Just like me to miss the Feb-August rebates by 4 days!  

 

Would anyone venture a guess if Fuji will have another sale in the fall?

 

I have Nikon gear now, but want something smaller for an upcoming October trip.

 

I did put in an offer for a X-E2 with Greentoe, if that doesn't fly then may go with the X-E2s.

 

Just joined the forum, Alan

Another Fuji sale just 12 days after the last one - did not expect that.

Looks like I jumped the gun and ordered a X70 at a $40 discount just today.

Based on the Canadian prices, there is going to be a $100US "instant rebate" in two days.

 

A case of the dealer having advance knowledge, and failure to check back on my own post before deciding to order.

Live and learn... and a good reason to keep up to date with Fuji Rumors. :angry:

Thanks Patrick! 

 

Don't see any X70 or X-E2S deals for the US market - those cameras do have "instant rebates" on the kerrisdalecameras site.

 

A little surprised that the products on promotion are different within North America. 

 

But this is a good thing, I can skip the buyers remorse and get on with enjoying my new X70.

 

If I like the X70, I'm going to consider keeping my Nikon D750, but selling my Nikon D7200 and DX lenses for the X-T2...

      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.
