  1. This month I will do a practical comparison between the 35mm, 56mm, 56mm APD and 90mm as I have all of them in usage for weddings at the moment. I will test them for usability in fast-paced, slow-paced and portraits situations. I will leave a link here, if i'm done with it.
  2. Used the technique with the Fuji 90mm f2. Works well. I will try it with the 56mm at next occasion. Why many photos? It's simple. You always get a distortion in your pictures. At 200mm it is almost completely nullified of course. But with shorter focal lengths, it is not. By shooting more pictures, you get every piece of your brenizer from a center-part of a shot. That way, you don't have to fuck with distortion problems. Other than that there is also vignetting. I shoot Brenizers in RAW mode and the RAW converters are not equally capable of compensating for the lenses' flaws as is the intern JPEG engine of the X-T1. Also there is really no need to use a special program if you have Photoshop. It can merge the whole shit together, compensate for some vignetting and even distort the pictures as needed. What's important though: You need to have some textures/colors in the areas further away from the subject, because Photoshop is looking for those. If they are absent the programm doesn't get what you would like to do. For Portraits it pretty much makes no sense to let it stitch together automatically, as all melted areas are strongly melted and lack details/texture/recognizable colors.
  3. Something I'd like to add. I've shot with 18mm, 23mm, 35mm, 56mm and out of all those I consider the 35mm the most awesome. The pictures have just that delicious quality of bokeh which for me slightly stands above the rest. So I'm more than excited to put the 35mm to use with the AF improvements. @chris would love to do an indian wedding. They always look colourful and spectacular. Not easy to get to do it here in Germany. Consider me jelly
  4. Tons of informations given does not equal real experience. There's a dedicated Facebook group for wedding photography with Fujis. I'm glad to be a Fuji photographer especially for doing wedding photography. I used many different DSLR-systems in the past and all options have their strenghts and weaknesses. The Fuji system plays straight into my hands, as I hate to be flashy and obstrusive. The AF is absolutely sufficient to create a wonderful wedding coverage and I promise you that you will get shots that you wouldn't ever had gotten when using a loud and bulky DSLR My only gripe would be the low-light capability (speaking of high-iso), which I guess is gonna be overhauled with the next generation of cameras.
  5. I find the difference to be really dramatic. Excited to see comparions between the 56mm and 90mm though.
