Fuji-X Sport: Pro Cycling

Hi

A few pics from a pro-cycling competition in Quebec City,  it was a criterium, a 70 km race on a 2 km urban track for a total of 35 laps, these type of races are great since you get lots of opportunities for some good shots. 

It was the fifth stage of the Tour de Beauce, here is what Wikipedia says about the event: "Tour de Beauce is a men's elite professional road bicycle race multi-day event held each June in the Beauce region of Québec, Canada since 1986. Tour de Beauce is a Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI)-rated 2.2 continental circuit stage race on the UCI America Tour."

 

Shot with a X-T1 + XF50-140 + XF1.4TC, most of the time @196mm f4

AFC with Zone tracking (3x3 grid, central points), drive on CH (8 fps)
Raw, PP in LR 6.6 and the Nik Collection....

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.

    • 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!
    • 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.
    • 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.
