Oh yeah then I threw on a Voigtlander dome hood. Sweet.

I have a super thin 49-52 step up adapter so I can use my Fuji UV 52mm filter.

Did this, I think this will help a lot. Thanks

I have moved over from NIkon DSLR's. So bright sunshine wasn't too much of an issue, as I had OVF. Went to a farmer's market today. It was a bright sunny day and the EVF was quite hard to see through. It seemed that the only way to get more light in was to dig deep into the menu to brighten the screen. Is their a simpler way? Sure wish I could assign an FN button to adjust screen brightness.

Any tips on Shooting the XT-1 in bright sunlight? Trying to get the hang of it.

OK sports fans, I have the 35/2 mated to my XT-1. Yipee. Reminds me of the Leica M-9 and 35/2 Cron, except lighter by a mile. Now about filters; Fuji says to only use a clear protector filter such as their own offering(although none available in the 43mm mount). Says not to put a UV filter on the lens. What are others doing in this regard?

My upgrade worked fine. Sorry to hear about your trouble.
