    PaulGuy reacted to Tom H. in Fuji Porn - What's in your bag?   
    So many options to build a bag, this would be my generic natural light portrait shoot bag. I bring an old roller suitcase for my tripod, flash gear and other accessories if I need artifical light.
     
    Digital
    Fujifilm X-T1
    Fujifilm X100T
    Fujinon 16/1.4
    Fujinon 56/1.2 APD
     
    Film
    Hasselblad 503CW
    Mamiya 6
    Zeiss 120/4
    Mamiya 75/3.5
     
    Spare film and a spare back for the Hasselblad. Spare batteries and memory cards, a lens pen, a microfiber cloth, a lightmeter.

    I finally got it! I LOVE it!
     
     
    I think I'll do something similar to you JLing. 
     
    Take the X100S everywhere, but when I have a bag, take the XT1 with 35mm and 12mm.
     
    OVF with the framelines and mini EVF in the corner is such a fun way to shoot. I'm addicted.

    Hello.
    I put the order a few weeks ago, I have a ver bad case of anxiousness... I bought the camera separate from the body, and now they offered in Amazon US with a $99 minus. I just chat with them and they approve the discount.
    so, Scored.
    SO EXCITED. 
    Sorry I will post photos from the camera.

    Hi John,
     
    You have made a choice, a decision.  What is the point of worrying about what advantages other choices that you could have made might have?
     
    The X-Pro1 is still a super camera, and is capable of super photographs.  The camera will be limited only by your capabilities, not by what advantages other models may offer.
     
    Enjoy your X-Pro1.  I recommend the Fuji 27mm pancake lens, or the Fuji 35mm lens.  With either of those two lenses, if you don't get great shots, then it's down to you, not the camera
     
    Have a look at the photos on my Facebook or Flickr pages.  Many of them were taken with the X-Pro1.  Flickr will even tell you which camera was used for each photo.
     
    Asking what differences other cameras have after you have ordered the camera will only confuse you, and will be counterproductive to your creativity, because instead of making do with the choice you made, you'll always be thinking "what if?"
     
    Go take some wonderful photos with your camera, when it arrives, and don't worry about other cameras for now.... the best camera in the world is the one you have in your hands when you need it

    PaulGuy reacted to Alf in Have I gone Mad ???   
    Heres an interesting thing ......
     
    I may well have lost the plot (quite possible)
     
    Anyway here goes...
     
    In the beginning there was the XP1 which after a bumpy start I ended up really liking , it had soul it was a camera that just felt right ...
     
    Then enter the XT1 with all its bells and whistles and yes I was tempted  by the new camera and ended up with 2 of them 
     
    They were fine and I used them with no problems but I did not love them
    Compared to my XP1's they were ugly and just had no soul 
     
    Yep I know I'm mad but to me a camera needs to have something about it more than mega pixels and fancy focus , if the camera feels right a decent snapper will make great pics , I really do believe that 
     
    So....
     
    Here we are at XP2 launch and I have had mine a few days 
    Yes it works fine 
    Yes its faster
     
    But having it made me get my XP1's out of the cupboard and guess what .... It doesn't seem so slow 
    Granted its not very useful for super fast things but I don't snap super fast things 
     
    Then I started looking at image files from the XP1 days and I think some of my best Fuji era work was on those cameras !
     
    Ive also printed those files to A1 with no problems  (I'm never likely to go bigger )
     
    So here I am with 2   XP1 bodies and an XP2 body , I am 2 days away from a job in Paris and I am seriously thinking do I dare go back to the old days !
     
    I am seriously considering it and if I do .......  who wants to buy an XP2

    I went to Italy this past October. I took two cameras. An X100S and an X30.
    Next time I would only take the the X100S. 
     
    my 2 cents, and worth every penny :-)
     
    Have a great trip! Hope you and your wife get to Positano. One of the most beautiful and romantic places on earth. (Even if a bit touristy)
