    The Official Fuji X Pro 1 Thread

    I could resist no longer and now have my first legacy lens for the XPro and X-M1. From the nice people at Ffordes comes a new old stock Rollei 50mm f1.8 HFT Plannar by Zeiss. Here are some quick pics taken as soon as it arrived. Misty by trickletreat, on Flickr Misty by trickletreat, on...

    Thanks Bill. I think it's a great lens and if I buy a D750 then it will be the first lens I buy. Light and easy on the neck strap!

    Nikon D750 Users & Technical Advice Thread

    Likewise, clocked your forum name and thought it must be you! Yes really miss 'the hooligan'. My son is having a shell up resto done at the moment, a clubman, but fitted with a tuned Vauxhall engine! It will take about six months. Back on topic, great camera choice, have tried one myself, but...

    Set up for dog and horse photography

    Thanks both for the replies. I am trying to keep the overall weight down so may have to go for the f4. Great help Sue re the 7D and 7D2, I have been leaning towards the 7D2 but the cost of 7D would allow for more lenses! The only problem is I have a full frame itch and would like to know how the...

    Set up for dog and horse photography

    Your help and advice would be appreciated. From my flickr link you will see that I photograph many varied subjects. Technically the most demanding for me is photographing dogs in action [and my daughter sometimes!] In recent years I used a K5 and old 70-200 f2.8 Sigma, I found that I would...

    Getting over self confidence

    Hi Damien, I recently took part in a ten strangers project and posted results on a forum. I was asked by the members and admin to explain how I approached people. I went over my photographs starting with my use of a dslr and realised that there was a bit of a story, so I wrote a short article...

    So what was your first slr or dslr?

    Blood, sweat and tears shifting sacks of potatoes as a young teenager earned me enough money to buy the Ricoh XR1 with 50mm 1.7. I couldn't stretch to the Olympus or Pentax offerings. It was a great and simple camera, but was eventually sold to fund booze [and some food] when I left home to...

    Fuji x100

    I think you might check here... http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1020&thread=40754091 The solution appears to be to use round strap rings instead of the triangular ones. There is also a thread on X100 forum. Nigel
