  1. I also agree. While not a huge issue, it does present a problem when the shooting conditions are dark and the subjects are moving, because the 3 focuses better but has more noticeable noise than the 2. As someone who switched to Fuji for primarily JPEG shooting, it's a little disappointing to have to fix this in post.
  2. It didn't take long for Fuji to react to the Sony A7III. Good for them; given the price and performance of the latter there should be a downward correction of many overpriced cameras. This is going to be a tough year for the X-series, especially with Canon and Nikon jumping into the fray in the near future. Selling at a more affordable price point is going to be necessary to survive.
  3. Well, it is with a not so heavy heart that I depart these Fuji shores. I'm moving "down" to MFT. I bought a Panasonic Gx850, with a collapsible kit lens, and have been stunned by the picture quality that this tiny gem produces in a camera that makes the X-T10 look enormous. Added the 45-150 zoom (90-300 equiv)and all of this together weighs less than my 55-200 XF and is much smaller. Other than size and price, what really made me tire of Fuji was the hit and miss AF and the quirky controls/poor ergonomics. I have an easier time with the much smaller entry-level Panny MFT than I did with my X-T10. And it's tiny. Did I say tiny? TINY!!
  4. Very nice picture. The glare of the center subject and the unfriendly posture of the lady with the sunglasses adds oomph to the shot.
  5. My wife has the Panasonic FZ300, and the touchscreen is ridiculously easy to use for AF selection while using the EVF. I'm pretty disappointed that Fuji is deliberately hamstringing the touchscreen functionality - I won't get an X-T2 even though I like the form factor because I do want the ability to use a touchscreen, and I won't get the X-T20 if I can neither focus with or use the touchscreen to change camera settings, as it seems that is not possible. Which genius thought of that? Give us touchscreen and allow us to do everything or nothing with it. But don't give us a half-assed screen that doesn't have the competition's existing functionalities. I'm disappointed.
  6. With all due respect, I grew up using the metric system also, and I doubt very much that I could ever accurately tell whether a subject was 35cm or 40cm away from the front of my camera. This is almost certainly an innocent user error.

  12. All excellent posts! I love Fuji, but I'll be the first to admit that my Canon gear has flash capabilities that the X series cameras can only dream of. So, of course, If I need to be shooting flash all day, I'm not even going to pack my Fuji gear. If I don't need flash, and am going on a hike, then the small and lightweight Fuji comes out to play. The camera is a tool. I don't use a hammer to open a bottle, or a bottle opener to pound nails into the wall. I use whatever is best suited to what the task at hand is. And since we all have so many different tasks, it's impossible to find the one and only tool for everyone. Anyone who claims otherwise is no expert, just someone speaking from the standpoint of their own convictions, and we should remember this when we read their posts.
