30mm is a fair bit different, but it depends on how you want to use it, I don't think anything bigger than an X100 will fit in my coat pocket etc. The AF performance isn't that bad - I mostly use my X100V to take photos of my boys:

No, the X-H2S is good, but the X100V is a different type of camera.

That’s great to know. That photo is excellent and similar to what I’m taking atm.

Decisions decisions.

I hope they don't announce an X-T6, I've barely got 16k click out of my 5 so far !

I know they probably won't announce an X-E5 but if they did, packaged with the 27mm WR lens, and they priced it at £949 like when the X-E4 was released? I would probably wet myself with glee. 40MP sensor with exchangeable lenses in that form factor would be very cool. Maybe they'd bring the MCS and rear dial back too! :love:

lol I was going to almost say the same, x-e5 with 100vi internals would do it for me

I'm finding that that some (mainly the older 35 f1.4) is not a good match for the 40mp camera. The 3 zooms I have seem to be fine, 10-24 f4, 50-140 f2.8 & 100-400.

Congratulations!

13 years in and I've still never had an explore. :(

Thanks.

If I am honest I am not sure why things get picked for explore - I've had 3 or 4 but there doesn't seem to be any logic to it and the ones that were picked haven't been anything amazing compared to some of the photos on Flickr.

Did you get it yet? I need a second battery for my X-H2S, and found this, and thought it might be too good to be true - it sounds like it might be.

I am also after an L bracket. It seems like the options are Small Rig or a no name one from eBay/Amazon. Has anyone bought a no-name one that is good?

Arrived after a couple of days.

X-T5 I assume? Not a good match in what way? Chances are my eye is not discerning enough to tell…
 
All the images I have taken with the 35 on the T5 look like they have missed focus, put it back on the T3 and it's fine. Seems a bit strange, but there you go...

I am finding the 16-55 and Viltrox 27 1.2 very sharp as well as the 35. The Original 56 1.2 I find not so consistent on the new sensors.
 
My 35 seems ok in the T5. But a lot is down to what you're shooting I guess.

Have you done a clinical test on tripod etc?
 
Trial packing the new bag for my trip next week. This thing can fit a LOT!

(There is still space on top of the camera to fit a bottom of 500ml of water).

So, it's a bum bag, then...? ;) :exit:

Sling! :runaway:

it's 3.5L on paper but I feel like this can fit more than my PD 10L Sling. It has a slot for everything in this bag pretty much. The only thing I can't fit into this is my iPad Air.

On a regular day to day I won't take the Instax out but the fact that it can fit it side by side with the X100 is brilliant.

Not posted much recently as various commitments have taken up time.
This is one of the models I’ve been making for something.
The next stage is using these pictures for screen printing.
I think this process has changed my photography, or rather what I want to use picture taking for.
still trying to work it out fully.

T3 - 16/1.4

The walkway to the sea front at Ventnor has been closed for a while for renovation work. Looking quite curvy and clean now it's finished. Still steep on way back up though :)

Very nice landscape style capture Nick, and nicely presented in mono.

Do we think Fuji will ever release a successor to the X-T30ii?

I'm sure I read rumours of an X-T40 at one point but can't remember where now.

I currently have an X-T20, I'm not actually looking to upgrade at the moment but the time will come and I do enjoy the small form of the X-T20, centre view finder etc...

I also have an X-T100 that I enjoy using but it looks like Fuji have killed off the cheaper bayer line of cameras now so I'll have to look after it!

Is an X-T50 on the way?

Missed out on the Fujifilm X100VI? New leak suggests the next best thing could land soon

An X-T50 launch is looking increasingly likely

Thanks George, the old island map is still found from many tourist items up to big publications :)
