All the images posted build a great portfolio and a complete body of knowledge on your works. So nice. That's make me convinced that fashion photography is not only the playground for massive medium format camera (obviously much depending on the usage of the files, for very very large prints for advertising, medium format is still a must).

I love each of your posted images.

Sneak peak video of a story I styled and shot with my good friend Melina DiMarco. Melina and I both started our careers at pretty much the same time, she was one of the first models I've ever shot, and I was one of the first photographers she's ever worked with. Since then, we've done a total of 11 shoots together, and each time we manage to both grow as artists. I'd share the still images from this shoot, but I can't share until they're published, so this sneak peak vid will have to do.

 

Shot on the X-Pro2 with the 18-55 f/2.8-4. Let's just say things bode well for the X-T2 in terms of video. I can't wait.

 

 

 

WOW! Amazing work! Do you think the 16mp X-TRANS 2 or even 1 can work fine for fashion? What about moiré? Do you see a huge difference between the 16mp and 24mp sensor/files?

 

Thank you!

I'm not OP, but I shoot fashion as well (http://jwctp.com). The only cameras I use are the X-T1 and the X-T2. It works fine. As long as the photos look good, it doesn't matter what you use as long as you can deliver the photos the clients want.

 

I did use the Phase One XF-100 recently for a shoot, and I loved the files from that, but that's just overkill. I think the X-T2 is plenty good for fashion for most situations. Also, I have printed out 24x36 prints and 16x24. They both looked great. 

 

I mentioned moire in the other thread, but yeah on my e-comm stuff, I see moire a lot. I'm not sure why I don't see them in my editorial stuff, maybe because the shoot isn't as clinical as my product shots.

Beautiful work! I really liked the subtle and sexy style of your photos!

 

I think these textures are very sharp:

    • Thank you. I will research it.
    • Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.
    • Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
    • Typically you need to make sure the lens is compatible with the camera, i.e. check the lens compatibility charts for your camera, then make sure the respective firmwares are updated so older issues are resolved. After that, each lens has a manufacturer’s profile which will be embedded into the raw file meta data for the images captured using that lens. From there, it is up to the raw conversion software to apply the lens correction to the image. Different converters do that differently, some automatically, some only if a setting is turned on. For in-camera jpegs, the on-board converter does the corrections automatically, assuming the camera recognizes the lens, it applies a generic profile otherwise. I do not know if that can be turned off or not.
    • How does one make sure that Fuji's image correction is turned on to correct barrel and pin-cushion distortion on a GFX 100 or GFX100S when using the GF20-35? Is it only applied to the jpegs and not to the raw files? (I was surprised to discover the barrel distortion on the GF 35-70mm lens.) I normally shoot in raw with jpeg back-up and use the raw files, which I convert either in Affinity Photo 2 when editing with that program or in Raw File Converter Ex 3.0 by Silkypix if I wish to process the image in Photoshop CS6. (Adobe DNG is also a possibility.) Thank you for the help. Trevor
