I will go to Sydney and Cairns for about 10 days in the end of June.

 

I have 18-55, 14/2.8 and 35/2 lens.

 

I'd like to take 2 of them and I think the 14/2.8 must be taken.

 

Any suggestion for the remaining one? zoom 18-55 or prime 35?

 

Or any other opinions?

For Australia a lens with a bag ( to put a kangaroo in ) .

For Austria a lens with with good profile to climb the Alps.

For America a 66 mm lens to shoot the Route.

For Germany a super wide angle lens, for everything is bigger there,

For Africa no chrome body.

 

Are you kidding? Is this a serious question ? Do you know what to do with a camera ? Do you know why they invented the Zoom ?

Stay at home and spend your money to buy a book on photography an go for a photo-school.

 

Which bastard sold you the extra 14 and 35 mm ?  Because of the wider aperture and the DOF ? Wider aperture .... and what about rising the ISO ?Rubbish. Waist of money !

The 18 - 55 mm is the must. Extra batteries. An UV filter. Enjoy your photo-days.

As you may have taken a hint from above, there is nothing geographically specific about any lens. On my last trip (Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks) I carried everything from a fisheye, an 114° 14mm full-frame lens to an 83× zoom with a maximum field of view equal to a 2000mm lens. All were used to the max. My X-Pro1 had the 8mm Samyang fisheye, 14mm, 18mm, 35mm and 60mm. Whatever you have, will be useful.

      Hello, If you look in the top right-hand corner of each posting, there should be three dots in a row, like this —>  …  <—, click on them and after a moment or twelve, a small menu should drop down from the dots, the last entry in the menu is ‘Edit’. Choose that and after a moment or three you should be in edit mode for that entry. Note: Only you can edit your entries.

      Jerry I found out it's a Cherry Blossom but I can't figure out how to edit it.

      What is most ironic about this is that there must be many of us here that would be interested in significant ads about the products we're discussing. I would be. I normally hate ads, but relevant ones here would actually be somewhat welcome. What are the recent new Fuji product announcements? Is anybody offering a sale? How about 3rd party products? I mean, I actually want to spend money, more or less.

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

      By Astigmatism · Posted

      I don't think I have your answer, but it's worth trying. It's been a few days, are you still struggling with this? I've used Acquire (on an iMac) and an X-T4 (also an X-T5 and an X-T30 ii) and it worked, at least as far as backing up. No error messages, and a computer file with stuff in it. I understand you get an error message when you attempt to restore the camera from a backup, but, does it look to you like the backup phase is working? I mean, do you get a saved file and no error messages? Do you have any other Fuji cameras, and does it work for them? I have had problems getting Acquire to detect the camera. I did all manner of playing around with starting the software, plugging in the camera, and powering the camera on, in various orders (including what the instructions say). I always got it to work eventually, but it took lots of playing some times. Lately it fires right up. Somebody here commented on this difficulty and the security obstacles in the computer. Are you getting a connection easily, or after trying things, or not at all? Does Acquire show your camera model and the few settings it displays correctly?
