have, not conducive to steady shots OIS notwithstanding.I watched the 'Tahs v Reds this morning - 'Tahs looked very good.
I'll be at the Arms Park tomorrow to watch the mighty Cardiff Blues wipe Ulster out (famous last words )
But yeah - great weekend for the the rugby fans - started Thursday for me watching the Dragons v Glasgow...
I'll be in northern Sweden for the England v Wales match - doubt it'll be on TV anywhere, so will be taking the iPad and hoping I can VPN to the BBC iPlayer....

The flame still burns!!
Do you ever pine for something that you've had already?
Thanks

I have a dilemma
My Nikon D750 has to back for the shutter issue recall I have sent the form off etc now I have to wait I am due to go away at the end of April so need to make a back up plan in case it doesn't come back in time
I only have the 18 m and 27 mm primes for my pro1 at the moment I had planned to get at least one zoom for it but in the future now I'm thinking I should get at least one sooner
I am considering
XF18-55
and either
XF55-200
or
XC50-230
An alterative is to buy an adaptor and use my Nikon lenses
So if anyone has any helpful advice I would be grateful
18-135?
I forgot about the 18-135 tats would probably be the best of both worlds and maybe pick up a TC for longer reach hmm food for thought
Its a physically big lens (large diameter) so may obscure quite a bit of the OVF, just something to be aware of.
Thanks @Mr Perceptive I may wait until the photography show as I was planning on taking the Xpro1 as its Comic Con on at the same time so ay get a few shots.
Ok!

I ask about the attraction of the X-Pro1's files and decide that I like what I see!

X-Pro1 – Comparing the Fuji Look to the Fuji Look
Comparing the Fuji look to the Fuji look!!
Trying to define just exactly what I find so special about the X-Pro1...

This week's part of my X-Pro1 lust/hate/love story:

Fixing my focus issues with the X-Pro1!
How I stopped expecting the X-Pro1 to do something it couldn't and instead got it to do things that it could!
What is the best flash setup for X-Pro 1? I've done a search and found many results,most of which are from a few years ago.
My option is to sell my Nikon SB700 & replace it with a Fuji fit unit, if I do this which unit is comparable performance wise to this?
The alternative is to keep the SB700 and run it via a pair of Cactus V6's.
I'm also in the market for an X-T1 at the moment so would need to be a suitable flash for this too.
Thanks
Mark
Meike MK320 had reviewed well as well. Bit smaller than the nissin

It's Sunday! The first day of spring - the dawn of the 2016 MotoGP/F1 motosports championships. (don't tell me the result, I've been busy writing this!!)
But of course, it's also time for my weekly X-Pro1 story update!!
The X-Pro1: Sycophants Please Step Outside…
Sycophants Please Step Outside
Just because someone really likes something, doesn't actually make it good... But what ultimately is the most important USP? (Unique Selling Point)
Sunday rolls round once more, and while you're POSSIBLY accessorising with chocolate, I take a look at accessories in my part 8 of my X-Pro1 story!
http://adambonn.com/my-love-affair-with-the-fujifilm-x-pro1/xp1-eight/
Are accessories must haves, or merely pimping the ride?
Enjoy!
Thanks very much!
After about 7k words I contine to NOT run out of things to bang on about!!
Reciprocated on IG too
Haha it's a great camera. I found the more I used it, the more I learnt about it. I miss it in a way although there is a lot about my X-T that I love too.
Cheers
I also have a XT1 but I use the pro1 a lot more.
The XP1 is such a humble little thing, it just gets on with being a camera, without geo tagging anything, or trying to wirelessly connect to the kitchen sink or whatever the kidz expect their cameras to do these dayz
I tend to leave it on base ISO, use it in MF, the shutter dial on A, the EV wheel to get 1/3 shutter stops if needed and it's good to go!
I find the XT to be a bit 'oh yeah, must remember that tracking doesn't work if ES is selected' and things like that
The XP1 is more, 'oh yeah there is no tracking, hmmmm anticipate and focus traps it is then'
I feel that I work for the XP shots a little more, so when (if!!) they turn out ok, I get a nice sense of "I did that"
Cheers

When shooting with the X-Pro 1 I like to shoot in manual and adjust the exposure using the shutter speed, however I find it awkward to adjust the shutter speed on the fly. Is it possible to set it up so that the shutter speed can be adjusted using the command dial on the back of the camera?
I know that if I select the shutter dial to 'T' it will allow me to go between 2 - 30 seconds but that's no good for every day shooting.
From what I can gather this is possible on other Fuji X series cameras like the X-T1 and X-T10, so I'm hoping that this also translates to the X-Pro 1 and I'm just being thick!?
