What Kind of Photographer Are you… and Which X-Gear do you Own & Use? – MULTIPLE POLLS

Share

FR-reader Funkmonkey was curious to see “where the Fuji rumors crowd sits” and asked here for a survey.

Well…. I thought it’s a nice idea to see what kind of photographer you are and which photography you do most, so I’ve worked on the surveys you can see below. And in addition to Funkmonkey’s suggestions, I’ve also added 4 more polls; 2 about which X-series camera/lens do you own, and other 2 about which camera/lens you actually use most.

Travel Photography – Fujifilm X-Pro 2 vs. Canon 5D Mark III

Travel photography demands high technical performances of a camera. A suitable camera should be able to reliably deal with constantly changing lighting conditions (dynamic range, ISO-performance, white balance) and react as fast as possible to spontaneous moments and movements (autofocus), just to mention the most important requirements. Among the “must have” of such an all-rounder camera are anyway colour-balanced and sharp photos.

Since the market launch back in 2012, I have been shooting with the Canon 5D Mark III and numerous prime lenses from Canon. The 5D delivers excellent picture quality, is fast-paced, and has a very good ISO performance for most situations. It comes quite close to such all-rounder. However, throughout the past four years I often met and exceeded the limitations of the 5D, which drove me crazy at times and brought me somewhat to the point of despair. These weaknesses include in particular its size, its crazy high weight (12kg in total with all lenses) and its poor dynamic range.

For my trip through Morocco in October, I got the opportunity to photograph with the Fujifilm X-Pro 2 to test the camera thoroughly. I have been wanting to try a mirrorless-system for a long time. Nonetheless, a full frame mirrorless camera would be no option for me. Full-frame mirrorless offers zero advantages compared to full-frame DSLRs in lens size and weight (only the 70-200f.2.8 weights 1,5kg!). So if you have a bag full of gear, the only area where you can save space and weight is the camera body alone which isn’t a big benefit. Initially I was very sceptical towards the idea of changing from a full frame to a supposedly weaker APS-C system. Given my high expectations regarding picture quality, I could hardly imagine that an APS-C camera could nearly keep up with a full frame camera.

My resume after travelling for two weeks with the X-Pro2? I’m just about to sell my entire Canon gear and switch to Fujifilm. Here are the reasons.

Fujifilm X100F – Tilt Screen or Not?

One of the question I get very often, is if the Fujifilm X100F will have a tilt screen or not. Well, I had a talk with a trusted source, who told me that the Fujifilm will NOT have a tilt screen.

Dear X-folks, we are now entering a very hot rumor time, so, for Real-Time Live Notification make sure to follow FujiRumors also via Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter.

And feel free to join the Fujifilm X100F facebook group.

Now share the word… and don’t forget to say where you read this rumor… I know it’s hard, but I believe in you… you can make it ;)

And as a reminder, here is again the Poll I’ve launched back in March, where I asked if you guys want a Tilt Screen or not on the X100T Successor.

by FR-reader Stefano: “I would like to suggest a look to this extension for Apple Photos: With Apple Photos I import on my Mac the RAW+JPG from my Fuji camera. Normally the basic editing tools from the app are enough for me, but I miss the Fuji Film Simulations (… Fuji should wake up in my opinion and make an extension for that …). With that extension I can from Apple Photos, open the Fuji raw converter, choose a film simulation, save back in Photos the modified JPG. Seems to work. You can call whatever picture editor you like and it costs only 1€”
