  1. I use the same as I always done, but it would be fun to hear others thought and settings. I think it depands on what type of street photography one shoots also. I shoot a lot of sun and shadows were the person is more of an extra to the actual scene. So I use AF Mode (Zone) and Custom settings I never really bothered to play around with. So no idea why I settled with this but I go with tracking sens. (3) Speed tracking (middle) and Zone area switch (front). What's your settings and why, also what type of street photography do you shoot?
  2. Thanks. Not really what my post was about. I asked for input about lenses.
  3. I disagree. IBIS and new sensor in the X-T5. Also time to cash in on the X-T3 before it's price drop even more.
  4. So the X-T5 is around the corner and i've decided to sell my X-T3 and X100V and only use the X-T5. The lenses I got today are: 10-24mm WR 50mm f2 55-200mm Laowa 65mm The only lens of these that I've decide to keep is the 50mm. I love it and use it all the time. Also it will get maximum benefit of the 40mp sensor in the X-T5. The others...not so much. According to Fujifilm. I shoot mainly street. But I do some nature and macro from time to time. So my idea is this: Scenario 1: So i'll be shooting the street with the 23mm and my 50mm. Then for nature/landscape and travel i'm leaning towards the Tamron 18-300mm. I mean i'm just a amateur photographer so going for the 8-16mm and 100-400mm or something is bit of an overkill, and pricey. So with that just have those 3 lenses. The 18-300mm, 23mm and 50mm. The thing is i'm not sure if the Tamron 18-300mm can deliver? I've read that it's a bit soft in the edges. Also how are the colors with it, those fuji colors we all love... Scenario 2: Keep the 10-24mm and 50mm. Add 23mm, 70-300mm and 1,4x teleconverter. This is an option that I like, even though it's more expensive. Not sure about the 70-300mm though. Seen reviews that talk about it not being super sharp? And the downside with this scenario is the lack of an "travel lens" like the 18-300mm would be. What makes most sense? Or maybe anyone of you got a better scenario? You guys who owns the Tamron 18-300mm how is it compared to Fuji lenses? You guys who got the 70-300mm, is it sharp and worth it's price?
