Hi everyone,

 

My name is Martin, and I'm new to the forum. I wanted to share some videos and feedback I got from using a Speedbooster Ultra OM to FX in case any of you was wondering to get one.

 

 

1.- Unboxing

 

2.- Warning, some incompatible lenses 

 
3.- Review with Zuiko 50mm f/1.4
 
Hope you find this videos helpful, let me know if there is anything you want to know about the speedbooster.
 
Cheers!
Martin

Thanks. Very helpful. I guess, it'll all depends on whether the 3rd party lens is worth it for the extra one has to pay for a speedbooster.

 

Glad you find it helpful, I agree with you but I don't think someone would by the speedbooster just for one lens. In my case I have 4 Zuiko lenses 24mm f2.8, 50mm f1.4, 135mm f2.8 and 80-240 f4 so by adding the speedbooster I bastly extend my optics options on the XT1

 

Plus, they haven't let me down! ;)

      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.
