Waitwaitwait.  Why exactly is this new forum being launched?

 

You guys already know about http://www.fujix-forum.com/ right?  The site that's been around for over 3 years and has over 43,000 members?

 

Isn't this new site going to further splinter the user base? (who already has to contend with dpreview's forums, the original Fuji X forum, plus a few other oddballs like http://www.fujixseries.com/, http://www.fujixspot.com/forums/, and subforums on sites like ephotozine and digitalcamerareview.com)

 

Rather than everyone trying to be "the" official forum, why not try to coalesce all that energy and inspiration into one place?

We are living in a free world - so:

Why not?

 

In my experience competition is a good thing.

 

I'm already running several forums - both German and International

Sometimes I'm the gorilla in the cage (right term in English), sometimes I'm the runner-up - but always with strong competitors.

 

Some of them I like and cooperate with them in various fields, some - uhm - not.

All of them help me to stay alert and to improve the service.

 

Difficult to make up good comparisons - but I don't want to live in a world Microsoft only (or Linux or Mac).

 

 

OK?

Can we break down the Rumor topic into sub-topics? Right now, it probably isn't an issue. But when there are thousands of posts, it would be easier to find the rumors/news that you want through sub-topics. Such as Camera, Firmware, Lens, etc.

 

Can we also separate the deals from the rumors.

 

Thanks! Other than that, great start.

On the subject, why does only the Street Photography section have 'Photography' in the title? ;)

 

This is because Street is the thread with the most controversial and mostly off-topic discussions. So it's a good idea to remind everyone that the thread is dedicated to photography but not to trollism.

Hi all

 

I first visited the fuji x forum starting at feedly where I got the news on fuji rumors. When I enter the forum like this I see a much more convenient user interface (font is bigger, more space, better to read...). What's the difference to the standard webbrowser user interface? I am using an iPhone 6.

Cool... Guessing this is new.  Own the X100T (formerly had the S) and added an X-T1 this year due to an nagging injury that makes lugging a dslr and 70-200 painful.  No the X system does not replace that, but it is a great system for out and about shooting.  I'll probably share more after hockey season as I watch all the Stanley Cup finals games regardless of who is playing.  Cheers!

I know you could say that its already covered in 'Street Photography' and I understand that you don't want to create an endless list of photography types, but would you consider adding 'Urban Photography' to the list? I see urban photography as including the urban environment in a broader sense that street photography including the built environment, urban infrastructure, architecture and more. However, if you would rather not I will post away in the 'Miscellaneous' section.

Well the arrival of this new site apparently triggered the other fujix-forum to change their banner to help avoid confusion:

Somehow I figured something like this would happen...

I have spend some "Likes" yesterday and tried to do so today again. This is the message I got: "You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day"!

 

How much is allowed per day and would it be possible to raise the limit little bit? Seams to be set to a very restrictive value at the moment ;)

Blue Jays are tricky to get good photos like you have, they tend to fly away as soon as the lens cap comes off 😀.

      I own the Fuji X-T1 and X-H1. I own several Fuji lenses but I tend to use 3rd party vintage manual glass which I find quite enjoyable to use. I'm testing a photo here taken from my Flickr account that showcases the Tokina 100-300mm Zoom lens with 1.4 extender.

      CANNOT BACKUP OR RESTORE X-T4 SETTINGS WITH FUJI X ACQUIRE

      By Astigmatism · Posted

      Forgot to mention another thing. Mine does not work if I plug the USB cord into a USB hub. It only works if I plug the cord into one of the USB ports on my computer itself (an iMac). This surprises me because I think there's a hub built into the computer itself, which is how the computer has multiple USB ports in the first place. I think it was somebody here that suggested I try that -- sorry I don't remember who!

      xPro1 can't change aperture with fujinon 27mm

      By Fujiron · Posted

      On another forum someone suggested spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the wheel but the Fuji tech said that could risk frying the rest of the cameras electrical so I haven't tried that.

      Potential bug in X100VI - C mode, screen going very dark

      By sfainbraun · Posted

      I have an x100VI with 1.01 firmware - did a reset already and didnt solve issue I am about to describe. Can you all see if your camera does this: Switch to C mode, step down to f16 and then press shutter half way. Does your screen go dark? I have tried playing will all settings (have had the following so quite familiar with the menus: x100, x100f, XT-2, X-Pro 2, XT-3) , only happens in C mode. If you find this can you report to Fuji @ digitalinfo@fujifilm.com. They told me they had not seen this before and that it was normal behavior because the shutter is closing, but the shutter closes in S mode as well.
