Hi everyone, happy to join the forum and the world of Fujifilm. 

I just got the x100v and in general am rather a beginner with photography (had a dslr for some time 10 years ago). I want to do mainly street photography and occasional portraits (overlapping also). Here's my insta if you want to get a peak of my first street snaps with the x100v - so much fun! https://www.instagram.com/grammatology/

But so far I'm having quite some difficulties in getting really sharp results of people (let alone eyes) - while using auto focus and eye detection.

Can anyone relate? What should I do to get better results? Is there a software to later see, where the camera put the focus?

Since the uploads here are so limited I'll post a few more examples here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AekbqzH-LcTnTyEybBLjN0OLa6d-FKx-?usp=share_link (first portrait was shot everything in Auto)

      Because the sensor assembly is moved electrmagnetically. When there is no power it is essentially free moving.

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

      55 or 80?

      By BIGOAK · Posted

      Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?

      See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.
