  1. I have both XFs you mentioned, 35 and 23. For me, the 35s FOV is rather boring; 23, on the other hand, renders incredibly beautiful photographs.

     

    But it's all just a matter of personal preference: I know a lot of photographers who absolutely adore that 35mm Fujinon.

  2. Sounds like a good idea, but (and it's a big BUT!)… it seems that FR readers are from all over the globe. "Buy & Sell" section works best with location-specific forums.

     

    Oh well, maybe we can have many location specific Buy & Sell subforums? (one for Asia, one for Europe, one for US/Canada, etc)

  3. I had no idea that was a thing. Now i'm really curious to see an example of that. :rolleyes:

     

    Most likely it will be months before I get into another project that justifies renting MF camera with a LS lens, so I cannot provide any examples yet. But it's relatively easy to imagine. Lessay, you are panning your lens while tracking the subject. Upon opening, the leaf shutter represents  an aperture – going all the way from f/infinity to f/working and back. As a result, you have a really cool shift of DOF, diffraction artifacts, weird fringes at specular highlights etc, etc, etc. Very unique look. I dearly miss it.

  4. I contacted the forum software provider:

    Bad news: In this version GDlib is the only option.

    Good news: The new version which is just released gives the option to switch to ImageMagick.

     

    I have no idea what kind of traffic/storage limitations you have here, but have a look at Picturefill or Retina.js powered solutions too (2048px is the new XGA, and photography related forum needs to be Retina ready). Maybe you can lift a 500kb UL limitation, too?…
