I am still not in need to replace my X-T1 and as promised to myself, I will only do that when the camera stops working.

 

THEN

 

This camera (or its successor) will be a good candidate for replacement. It looks like it has everything that I would be needing and I don’t have particular hangups about the type of sensor.

 

Size is a problem. I have never particularly enjoyed handling small cameras. Back in the day it was a reason for me not to like the Olympus and prefer Contax (among the many cameras that I have owned) or Nikon.

 

If a model lives long enough and is sold in sufficiently large numbers, it will always have some sort of third party grip which somehow seems to defeat the purpose of the makers striving for ever smaller cameras.

 

I don’t really need, per se, a “ reflex” look camera as long as I have an electronic viewfinder of sufficient quality and size, but the width and thickness is really what gives the “ feel” of a camera.

Walking around with a small camera is nice but I definitely prefer the handling of the top models. Using big lenses with the X-T100 is not going to be far from ideal. I do feel that the EVF of the X-T1 is better but I mainly use the LCD screen. Other than that, the X-T100 does everything I want it do. Sure, AF won't be as good as top models but I don't use that either. Image quality is incredible. Björn Moerman says he can't really see IQ difference between the X-H1 and the X-T100.

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

    • 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.
