    Personal gear review

    Hi Tili ;) I think You forget in Your thoughts about one super important thing, which is color science. Fuji colors are in my opinion no#1 in industry when it comes to portrait photography (skin tones are just perfect in any film sim) With Fuji RAW files post process/editing is very easy and...

    I took 73$ lens, and shoot some portraits

    Thank You all for kind words! Yeah, because of the wind at some point flash + tripod almost drop into the sea, but I manage to grab it in last second - it was close haha! 😅 To diffuse flash I'm using Godox 80x80cm softbox

    I took 73$ lens, and shoot some portraits

    Stars of the show: humble TTArtisan 35/1.4 and my wife Anna 😁 I would say, rendering is not that bad as for 73$ lens I guess? And.. im starting to like using manual focusing during photo shoot. It makes whole shooting experience more immersive, and tactile. Interesting. Anyway, enjoy! 1) 2)...

    Micro 4/3 Vacation 2023 - Greece and a cruise

    davidzvi I do admit, that differences in colors between any camera system are very subtle, but in my case it's mostly about skin tones, and this is area where changes are most visible and crucial for me. Isn't it that we all chase and seek for those subtle differences in final output of our...

    Fuji Voigtlander NOKTON 35mm f/0.9

    Wow, it is first time I hear that Mitakon lenses can take some damage by just using them. There is common opinion on internet, that fully manual lenses are basically indestructible 😅 (very, very well made - no AF motors etc) But I will take Your words for granted, it will only ensure me to...

    Micro 4/3 Vacation 2023 - Greece and a cruise

    Micro 4/3 Vacation 2023 - Greece and a cruise

    Very nice shots indeed :) I'm surprised that You took both Olympus 8-25/4 pro and 12-100/4 pro lenses with You. Isn't that their focal lengths overlaps itself?

    Fuji Voigtlander NOKTON 35mm f/0.9

    Hard to not agree with everything You wrote, Mitakon 35/0.95 is very strong competition for CV 35/0.9, but when I would pick up one premium manual lens for my Fuji camera, I would always choose Voigtlander lenses simply because they have full electronic communication with the camera - at least...

    Workflow revisited

    Hi doobs :) I think You complicate Your post process for no particular reason when it comes to final result (final image) Unless You working with thousands of photos per week, then I don't understand such workflow procedure 😏

    Fuji Favorite Fuji X 1C1L walkabout?

    I do agree, that 16-80mm (24-120mm in FF) is great range for travel photography, but imho IQ from XF 16-80/4 is good enough for printing in max 15x23cm @300 dpi (maybe 20x30cm) If You want to print on larger paper, Tamron 17-70/2.8 has way more resolution (especially in corners) :)

First of all, I will write down without any hesitation, that this is one of the best (if not...

    Fuji Viltrox 27mm 1.2 Pro

    Hi Bobby :) Perhaps these YT videos will help You to get an idea, what is like to shoot in 40mm FL: For me 40mm has quite interesting perspective. Although I do already own stellar XF 23/1.4 R WR LM, which as You can see gives very similar results, so it is hard for me to justify buying...

    Fuji Your Fuji photo editor of choice?

    I was Lightroom user for many years, but after I switch from Canon to Fuji I did try Capture One. Well.. it not took me long, to see how much potential there is in this software. Capture One's engine is just superior in controlling highlight than LR, and C1 is way more precise and advanced in...
