LAST TICKETS for the Rajasthan Photo Workshop 2015
SAVE $200 + $300 will go to charity

There are just 3 places left for the Rajasthan (India) Photo Workshop in February 2015 with X-photographers Matt Brandon and Piet Van den Eynde. As they are both X-shooters and love Fujirumors, they decided to offer a $200 discount, exclusively for Fujirumors readers. Futhermore, they decided to offer the last places with a $200 discount and additional $300 per sold ticket will be donated to Matt’s charity initiative that supports NGO’s, the OFMP. Check out the details of the workshop here.

soundimageplus: “I’ve moved my blog to a domain website. This is www.soundimageplus.com. I’ve also expanded what I do and have decided to work on making the blog a serious review and blogging site. In the past it’s just been more a less a hobby and a break from all the editing work I undertake. You’ve always been a supporter in the past and have been kind enough to link to my posts about Fuji gear. If you are interested there are some recent posts you and your readers might be interested in. I’m currently posting a lot of material to get the site up and running. The posts are: NIKON Df AND FUJI X-T1 – HIGH ISO COMPARISON – THE FUJI X-T1. A 6 MONTH USER EXPERIENCE AND REVIEW – SHOOTING STOCK AT STATELY HOMES WITH A NIKON Df and FUJI X-T1.

– STOCKOGRAFIE: “This photograph was taken in Beijing after a long night flight. It was early in the afternoon and far too early for bed so I went out to relax a bit with my X-T1 and the Zeiss Touit 1.8/32. I participated in the „Zeiss for Photokina“ contest with this photograph and it was one of the last three. Due to this it was also shown at the Zeiss booth at Photokina.”

– Joshua Moss: “Hello, I thought I would send a quick note about the performance of the Fuji 50-230mm. I shot with this lens at the zoo and was amazed at the quality. This lens is also amazingly light. I believe it is an underrated lens in the Fuji lineup with an unbelievable cost to value ratio. I hope fuji continues to develop these light affordable lenses. If you would like to see the photos I took they are posted here https://joshmoss.exposure.co/nc-zoo ”
