  1. As a FUJIFILM X user for my professional work, I'm interested in owning a fuji medium format. However, been researching online for quite some time now but never been blown away by the quality it produce. No offense, but a 35mm tends to be better in my opinion. But looking at mamiya rb67 , rz67, 645, pentax 67, pentax 645... photos are superb! specially if used by good photographers....
  2. Since we have 30 sec exposure built in in our EF camera... I wonder why it is rare to see long exposure shots using this camera ?
  3. I don't think that battery should be an issue. Always bring spare or fresh ones. I assume we all have camera bag or case ? It wont hurt to bring spare batteries. In 5d mk2 or 1ds camera, I shoot 400 to 600 images for 1 battery charge. That includes peeping and checking photos on LCD. On EOS film, how many shots do we have ? 36 ? 72? 108 ? Are we consuming 1000 shots in one go to drain the battery ? My point is, there's something special about film camera's. Particularly using the analog ones. But in my opinion, EOS cameras are superior when partnered with moderns lenses. Imagine this, if you have to take portraits of your 4 yr old daughter while walking on the beach with a Portra 400 or Fujifilm 400h film on EOS 3 with EF 135 F2L lens :) How sweet to have an autofocus at f2 aperture. isn't it ?
  4. How do you compose and recompose on canon EF with 50 1.8 FL lens ?
  5. I have both canon EF aka Black Beauty and EOS 55. While it's nice to use the EF, I think the EOS system is superior in terms of making image quality. What I mean is, pair EOS with current Canon L or Sigma Art primes and you will be blown away by the results. I'm not saying EF wont produce good photos... but with EOS, it makes everything a lot sweeter. It's hard to miss anything like modern DSLR. Honestly, using EF for me is more on the nostalgic feel of using film camera and that's it.
  6. you need batteries for 1 to 30 sec exposure... 1 -1000 is mechanical
