har?? you mean just my posts the words appear small? i use default size

what about now

really? i see everyone's words the same size as mine ..that "what about now" is larger than everyone else's and i put the font size to large haha.

btw anyone can explain why the ef-x20 is 2x the price of the ef-20? i tried both at YL and i bought the EF-20 just coz its able to bounce. but admittedly the ef-x20 looks nicer on the x-pro 1 + the old fashioned dials make it look quite ngam with the x series dials haha

yes should be can, but only full manual no TTL i believe..

haha enjoy bro. if the 18 f2 is nice, imagine 35 1.4

hmm..had my first opportunity to actually use my X-Pro 1 + 35mm + 8mm fisheye + EF-20..camera performed pretty well actually, but a little disappointed with the AF in lowlight condition (even with the AF assist light on)

the AF when its dark (not pitch black dark, like dim restaurant lights) is pretty bad. its slow + it doesn't AF very well. takes 2-3 tries sometimes to get it right. and I had 3 or 4 shots out of 100 that is OOF.

also, the EF-20 is surprisingly powerful! it lights up my subjects really well (sometimes a little too well....). i only wish that flash can be rotated like the 580EXII so I can bounce up even when I'm taking portrait shots.

the 35mm is just..too sharp lol..it's weird, I guess, like "SHARP ALSO COMPLAIN, NOT SHARP ALSO COMPLAIN" but I take some shots with 1/60 - 1/120(i think) F4 ISO800 with the flash, the subjects' hair (especially girls) become very....pixelated? it's like when a photo is too sharp it becomes like that..(without +sharp PP and without crop)

other than that, I think the other issue I had was lack of space haha. with the 35mm it's really tough to get more than 6 ppl in a shot comfortably.

ya bro when its spot on the photos are very good. even with f/1.4 the photos are actually quite sharp. and yes, lens is already updated when i bought and i updated the body to 3. something

i will post some photos here in awhile..i think so far i've only seen 1 lens with the manual focus distance indicator, which is the 23mm f/1.4..hmm maybe its just me but sometimes it takes 2-3 tries to get the focus and some of the shots are totally oof

continuous and tracking sounds like ai servo mode haha..does when u half press does it keep tracking the subject? or even without half pressing it still tracks the subject

ya bro but i'm not getting the 23mm coz i think its faster AF haha..i wanna get it coz of the wider length with the 1.4..i think the performance should be more or less the same with the 35mm..

oh lol i dunno leh..i just found out about that mode haha. the C right? quite weird also..it tracks but when half press the shutter it stops tracking and focus locks..

must...resists....x100s.....

i think is not just this year..is all the stock of xm1 and xe2 (i think) this year that aren't sold are all given free 18mm f/2 by fuji to help the sales..i was talking with the seller who sold to me..i dunno if is until end of this year but i think not coz he told me he receive stock for 1 18mm f/2 per body already..

anyway, i think that if right now u have enough money to buy (and you really really want to buy), just go ahead and buy it now coz of the promotion..the 18mm cost almost 1.7k alone, u can sell it for 1k also u untung..

haha bro..try post on ftz oso..normally ftz will get quicker response if u sell good price..if u sell 2k for 70-200 is hard to sell leh bro..i sell 1.6k also difficult to sell..

is Malaysia Free Trade Zone (sorry ar LYN mod pls don't ban me lol).. normally most of my stuff gets sold here but I sold one or two things there too..just post your ad its free, also can see a lot of people selling their stuff there..in lyn the market is actually better la honestly, got more people here + more trustworthy than FTZ..and u go there normally u will see the same stuff for sale here too but sometimes can find other deals there as its easier to post there and ppl will sms u

. the kotak inside not so premium feel even with the premium price tag . the 35mm kotak so nice leh, the 23mm the kotak inside like to pack egg 1 lol. like those carton of 8 eggs, its very similar. with my 35 they give 1 nice hard case box inside the lens box..

btw this lens quite noisy the focus lol, more or less the same speed as the 35 but a bit noisier. but i like coz the lens barrel won't come out while focusing like the 35

haha..wait xpro2 come out i sell cheap to you..if i like the new body la

1/220 f/2.8 ISO640


1/240 f/1.4 ISO640

yeah haha. damn sharp! very pleased with the results. actually I don't know about that, i tried switching the body to macro but its like the same only lol. I tried moving closer than the MFD after switching to macro mode it cannot focus edi..unless i got macro wrong la haha..

af and everything works ok? but bro, if you attach EOS lens not heavy meh lol. cannot pick up the camera just by holding the body later the connection break
