Hello everyone!

As a Nikon user, I’m new to Fuji (although I shot a lot of Fuji Velvia back in the film days)

I just picked up a used XT1 as my first mirrorless camera. 
My primary camera is a Nikon D750 which has been an amazing tool for my architectural work. 
However, I loved this little Fujifilm the second I tried it so I bought it to replace my worn out D600 as a backup camera. 

I just noticed a problem with it though. Once I attached my flash to it, the entire top piece started moving. I can wiggle it back and forth about a millimeter. That’s very disconcerting. Is this a common thing, and is there a way to tighten it?  

I don’t want to return it to the shop where I traded it, but I may have to. 
Thank you in advance for any comments and advice!  
Tim

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing, but it is well worth the effort.

      55 or 80?

      By BIGOAK · Posted

      Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?

      See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.

      What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
