Hi everyone. Just bought my retirement gift to myself - an XT-5 with 16-50 and 70-300 lenses and cant wait to get started. Used to be a keen photographer before life got in the way and have continued, albeit with phone, but despite it taking decent photos, I want to move on to the next level. Really excited about to getting to grips with this beast and realise what a steep learning curve I'm on and will be looking for plenty of advice and tips.

Assuming still photography of a general nature; Aperture priority, set aperture to F8 or F5.6 ISO set to Auto ISO, range base to 6400, minimum shutter speed 1/100 sec Viewfinder screen set to show picture effect/exposure, histogram, blinking highlights and exposure information Focus set to AF-S with single point or area with 9 points Go out, make photos, see what's working and what's not, adjust to your own liking and use case.
