Thank you for the warm welcome from a DPReview member. I’ve been checking in with DPReview since around 2001. Sorry to see it go, but nice to be here. I currently own an X-T5 with the 18 1.4. Never seen images so detailed, even with the full frame models I’ve owned. Also have an X100V for about two years now. Beautiful equipment. I started in photography with a Miranda Sensorex II in 1972.

Hello everyone! I saw my first Fujifilm camera at dpreview and it was love at first sight. I owned Canon at the time, but I found the Fuji system much more engaging. I'm shooting with the XT2, a small collection of lenses, and a GFX 50S system. Oh and the X70. I make large prints. I'm trying to improve composition. I do photography for fun. 😊

Hi and thanks for welcoming is dpreview folk into the fold. I was sorry to see depreview going; for me, it was a great source of information on new products, as well as advice and support. It will be great to have an alternative place for Fujifilm discussions.

I own an X-T3, which I use with a variety of lenses - most often these days with the 100-400, as a big interest is photographing birds.  Thinking of swapping for the X-H2 or - more likely, IF it gets the same AF update as the X-H2 received - the X-T5.

Looking forward to seeing discussions here. Thanks again.

Not a refugee, but I don't think I've ever introduced myself. 

Been using Fuji since 2018 when I started with the XT20, and I've since gone from the XT3 to the XT5! Mostly shoot landscapes and nature. But, dabble in street. Look forward to these forums getting more in depth and having bigger discussion

SO DP Review has successfully created refugees ahahahhahahah after all these years. I thought they could leave it dormant at least or let a volunteer take it up to manage which im sure they would have had more than required.

 

Anyway Im Richard, from Ghana. Been using fujifilms since 2018. Using the xpros, Xts, X100 and X10 and XQ. Fun times. I hope to be active and learn and contribute here.

I'm happy to be on this new forum! I will miss DP Review. I did not know they were shutting down but I have been less active in the photography scene as I have been moving away from professional fashion photography and more into mechanical engineering, sustainable architecture and eVTOL.

Long exposure night shots were my favorite before. (23mm Sony)

Recently been doing more snowy landscapes here in Vermont. (14mm fixed)

Thanks for the welcome!

Hi, I am a long time DPReview Fujifilm X forum user, basically visit there everyday and started many threads about lens sharpness test and comparison.

Owned many generations of Fuji cameras since X-T2 (came from Sony A7R3), and I am so happy with what Fujifilm brought us over the years, the improved primes, 40mp X-T5 are just dream came true! Also looking at buying X-Pro4 when released.

Hopefully I can find my second home here :)

    • Example: I am using a custom recipe, and I then use the film simulation dial to select a simulation. Are values from the custom recipe carried over, such as highlights, shadow, and white balance etc.? After studying the articles in Fuji X Weekly, this appears to be the case If you set a recipe on one of the C slots its settings will be applied to all the film simulations on the dial. The workaround is to use your 'standard' recipe at C1.   Please clarify this for me . I would have thought the film simulation dial would have no input from other camera settings.   Thank you - Very Confuded!
    • Is this on the X-T30 II? Sounds like you have HDR selected in the shooting menu. The other alternative when you see the "storing" message is that the Clarity setting is non-zero but that doesn't cause multiple clicks.
    • My XS10 came with a Capture One license but my PC at the time would barely run it so I stuck with my ancient version of Picasa.  Bought a new PC and my old Capture One has been deprecated and fuji site only talks about a 3 month trial.  Is there a work around or should I be looking for something else?
    • On aperture priority and single shot, camera clicks twice after one shot and then takes several seconds showing "storing" message.  This is a new camera and did not do this at first.  Does not do this on auto.
    • I have the Fuji 80 mm macro and really like it. It's very sharp and I use it for macro but also for general photography. If you find yourself zoomed to 55, this may land in the right spot. Also, this lens is very good with magnification distortion (pincushion or barrel), which is probably important if you're doing product photography and the product has straight lines. It is autofocus. I hear you don't prioritize that, but there's something else you gain when you have autofocus. You can combine multiple photos taken at slightly different focus distances, using stacking software, and autofocus lets the camera automate the process of taking all these, using focus bracketing. It even calculates how much the focus should change between these exposures. This lens, new, is above your stated budget. Maybe you can find it used? In any case, options are always nice to have, and others may like this option too. So, just a thought. One more thing: I've never used the Laowa macro you mention, but I do have their circular fisheye. I love circular fisheyes, and also have two other brands, and comparing them I find the Laowa is considerably better than the other two. That's a vote for Laowa.
