whc

+1 for SanDisk card, no issues here, have both standard extreme and uhs-2 extreme from SanDisk working fine, even though uhs-2 cards does not get up to the 200mb+ write speed in the camera, so just go for standard extreme cards IMHO.

That's bad news so many are having these issues, hope fujifilm in future will have better quality control and mere WR lenses. Contacted fujifilm here in Denmark, got a reply that they do not handle cameras at all, and he had forwarded my mail to the correct office, just waiting reply, hoping for a fast exchange for a new lens.

Got my close-up filters today, and seems to work ok with the lens, though I will see once I get out there and shoot some more, hope I can get time to do so this week, if weather allows . First no filter, second +4, third +4 & +1 = +5, fourth +4 & +1 & +3 = +7

Just noticed yesterday when cleaning my 18-135mm that's only 3 weeks old, that there is some dirt/smudge on the first inner element/lens behind outher lens, is this acceptable or should I try to get a new one? It came with my X-T1, that I bought from hongkong (live in Denmark myself), so sending back will take some time, any experience with Fujifilm if their 1 year warranty exchanges lenses locally, even though it is not bought in that country? Hard to take a good photo of the smudge, here is the best I could do with my iPhone.

Thanks totally missed that setting, now full 16mpix image is transferred.

I'm sure the 60mm lens is beautiful, and am very tempted to picking it up, since it is so cheap, though came across a thread at another Fuji forum, and after seeing what this guy could produce with the 18-135 on extension tube and closeup filter, convinced me that I need to just try this out first, since it is also allot cheaper, tjek this out: http://www.fujix-forum.com/threads/macro-and-close-up-learning-day-with-the-xf-18-135.36456/ And yes the 60 is not "true" 1:1 macro, kind of a bummer, but again it that price point it is at now, don't think you can go wrong anyway. Looking forward testing the closeup filters firstly, and see what I can produce, in needed getting closer then will get the extension tube, still not satisfied, either get the 60mm cheap or save up for the 120mm

Thanks for all the advice, have just ordered some Polaroid close up filters here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003UHY7D6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 Maybe a good and cheap place to start, and then add on later the extension tube, then save my money and wait for the 120 macro lens to come out. Even though I am tempted to get the 60 macro (so darn cheap), don't think the 60mm reach is quite enough for my shooting, and with the extension tube I could get the same focus distance with my 18-135 lens (or even down to 4mm focus length if I read the chart correctly).

Simply cannot find how to transfer bigger than 2mpix images to my iPad Pro using Camera Remote. Cannot find any settings on the camera or in the app to enable full image transfer, it it not possible to get the full 16mpix image to my iPad without using my pc or a sad card reader?

Thanks for the offer, though I live in Denmark and always a hassle importing stuff outside EU

Am very tempted at getting the XF60 it can be bought pretty cheap on eBay, but with the XF120 around the corner, thinking that would be the perfect focal length for my shooting (60mm is a little short I think), maybe I would be better off getting the much cheaper extension tube and use my 18-135 for now, and save up for the (probably) hefty price tag of the XF120. From what I have seen online, the 18-135 with extension can produce some pretty impressive macro shots, but like you said it is unusable for anything other than closeup with the extension off, so could be frustrating having to take the extension tube off if wanted to shoot anything else than macro. Just have not been able to find comparison between the XF60 and the 18-135 with the extension on.

More shots

Got my X-T1 10 days ago, and really enjoy using the camera. Got the kit lens 18-135mm which is pretty good overall, and really like to be able to go wide and tele fast without changing/carrying several lenses. I really like to shoot flowers and bugs, and want to get real close macro shots, I can get pretty close with the 18-135mm, but would like the really capture closeup detailed sharp shots. Closer than the attached images I took today. Well my question is, should I just go for the XF60 Macro, use extension tubes on my 18-135mm, or is there any other options without spending all my money on lenses (the XF60 can be bought pretty cheap though). Only do this for fun, and already spent money one the camera, 3 extra batteries, fast UHS-2 card, and battery grip. Don't think the wife would like me spending that much more at the moment , so hoping for some solution that does not require spending allot of money on prime lenses at this time . Any help is apriciated
