Luckily I had my HX80 handy when this anhinga decided to strike a pose for me. :-) - "Gear is great, but vision is better." David du Chemin

"....I would really like to have a good low-light camera. In bad light, the F900EXR isn't really much better than my cellphone. APS-C would be." After seeing how big the 15-45mm Fuji lens is I lost ...

I would suggest using iAuto+ for a user with little experience. I use it when handing my RX100 IV or HX80 to a neophyte and the results are usually fine.

Sounds like a rowdy bunch on that cruise. What ship? No internet - was that by choice? Most ships now have very good (but expensive) internet service . Hope you got some good pix. Any birds?

Don't be late back to the ship. Our cruise left six people standing on the dock in Bermuda in 2010. It Is a long swim home!

I agree with Jerry on the virtues of the Stylus 1/1s. I prefer the Olympus colors I get from it but for birds I go with my FZ300. The Fz1000 was on my wish list but it is too big and too heavy IMO.

I am in Portugal and thought of this thread. Good wine here.

I'm not sure. Go to the Fuji Guys channel on YouTube and ask. They are good about respond to questions.

FWIW The new Fuji X-T100 with a larger APS-C sensor and an EVF does in camera focus stacking. https://m.dpreview.com/products/fujifilm/slrs/fujifilm_xt100

Better Quality Control at the factory - hopefully. Panny's QC is not great these days based on forum users comments.

Love the images shown so far. As I gathered these shots I realized there was a certain theme among most of them - FOOD. Babes and Beer. From Amsterdam where they know how to party. Real Belgium ...

The Canon G3 X is weather sealed. "Dust- and water-resistant construction Just like with select EOS models, the PowerShot G3 X camera features pinpoint alignment and rubber sealing that results in ...

Sounds like a bird pecking to me, though not a woodpecker.

Have you done a factory reset?
