@TheTomx: not missing that at all, IS is not useful for dealing with motion, and "travel" often means images of people.

IMO, when people say "travel photography" I would think that some low-light capability would be desired, and this lens doesn't really have it. It's also rather conspicuous looking and heavy. On the...

We don't know the US price - past history shows that you can't always go for a straight currency conversion.

If you have a Pentax lens system and are content with it, the price of this body is not *that* big of a deal, especially if you get several years of use from it. That's who this camera is for....

Sorry, I thought the sarcasm was obvious.

4) User Experience When Fuji introduced the X-mount, they did so with a camera body offering traditional dials and a prime-focused lens lineup. This got my attention because it demonstrated that ...

Just like how photography ruined painting. Isn't it normal for every art form to be occasionally "ruined" by technology?

Hmm, 28mm in my left pocket, 40mm in my right; I could make that work ;)

Maybe, but unless the Fuji lens has a focus clutch (most don't), focus-by-wire is not fun. I'm mostly shooting landscapes, so lens focus noise has *never* been an issue for me and the complaints ...

I will almost certainly buy the DFA21 if and when it's released. I also want a telezoom for my K-1, I just haven't decided which one to get. I'm leaning against getting the "K-new" because of the ...

I've also added some Fuji gear to my collection: X-T4, 35/1.4, 23/2, 14/2.8. I've also got a small Micro 43 system which I enjoy shooting with. To be honest, it's been kind of fun indulging my GAS ...

A key advantage of the non-PSAM system is that I can check my settings when the camera is turned off. Otherwise, I like PSAM systems that have custom settings on a dial, that's what I miss most ...

This happens to me all the time, but I have been successful dealing with this (so far!) by taking a positive, friendly approach. First, I point out to them what I like about the scene, telling ...

I admire you for being able to shoot like that. When I'm using a zoom, I usually just adjust the focal length to crop the image in camera. Lazy, yes; which is why I prefer to shoot with prime lenses.

When their full-frame effort shows significant market share, I'll have been proven wrong. More than a few big companies have miscalculated with their "homework," just ask Nokia, Kodak, Blackberry, ...

It's not the FOV, it's what you do with it; notable photographers who used 28mm frequently include: Lee Friedlander, Constantine Manos, Sam Abell, William Klein, Garry Winogrand. There's a reason ...

Strangely enough, even though I only have an Olympus camera, I've actually spent more money on the Panasonic lenses I use on it, and I get the impression that I'm not the only one who has a mixed ...

APS-C is just a format; we don’t buy formats but rather we buy into systems. So your question is better asked as: Is there a future for Fuji X? And that really depends on Fuji. They made their ...

I wish they had just re-done the 18 f2.0, this f1.4 lens is (probably) going to be rather large and heavy.

F2.0 is highly unlikely but would be nice. More Toneh!
