Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum having just bought an R5, so apologies if this has already been discussed (I did do a forum search first)... Grey importer Panamoz (from whom I've bought kit over ...

Hi X and GF owners, I have a question about tonal range. I remember when digital was becoming mainstream, medium format digital cameras had lower MP counts than their DSLR cousins, but had ...

No one mention the pop-up Clown-suit and Bubble-blower shop on top of Snowdon.

No thanks - the silk camera strap would be ridiculously thin and too easy to snap.

Imagine that!

…and imagine in that universe Leica is cheap and plasticky, the sensor resolution race topped out at 8mp, and their Chris Nichols loves 35mm lenses.

…okay, maybe the last one is...

Hi, I found this review buried in YouTube, and although I’m not a videographer I thought I’d pass it on… https://youtu.be/n8a_-vZ4eUo As an example of the depth of this review, the guy used a ...

I can understand why folk don’t like them, but I think they look all white.

Hi, I’ve used the 100-400 quite a lot over the last three years. I have the IS turned on all the time, as at 400 it’s really hard to keep it steady enough to compose or track whatever you’re taking. ...

That’s a real shame - in England Fuji use a third party lens rental company, so I guess they couldn’t find a similar partner to cover NI. Thanks for the compliments - I guess I proved the saying ...

That 200-600 does sound exciting. It’ll be interesting to see what aperture/weight trade off Fuji make - I’m guessing from what we’ve seen of it, it’ll be fast and heavy.

Thanks very much Jim!

Hey Jules, thanks for the comments! Agree the Fuji Loan Scheme is great - I previously borrowed the 80 macro and had a similarity good experience. The QC checklist that came with the 200 showed it ...

Thanks Dennis, and agree that a 200 2.8 would be great!

Excellent eye for composition!

Hey everyone, not sure how many here know that Fuji UK (and maybe elsewhere) have a free-to-borrow promotion covering both X and GFX kit that’s been running since last year. So I decided to borrow ...

Ah that makes sense - thanks!

Also, for the camera to display the focus distance on the manual mode focal scale, I guess it needs to be told this by the lens.

“…the lens features electrical contacts for transmitting … focus confirmation…”

This sounds odd - surely it’s the camera alone that determines when something is in focus?
