Fellow Fujifilm shooter Alik Griffin is using the new REALA ACE film simulation on his Fujifilm GFX100 II.

According to him, this is the best Fujifilm film simulation so far.

My favorite Fujifilm Film Simulators have been Classic Chrome, Provia, and Astia. Those are what I almost always use before applying presets to any images I have. However, I’ve absolutely loved editing Reala Ace. It’s easily now one of the best Film Simulators Fujifilm has and I can’t wait to see what other photographers do with it when building Fujifilm Recipies.

Are you using REALA ACE?

Let us know in the comments what you think about and check out the full article and images at alikgriffin here.

As I screamed from the top of the mountains at sunrise: I hope Reala Ace will at some point come also to other 5th generation X series cameras via firmware update.

CineD has reviewed the brand new Sirui Sniper f/1.2 series of lenses that can now be backed at Indiegogo, as we reported here.

In short we can say: it has its flaws (quite a few of them), such as lack of sharpness wide open, visible chromatic aberration, not ideal bokeh, jittery IBIS (communication problems with the camera) and what not.

So it is far from an optically perfect lens.

However, it has definitely its character and CineD liked working with it, because it has its peculiar identity (something we often don’t find in optically “perfect” lenses).

Or, as the Sigma CEO said here “it’s easier to make a perfect lens, than a lens with character” [Note: which is why I LOVE my good old XF35mmF1.4 R – see it in action here in Barcelona]

It took Fujifilm long, too long, but eventually they figured it out: it was a huge mistake not to open their mount to third parties.

That’s why we now have the luxury of covering lots of third party AF lenses.

But not only that. There are lots of interesting lenses also when it comes to manual focus lenses.

That’s why today we will cover them both, auto and manual focus lenses, in this dedicated roundup.

Because there is lots of good stuff also beyond the world of Fujinon lenses.
