For someone who is also eyeing on the XH1, I saw the latest shopee pricing is at RM4.3k.

Yeap, When I was with Sony a6000, I told myself, my next camera must have touchscreen. After I switched to XT20, I told myself, my next camera must have IBIS.

Yeah, even the old manual lens.




By the way, just got this speedbooster today. Cheap alternative to the expensive XF56mm.

Bro, kldslr selling xh1 for rm5270 with battery grip. And the offer said, rm1000 online cash back. If it is true, then it only cost rm4270 after the cashback which is an awesome deal. And basically, you got the grip for free.

Yeah, I only found out myself after I've posted here.

It is true that the grip can make our camera body look more pro. But I agreed with what lerijiso said about IBIS draining the battery faster than other non IBIS body. On top of that, if you shot in portrait orientation a lot, the grip can be a good investment. Having said that, RM1K plus for a grip is really a big put off.....I wonder if meike make grip for XH1....I think they do for XT2

Strange that I don't have this problems...

Kldslr.com ssems to have promo on the xf35f14 and xf56f12. Anyone took advantage of that?

XF35F1.4 is RM1880 and XF56F1.2 is RM2980 (with RM25 discount on shopee app)

Woh nice, even cheaper than my purchases which was 2955 after discount coupon..

If the viltrox ever release the 56mm, it may makes me cry as I'm still second guessing my decision after I got the xf56 about 3 weeks ago..yes, I still find it hard to swallow the high price tag especially coming from sony apsc...

Samyang 12mm f2, so far so good. very sharp and cheap for the value I'm getting out of this lens.


can do animals like dogs and cats also. Just wish fuji will implement the animal eyes af too.. .

By the way fruitie, one question...ever since you've upgraded from the XT1 to XT3, do you find big difference in the color tones in both camera? The reason why I'm asking this is that some forumer on dpreview on fuji forum stated that he prefer the XT1 colors over the newer generation body like the XT2/XT3. There is even a guy mentioned that, he downgraded from XT3 to XT1 because of that.....which makes me very very curious now...so do you have similar experiences?


85 on apsc too long leh..... . 56 (85mm FF equivalent) seems to be the best balance between bokeh and working distance for outdoor setting. As for indoor, I still prefer the 35mm. This lens really has 'magic' which I'm still yet to see on the 56 if it's true to what people claimed....

That's why I don't dare to update.

Why wanna sell bro? Jumping ship?

I couldn't agreed more. Last year, I brought 4 lenses (35, 18-55, 12 and 50-230) as well to Japan. At first, I really trying hard to force myself using more of the 35, but the Japan street are narrow. In the end, I was using the 18-55 for 95% of the trip. As for the 12, I managed to get about few shots at the Tokyo towers and a beach. With the 50-230, it was a dead weight in my luggage, for the 2 weeks, I didn't even snap a single photo with it.

Serious? I have 3 flashes for my fuji system. Godox tt350, tt685 and tt600. They are all solid flashes from godox and works very well with my XT20

Yeap. The best part is that it can serve as the wireless trigger for my 2 other bigger and more powerful off camera flashes.

I think most if not all fuji X camera can shoot milkyway. What matters more is the right lens for the job.

Thanks.

Very Nice photos as always Tan Choon Mun. Hopefully, this is not too much to ask, it is possible for you to post (perhaps just one of the three) the original before you retouched in Lightroom?

Oh can can. Even just one will do, I would like to see before and after edit of the same shoot if you don't mind sharing....

By the way, how's the 23mm f2? I'm thinking of adding it to my lens collection....but already have 35 and 56, so I'm thinking might be too redundant....And seems like from your flickr page that you also mostly shoot with the 35 and the 56 as well....Perhaps can share your thoughts on the 23mm....?

I'm not a XT100 user, but I handled one before for brief moment. Pairing it with the 50-230, the AF was painfully slow compared to my XT20. I believe it might be same for the other lens. I strongly suggest you top up and go for XT20/30. Or XT20 used.

Thank you TCM for your effort ! Really appreciate it ! As I've mentioned, I'm thinking about the 23mm f1.4 ( will definitely drop the 23mm f2 off my radar since what you've said), do you think it's too close to the 35? Why did you sell the 23mm f1.4? Can share your story bro ?

Hahaah, sounds like similar experience. I also think 23mm not enough bokeh, of course I never used the 23mm f1.4, but I did have a X100F for more than a year. That time, l also didn't like this focal length...but it was quite a few years ago....

I totally agreed that 23mm is much easier to use in narrow space......to counter this, I have the excellent kit lens 18-55. I find that at 23mm, it has a maximum aperture of 3.2, which is not too bad. From time to time, I still get pleasant surprise as to how sharp this "kit lens" can be....Your feedback are really great. Helps a lot in fighting GAS. The 23mm F1.4 is not cheap, will be painful to sell it at a lost especially with current economy.....
