Re: In SeaWorld - SanDiego with Fuji X-A1

Hi, Thanks for sharing these. I'm especially interested to see an X-A1 post here since my X-A1 is arriving Thursday.

I like your composition, and was pleased to see the camera focuses well close up and at a distance, and could take those action shots which I know my current camera would have missed. But I'm wondering, like others, about the colors (especially the dominant blue) and the exposure. I hope you don't mind sharing a little about what might have been going on because it kind of doesn't look like normal camera defaults, but maybe it is.

Were these SOOC? Were there any in-camera adjustments to saturation, color, etc.? They look like basically good photos that have been dulled down and made bluer. It would be a big help to me if I knew if that was "photographer's choice" or "camera's choice".

Thanks for any help on this--I keep looking around for recommended settings but haven't found much--
