No direct experience, but from what I have read, the X-S10 has the 17.5mm eyepoint viewfinder, not the 23mm of the X-T cameras. I definitely have had an issue with that on some of the X-E models ...

Great photos. Making good use of that 600 mm reach! Rich

I'm fully bought into the Peak Design system with two leashes, a Slide Lite, a regular Slide, and two Capture Clips. It is so versatile. If I'm just carrying a light camera like an X100, I often ...

It's often not ethical or even legal to get closer, for example nesting raptors. Here in Colorado they have actually started putting fencing up around known nests because people are getting too ...

Excellent to know. Thanks!

Great info Morris. One question from me. You are using the Fuji teleconverters and not the Sigma? How does that work? I assume it is body > Fuji TC > Fringer > Lens? Thanks, Rich

The only link I saved was to his A-FC settings on Fred Miranda. Have just been following along on threads. Edit: And here he is. Didn't notice before I replied. Rich

Great writeup. My experience is similar. I'm keeping my 18-55. I have a good early copy, but in the years since I got the 16-55 I just haven't found a situation where I'd rather put on the 18-55 ...

I'm with you and I am torn. Fuji is rumored to have their own 200-600 next year, but I'm considering the Sigma +TC and Fringer adapter for the interim based on some of the results Morris has posted. ...

Level line, battery, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, metering, and exposure compensation. I suppose that is a good amount. Rich

Thanks for the warning. I haven't experienced it with Godox on my X-T3, but then I haven't put the i40 on that camera either, so it could just be that my current body has a better flash shoe than ...

The i40 has a really lousy foot and locking mechanism. I've had this issue with that flash on several older bodies. I am now fully invested in Godox flashes and commanders and have not had a ...

Fuji lists compatibility for the 100-400 on the lens's page. When the 100-400 was released, I bought mine with the 1.4TC as a bundle.

Ok, but he did ask about flaring and ghosting and you can usually see those in the EVF. You can see contrast loss too, but not when it is minor. If that is the concern, I'd use a hood. I believe ...

The great thing about mirrorless is that you can see if you are getting flare in the viewfinder. If you are shooting without a hood and you see flare, you can use a hand to block it. With such a ...

I have the 1.4 on almost every time I mount the lens, and for birding, I could still use more reach. The results with the 1.4 are good, slight loss of sharpness, slight loss of focus speed, and ...

This amazes me for an adapted lens, but is quite appealing. Thanks for the info. Rich

Morris, How would you compare using the Fringer with the 150-600 to using the Fuji 100-400 + 1.4TC? Clearly there is a bit more reach (40mm) and f/6.3 allows for more light compared to f/8 with the TC.

I don't have the square, but the older model. It is great for parties (when those come back). Since I only care about keeping the raw file, I boost saturation and contrast in camera for jpeg when ...

Thanks, now to print it! Rich
