  1. I tried placing the iPad by itself with the bag empty and it fits easily. The picture below is how I placed the iPad 11" without a case or magic keyboard. So yeah I think it'll fit better with less equipment. Sadly I can't simulate a smaller camera such as an x100v which I think would be perfectly sized for this.
  2. Just got my 6L last week and it fits the following: 1. X-H2 with 16-55 2.8 2. XF 33mm 1.4 3. XF 56mm 1.2 4. Charging Cord 5. 2 Power Banks 6. iPad Pro 11" (Kind of hard to place in, I think a iPad Mini 8.3" would be a better fit)
  3. I'm currently using the X-H2 with the 16-55 2.8 and 33 1.4 so can't really say how much the difference would be between a 2.8 and a 2.0 at night but usually in my last trip to Singapore I only use my 16-55 2.8 during daylight and during night time I tend to use the 33mm 1.4 as the faster aperture is very much appreciated during night time. Most of my friends who use the fuji system though tend to suggest to get the following 18 1.4 and 33 1.4 to cover majority of street shooting at night time. Not sure this helps since the 1.4 and 2.0 are quite different in the quality of their images.
  4. Yeah PD is very good. Already have the Every Backpack V2, Camera Cube, and Wrist Straps. They are all awesome. Just took the plunge and bought the Sling 6L V2. Once it arrives I'll post pictures of my gear with it maybe some others are contemplating on buying this bag and would want to have a sizing guide.
  5. Hi Guys, Needing some advice if the PD Sling 6 V2 is enough for my needs since the store here where I am living require you to pay in full amount for the bag and they don't even have a demo/show model we can test if it fits our gear. Currently I only carry the following during trips: 1. X-H2 with XF 16-55 F2.8 2. 33mm F1.4 3. Cables / Chargers / 2 Extra Batteries I'm contemplating in buying the PD Sling 6 V2 since it is quite burdensome to bring the Everyday Backpack for some trips I do. You advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
  6. I think $600.00 is kind of expensive for the 56mm. I got mine for around $400.00 1 year ago but this is in the Philippines and it was on sale at the time I bought it since the new one came out and everyone was disposing of their inventory of 56mm version 1. If you can get it cheap the lens is very good especially on the newer bodies, I'm pairing it with the X-H2 and compared to when it was on the X-T20 you can really feel that the lens produces sharp images and the autofocus has improved when attached to a newer body. Overall if it is on sale then get it, otherwise you might invest it on newer lenses.
  7. Yeah same as what my friends said that I might as well opt for the 18mm due to the price. It's very sad that the 16mm is still so expensive at this day and age even though it is quite old. I guess I'll be getting the 18mm next week for my trip.
  8. Hi, Could I ask what body you run with the 16/33/56. I'm currently looking at the 16 and 18 for my 2nd 1.4 prime but a lot of people say I'm better off buying the 18 1.4 especially since the price of the 16 1.4 and 18 1.4 in my country is basically the same.
  9. Recently I've been traveling again and found that my current setup an X-H2 with 33 1.4 is sometimes too tight in certain scenarios. I'm currently looking at the 16 1.4 and 18 1.4 and am in the following dilemma: 1. Fuji says the 16 1.4 can't fully utilize the 40mp sensor 2. Both lenses have the same price here in the Philippines 3. The 16 1.4 looks cool - I know forgive me for such nonsense sentiments 4. If I plan out on branching onto video a lot of people say that the autofocus on a the 18 is hugely better than the old 16 What do you think would be a better purchase?
  10. Got the 33m with an X-H2 around 5 months ago and I can say that it is very good. The size isn't really bothersome as my previous gear was a Canon 7D2 with 24-70 2.8 and I say that was huge. Overall even the hugest Fuji's aren't really that huge tbh. But I understand what you mean when you say that the 33mm 1.4 is very chunky vs the f2 as my partner uses an old x-t20 with a 23 35 50 f2 and when I let her borrow my 33mm she has the same comment that it doesn't feel like fuji anymore since she got into the fuji lineup with the mindset that these cameras and lenses will be the smallest in class. Oh yeah what body are you using, I was initially leaning on buying the older 1.4s as they were smaller but most of my friends who got x-h2 and x-t5 told me don't bother since its a waste pairing with an x-h2 and x-t5 since the older lenses can't render the whole 40mp, whatever it means I just photograph for fun and just took their advise that I should follow Fuji's website on which can utilize the sensor on the x-h2 properly.
  11. I use both SD and CFExpress can't say you really need the CFExpress unless you need those prores video. Personally i shoot stills and even using burst back then I could survive with the SD. Also just a hobbyist at this point so might be a factor on why the CFExpress might not matter to my use case.
  12. Yeah I think you're right with the going wider part. I realized that I almost never use the 56 when I go abroad and just leave it at home since its too tight at times. I might get the 10-24 as a walk around lens since the x-h2 has digital zoom which might be viable as I rarely shoot long.
  13. Hi, Just got back into photography and currently using a 33mm f/1.4 and a 56mm f/1.2 I used to shoot with just a single lens back then when I had a Canon 7DMK2 with a 24-70 F2.8 I'm loving both the 33mm and 56mm from fuji as the image it creates is just wonderful, i'm planning to travel again and was wondering what are your guys opinion on the following lenses that I could add to my kit. 16-80 F/4 R OIS WR 10-24 F/4 R OIS WR My friends keep suggesting to get the 10-24 F/4 since their reasoning was i already have a 33 and 56 focal length and the 16-80 might get redundant. But from a traveler's perspective especially when you only have a single lens what would your choice be? I was thinking a 16-80 might be better since there are times the 56 during travel is never used especially in cities with tight space but i still change to the 56mm when i need to shoot something far.
  14. ok thanks man. i'll go ahead and sell this online and get the correct cfexpress card later on.
  15. Hi, I was gifted a SanDisk SDCFXPS-128G-X46 which is a CF card that isn't supported by the X-H2 since it requires a CFExpress. I just got back into photography and got this X-H2. I was wondering is the X-H2 backwards compatible with this CF card as it isn't listed.
