    The Official Fuji X10/X20/X30/XF1/XQ1 Thread

    Filled in an online valuation on MPB for my well-used X20, as it has a few scratches on the body, £191, Wonder if I'd get more via eBay / classifieds? As i've got charger, a couple of batteries, sd card and a lowepro case.

    The Official Fuji X10/X20/X30/XF1/XQ1 Thread

    Found my old X20 in a drawer, not used it for ages. Looked on MPB, nearly fell off my chair at the prices. https://www.mpb.com/en-uk/product/fujifilm-x20 What's caused this? An uprising in point and shoot?

    Notice Some big changes coming to TP

    Can only echo the thoughts of others. Can't believe I've been here over 10 years. The forum really helped me improve my photography when I started. Whilst I don't take as many photos as I used to, TP is still my goto place when I need to know something, or even just show off an occasional nice...

    Downsize from Nikon D7100, but to what?

    Sat on the armchair this afternoon I was thinking about my post...... what an idiot eh? I asked how you could take Nikon's 3rd best ever crop sensor dSLR, take all the best bits of it and shrink it into a smaller package. Then, I asked for a couple of stops better IQ. I bet most people wonder...

    I'd miss the extra dial of the D7100. :(

    Can't really afford to keep both, would have be one or the other.

    Downsize from Nikon D7100, but to what?

    Putting this out there for some thoughts from the collection wisdom. :) I was using my D7100 yesterday at my little girls birthday party and realised its feeling quite unwieldy.(no sheet Sherlock) Granted, I had the big Sigma 18-35 1.8 ART on there and SB-700 flash, but all the same, its a big...

    Nikon Lens for school plays? or DX > FX?

    Hi Toby, Thanks for the reply, but I beg to differ slightly on the requirement for needing telephoto. I will admit, i'm not using my gear each and every week, but when I do use it I want the right lens for the job. Through the summer at my kids dancing shows, shooting outdoors, I love using...

    Nikon Lens for school plays? or DX > FX?

    Over the past couple of years the little ones have been in school plays. You know the score, low light, but kids moving, so terrible shooting conditions. Last year I used my old D7000, this year the D7100 and from the front row (get there early) i've been using my Tamron 17-50 and shooting...

    The Official Fuji X10/X20/X30/XF1/XQ1 Thread

    I briefly owned a RX100 mk1 before getting hold of my X20. Whilst the RX100 is smaller, has a 1" sensor, better high ISO and is more convenient for dropping in a pocket i've found the X20 to be the better camera. If you like fiddling with controls, the X20/X30 is the way to go with its rear...

    The Official Fuji X10/X20/X30/XF1/XQ1 Thread

    Got my X20 in a Lowepro Dashpoint 20 small case that sits on my hip on my belt. Easy access and can just about cram a spare battery in there too. The X20 only just fits in, so I doubt you'd get the X30 in with it being slightly larger?
