Here are some headshots I've taken, all with the X-T1 and 35 1.4. I really like the 50mm equiv. for headshots. I find there's not too much perspective distortion on most faces, and it feels more dramatic and personal to me.

Here's another headshot, with the x100t - so 35mm equivalent.

New here, but thought I'd throw in a couple of my own studio headshots. All X-T1 with either 56mm or 50-140mm.

 

These two were commercial jobs for an actress and a realtor:

I enjoy taking headshot as a memory when I travel. For this purpose I travel light with the FUJI 60mm attached to my XE-1 as secondary camera for portraits. Here are some headshots I took in Cambodia and Thailand. I'm a backpacker that enjoys taking photographs, I'll be more than happy to hear your comments in order to improve.

I was covering a childrens event at church yesterday. All taken with the X-T1 and 35mm. I just love this lens!

An opportunity shot.  Replaced the BG because it was too busy and I liked the character in his face enough to think it worth while.

XT-1 18-55mm.

I'm enjoying all these creative portraits! Certainly puts to rest, at least from my viewpoint, that the Fuji sensor isn't a good choice for portraits due to creating a "plastic skin look" or other comments on how faces look. Don't have my X-T10 yet but looking forward to it.

Shorter focal length lenses provide an intimacy that longer focal lengths deny. For formal portraits, certainly the longer lenses are in order since formality is the antitheses of intimacy. The widest of lenses are great for environmental portraits, and as long as the subject is in the central area, distortion is minimal. A shift lens on an adapter offers the ability to move the subject out of the central area if following the suggestion of thirds composition. With people, short lenses do present a challenge, but have the potential to create very powerful relationships between subject and viewer.

I had that plastic skin look in the beginning, but I found that for studio use, Classic Chrome gives the best skin tones, onto which you can also add your own colouring afterwards, if required. Sharpening differently helps a lot too, I tend to go with amount 25, radius 0.7, detail 60-80, masking 0. This works fine for me and greatly improves how my images look.

      XS10 and manual lenses

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      All three of my bodies (X-E2, X-T4, GFX100S II) have shoot without lenses enabled and they have all had it set since I bought them.  No harm in it at all. Just remember to set the focal length when you fit a manual lens with no electronics otherwise the IBIS (if you have it) goes nuts. I regularly use vintage film lenses from Minolta, Zeiss, Mamiya, Rollei and others on my X mounts along with more modern manual focus stuff from TTArtisans. I also use Nikon AF-S lenses with a Fringer so the world is your oyster! Vintage lenses can be an absolute bargain too - For example the Zeiss 135 f/35 in M42 is as cheap as chips and very sharp as is the excellent Minolta 35-70 Macro (which is also rebadged Leica).

      Infrared Photography on X-E2 665nm

      By Neil Rosenberg · Posted

      I'm not exaggerating when I say that I have searched with great vigor (and at great expense) for a way to capture IR images with a Fujifilm camera for which I didn't have to use major amounts of sharpening to bring out the best. Zooms, primes, Fuji, Tamron, Viltrox, Sigma, Zeiss ... probably 20 lenses all told. Plus multiple IR converted Fuji cameras, X-T1, X-T3, X-T5. I even tried different ways of filtering IR, such as using the Kolari clip-ins and lens-mounted front filters. I was ready to give up until I almost accidentally tried one of the cheapest lenses out there -- the little TTArtisan 27mm F2.8. No hotspots that I could see, and best of all ABSOLUTELY SUPERB SHARPNESS across the entire frame. It's this attribute that I search for, and until now, never achieved. In my prior attempts, I listened to the advice from the "pundits", picking up a copy of the venerable Fuji 14mm F2.8, the Zeiss Touitt 12mm F2.8, Fuji 23 and 35mm F2.0, even the very similar 7Artisans 27mm F2.8, and none of them come even close to the TTArtisan for edge sharpness in infrared. Incidentally, I'm using a Kolari 720nm clip-in filter. Sure the TT has its issues -- vignetting at 2.8, tendency to flare with sunlight nearby, but all in all, this lens is glued to my X-T5 for now. This image was taken hand-held with this lens -- completely unedited!

      Screen is flipped with fan001

      By Tschortschli · Posted

      Hy there When Im using the fan001 on the XH2s and I flip the LCD Screen vertically by 180 degrees then the image flips vertically, what is good but it also flips horizontally. The clean feed on HDMI is not flipping horizontally but its also flipping if the HDMI output info display is on. When I unmount the fan then the image flips only vertically. My firmware is updated to the latest version. Any ideas if there is a fix for that?
