  • Replied in Buying online?
    I bought an X100 from DigitalRev (I'm in the US) for a total of $500 in savings. I've had the camera for 7 months without any problems and (maybe you already read about it) if there are any...
  • This was taken on a tripod (3s shutter speed) but the VR on this lens plus the fact that it's an UWA allows me to take clean shots consistently at 1/3s. If I hadn't had the Tripod I would have...
  • Thank you! If you buy one I am confident that you won't regret it.
  • I decided to go with a 1X1 frame for this shot. Taken with the 6.7-13mm
  • Glad I solved the mystery for you! I think that if you decide to purchase this lens you will be pleasantly surprised by it's build quality and output. It's a very fun lens.
  • When the Nikon 1 series was first launched there were a bunch of mock up lenses on display. Of them, the only one that I can remember that hasn't been released yet is a macro lens. So if I had to...
  • I like the star effect that F/16 obtains with the lights. That's pretty much it! I took many shots at around F/8 but ended up liking the F/16 shots better.
  • Created discussion More love for the 6.7-13mm
    It's been a little while since I've been able to get out and shoot. After finishing up my finals last week yesterday was my first official day of summer break. I took the Fuji X100 out and had a...
  • Pretty cool set. I like that you took pictures of what is essentially an untidy apartment but you were still able to make the shots interesting. Interesting to me at least. Anyway, it's inspiring.
  • Nice pictures. That's a crazy set-up that the videographers use.
  • Well, the only way you can get away from needing vertical correction is by either using a big ladder or a tilt-shift lens. In some cases I like the "leaning" that occurs such as in this picture.
  • Excellent shots! Everything there seems to have a nice texture to it. I love this lens as well but I've never tried any vertical correction. Maybe I'll look into that at some point.
  • I'll be in Japan this summer as well and I'm going V1 + (c) unless my V1 sells on ebay, then it'll be a V2.
  • Very nice photo! Is this B&W out of camera or PP? Recently I've become really interested in B&W so I'm curious how you came up with this gorgeous result.
  • I bought my X100 from them and it still works perfectly. Shipping was incredibly fast. It arrived less than 48 hours after I hit the order button which was funny to me because my spare battery that...
  • In regards to the EXIF data, that's strange. I've listed my V1+10-30mm+SB-N5 on ebay and if I get what I want for it I'll be buy the V2 immediately and later the SB-N7. I'm not sure if it will sell...
  • Do you have a link to pics or can you post any? I have the 10mm pancake but the only real reason I keep it is for it's compactness. I did cave and bought the UWA but after shooting with it I have...
  • It depends on your shooting habits. My style of shooting is usually fairly slow and without long bursts of photos. I don't shoot sports or kids though, so if that's something you are doing you may...
  • Very nice! I agree that the 30-110mm is a superb lens. Picking up the 18.5mm is definitely something you should do if you like that FOV, but I'm sure you know all about the lens already. I may put...
  • I've been happily using the V1 since Jan. 2012 and I've installed the Franiec grip. I love the camera and the lens selection but I've been thinking of "upgrading" to the V2 as well. PASM dial would...
