Thank you.

Hello I currently shoot an X-H1 (for about 2 weeks now and I am. loving it). I only shoot at two ISOs - 200 and 800 based on the fact that it is dual gain and those are the 2 base ISOs (and it's ...

Yes, I saw. Didn't think it worked anywhere near as well in B/W. I thought the first was the better of the two in colour. Keep on keeping on!

Yes, please keep posting, Baobab. I found these photos interesting (more important than whether or not they are technically amazing). Please don't stop and don't be put off by self-proclaimed ...

Now, that is a really cheap shot. Yes this was about ergonomics (look it up).  On the way I was asked why spot metering was so important to me and through that question, I learnt a lot and ...

Yes, of course, I do. That is what I am arguing should be the case. That is what the word option means. In Nikon's implementation on the Z50, in certain AF modes, there is no option. Is this ...

It's not about where you want it or where I want it. Do you accept that there is a use case for both? Do you accept that there was a time when it was in the centre? Do you accept that the spot ...

You have completely missed the point. The OP's main point is that it was a retrograde decision to force the spot circle to follow the focus point. That should have been an option, not forced on ...

We were discussing the Nikon Z50. Someone kindly checked whether it had a circle or not and found that it doesn't. If that is, in fact, the case, will it convince you that it was a bad idea? see ...

Thank you. So far, so good.

Actually, given the way modern cameras work, the spot meter is about the only one of the available meters that allows you to make an optimal raw exposure.  You can relate a spot meter reading to a ...

New cameras also have delineated  spot meters - it hasn't got to do with age but good design. Because spot meters are less used, designers feel free to cripple them or implement them shoddily as ...

Pick up an old camera and look for the spot meter circle. It is marked (delineated) as a circle. They did that to allow you, the photographer, to place the meter properly on your target. If your ...

The same way that I can judge the ergonomics and design of anything I use. Objects are not made for design teams but for people. How many cars have you owned? Did you find that some were better to ...

being in a minority has nothing to do with being right or wrong - especially not on the interweb. that's something I learnt a very long time ago.

as if on cue, I started seeing the word storing after each shot and things were taking longer. the drive  had shifted...

and thanks again for the tip. Loving the X-H1 so far. It's a fairly complex system configuration wise but so versatile and with so many options. Still don't quite understand intuitively the ...

Thank you - that's what it was. Off to read about the DISP/Back button...

Hello I am sure I am doing something wrong but I have read and re-read the manual and I can't see what it is. I have Liveview Highlight Alert Warnings enabled under Set Up -> Screen Set Up -> DISP. ...

as regards the alleged inelegance of my response, I apologise for the brusqueness of my tone.
