    The Ring of Power

    Thank you for sharing this shoot with us! I really enjoyed seeing the images and I really like the look and the storyboarding. I did not get a chance to look at the print book yet, but am very interested in doing so; I have been trying to find a good way to represent a storyline, or even just a...

    The Tao of Small Sensors

    I am so happy to find this thread! I have been so caught up lately in trying to make sure that I have the right APS-C kit that I had forgotten how much I absolutely love shooting my X20! Even more so, I think I just might pull out the old Sony DSC-W290 which has given me some of my absolute...

    Fuji Bad copy, or just me?

    Well, so much for that idea...

    Fuji Bad copy, or just me?

    If I remember correctly this lens was made by a few different manufacturers and had a couple of different variants over its lifespan and I have heard that there can be sizeable difference in IQ based on where the lens was manufactured. There is a website that outlines the differences between...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Well, surprisingly, my Zeiss 16-70mm came in today! I wasn't able to pick it up until late so not mush use yet aside from shots of my grouchy old cat. She wasn't happy about it, but she made a good enough model for low light, ISO 1600 shots. So far, I am very excited about it! I am hoping that...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Thanks Ray! Learning about the combination of exaggerated or inflated ISO numbers as well as noise at higher ISO levels, which is at least on par with the competition, really help to make me feel less emboldened to make a change from Sony over to Fuji. During the last couple of days I have...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Thank you all for your input and help!!! I think that I have decided to stick with my a6000 and wait a bit longer for the Zeiss 16-70 to come in. I will probably sell off the A-Mount lenses that I can, or already have replaced. I will keep my LA-E2 for future capability as well as my Sony...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Zx7dave thanks! I had been hearing that there was less noise at higher ISO, but had no experience to compare. The sensor in the a6000 does seem to produce manageable noise. The sensor and usability really are the most important (not counting lenses here) tools to make sure that I take pictures...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Thank you for all of this input Ray! If nothing else, you have made me realize that Fuji may not be this absolute perfect, "Holy Grail" of systems for me. The fact that Fuji has it's own issues that may, in the most general terms, be similar to what I experienced with my NEX 6 helps me realize...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Pniev, that is the reason why I reached out on this forum instead of to TalkeMount or on FujiXspot; I knew I would get really good, unbiased input because I was not reaching out on a specific system forum! This has been such great advice from everyone and is exactly what I need! My AD does...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Nic, I really hadn't thought of the option to pic up a second-hand X-E1 (or even and X-E2 after a bit of time passes) with the 18-55. I think that I could probably keep on the path that I am on, and then pick up a Fuji X-E1 or 2 later on. The cost of doing that will probably work out to be...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Demiro you are exactly right: it is not final, I can always change and it is just an issue of $'s which can be planned for an mitigated so that it becomes less of an issue. The other key point is that is "a reasonable fee for the lack of ability to make a choice and stick with it". Brilliant...

    Sony Trying to make a decision is too difficult

    Thanks Ray! I had not heard about so many QC issues with Fuji. I think that is because I was too busy being frustrated with AF point issues on my NEX 6 (which have now been resolved with a factory reset after the latest update) and not paying attention to Fuji concerns. I think I felt like I...
