I’m totally on board with this and hope it’s as great and impressive as the 75mm f/1.2 has been.  The 75mm is my favorite right behind the 18mm 1.4 LM WR. 27mm is such a great focal length, but as fantastic as the pancake has been for me, I’m left wanting at night for faster glass.

I'm getting less and less excited for this - it looks big and heavy.  For what I would want to use it for, I would have preferred it a 1.8, maybe 1.4, as long as it was no larger than the Fuji 18/23/33 1.4's  When I used the 27mm pancake, it was a GREAT compact size with great IQ, but there were a notable number of occasions I just needed faster glass.  f/2 at a minimum, but something in the 1.4/1.8 would have made it FAR more useful.

I have both the 75mm and the new 27mm Pro line lenses from Viltrox, I'm impressed with the 75mm. I have not used the 27 mm a lot but it's impressive as well.

      Anyone out there have any experience/feedback on the Laowa 55 mm tilt shift? I’d be using it on the GFX 50s ii.

      gimbals (& threads getting spammed)

      By jshire · Posted

      Hi, I'm researching a gimbal to get someone as a present & they use a Fuji XS-10. I did a quick search of previous threads on gimbals but all of them seem to either get no replies or spammed by a link to an Amazon list. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who've actually used specific gimbals with the XS-10. I'm aware that some, such as certain models from Zhiyun, DJI & FeiyuTech either don't say that they are fully compatible with the XS-10 but other sites say they do work ok but some functions don't. It's quite difficult to work out which functions work & which don't. Thanks.

      A portrait with a 28mm lens

      By DavidJohn · Posted

      This was snapped during a lunch.  Total shooting time—a few seconds. We so often read that a proper "portrait" should be snapped with a longer than normal lens, a low ISO to get lots of detail, and have a soft light held up above the head, and slightly to the side. The key, in my opinion, is always carry a camera.  Have your camera available to capture candid, authentic photographs.  Available light, no posing.   This portrait used 2000 ISO, the lens wide open at f4, and 1/100 sec. to stop any movement.  I didn't even take time to compose—I just snapped.  I leave the "Face Detection" on unless I'm photographing a landscape or subject other than a person. The GFX100RF has the equivalent of a 28mm lens.  The large sensor renders fine detail even at fairly high ISO ratings.  And the drawing of the lens is just perfect in my opinion.  It was set to B & W, with slightly reduced sharpness and clarity (set in-camera).  Ideal for "portraits."  Now, for some subjects I will likely increase the sharpness and clarity to the normal setting.  The camera is new, and I'm still experimenting with it.
