The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

A few shots of Lani Diaz in London at the weekend.
Shot with an X-T5 and 33mm f/1.4

It's been a while since I've been out shooting with Models up town.
This was in and about Coal Drop Yard.

Off to the Highlands next week and in addition to taking all my Nikon gear, I’m thinking of throwing the little X-Pro1 in the bag as well as I love using it.

Thinking about picking up an additional lens for the trip to my 35mm f2, trying to choose between a 14mm f2.8, an 18-55 or an 18mm f2. Obviously I have the 18-55 covered with the Nikon gear, thinking I’d like to try the 14mm as I’ve never owned one and a wide angle prime would be great fun particularly in Scotland.

Anyone have thoughts on which they’d choose in my boat?

I`ve had the 14mm, and it`s a lovely little lens.

Last year. I did Scotland with a MFT and 12-45, don’t think I changed it in the whole week

Not sure how much the 14mm F2 is, but the Viltrox 13mm F/1.4 is a great lens.
 
Went for a quick walk while my car was in for an MOT. I love spending time in the woods, I just find it so hard to photograph. It's something I intend to work on.

I know the rough idea of what I want to achieve - Deep shadows and soft directional light, almost "Renaissance" style lighting. I can see glimpses of it here, it's just not a particularly strong scene. Still, it's a damn sight better than any other woodland stuff I've done so far. A step in the right direction!

A quick autumnal shot from Wales. This has had to be cropped square as unfortunately, unbeknown to me, my 50-140 has a bit of a problem in that whilst the centre is sharp the rest is badly out of focus :( I should have tested more thoroughly when I first got it (second hand as a private sale) and definitely before I took it away on a week to Wales. Said lens is now booked in with Fuji so I’ll get to experience the well regarded Fuji service and repair process.

A few motorsport photos over the last couple of pages so thought I'd share some I took at the Silverstone GP a few months ago.

A bit late to the party but visited Silverstone about a month ago to attend the British GP weekend, here's some of my favourites. Was using my Fuji X-T5, most of the shots were taken with the 70-300mm lens with a few with the 35mm F2.

Not here yet. Not really interested as it has no EVF.
The XE5 will be more interesting when it comes but will it be 26MP or 40MP is the question. Also will it warrant me getting rid of my XE4, probably not.

In my dreams the XE5 will be 40MP + IBIS and then I might be tempted

Well a video came out yesterday saying their ‘trusted source’ had leaked the specs to them.
40MP
5 axis stabilisation
200+ focus points
Improved auto focus

Let’s hope it is right

If it’s below the xt50 prices I would be surprised

I agree, long way off the £799 X-E2 when introduced - Fuji seem to be generally shifting prices up - it’s a shame when you don’t seem to get that much more for your money.

IMO most don’t need the resolution and most don’t need IBIS though IBIS has its place with longer focal length lenses - but they are not the usual attire for the X-E series cameras.

I would expect a UK price of £1100.

I’ll raise that by at least £100 - all of 40MP IBIS offerings have attracted a premium

I’m just hoping they up the build quality, that’s not to say they are badly made but they don’t feel as premium as they used to - IMO it went downhill at the same time as the new battery was introduced, an X-T1/2/3 feels so much nicer than an X-T4/5, similarly with the other ranges
 
One from a go at @Garry Edwards lighting challenge (you should try them). this time was "chiaroscuro lighting". So the only thing I could think of, was one of my Storm troopers ;)

Anyway, here`s the edited version. T5 35mm
