anthea50 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 <p>Hi everyone! I also really like The Prize and End of Fall. My shots this week are of a bunch of spring onions that I bought to add to home made potato salad. Decided to give the 60mm macro lens a bit of a try out on the E-M1.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich B NYC Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 <p>Thanks for the feedback. The 23mm is quickly becoming my favorite Fuji prime. Then again, I always liked the 35mm perspective on film.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanford Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 <p>Richard, as much as I complain about the foibles and quirks of my XE1 you can't deny the quality, even at ISO 6400. I may just add a telephoto zoom at some point to complete the system. XE1 kits are a relative bargain right now.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich B NYC Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 <p>Sanford,<br> Funny you should mention the tele-zoom. I purchased the 55-200 Fujinon a few days ago but haven't had a chance to give it a workout yet.<br> As for high ISO, the X-E1 eats my Nikon D300's lunch at any ISO over 400. Amazing improvement in technology. Maybe the newer Nikons are better, but I don't plan on going down that road.<br> The only issue I have with the X-E1 is its focusing speed. Even with the current firmware, it's not up to par as far as I'm concerned. I 've been able to deal with it, but I see another Fujifilm body in my future.<br> Rich</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanford Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 <p>Richard, will be looking forward to samples. I also have a D300. There is a camera that instantly obtains focus and never misses. The XE1 makes you a more deliberate, patient photographer out of necessity. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lex_jenkins Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 <p>Technically outside this week's batch, taken on the 9th, but what the heck, it's the first chance I've had to take any new photos in a few weeks. We had a rare bit of morning fog Tuesday morning. This was the first thing I saw while walking around my neighborhood. A bunch of recliners lined up outside our neighborhood fire station. Not sure if they were cleaning out the lounge or getting rid of 'em - the chairs were gone a few hours later.</p> <p>Sorta reminded me of an invisible ocean liner in the fog, or jet in the clouds.<br> <img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/17922898-lg.jpg" alt="DSCF3483_20141209_LR" width="667" height="1000" border="0" /><br /><img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/17922894-md.jpg" alt="DSCF3493_20141209_LR" width="680" height="453" border="0" /><br> Fudgie X-A1 w/ 16-50 kitzoom.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich B NYC Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 <p>Sanford,<br> I have to agree about AF on the D300. I don't recall any time that it didn't hit focus, no matter the lens used. AF is the only reason that I still have a (rather small these days) Nikon kit.<br> That said, I don't think that I've ever lost a shot due to the rather sluggish focusing on the X-E1. Maybe it's just the type of photography that I do with it. When I know I'll be shooting my grandkids, I just grab the Nikon. Just a matter of picking the right tool.<br> I haven't had the opportunity to really work with an X-T1 yet, but if it can come close to the D300 in the AF department, my Nikon kit goes up for sale.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
