I do not wish to block the site. My point beeing that the members database only contain active members. If one can't terminate an account means that there will be tons of members that not actually are members that contribute. I just did not want to be one of those...

was your " host file" or "hostile file” ?  :D

 

Seriously what is that Johan? I don’t know about these things, but you are the IT expert

If you put an adress, here www.fuji-x-forum.com, in the hosts file and divert it to 127.0.0.1 the browser, or any other program, will look for that IP-adress. 127.0.0.1 is your computer so you will not find any fuji forum. It is you own computers DNS server. I.e you will block that site.

Thanks, there was no need of a new post, you could have simply edited your previous post now you have another post on this forum  :)

 

You don’t want to contribute to what? If you don’t write or come back here you don’t contribute.

 

As for non active members. The Membership of any forums contains over 75% of members whom for some reason or other no longer participate. This is the transient nature of internet.

 

It is not that because of you being a member of this forum in perpetuity will grant any monetary gains to the ownership.

 

They base their  advertising on the hits rather than on the number of members. Every time you open a page there is a click and they can say I have has so  many hits my space is worth that much.

 

Not : “ Look, I have so many members, my space is worth that much!"

If it's not your thing, just don't use the forum any more. I think I must be a member of a dozen or more forums I haven't looked at for years. I can't even remember what all of them are. It makes no practical difference to me whether my membership is technically still in existence or whether it's been terminated

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.

      Typically you need to make sure the lens is compatible with the camera, i.e. check the lens compatibility charts for your camera, then make sure the respective firmwares are updated so older issues are resolved. After that, each lens has a manufacturer’s profile which will be embedded into the raw file meta data for the images captured using that lens. From there, it is up to the raw conversion software to apply the lens correction to the image. Different converters do that differently, some automatically, some only if a setting is turned on. For in-camera jpegs, the on-board converter does the corrections automatically, assuming the camera recognizes the lens, it applies a generic profile otherwise. I do not know if that can be turned off or not.
