It only took me a couple of months with my early X100 to get frustrated with a non automatic automatic function and I have had it off for near two years now and never have missed it.  It is...

I use a std B&W skylight 58 mm filter.  Noticed no problems.   I have been very pleased with the lack of flare from the lens.  As an UWA you will find that the hood is not terrible effective at...

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but has the FW progressed to the point that you can manually set aperture and shutter speed and allow iso only to vary?   I quit using Auto ISO Control on V 1.0 of...

I held out as long as I coiuld but got the 14 mm last month.  Given its stellar reviews and its at the time apparently cheaper (now even a greater spread as the actual prices are out) price, I...

I recently added the 14mm as I was tired of waiting for the Zeiss 12 mm and the reports on the 14 mm were uniformly outstanding and I am not sorry I made the plunge.  Fabulous lens and, I think,...

Mine arrives tomorrow.  I was waiting on the Zeiss 12 mm but that appears to be vaporware, so went ahead and pulled the trigger on the 14 mm.  No reason to wait I suppose as the 14 mm gets such...

I am convinced that the Zeiss lens are simply vaporware and likely will never appear.  If they wanted to introduce them they could do so, but apparently Zeiss does not want them out.

I think a lot of the fora speak is user error or maybe more correctly "user inexperience and it isn't as fast as my PDAF DSLR speak." Any of the Fuji lenses require technique that is not learned by...

What you have grown to know and be comfortable with likely will produce the best images precisely because of that familiarity.  Unless you simply have a bad case of GAS, then sticking with the...

Sorry,  I gave two links to the uncorrected...

Please look at the images at 1:1.  The first clearly suffers from camera shake.  Look at the lettering on the signs to the right of the subject and the logo on the subjects hat.  Clearly camera...

And there is very inexpensive software to square it up some. Here is Image Trends Fisheye-Hemi work. Corrected

Somehow, I feel limited this week with my X100 (with WCL) and my XPro1 with the 35 mm.   So yes, something wider than 18 mm (and likely less wide than my Samyang) is a very useful lens. I am trying...

I think it is a simple decision.  If the price of the XPro 1 is OK for you, buy it.  If not than get the X-E1.  I have both and the XPro 1 is clearly the better built camera however the X-E1 works...

I have owned Elements 9 for 3 years and don't use it at all because of the steep learning curve. And this seems to offer the same problems. I can follow every step of the tutorial, but again the...

Very nice.   Probably the best $350 additon to my GAS I have ever made.......well the Samyang is pretty good also at the same price.

I moved from an LX5 without VF 2-3 years ago to the X100 and than added the X Cameras.  I have not taken a camera without at least the EVF since then.  I can't imagine trying to compose an image...
