Hello, I have joined the Fuji X Forum today. I have been browsing for a while before I made the leap into buying my first FujiFilm camera. 

I have a X100F arriving today, It is used, purchased from WEX photographic here in the UK. They rate it as 9 for condition and is complete with all the original accessories and the original box. The reason I chose a used one was down to cost and the fact that WEX offer a 1 year guarantee on the camera.

I have used point and shoots before, and the last few years the camera on my phone. I looked at DSLR and micro four thirds cameras, they didn't feel right for me, too big and loads of buttons and features.The X100F hopefully will suit me ( I have tried one in a store) before making the decision.

Thanks for reading this.

My two X100 series cameras (S later converted to IR) and F changed my life, photographically speaking.  I went from an occasional shooter, mainly on vacations to a photo nut.  And I love it.  I'm always thinking of where to go and what to shoot next. I don't always use the manual dials and buttons but when I need more control, it is so easy.

It is even better when you customize the settings.

I use ND and ISO on the front and Flash, WB, and Film Simulation on the back ring plus the quick focus button and magnify button.  I never use the Q button for anything.

If you enjoy yours even half as much as I enjoy mine, you will be thrilled.

    • 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.
