XS10 and manual lenses
Greybeard and 2 others reacted to thelostkiwi for a topic
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).3 points -
I had no problem finding a spot at the beach this afternoon. Was not crowded at all. GFX100 RF.

No - I don’t think so - it means you can take pictures if you remove the lens completely - but I’m not sure that is a problem2 points

Introduce Yourself
Astigmatism and one other reacted to Cronin for a topic
Hello All, I am returning to photography after a decades-long hiatus that was prompted by my loss of access to a darkroom. Digital rendered that excuse moot, so I now return with a recently purchased XT5. I am from the Hudson River Valley in New York where I have spent the past five decades engaged in environmental work, mostly on the Hudson. I teach at Pace University where I direct the Gale Epstein Center for Technology, Policy and the Environment. My project ahead is documenting the unseen Hudson, a combination of the obscure, under-appreciated, and invisible - a street-style approach to people, places and things that make the river what it is. There will be little landscape, if any. The "Mighty Hudson" is well-documented. If nothing else, it will be a mission-driven project to bring me back to photography while learning my camera. I look forward to everything this amazing site can teach me. Cronin2 points -

Hi all, First post here. A few pics from a recent trip to Cornwall in the UK. Any feedback or ideas on how these could have been improved (in camera and editing) would be amazing.

Spots on my every images
thelostkiwi and one other reacted to Greybeard for a topic
If the spots are in the same place every time then its likely a dirty sensor - you can buy a sensor cleaning kit and do it yourself or take it in to get cleaned professionally.2 points -

Fuji X-T5: Full Performance with Classic Handling
thelostkiwi and one other reacted to Blue Zurich for a topic
After 40 years with mostly Canon, both film and digital, a brief summer romance with Oly and a background with Nikon film, I cannot state how pleased I am with transitioning to Fuji and the X-T5. I thought I would never leave full frame but here I am and with a widening array of versatile primes at my reach I have no constraints and the files are very manageable. Muscle memory from EOS and dial/button placement was a thing in the beginning but now after a couple months it's been reset. Nothing but enjoyment and great images.2 points -

The short answer is no but if X Raw Studio noise reduction doesn’t give you the results you like why not process them with another raw processor? You could then apply noise reduction together with whatever other processing you want to do.1 point

In the darkest of days when its cold and wet the British will still sit outside to drink their tea and coffee. Fuji X-E2 with a terrible Astrahori 18mm f/8 manual focus lens (that I no longer have). The lens was fun while is lasted I guess.© Alastair Bell. All rights reserved.

It should be stated on the box if a power supply is included. It might differ from region to region. Maybe you should contact Amazon with your concerns.1 point

Sinis - Sardegna
jerryy reacted to Giampaolo Masserano for a gallery image
From the album: Photos
Unfortunately, this beach (like many others in the Sinis region) is experiencing a dramatic situation: a massive and partly inexplicable mosquito invasion, which is impacting not only the quality of life of locals but also severely impacting tourism. Spending even a few minutes on one of these beaches means being attacked by hundreds of hungry insects (and, in my opinion, larger than common mosquitoes). Besides the inconvenience of constantly having to swat them away, there is a real health risk because some of them can carry "Western Nile Fever," a disease that in some cases (fortunately very rare) can have serious consequences for the elderly or immunocompromised. One of the likely triggers of this phenomenon is the presence, after a strong storm in recent months, of tons of Posidonia oceanica that have settled on the shoreline and are difficult to remove. On still-warm autumn days, this damp, rotting carpet is the ideal environment for the proliferation of insects. My visit took place from December 12th to 15th, and given the time of year, I didn't expect to encounter a similar situation (which I hadn't encountered in the previous two years). I assure you, taking some photos was very difficult. The municipalities of Oristano and Cabras have implemented extensive disinfestation operations, which appear to have been successful: in Cabras (despite being surrounded by lagoons), mosquitoes are virtually non-existent, while their presence is massive on the beaches. Anyone wishing to delve deeper into the topic or who has understandable doubts about what I've written should consult the local press and TV reports.1 point -

Wondering (wandering) around in the forests, one comes across many critters; deer, squirrels, birds, foxes, bobcats, trolls, twigs... all sorts of critters. But Remember The Tin Man.
