My X-Pro2 Review.

[adzman808]

Continuing (and finishing I think) the theme of 'the X-Pro1 "look" from the X-Pro2'

 

It would be slightly remiss of me not to try this with the SOOC Jpeg output.

 

I'm not much of a SOOC Jpeg shooter, and the tools to change SOOC Jpegs are limited compared to RAW.

 

How did I get on?

For this week's article, I'm using Fujifilm X Raw Studio!

 

Doing all of that Jpeg stuff for last week's comparison piece gave me chance to try the new software from Fujifilm

 

So I decided to write an overview about it.

A story of snaps and dodging rain drops this week!

 

After all those articles about getting the "X-Pro1 look" from the X-Pro2, I thought it was time to hit the streets with the original X-Pro, and to make life a little more interesting, I only took the XF56 with me!

 

I hope you enjoy the article

The X-Pro2 and Something Old Something New: A chance encounter with an ancient pathway

 

This week's article is a story about  the magic of finding a new place to photograph.

 

Turns out that not having a lot of time or the correct weather can make for the right photographical environment!

Nice one Adam, the journey continues.

This week I'm taking a look at an issue that's plagued so many early X-Pro2s

 

Explained! The X-Pro2 and the Story of the Missing Eye Cups.

This Sunday's article, well.... THIS ISN’T A TEST IT’S A BIT OF FUN

 

Lunchtime Legends: A Bit of Fun with the X-Pro1 and Leica M9

 

So two cameras... Quite frankly both a bit long in the tooth these days... yet each has quite a cult following, based largely on the look and feel of the images.

 

We can't really directly compare these cameras, (that would be like comparing two different cult movies) but we can take each out and see what pictures they come back with.

[adzman808]

Goodness me, Sunday already... I haven't stopped this week!

 

Images Compared: A Bit of Fun with the X-Pro1 and X-Pro2

 

Two X-Pro cameras, one lens, one image editor, and light so scary, tough and hard, that I wanted to hide my cash in my sock :-)

 

But just how different did the images turn out?

Closer Looking Images: A Bit of Fun with the X-Pro1 and X-Pro2 Part Two

 

Carrying on from last week, I apply some changes to the X-Pro2 files, to see if we can make them look a little closer

http://adambonn.com/my-love-affair-with-the-fujifilm-x-pro1/xp2-one-hundred-twenty/

[adzman808]

In my Sunday article this week, I'm going to show you the subtle differences between the standard X-Pro2 RAFs and the ones I hacked to appear to be from a X-Pro1

This week's article is up and we're continuing the comparison the two X-Pro cameras

 

Closer Looking Images: SOOC JPEGS with the X-Pro1 and X-Pro2

 

Are there any SOOC JPEG settings that make the X-Pro2 JPEGs look a little closer to the X-Pro1 ones?

What I love about the X-Pro2

 

After all those articles about the look of the X-Pro2 images compared to the X-Pro1 ones, let's have some positives!

 

I own more than one camera, and yet I keep the X-Pro2 around and shoot with it frequently.

 

Here's why.

 

http://adambonn.com/my-love-affair-with-the-fujifilm-x-pro1/xp2-one-hundred-twenty-three/

[adzman808]

For this week's article, I'm taking the X-Pro2 out into the wet, wild and unseasonal Portuguese weather.

 

Why would I do that? Read on to find out!

For this week's article, I'm keeping it super short (and hopefully sweet)

 

My Exhibition of Fujifilm Images.

 

Couldn't get to my exhibition? No problem, you can catch it in web form

[adzman808]

For this Sunday's article I'm getting out of my Fujifilm comfort zone with the X-T2 and X-E3

 

It's great to meet up with fellow photographers and temporary swap cameras, but what happens when you adopt someone else's camera settings too?

My X-Pro2 Images: Two Years On

 

Revisiting the very first images with the latest PP techniques

 

Well it's been two years since I got the X-Pro2... I wonder how my very first shots look with how I PP them these days?

Adam, I much prefer the colour shots( surprise ).

Sorry to hear of your woes.

The X-Pro2 and FW V5.00

 

This week I had some time to install FW V5.00 and look at the new feature that excited me the most.

The X-Pro2 and Monochrome Options

 

Ted Grant famously said:

 

“When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black and white, you photograph their souls!”

 

But what about YOUR soul, how do you want your photograph to turn out?

The X-Pro2 and Colour Options

 

After last week looking at monochrome options, this week we play the same game but with colour

Low on words and higher on pictures, I've had a busy week.

 

So for here's a little thing that's been kicking round my achieves for a while 

 

The X-Pro2 and Pride Reportage

[adzman808]

This week's article is all about my involvement with a Portuguese cycling culture project.

 

It's a ground up concept that I'm proud to have been involved with from the start.

 

It's waaay out of my usual comfort zone, so I thought you'd like to see how I got on...

Back from my holiday!

 

New Cameras: Plain Sailing Out of the Fog?

 

What a busy time it's been in new camera land.

 

 

These brand new feature rich cameras are mind expanding... People's reaction to them, not so much
