Blue Zurich got a reaction from George_P in landscapes with fuji x
I love using the Acros sim to guide my RAW editing. After using 20-22 MP Canon RAW's for years, it's interesting/fun to have all the latitude in these 40MP Fuji files. Yellowstone National Park by the way.

Blue Zurich got a reaction from Jerry Marshall Photography in How Reliable Is The X-T5?
No issues, not one. I wouldn't call it flawless since the menu system is overkill (Canon rules in that dept) and it's a bit too easy to accidentally hit buttons (so I map them accordingly) Maybe they just didn't like the ergonomics, we are all built differently. Mine's with me until it dies. Great tool.

Blue Zurich got a reaction from jerryy in Fujifilm bird settings on a branch, etc..., not in flight.
Without knowing the lens focal length and aperture range, how could the reply make sense? What glass are you using in this case?

Blue Zurich got a reaction from jchabalk in Lens suggestions
The XF50 f/2 is underrated. It's only been in the past few years in the history of imaging that f/2 is not considered a large aperture (rubbish if you ask me) Great color, contrast, and accurate AF in a tiny package. Outside and tight indoor, this is the one iyam

Blue Zurich got a reaction from Ektachrome in XF90 Sunset
From the hill above my house overlooking the Salt Lake Valley and the Great Salt Lake.
Me, using the 135FF focal length once again for landscape. I guess that light above the lake symbolizes a phoenix, lol.

I've emailed both Duclos and Simmod for what kits they recommend. Thank you.

Blue Zurich reacted to Greybeard in Quiet sound from the body.
Is the sound coming from the camera or the lens? Does the lens have OIS?
The most likely thing is that you have pre AF turned on and its trying to focus all the time.
You can tell by turning off both IS (in the shooting menu or switch on lens) and Pre AF (in the AF menu) and see if the noise goes away.
Then turn back on IS and Pre AF one at a time and see when the noise starts.

Thanks for the input guys. I was eyeing the 70-300 as it'll travel very well and gets great reviews. I'll have to think about it a little more. btw I love your style Zurich those photos are fantastic

Blue Zurich reacted to Olaf W. in Problem with manual lens
Welcome. You have to activate „shoot without lens“ in the setup menu of the camera.

Blue Zurich got a reaction from Golden Oxen in New here
One way to feel better about Fuji's menus is to use an Olympus for a while.

Blue Zurich reacted to Golden Oxen in X-T5 telephoto Options
Hi, Bought a 70-300 mm Fujifilm zoom a while back on the
good review of Dustin Abbot.
Couldn't be happier, what a great zoom with super image quality.
Good price to for such a capable lens.

Blue Zurich got a reaction from Golden Oxen in X-T5 telephoto Options
I just returned from Yellowstone National Park with my 70-300 and a rented 1.4 TC. The combo was fantastic in many ways. Light, maneuverable, fast focusing in moderate to better light, fantastic IQ.
Here's a link to my Flickr account with that combo used in the wildlife shots and a few others. I went this route because I read time after time other shooters were happy with it over the 100-400.

Blue Zurich got a reaction from Drew Eden in Fuji XT5 quick test
That sounds fantastic, I highly recommend the 90 prime on the 5. It's a great match with the 40mp.

Blue Zurich reacted to jlmphotos in Best Lens for Las Vegas trip
If I were going to hang with friends out of ALL my gear I would take two/three batteries, and my XT1 with my 27mm 2.8 (original version)
That's it. The XT1 with the 27mm pancake fits anywhere including my pants pockets so I'd be set.

Blue Zurich reacted to SGinNorcal in Very disappointed...
I have the XT-5 and I can assure you the menu system has a MF Assist with an option to turn it off. When you go to the Menu, are you first going to the AF/MF category and scrolling down to the second page, you will see MF Assist. Go into that and one of the options is OFF. This is the same menu where you change the color for Focus Peaking.
You seem determined to not see this and complain about Fuji. The functionality hasn't changed just the default setting. With this tiny bit of customization, you can control it yourself rather than it automatically shutting off. I think this is inline with the nature of the camera, program what you want and don't have things fixed a certain way that can't be changed.
