    jeffryscott got a reaction from frankinfuji in 35mm f2.0 or f1.4 - never mind the noise or speed!   
    Had both and kept the 35 1.4. Both are lovely, but the 1.4 just has an extra something in its rendering that is hard to put into words. Had I not had previous experience with the 1.4, I would have been very pleased with the 2. You won't go wrong with either.

    I love my 18. Previously had the 18-55 and enjoy the prime so much more. I think it is an underrated lens.

    I'd like to see a quick card Format facility with 2 buttons pressed at the same time.
    Its one of the few features I miss about my Nikon cameras.

    jeffryscott reacted to lichtundlaerm in Vietnam with the X-T1   
    Hi everybody!
     
    During Christmas 2014, me and my girlfriend spent three weeks traveling through the northern half of Vietnam. The tour was (unsurprisingly) more or less: Hanoi --> Cat Ba --> Ninh Binh --> Hue --> Hoi An
     
    I would consider myself more of a landscape photographer and I have definitely shot far better landscapes with my trusty X-T1 than on this trip. (Probably because I spent too much time enjoying the country and the incredibly delicious food...   ) However, I would like to start my first topic here with Vietnam anyway for a simple reason: This was the trip that made me finally switch completely from Nikon to Fuji, for reasons of weight, bulk and inconspicuousness.
     
    So, expect a little bit of mediocre landscapes and some decent street shots. I anyway put it in this forum since the subjects are mostly typical travel-centered things. Hope you enjoy!
     
    As a starter: One of my favourites from Hanoi's West Lake:

    jeffryscott reacted to Tor M in X-T1 FW 4.0 BETA: I have it and share my findings soon ;)   
    Hi, I've been playing with the beta firmware on my X-T1 together with my XF50-140mm at my daughter's soccer tournament this weekend. I also stumbled into a local MTB race when I was picking up my second daughter at a band camp yesterday and got to shoot some of the racers. I'm very impressed with this upgrade. AF-C and Zone focus are working great!   If anybody are interrested, I have written about my findings in this blogpost:   http://www.fujiboys.com/blog/2015/6/20/x-t1-firmware-40-afc-zone-wow

    I've often read the criticism (not to which, I agree) that if Fuji would just make their cameras with all of these features in them in the first place instead of "half-baked", then we wouldn't need all of these multiple firmware updates.
     
    I can see that side of the argument, but I'm very pleased as to what Fuji ALREADY puts out originally. To me the FW updates are simply a surprise bonus. What say you guys?

    jeffryscott got a reaction from Hafer in X-T1 FW 4.0 BETA: I have it and share my findings soon ;)   
    Fuji is doing a remarkable thing, especially in this day and age, to improve its cameras beyond what the user paid for or expected. The silly arguments over whether the leaked firmware is or is not final are childish at best. People took the risk, however large or small, to install unknown firmware. Fuji and its reps have said it isn't the final version, why argue with them. Bottom line is, whether any line of code changes or not, until Fuji says it is final, it isn't.
     
    Enjoy the features the new firmware brings and please quit arguing whether it's final or not. It isn't. Plain and simple. Until Fuji releases it officially, this one isn't (doesn't mean anything at all will change with the official version).
     
    Now, can we please keep discussing the performance improvements ...
