We travelled around Iceland with my wife last week. Such amazing country with a unique scenery in every five minutes of driving. I could have stopped at every 200 meters, but had to think about my companions nerves and limit the shooting a bit.

 

18-135 mm is the only weather sealed lens I have, so that was a natural choose to come along. Also would have liked to have a super wide lens, but all I have on the wide end is 18 mm pancake. The 18 is actually so small, that it ended up in the camera bag also.

Thanks for this! I'm off to Iceland later this month and super stoked about it. Going to bring my 16mm (because its fast and wide), my just arrived today 90mm (because it just arrived today and that's what you do even if it isn't practical), and the 18-135 to fill in any gaps.

 

I'll probably also bring my X100s just to have a normal focal length for the times I need it. I figure that's better than bringing along another prime.

      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.
