Hi all, has anyone else encountered a problem getting this hood on their lens ? I have just a bought a very good used copy, in great condition. However i am damned if i can attach the hood! Many thanks, Simon.

Beautiful dog and capture!

Holy Trinity Church in Colchester in the UK, Fuji XS-10 with 16-80mm, Acros+R

Many thanks, this is useful.

Hi Olaf, thanks very much. It's just in this case i wanted about f2/2.8 etc for a nice bokeh with some flowers. Thanks again.

Many thanks for the welcome, and thank you for the advice. I had set it to both, i appreciate that.

Hi everyone, as said i have just signed up to the forum this week. I am totally new to Fujifilm cameras, and have bought an XS-10 with a couple of lenses. I wonder if i could ask a question, i was out shooting yesterday in bright sunlight. I had on my new Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens, and was just doing some nice flower shots. When i got back home, several of the flower shots i took had an incredibly fast shutter speed. Obviously this is a great, bright lens, i took photos of 1.8, 1.4 2, 2.8 aperture etc. I was shooting in Aperture mode, with a low ISO. I should mention the lens, and gear is perfect, i have taken images before and after, and they are excellent quality. The several i am referring to though were incredibly dark, which mystified me, as i was shooting wide open, on a lovely bright day. A few of the shutter speeds, were absolutely crazy like 1/32000, 26,000, i have never encountered this before. I used to use a Nikon D3500, with differing lenses. A few yesterday were ok in between the very dark ones, with speeds of about 1/3500. Obviously today i realised they somehow didn't get enough exposure time which made them so dark, the question i have is why did i obtain such high shutter speeds. If anyone can shed any light-no pun intended, on this i would be very grateful. I have not done any photography for a couple of years, due to poor health. So i am just trying to take things slow, i do love the new camera though. Thanks again, Simon.
