Works of Caravaggio, Titian and many other masters were not valued at all during some periods. A lot went into dumpster , rats ate some, some works were burned.... and many works were not recorded...

This was sarcasm - or was it?
Of course everything disappears some day - there are not so many dinosaurs walking around. But really! After some decades or some hundred years some scientist would...

Strange - this discussion - and the situation. That collection is so huge , that it contains also (how much?) some important things about art not just trendiness - what ever that is. People who...

I like zoom lenses when i travel - that is why i suggest X-E1 and it worked quite well in Rome. Somehow i can not see much need for fill in flash with this camera. It has quite special DR...

You did not tell what places you are going to visit  - Istanbul is very secular and more modern you can believe   and some countryside can be quite different. Like in USA or any other country -...

I will take my Gorillapod - it is not very stable , it is not high at all. And it is not very good in general... But it can do the job  - quite often. And it is easy to pack in a small bag -...

I have heard about things like DR and better high ISO...and several other things. But i was asking if there is any SIGNIFICANT difference. Something that somebody can really see. A real print on...

I happen to live and take photographs  close to  the coast.... of the Baltic sea. 14mm WA is absolutely too wide for landscapes - there are no high / huge mountains or fjords. The coast line is...

Canon G1X ! - works like any PS camera and looks like one Results are like from any basic DSLR - usable zoom - portable. And does not look like an expensive camera... G1X , Lanzarote "field"

I tried Silkypix ... then i bought AccuRaw.  Soon after that came Aperture update and it works quite well. My CR2 files have been giving good results  since .... many years and RAF files are a bit...

In the old days when photographers did not have fast aiservo  in their cameras they just had to prefocus to some special point - end besides that there was no 6fps and only ISO 400 ... High ISO...

I'm not quite understanding the problem - you are using manual non Fuji lenses - but are you expecting the camera adjust something????. The camera is made to to communicate electronically with Fuji...

70-200f4IS is not so heavy and if you take photos  of running dogs you have to use f 5,6-8 anyway to get deeper DOF - and f4IS is not SO expensive. Your 50-250 is also quite good after some...

My suggestion is X-E1+18-55 and no flash - save that money or the lens No 2.  High ISO is great - do you need a flash? After some time with the zoom you will probably know what you really need -...

But how much and does it have any significance to a photographer is an other question.  I stopped dreaming of FF after i bought X-E1 - i had 6D in my mind... Very few of us print routinely bigger...

Congratulations Takes some time before you  start to understand the Fuji way to do things.... clever but different Try the DR settings (DR200 with film simulation standard or Astia) - JPEGs of...

Really it is the RAW conversion and sharpening settings  - the results are different in ooc JPEGs and with conversion tool settings - this was not a good test of resolution. It is the software that...

I have owned a 24-105 and i have used it with my 40D and 7D. Fuji with 18-55 is perfectly on par with my DSLR cameras. i just printed a series of images in A3+ size = 13x19" and the resolution is...

I have been using a 24-105 for 4 years on my 40D and 7D - and now a Fujinon 18-55 for two months - and i have checked also the Photozone test.  24-104L is not bad - it is a basic good lens. Not...

EVF is very different form DSLR viewfinders. There is no other alternative - just start thinking in a different way. X-E1 can NOT totally replace a DSLR ,  but after some time X-E1 starts to feel...
