Re: Best demo of the differences

I think this demo shows the differences I see between my X-E1 and X-E3. The rendition of browns by the E1, and to a lesser extent the E2s is where I see the biggest difference in my photos and I just love how browns are rendered. This may be a result of Fuji's tweaking for nice skin tones.

I think with some adjustments I could make E3 JPEGS look like E1 JPEGS. I think the differences are noticeable but subtle. I picked up my E1 in like new condition at a good price and I was glad to have the chance to see for myself what all the fuss was about. I also hunted for a Pro1, but its price has certainly risen to the cult camera level.

My favorite setup for the E1 is to use vintage film lenses. Some of mine have "character" that fit right in with the E1.

Here's a photo taken with my E1 and a Canon FL 50mm f1.8.

Camera JPEG slightly tweaked. X-E1, Canon FL 50mm f1.8. Natural light in our dining room.

Lovely photo, did you happen to capture the scene with your X-E3 ? Would love to see a (direct) comparison for this scene !

Alternatively would you be interested in producing a another test scene using a lens of your choice (of course) ?

Thanks.
