The 12mm f2.0 ROKINON (Samyang) is the ideal lens for astro-photography. With large open aperture and shutter speeds between 25-30 seconds at ISO 1600 you achieve great results. I like the lens and

NYC is a big melting pot... of course :):P

 

I have family in upstate NY, but they're Mohawk. I meant enough of them Mexi-cans to make bilingual signs compulsory. It's normal down here on the border but I find it strange up in NY. Down here a lot of folks don't even speak English ... and I don't mean people from Chihuahua.

Does anyone find this is loose in the fuji mount - I tried two different copies on my X-T1 and it was moving far too much in the mount. I am eager to find out if its different on the X-E2. Anyone have this issue??

It's not an issue on my X-E2 (and I've tried a couple of copies of the lens). It will move a little if pushed passed the focus limits but it does require some force.

That's a tolerance-thing. The slot holes in the Samyang lenses seem to be a bit wider than Fujinon's. But even with Fujinon lenses, there are differences. With the XF27 and the XF18-55, I have almost no play, just a tiny amount that seems to come from the play the locking pin has in the camera sided mount. The XF55-200 moves a bit more, but it's acceptable. The XF100-400 however moves so far that it can temporarily lose the electrical connection. My 12/2 moves very noticeable, worst of all my lenses. But there are no electrical contacts, so I don't care. A little rotational movement around the lense's optical axis should have no influence on the image.

That's why I said that it is probably a tolerance problem. Some of the slot holes on the lenses (where the locking pin snaps in) are wider, some are narrower. The variation seems to be worse with Samyang, otherwise your's wouldn't be tight while mine is loose. But even the Fujinon lens mount parts seem to vary, as my four lenses are all different.

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.

      I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.

      So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?

      X Raw Studio Doesn't Create Drive for Camera When Connected

      By JovialLich · Posted

      All software is the latest between camera and app. All settings are correct on camera. I have both lossless and uncompressed RAW files on the card in the camera. I have been up and down every reddit thread to no avail and am losing my mind… I’m doing all of the right things. It even sees my camera. It just doesn’t create the “drive” for it (see attached image screenshot).  Please Help!
