  1. Hi there I lost track in the past 4 month of all the novelties. IN addition to roboshoot, there's the Nissin air, the Cactus 6VII, and then new rumours about elinchrom and profit producing the right triggers for fuji I do not want to purchase a cobra flash TTL solution, I'd like more power Who could kindly tell me what's the best solution to use TTL/HSS on profoto gear, elinchrom, phottix and so on ? Thanks for your help! Andrea
  2. BTW : if specs did not matter you'd be able to shoot Mona Kuhn's portraits (Hasselblad analogue) or Alec Soth Mississippi pictures (20x25 analogue) with a Fuji XT1.
  3. Folks, I have had the chance to test the mitakon It's a very heavy lens. Very difficult to focus with. It's really not appealing. I tried the 90mm too but, if you're accustomed to remain close to a subject when making portraits, it obliges you to move back a good 3/4 steps That changes the relation. Good to shoot models or weddings The best solution - I found during these tests- remains a 56mm or a 55 Zeiss FE on a Sony A7RII I realise I have compared a 85 with a 55 but still in my quick test the Sony comes out as the winner of the two. In a very convincing way. It's the sensor.
  4. Hi everyone I am seeking advice on lenses which can generate on a X mount a middle format look What I am seeking is the eyes in focus and the cheeks out of focus, I am seeking the f. 0,95 effects which separates subject from the background I have read few reviews about the 0,95 options (mitakon) and found frequent references to flaws Worth 1300€? Not sure The 90mm seems an option but I wonder if anyone has a better suggestion I am trying to avoid moving to SONY which offers a much wider set of options and much bigger (80M) sensors Thanks in advance
  5. Yes flysurfer and more: It's heavy (and maybe fuji comes up with a better design) It's not a Fuji+ (meaning the company does not react and innovate like fuji, will not have soon a good lens array) It does not have the right software (ref. different format ratios for example) It's an isolated system surrounded by competitors with a totally different (read superior) marketing posture and appetite for investment
  6. This medium format story is one of the best news in the business in months (Somehow a more important one - for the masses - that the new XF100 from PhaseOne) We are almost about to come back to the 50s: Hasselblad facing Rolleiflex A flexible, articulated medium format system, next to another, with few constraints but with similar stellar image quality Hasselblad was the expensive alternative, Rolleiflex a less engaging option (also in terms of weight) Does anyone have an idea about the nature of the future sensor ? Any educated guess ? There must be a deal with sony to produce a 50M X- trans sensor. Producing a slightly larger one (say 60 would be an ideal positioning) Can I launch a proposal for Fuji ? Make sure the current option in the small format to change the ratio of the pictures is maintained ! It's got to be possible to shoot square (1:1), 4x5 (1:1,25), 24x36 or 6x9 (1:1,5), and the golden rule ratio (1:1,61) If you are a believer, promote this proposal in the forum and elsewhere
