Yeah after using one on the RX1 that's about exactly what I figured it'd look like on the X100 series.... :D Sorry I didn't see your message sooner, I would have tried to talk you out of it. For some reason I didn't get an email notification so I didn't see your reply to this thread.

No, I never tried it, and I sold the RX1 and Hoocap quite some time ago. I'm almost positive it would not fit on the X100 series from what I remember of the size shape and mount though.

You might look at Cotton Carrier also. I actually have the StrapShot model, though I have never used it. I picked up a Peak Design Capture clip shortly after the StrapShot, and the Capture clip won out for me due to the better versatility. I particularly appreciate the fact that the Capture...

To get the most out of processing X-Trans files with Photoshop or Lightroom the main caveat seems to be unusual sharpening settings being required compared to other formats. Other than that I've had no problem getting satisfactory results in terms of color, sharpness, clarity, contrast, etc. As...

Long story but the short version is I ultimately prefer smaller gear, and rangefinders in particular. Since my daughter was born a couple years ago I'm also simply not doing nearly as much of the type of shooting I was using my Nikon gear for (events and portraits with artificial lighting). I...

Haha, nice! :thumbup:

This would be a tough question for anybody else to answer but you ultimately... how do you shoot with your Nikon kit? I'm also a Nikon shooter FWIW... but currently in process of selling off all my Nikon gear and getting back into Fuji X (for the third time) though :D Using Nikon for travel...

That trumpet shot is awesome!

I suppose that's partially true, assuming the SL is a marked improvement over the A7 series in that regard (I haven't looked for test results of M lenses on the SL, since I wasn't in the market). Personally I didn't have any problems and certainly not any "phenomenal smearing" with any of my M...

I find the SL interesting and I hope it's a success for Leica (anything that keeps them making cameras and lenses!). But at least for me I have a hard time envisioning buying one to use with M lenses currently, when you can get a Sony A7 body for a fraction of the cost and get equivalent or...

Finally got myself a GR... I never thought I'd be interested in one but it's turned out to be the greatest thing to happen to my photography in a long time. It fits what I wanted it for right now like a glove, and having a pocketable P&S with great image quality has completely re-inspired my...

I know exactly what you mean Amin. I've been finding myself shooting progressively more film for the same reasons, though I definitely don't see myself dropping digital any time soon. I just shipped out 10+ rolls of 120 and 35mm out to RPL last week, and I've got 5 more sitting here ready for...

I'm mostly just teasing you because I remembered everything you said about the RX1 in your initial thoughts about it when I saw the Q announcement. I kid you not, the first thing I thought when I read the release was "geez, that sounds like it was designed to Ray's exact specifications! FF...

Ray, I think you doth protest too much... I have a feeling I'm going to log in several months down the line and you'll have a Q in your hands somehow anyway - hahah. :D The depreciation factor on the Q should be interesting. The RX1 pricing took a nose dive despite it being a well loved and...

I've read a few reviews and it seems as though Leica's made a really great camera with the Q ... a worthy followup to the RX1 which itself is a fantastic camera. What will be most interesting to me is whether Sony follows this with an RX2 with a built-in EVF or something along those lines...
