Fuji The Official, International, Multi Dimensional, X100 Street Thread.

Straus Park, NYC

This park is named after an old couple that died on the Titanic and had lived near where this part now is.

Two more. I'm gonna try to dribble these out a couple at a time instead of loading waaaay too many into one or two posts all at once.

iso 2500, f2, 1/80 - auto iso, aperture priority

iso 3200, f8, 1/56 - I should have opened the aperture up for this shot - I'd bee in sunlight and this was a very shaded and dark spot. The camera would have brought the ISO down and eventually the shutter speed up. But it coped! 3200 is so damn good on this camera I just haven't been worrying about it.
 
Since the X100 is a new tool, some of us like to know details like f-stops, shutter speeds, and especially ISO. I know it is a little extra trouble to include these details, but it is a suggestion. I got lazy and left it off the last one I put up. :redface:

I've added mine above.

I'm generally shooting in auto ISO and usually aperture priority, but sometimes switch over to shutter priority. Here's one in shutter priority, going for the motion blur. At 1/8, the camera came back with iso 400 and f3.2.

Back out today for some more tries. I have to discard more than I use. But people are endlessly fascinating, and the big city shows it all. There is no place like New York, but I would not want to live here.
 
I'm with you, Dan, especially since we are all in pretty much the same boat with learning how this new camera works.

Ray - very interesting image the way it's caught the people in stride, both expression wise and everything else. Like the choice of the rough feeling in your tones, and details, too. Hot stuff!

P.S. Dan, I was in such a hurry that I missed this one of yours - a snap of a snapper en cell phone - great juxtaposition between the past and the always with us present!
 
Serious Conversation on the steps of the Cathedral of St. John, NYC

The warm tones of the late afternoon sun on the Cathedral were getting lost in a B&W conversion, so I left this one in glorious color. A 100% enlarged look (of the original file) at the couple shows some serious facial expression, not to mention the fine resolution of the X100 lens.
 
I believe they were unaware. In that environment everyone seems to have a camera pointed at the cathedral. If a person did not want to be in a photo they should stay off those steps, that's for sure. I may be in some people's photos as a result of my visit! :D
