Love this!! Oh my, so well said.

Sorry, for what I do, I’m not going to be a mile off when I start. Like I said, I’ve been doing this your for years and know where I need to start and go from there. It’s not as though my first ...

WYSIWYG - that’s mirrorless. If it was a prism or a mirror, I would rely on my sekonic visual spot meter to tell me what to do. At some point you have to rely on a metering function. You can get ...

I completely agree with you Bill. If you’ve done things for a long enough time, and found the most efficient way to use the camera, then that’s the easiest for the user - use case or not. Two ...

The EVF or the LCD screen are real time. Unless I’m doing some very long exposures (nothing longer than 2 minutes) I can see based on the live view. When it’s a longer SS, capture one image and ...

SS is set to T. Therefor I am spinning the wheel to change the SS.

Again, well said by someone that obviously uses the gear! But, it is high quality gear that you acquire. One should understand that. Quality makes all the difference and Fuji are very good at what ...

Nothing beats quality. I have an extra bottom plate made by RRS for the X-T2. https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4440431

in your use case, Erik. I shoot full manual almost all of the time. I spin the front wheel while the SS dial is set to T, if the OP was wondering. I do manually adjust ISO if I have to.

Very personal….it really depends on the image you want to make. Some situations call for long exposure which will lead to saturated/soft water. Some are perfect for freezing the water.

I think I know what you are after. Stopping down to the extreme end of the aperture does indeed allow less light, allowing for a longer exposure. But, diffraction occurs. You need an ND filter. It ...

Still interesting to me…..zero response from the OP. Yep, axe to grind and understandable. Yet no follow up information…..did it even happen? Just saying……

If the subject is moving, one would use MS, in almost every circumstance. OIS should be shut off in your lens. OIS only helps when you are the one that is moving - steadies the shake that occurs ...

What battery brand(s) are you using?

What’s the lighting in the hallway? Museum lighting(spot) or flood lighting, halogen,,, that helps understand how the image will be illuminated. Then I am able to make a suggestion. I currently ...

Having played laterally thousands and thousands of rounds of golf, I agree. The long rays of light really help one focus on specifics and how to work that light. Good swing thought, or should I ...

Yep, good to see. iPhone for video….

Dry bag from Amazon runs $20-$30. Used one while canoeing in August. Easy to use and really quite the simple solution, on land or off.

You didn’t see my post up toward the beginning of the thread? Send it to Fuji if you couldn’t get it off with what you said in the OP were wet cleanings. Bump.

I didn’t miss that …. at all. They purchased a grey market piece of electronics. They purchase a warranty from the retailer they purchased the camera from. They know Fuji won’t honor a grey market ...
