Indulis Bernsteins

C'mon, having to have a post-it note glued to the back of the camera to remember what C1-C7 are. This is so dumb I gave up on using the C preset functionality.

I have an X100F, anf for those of you who don't know, the leaf shutter in it enables the X100F's "party trick" which is to be able to flash sync up to 1/2000s of a sec = wide aperture nice boken ...

The 18-55mm lens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amelsz8LYOc

The XE-3 and the 18-55mm lens would be a great "replace the SLR" option.  You would have a camera that you can (almost) turn into a rangefinder style stealth camera (electronic shutter, 27mm ...

Why spend all that money on a lens and then "trust" in some cheapo filter. Even expensive filters hurt the contrast of some lenses. I did a test when I had a Canon SLR with a 17-55mm F2.8 lens ...

Me too. And I really REALLY wanted to like it so I could get away from Adobe's lying and "push everyone into monthly fees" approach.

I agree, I spent the money on ON1 2017 but it really wasn't good at all. So if On1 want to let me have 2018 for free to make up for it, I *MIGHT* think about wasting some more of my time on it...

If you have an X100/S/T then you might want the tele to preserve some pixels. For the X100F it is a heavy big (really big!) piece of glass. If you were doing lots of portraits it might be OK too. ...

Another vote for WCL-100. WIde angle is useful. TCL-100 (telephoto) can be skipped because you just crop the photo from a camera without the tele converter to get the same field of view.  You ...

OK for a few hundred $/£/€ it is not a bad toy, just sad to see the brand dragged into irrelevance.

It is called running out of battery. Every phone can simply prioritise and shut down all non-essential processes (Android does, my laptop does this in "power saver" mode). Done. Implemented. For...

Pretty much true!

I would recommend the WCL converter lens, which changes the 35mm equivalent lens on the X100F to 23mm (i.e. 0.8x). It is VERY good quality optics. No change in quality, focus distance, or aperture. ...

That assumes you are somewhere that has wifi and have both the camera and the phone connected.  If you are away from a known wifi point, then you need to also carry a small wifi router e.g. to the ...

Digidirect (WA) has the X100F for $1511, usually $1699 or $1750. This makes it the same price as the overseas internet suppliers (usually HK), of course if you buy from the  companies that ship ...

I still have my X-E1 and a bunch of lenses, but they have not seen much use since I got an X100T. Having said that, there are times I use the X-E1 instead of the X100T. I will probably upgrade it ...

This camera is not targeted to people who value a "smartphone user interface" over image quality. If you do, then you can buy a smartphone. Different target markets.

Just buy the wide angle adapter for the lens. Full quality, small, no loss in aperture/picture quality.

The sun is "crushed"! 1/4000 sec at F2.0, bright sunshine at midday, Canon 580 EXII flash at 1/16 (I think!)

The X100 series' "party trick" is to be able to sync with flashes at up to 1/1000 sec or faster. Why is this good? Because you can set a wide aperture (nice bokeh! small depth of field!), and a ...
