Olympus OM Zuiko 85mm f/2.8 on an X-E2 by Theo Hultberg

X-E2 has Classic Chrome now. That you can't use the review button properly drives me nuts though.

DSCF2280 by Theo Hultberg, on Flickr The Helios 44-2 is known for its swirly bokeh, some of which can be seen in the picture above. There's a lot of variants of the Helios 44, I've read that it's one of the most mass produced lenses in history. It's based on the Zeiss Biotar and was produced...

DSCF2368 by Theo Hultberg DSCF2383 by Theo Hultberg The Industar-69 is a tiny lens, it looks like a toy, but a pretty bad-ass toy. It does not focus to infinity on an X-Mount camera without modification, but there's a very simple fix that is completely reversible. It's got a little bit of...

I see, the view mode button actually does more. How many clicks is it to get from EVF+Sensor mode to showing the most recent photo on an X-T1?

It's not just the lack of a dedicated button for choosing the view mode, I've remapped Fn2 to that, but it's that you have to switch view modes just to be able to use the screen. Unless the view mode button on the other models is something else than I think it is, you still have to press the...

I haven't had my X-E2 for very long yet, but there's one feature I'm really missing and that's being able to press the review button and look at the last photos I've taken while at the same time not having the back screen on all of the time. I've set the camera to the "EVF Only + Sensor"...

Hello, I used to shoot slide film and Tri-X on my Olympus OM-4. Mostly rust and abandoned places – the slide film for the former, grainy black and white for the latter. I kind of gave up on photography when the last lab in town that developed slide film shut down, and my friend got a Canon 5D...

That could explain why I'm getting so different results with different lenses. I've got four old OM lenses, the 35/2, 50/1.8 MC, 85/2 and 135/3.5. The 35 I get good results with most of the time, the 50 is utter rubbish (something I never saw back when), the 85 doesn't seem to play very well...

Anyone else here with an obsession for rust? DSCF0830.jpg by Theo Hultberg, on Flickr DSCF0811.jpg by Theo Hultberg, on Flickr

I haven't had my X-E2 for very long so I haven't really gotten the hang of the focus peaking yet. In many situations it doesn't seem to work, and in other situations I'm not sure what it's telling me. I've had pictures come out completely out of focus when I'm sure that the subject had red...

I see. The red focus peaking on the X-E2 is indeed a step up, but now I've seen a video on YouTube showing Sony's focus peaking and I totally see what you mean.

Could you elaborate on what's different between shooting with adapted lenses on the Sony and the Fuji? Does the Sony handle adapted lenses differently, or is it something else?
