Congratz rclxms.gif For landscape, I think you will love it. I am happy you can get it for RM928. Though I paid RM1339, but I'd have missed so many nice milkway shots if I wait till now....so, no regret. sweat.gif Look forward to your spam. thumbup.gif

I am thinking to shoot wide open too for some of the subjects, I hope it won't disappoint me but for the price I'm paying, worth for it. biggrin.gif

Even wide opened is easy to shoot because everything is in focus especially landscape for such a wide lens. Unless you decide to do portrait inclusive of the landscape as the background, then you might want to stop down the aperture to get both your subject and background in focus.As regards, MF, I have to be honest, it needs a bit of getting used to. Even though everything is in focus, but when I press the shuttle release half way, I still expect to hear the beep sound for focus confirmation. When it doesnt, then I will realise it is my sweet little MF 12mm. sweat.gif

Read again and for last time im no sony fan. I dont even want sony to go FF route. Fuji is beautiful and i applaud their decision to stick with apsc. Just that when you make sensor size comparison, dont say its the same lah.
*
For this, I agreed with DaddyO, as regards the sensor size, quick and simple, they are not the same, though in some area the difference are negligible.. I've seen the Zack Arias video on youtube which he talked about sensor as well. I think the area where FF vs apsc is neglegible is term of sharpness. I've done a simple test myself, comparing my 24mp apsc(sony a6000) shot against my friend's FF 24mp(Sony A7) shot of the exact same scene with the same settings. The sharpness different can only be seen after I enlarged both photos to 100% on capture one express. As regards low light performance, it can be quite significant. I remember watching a video on youtube comparing Sony a6000 vs Canon 5d mark III video performance with different iso settings. While I love my sony a6000, I have to admit that the noise level is atleast 1 to 2 stop better on canon 5d mark iii,( a 2 years older tech camera compared to my 6K).

Just like many of you here, I like the vintage look of fujis, absolutely love the manual dial and the best kit lens 18-55 f2.8-4 any company has to offer. thumbup.gif And the fantastic OOC jpeg quality.

Lazada is pretty reliable for me actually. To be fair la. All my purchases were satisfactory and some were far good. Made countless of orders through out the year and this time it's the worst.

I will agree on 1, 3 and probably 4. tongue.gif

Fruitie, I also feel sorry for you. I for one, also waiting for you to receive your 12mm so u can do a unboxing video of it.....are you still in pursue of it, or you've given up? hmm.gif

How is it? You like it? brows.gif

To be honest, while I've this lens for several months now, but only recently I realized it full potential. I got it initially for shooting milkway, so never really shoot much outside of that realm until recently. Few nights ago, out of the blue, I felt like shooting my miniature Mr.Bean bear with wide open F stop. Once the shot was taken, I zoomed into his eye on the camera screen. It was sharp even I had zoomed in max. icon_idea.gif

I wish I can travel more like you do, so can put this lens to good use. sweat.gif

I like it but I need time to get familiarize with it as I have not owned any non-AF lens before until Sammy 12mm came into my world. laugh.gif
I also seldom travel. Last travel was back in April...

Same here. The first MF lens I had was my father's Yashica 35-70mm ML lens. My whole family was very surprised my father's 1986 purchase (sitting now in the closet waiting for it to rot) can still function on my camera with an dumb adapter (thanks for mirrorless design). rclxms.gif

Going back to the sammy, do you think it's heavy for it's size? Whenever I held it up or attached it to my camera, I can't helped but feeling that....or is it just me? And focus ring quite stiff.... dry.gif

woonsc If you can save up a bit more, I'd suggest you to get the XT10 with the 18-55mm f2.8-4 kit lens. Best kit lens out there. nod.gif

If XT-2 came with fully articulated touchscreen, I'd be very tempted to switch. But at the moment, quite heavily invested in E mount. So, I can only hope and dream Sony will released a6300 successor with that. If XT-3 comes with a touchscreen, I might consider the jump icon_idea.gif

By the way, seems like you don't use telephoto much. If that is the case, I think your collection should be quite complete.....or perhaps a fisheye....but then again, not available in X mount.... shakehead.gif

I don't use one but planning to get the Nissin i40 for it's size and feature that suits me best. I heard it's quite good and has the high speed sync (but no TTL)

Yeah, it's a bummer not to have the TTL on fuji version...I wondered why....else it's a great little flash (very powderful for the size) thumbup.gif And I'm loving it...

Wondering if anyone got the i60A if it has TTL function for fujis...

The only time I bring 2 camera is when I take photos for event, I try to limit bringing to many gear, because not all is needed, I would aim for 14mm/12mm + 23mm + 56mm or 16mm + 35mm + 90mm setup. If I wanted to challenge myself, just bring the x100t onlysmile.gif

Tried it, very painful experience. Even fruitimus Prime said I was dumb dumb to do so... laugh.gif

By the way, mine was X100s. bangwall.gif
