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).

I had no problem finding a spot at the beach this afternoon. Was not crowded at all. GFX100 RF.

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.

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 problem

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. Cronin

X-T5 150-600 at 150mm. Cape Henlopen State Park in Delaware.

Picked some late season peppers and placed them on a carnival glass bowl.

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.

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.

GRACKLE! 70-300 at 300mm, xt5.

Practicing handheld shots, panning with slower shutter speeds to show motion and still freeze the subject details...........I got these down to 1/20 and 1/15 sec, 150-600 at 150mm, xt5. Fun to try.

Trap Pond State Park, DE.......cypress trees on a calm day. 16-80mm.

these were better

couple more

Heavily cropped ospreys..........good shots, just too far away. 150-600mm.

I guess they're not insects........Indian River, DE on the beach, 70-300 I think.

A couple from Cape Henlopen, dreary day, dreary photos.

ok, one more, not sure if this was stretching or some sort of ritual.........

couple more

(Open Thread) Not a winter landscape, but still cold.

I was told the GFX 100 II couldn't do this so I decided to test it:

Hello Greybeard, That's exactly it! Two minutes after making that post, I discovered I had to set the dial to “C” to solve the problem Thank you so much for your answer. Happy New Year!

Hi Jerry, Two minutes after making that post, I discovered I had to set the dial to “C” to solve the problem. Thank you so much for your answer. Happy New Year!

A Blue Grosbeak, I think. XT-5 150-600, 378mm. Cape Henlopen State Park Delaware.

Here is another shot looking away from Assawoman Bat in MD at sunset. I was waiting for the moon to rise in the east and decided to turn around.

Another sunset shot at Indian River Inlet, DE. Nothing special, just liked the sky. Handheld, no editing. X-T5, around 16mm I think. lol.

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.

a couple more from the same day

Jefferson County, Kentucky, USA

Probably Twins...

trying to create something different..........10 stop 30 sec, 16-80mm xt5
