The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

No battery grip for the X-T10 but there are a few add on grips available now which make it a bit more comfortable with bigger lenses or just for bigger hands.

Yeah that's what I was looking at, thanks for the info. And the images look great!
Finally does anyone know anything about the 50-140, I have a 70-200 so this would be a great addition. Oooo I do love the Fuji system!

Not used one but held one. Seems a bit on the heavy side to me. Might be unbalanced with the X-T10.

Its a big lens, I found with the XT1 that it worked best with the grip attached, stellar image quality though.

I've recently got the XF50-140mm glass, not used it much due to current pathetic depressing weather, but I like the versatility and constant F2.8 throughout the zoom range.
A lot of people slate it for its weight, it's like all quality camera lenses are gonna be weighty alright, it's not that bad, just get used to it or don't buy it.

@brave from e38?

If you've got a Fuji you need the 56mm, oh wait there's one in the classified section ;)

Take a star for persistence. Make it a gold star:)

However he might prefer a 60mm which would be cheaper, which could be available from a certain source as being available to fund the purchase of a 23mm.

The 60mm is appealingly cheap(did I just make a word up?) anyone used it? Is it any good?

Well I'm not going to get into a battle with Tim. Think he's first in line.

Yes I have a 60mm.. Bought for macro work but as I can't bend over any more I'm having a rethink. Top quality images and with an effective 90mm focal length useful for work other than close ups.
I've offered it in the classifieds to a couple of guys, but there is no box. I didn't know this but picture quality exponentially decreases the further a lens gets from the attic where the box is stored. Have a search you'll see the posts.

£485 posted think was the last price I put up, it's an awesome lens. In the FS thread there's some shots taken with it

Cheers dude. I've only just bought into it so I need to look into what best suits my needs, and sell all my canon stuff

No battle here, I'll buy whatever I think is best for my needs and wallet, thanks buddy
 
Is an X-A2 owner welcome here?! The other Fuji threads are pretty much dead, and there is a lot of crossover (i.e. all the glass) that makes this thread a far more useful place to hang out. I'm using an X-A2 in the quiet months before picking up another X-T1/X-T10 in the Spring ready for my busy season.

Excellent camera aside from lack of viewfinder (but tilting LCD is more useful to me over an X-E2 at the moment), I've no idea where the AF processor sits in the Fuji hierarchy but it's - surprisingly - closer to the X-T1/10 than the older models. Feels a little odd using a 23 and 56 on it, though, to say the least.
 
Two very nice images David, and well suited to B&W. Really like the water power effect in the second shot and the gritty styled PP work.(y)

Fuji's have a boomerang effect, welcome back, just waiting for @minnnt to get bored of Nikon's having tried every available lens!

Finally made it into Leyland Motors disused Test Track. Wonder what has been going on in here?
There were some interesting looking phone numbers on the opposite wall. I took a shot of them - just for record purposes!

George, they were offering various types of "personal" service. All ages, genders and persuasions were catered for. SWMBO is out tomorrow night so I might try one:help:

We will expect a full write up in the review section!
 
Today I finally received the last bits of my big stopper kit. I now have 10 & 5 stop filters plus step up rings to allow me to use them on my three main lenses.
Now to find some moving water.

Hadn't realised I'd been around this thread that long to be honest!

I'm waiting for the X-Pro2 release so I can grab one of the many X-T1s that go up for sale :)
 
I'm also awaiting X-Pro2 details from Fuji to see what direction I'm heading (??), I've been thinking recently about returning to Nikon D800 again after uploading a few D800 files here recently, was amazed with the quality/fat & juicy file sizes compared with my expanding X system.

Not going to rush into any crazy/mad decisions right now, I've a lot more homework to do on it.
