We had the same situation last year with a Nikon AW100. screen blanked out lens fogged up focus did not work properly. On a remote island as well so no chance of a replacement or repair. Luckily we...

fair go mate, the XZ-1 is still here and not going away anytime soon.  BTW it is going to be black as well, Fuji don't make cameras in winter camo. to keep you happy "mateship" War Memorial...

Mate it would be hard shooting with a short tele as your only lens , something in the 35mm full frame would be a lot easier. My favorite lens is the nikkor 35mm 1.4 . Fuji had a nice long nap but...

Hi Ben,  how's the Pen going?   I have done a terrible thing ,ordered a Fuji XE-1 twin lens kit. It had a screw in cable release , now I have to find which cupboard that is in! Aaron

Hi,  just a couple of points about the two images, The first one the aperture is at 2.5 which means your depth of field is limited , sometimes raising the ISO a lilltle bit will balance the...

Gday Larry Mate I did not have much use for computers until a professional photographer friend came to see me approximately 15 years ago with a coolpix 990 and I laughed at him till my sides...

Hi Larry, I really like the last shot the cloud patterns in the sky and the silhouette of the runner add a great mix to the scene. The third shot shows where the sensor has lost it in the shadows ,...

Hi ,  Your two images show the strength and weakness of the XZ-1's CCD , and I find exactly the same results, in daylight the great lens shows excellent detail better than many kit lenses on larger...

Congrats on your win! just an observation on these images you would have benefited from keeping the ISO lower looking at shutter speed and aperture looks like you had this leeway.Also I would have...

Mate this is totally off topic photo wise but if you have not seen it already see if you can get your hands on a copy of Britain's best drives with Richard Wilson. In one episode he takes a Triumph...

Its in great nick mate , yes there is something magic about the cars from this era.What are the badges on the grill , not the traditional british AA badge?

quality macro work, nicely done  Aaron

love the engineering of these classics , helped a friend of mine with a Mark 1 Cooper S 1968 many years ago. had the 1275 bored out to 1300cc , with the big rocker arms and twin SU carbys went like...

Nice MG mate for a moment I thought the lucky buggers got a Aston Martin DB4 but the bonnet grills facing the wrong way. the Smiths speedo with made in England narrows it down a lot Aaron

Hi Bob, here are a couple of shots of a Nimitz class aircraft carrier (USS George Washington)shot in daylight with two cameras a Nikon D4 with a 70-200 2.8 lens and the XZ-1. big sensor with...

I am in agreement with Henry and Optics engineer on this one.Especially since you want to use it in an underwater housing for diving. Unless you have done underwater imaging before make sure you...

Hi Mate , I have not used this myself , a few folks I know use it with their Go Pro cameras and others. It is free http://gopro.com/support/articles/gopro-cineform-software-download Aaron

Nice work mate Aaron

Sorry mate, I could not respond earlier . thanks very much for going to the effort of posting these pics. The reason why I wanted to see a couple of pics from both cameras wide open is that some...

Hi Henry, you have definitely got that one nailed! brilliant work on a super zoom with converter. Aaron
