    Who has a DSLR & a Mirrorless System?

    Still have my old 40D body and a Tamron 10-24mm but had an X100 for the last few years and now just ordered the X-Pro 1. I've taken the 40D out maybe once or twice. Each time I've been utterly sick of lumping around the extra weight.

    The Official Fuji X Pro 1 Thread

    Wasn't exactly expensive. Just a cheap job from amazon. Is the hot shoe different between the two cameras then?

    The Official Fuji X Pro 1 Thread

    I have a thumb grip and a soft release on my X100, they're transferrable on to the X-Pro right?

    Fuji x100

    Hmm, just shelled out for an X-Pro1 but seriously considering selling all the add ons I have and keeping the X100 as a second camera. Especially since some of my favourite shots of the past two years have been with this camera. The fill flash is just perfection.

    Do You Need To Have An Emotional Connection With A Picture For It To Be Good?

    Not necessarily. But I do find that the pictures I share on Flickr don't receive the same view/favs as I might expect. There are some on there that I absolutely adore because they are either linked with a person/place/event that is special to me. Just looking at them brings back the memories of...

    The Official Fuji X Pro 1 Thread

    Welp, couldn't help myself! Just bought a reconditioned X-Pro 1 with an 18mm and 35mm lenses. Just have to decide whether to keep my X100 or not! Really looking forward to unboxing and learning a new camera

    Best full frame equivalent of Tamron 10-24mm?

    Oh really? I didn't think it would be able to work on the 5D. Well that's good news until the pennies build up in the camera fund again.

    Best full frame equivalent of Tamron 10-24mm?

    Thinking about the jump up to a 5D Mark II from my 40D. I use my UWA Tamron lens quite a lot, but almost all of the time at the 10mm end rather than anything else. What's the best equivalent lens I could replace this with? It's mostly tripod work so don't need a massively low F-stop lens. The...

    Life on Mars - what are the implications for religion?

    An announcement like this will never dissuade believers from their beliefs. When you don't need evidence to back up your theory, and believe in something that can never be disproven in the first place, a simple scientific discovery is never going to change your mind anyway. I mean you only...

    the power of Nude - Japanese style

    Perhaps I'm interpreting the method differently from you. I took it to be that the images were formed form 10,000 images of the same model taken as they moved in a dance step/form. So using a high speed camera to take those ten thousands photos and then merging them to create his shots.

    Almost holiday time!

    Used my 40D + all the kit on my honeymoon because I knew I would be stationed in a few key places or be getting organised transport elsewhere. Bought a Fujifilm X100 for Toronto because I knew I would be walking a lot and didn't want to carry a massive kit bag with me. Worked out perfectly for me.

    Hello from Scotland

    Hello everyone, This is just a quick introduction from myself. Hoping to find some great photos, discussions and inspiration here on the forum. I'm currently living in Fife, just over the water from Dundee. I shoot with a Canon 40D and a Fujifilm X100. I take photos of just about anything...
