The size bit huge and heavy compare other xf hmm.gif (but still okay for me, even Nikkor 70-200 VR2 before) laugh.gif
AF speed, accurate, and image quality was great, but bokeh some stiff can found.

hmm.the bokeh isnt really that good,as seen in the sample below.it looks like it struggles with leaf pattern and highlight.

and as compared to nikon 70-200mm f4 ,its equivalance,the bokeh is much better IMO

Just got the X-T1 and 23 1.4 from Mr.Oss few days ago, and loved it.

Did some playing around with it and my gf's X-E2. I wasn't particularly happy with the Jpeg SOOC sharpness, so went and shot RAW + JPEG to do some comparison. I know jpeg are compressed and lossy etc, but wasn't expecting that much difference in sharpness between them. Am I expecting too much from fuji's jpeg? Tried with both 23 1.4 at wide open and 10-24 at f 7.1. I'm trying to minimize raw since I really like how fuji process their jpegs. Oh and at 50-100% zoom, they were a bit like oil painting/watercolor effect, especially on green foliage. The effects were greater in the X-E2 than X-T1

Anyone had similar experience?

My in camera settings were
NR: -2
Sharpening: -2
Colour: +1
DR: 400
shot in full manual

as far as i know,Photo Ninja has the best rendering Fuji RAW,to avoid water color effect

as i read from here :

https://photographylife.com/reviews/fuji-x-t1/3

and Lightroom isnt that good rendering fuji RAW file

It will have a diff becoz studio photography I finally can see, xm1  is totally black when taking with flash.. No function to disable preview...

I plan to sell xm1 if xt1 reach my hand... Haha

35mm is a very good lens,indoor potrait will be sweet

i have check market price, like xe2 price didnt drop much(maybe 100-200) since it launch....not like sony which drop every month...sweat
fuji seems have a steady price...

hmm..this might trigger me to get x-t1 as im expecting xt1 to drop to below 3k once xt2/xpro2 released .haha

I agree with you since mirrorless is supposed to be light.
Adding the 16-55 makes the camera as heavy as semi pro dslr.
XF56 APD is waiting for you then .
That creamy bokeh tongue.gif

xf 56mm already good enough brows.gif

no need to spend extra around rm1600 just for the slight creamier bokeh

comparison between the 2 lens

shocking.gif shocking.gif

so big...

i think the lens suits better for potrait photographer

the lens kinda negate the purpose of using mirrorless cam : being light and portable

im curious how does it compares to other mirrorless 24-70 equivalent lens : samsung 16-50,olympus 12-40mm, (in term of size)

but it does lighter than dslr equivalent of 24-70.1.1kg vs 1.43g on d7100 with nikon 17-50mm 2.8 mounted

yet the difference quite negligible

as i read from here

I'm impressed with the IQ of 16-55.
But due to lack of OIS, I don't think it suits me since my hand is not that steady sometimes.
Wide aperture prime will definitely win in low light compared to 16-55.  hmm.gif
*
plus the weight sommore .definitely wont be holding it steadily in low light for jerky hand like me.for sure need OIS laugh.gif

as it's only f2.8

how i wish Fuji would be as innovative as Samsung like the samsung 16-50mm f2-2.8 with OIS .shoud've been perfect to me

anyone having problems with fuji x-100s focusing sometimes its abit slow but still quite ok compared to 100, anyone played with the x-100t?

the x100t is faster than x100s.but not that significant (in low light)

the lx100 so fast. how i wish fujfilm AF as good as Panasonic particularly in low light

All taken with the 56mm F1.2 lens - very simple lens to use haha. Aperture just set to 1.2, and control the DOF by foot laugh.gif

Congrats to the newly-wed  wub.gif  wub.gif

Maybe its because of the crowdedness, the Fujifilm performed better than my Nikon@24-70mm F2.8 that day =.= Not enough bokeh I suppose  laugh.gif
I was very doubtful that I won't use the 56mm F1.2 lens much and wanted to swap with a 23mm F1.4, but I guess I don't wanna do that anymore, the lens is simply awesome!  wub.gif

85mm is a perfect focal length for wedding i guess biggrin.gif

btw is it x-t1 capable of professional use? hmm.gif

i thought it was considered okay, kinda cheap already.

but if you have a little more patience, maybe you can find it on lazada when they have storewide + maybank/cimb/mastercard sales. then would be cheaper than this price. but if you need it, i thought it was okay.

how much is the discount if i buy using cimb? hmm.gif
