So that's that then, I'm Fujiless once more. The camera is being collected tomorrow. :(

Shout out to WEX for their excellent handling of the matter. (y)

I totally assum you were but you were moving the lever on the front to switch between OVF and EVF yeah?

Bit of a shame as it seems you got a decent deal and were enjoying it, where to next?

Don't know, I got the F for £500 less than the V but it was the last one WEX had in stock, hence the price.

Yep. It now doesn't even have the superimposed frame in the OVF, it's as if it's switched off (it wasn't)

I was in Dorothea yesterday. Nearly a disaster, as I got there and found the SD card was still stuck in the computer at home, not in the camera. Fortunately there was a 2gb card in the van, as it happened. Shooting in raw made you make each shot count! Bit like I remember film.

That is an excellent lesson for most, leave a card in the car. Nice pics to!

Thanks.
I ended up leaving well alone, anything I tried messed it up!
Was about half an hour after the first shot and light had got more golden, and the doomy grey sky behind was a bonus. I'd have gone back for another crack at the first view, but had run out of space on the SD card.

Was just kidding about the V. You could take on your sisters T if you can't find anything else? Hopefully you get something sorted and at least Wex is doing a grand job of taking care of things.

Well, I, erm.............I'm such an idiot! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I've just realised what the problem was and it wasn't the camera. It turns out that the Lensmate folding thumbrest is NOT suitable for the X100F as it presses the View Mode button! :rolleyes:

I've just had to send an apologetic email to WEX to ask them to cancel tomorrow's collection.

Remember folks, the customer definitely isn't always right! :ROFLMAO:

Thats brilliant. Happens to the best of us Marc. PICNIC works well in this situation - 'Problem In Chair, Not In Camera' ;)

At least you don't have to worry about sourcing another camera etc.
 
A view down a wild and windy Wastwater towards a lit by the morning sun Yewbarrow. Great Gable is hiding in the fog and clouds to the right. These two are next on my list when we go back. We got 80% of the way up Great Gable when our dog sat herself down and refused to go any further. She did walk up and down Scafell Pike the day before so I’ll let her off this once. :)

Very nice landscape style Fujigraph Jason, well composed with nice receding plains and well suited to the mono presentation.

Really liking the second one. Lovely colours and I like the contrasts between the two sides of the frame.(y)

Cheers mate, my wife said the exact same thing about the calm right side versus the choppy left side

No it doesn't, I just assumed that because it seemed to resolve itself when I removed it. It now seems likely that it was just my fat fingers!

Let's just say that I'm having a very bad day and I'm thinking about deleting my posts and asking you all to shred yourselves! :wacky:

@Cagey75 two nice shots posted with the Viltrox 85mm Keith, but that second one is a fab monochrome conversion. Love the contrast and tones in it.

Cheers,

Simon.

Cheers SImon, appreciate that. I do love a nice B&W, I mostly convert to B&W rather than using a preset, so I can conttrol all colours with luminence
