    which macro lens to get?

    Finally made my way down to Fujifilm Studio to buy and purchase the macro extension tube. Realized after trying, the MCEX-11 suits my needs better too. The MCEX-16 requires the lens to be almost right up to the subject. Anyway I tried my hand at taking these 2 small figurines in my house with...

    Fujifilm X100S

    I use it when shooting flowers and plants at close-up in broad daylight. Without the electronic shutter, tends to be over-exposed but I don't think I use the feature often enough too!

    Fujifilm X100T Lens Cap On or Off?

    Thank you to everyone who suggested solutions in this thread! My B+W filters arrived too. Initially I thought I would ditch the lens hood that came with the JJC set, but after fitting the filter on, I decided it would be better to use the hood as the filter is not recessed. Works well so far and...

    Raw processing and real life dynamic range of the xtrans sensor?

    Sorry to hijack this thread, but I'm thinking of trying my hand at shooting RAW and doing some manual adjustments. For a hobbyist photographer, what is the recommended workflow? Would it be Adobe Lightroom or will the Silkypix convertor that came with the camera work fine? Thank you!

    Which one should i get? Fujifilm XT1 or sony a7ii?

    Hi thank you and I appreciate your reply which pointed out several things I did not know about Sony cameras :D I have always thought that the Sony RX and Alpha series are spectacular cameras. Still hope to own them one day when my budget allows for it and when they have good promotions / new...

    Fujifilm X100T Lens Cap On or Off?

    For anyone who is interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/JJC-Lens-Hood-Adapter-Ring-LH-JX100II-Silver-for-Fuji-Fujifilm-X100-X100S-X100T-/321366646646 I am intending to use only the filter adaptor when my filters arrive. But the hood looks good too, does not protrude and affect the viewfinder.

    Fujifilm X100T Lens Cap On or Off?

    So happy! My JJC LH-JX100II lens hood and filter thread just came from eBay! Costs a fraction of the Fujifilm version, and to my surprise, even the lens cap fits!

    Fujifilm X-T1 Graphite Silver Thread

    I'm looking for an extra one too. Just realized that the silver hot shoe cover fits and complements the look of the silver X100T. But do you find the hot shoe cover to be a tad loose on the XT-1? I usually put my camera in the bag lens pointing downwards, sometimes I end up sliding the cover out...

    You're welcome! I haven't found a use for it yet though, although it could be useful in probably studio settings.

    XE-2 issue....

    Think it shows you the depth of field at a particular aperture. For instance, which part of the photo will be in focus and which part will be blurry based on the current aperture settings.

    Which one should i get? Fujifilm XT1 or sony a7ii?

    kei1309, if you disagree with what I have written or think the thread starter should choose the Sony over the Fujifilm, you are welcome to post your own list of reasons instead of resorting to (and stooping so low as to) make personal attacks.

    Which one should i get? Fujifilm XT1 or sony a7ii?

    Now now... Who is taking it personally here by calling names and offering uncalled for advice such as "you should work on your composition", when the point of posting the link wasn't to ask for critiques? :) Also, what do I have to be "not honest" about? I have mentioned that those were my...

    Fujifilm X-T1 Graphite Silver Thread

    My US$3.25 lens hood just arrived from eBay. All metal construction and works great! Protrudes 2cm only compared to 6.6cm at longest point on the plastic Fujifilm hood.
