I was considering one when I bought the x-e5, Had a hold but found it too small. However I think it would be great once you adjust to it and get used to the lack of evf. Btw I’ve returned the x-e5 for xt50 with 16-50mm. The rangefinder style didnt suit me. My preference would be traditional dslr...

Thanks. Will check him out.

Well I’ve just gone and purchased my first Fujifilm camera. X-e5 in silver with 23mm kit lens. Any recommendations as to where to look for tips on setting it up, etc appreciated. Previous cameras were Pentax dslr and current Sony A7c (which I need to move on). Thanks in advance Mand

Just noticed this thread. My new favs are Dalmore, Glenfarclas and Penderyn. My taste seemed to have changed over the last year, less peat, smoke, seaweed now liking more sweet after tastes. Also now drinking a dram with just one drop of water is my norm.

You do realise F22 is mininum aperture not max, and is something that you will not really use?

Hi Lynda I would recommend Sunderland eye hospital. Other than that there is Optimax and Optical express in Newcastle, as Ultralaze have been bought by Optimax. You may be better of having lens replacement rather than laser. Mand

My wife on the phone! She's always on the phone. Must invest in some headphones. Before she came home = Dead kennedys on vinyl.

If it is like Audi's haldex viscous coupling then the special oil would need changing at around 40k mles. Maybe the oil has gone off, lost viscosity so won't transfer drive anymore??? Mand

My fave is Martell vsop, seems quite smooth and on the sweeter side.

I'm just getting used to shooting in raw then using Elements 9 with the camera raw plug in, before converting to jpeg for my Pentax K5. Who decided on the preset for each type of camera - do the manufacturers pass info to Adobe or does Adobe have a bit of play around to decide which settings...
