    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Gentlemen, Thank you very much for the effort you spent trying/experimenting/discovering if HSS will work with our camera, highly appreciated. I hope someday Fuji will consider this feature to be added to our system. Jenna

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Jloden, Yes Mr. Jloden that is what I've been trying to do with the XE-1. Just like what the Canon/Nikon can do. Take a picture in a very sunny condition using flash set on HSS mode. I was able to do it from a borrowed Canon 20D camera with 580EX. It was a very sunny condition, my subject...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Taz, Thank you very much for the test you did, highly appreciated! So if we can set the speed to 1/300 it will still be good? When I did my test I set the 580EX to manual mode full power and I got an acceptable result. I will try again just to make sure. Again my sincere thanks Mr. Taz :)...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Mr Romi.gilles, Please don't get me wrong and I apologize if you will take my questions/inquiries negatively, It is not my intention. Did you ever try using the HSS on DSLR? Can you please let me know when and in what condition of the day did you try your HSS on your DSLR? Will you please let...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi everyone, I was able to borrow a Canon 580EX, Metz and a Yongnou YN 560 III triggered by RF 602 and I did a little trial (off camera flash). HSS didn't really work with XE-1 like in the DSLR but if you set the speedlites in manual mode (full power) I was able to get a decent exposure at...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    HSS on XE-1 Hi Mr. Romi.qilles, I understand that XE-1 doesn't have the HSS feature, that is the main reason why we are trying to explore all the possibilities like I mentioned on my previous post and to expand the capabilities of our camera. If just in case we found a way by doing some...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Rico, Hope we have some members that still have their DSLR (Nikon/Canon) with speedlites capable of doing the HSS so they could do some experimentation. I think to be able to do this we have to trigger the flash unit with something that will not affect the camera settings, maybe a radio...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Romi.qilles, I understand that XE-1 flash sync is only at 1/160s and it doesn't have the HSS feature. I am just trying to explore all the possibilities of high speed sync on XE-1 by using a 580EX speedlite capable of HSS that can be triggered by a cable mounted on XE-1 hotshoe. Hope those...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Rico, Can you please educate me more on how the HSS work? I did some research and I know already the flash sync and shutter relation on standard flash mode. On Canon system, there's nothing to set on the camera for HSS, all you need to do is to turn ON the HSS on the flash (580EX). Does it...

    Fuji HSS or high speed sync

    Hi Rico, Is high speed sync possible with XE-1 (in manual operation) using electronic flash trigger mounted on the hotshoe of the camera to fire speedlites capable of HSS like the Canon 580EX or Nikon? If this is possible it will be a good way to do a fill-in flash photography in a very...

    Fuji re:xe-1 body and 18-55 lens firmware update

    Hi Rico, Please don't get me wrong that I am into video or something. My knowhow in photography is very limited that is why I tested the camera's video feature in AF only. I just did a little test and report my findings after reading your posting "If you are doing video with the kit zoom lens...

    Fuji re:xe-1 body and 18-55 lens firmware update

    Hi Rico, I am not really into video but it's good to have a little know how on how to do it on our camera. I did a several test on different condition using the 18-55 and still the AF was horrible, it keeps hunting focus! The video color/images XE-1 produces was outstanding! XE-1 will be a...

    Fuji re:xe-1 body and 18-55 lens firmware update

    Hi Rico, First of all thank you for accepting me to your FujiXspot forum. I just like to ask if you notice any significant changes (aside from focus peaking) after updating to the latest firmware of the XE-1 body and the 18-55 lens? I know Fuji is focus on stills photography but is there...

    GAS GAS Explosion vs. Reality

    Mmmmm I just succumbed to the K-01 when a local store reduced the body only to 299. I mean really, how could one resist a body so cheap that will take my glorious but dust collecting old Takamaurs and my lensbaby. Have had the little black brick for a few days and am really enjoying it.

    Advice on street photography in London?

    The other places that are lovely to photograph if you get the opportunity are Glencoe and Rannoch Moore. But given you only have a few days, it might be difficult to fit in. I have been to Scotland twice, bth times for a four week period and dont feel I have even begun to experience what the...

    Advice on street photography in London?

    Not so much a must shoot, as a must visit. You cannot go to Inverness and not visit Culloden. I would suggest giving the visitor centre a miss and go straight out to the battle field and spend several hours simply wandering the moor and take in what occurred on 16/04/1746. This was a battle...

    Superzoom Olympus SP-820UZ Ultra Zoom announced

    it really does remove models from consideration by serious enthusiasts. If they are trying to market to the serious enthusiast, they really need to focus on what features this group require.

    Superzoom Olympus SP-820UZ Ultra Zoom announced

    that is an impressive range if it delivers on image quality. Just had a quick look at specs, it does not appear to have a filter thread. Why do manufacturers provide models like these without the capacity to use filters.

    Hello from Melbourne

    Thank you Heather. I spent four weeks in Scotland in 2006 and again in 2007. It is a truly beautiful country and somewhere I want to return to. The light is harsher here at the height of summer. Although some of the most dramatic light I have come across occurred on the isle of Skye with...

    Fuji Some images from my xs1

    I believe they have offered to replace the sensors in the xs1's as well. Not sure if mine has the new sensor, however not experienced any issues as yet. One image has some fairly harsh highlights, but nothing to be overly bothered by.

    Fuji Some images from my xs1

    My understanding is that the new sensor has resolved the issue. I have not noted issues with the images I have taken, but have only ad the camera for 3 weeks.

    Fuji Some images from my xs1

    I have previously owned a fuji bridge camera and liked the image quality and couloirs the fuji produces. Over the past two years have wanted to simplify what I carry with me when I go out on a photography outing. In looking at bridge cameras my final choice came down to the xs1 or the Nikon...

    Hello from Melbourne

    Hi all, I have just found this forum and am delighted to find somewhere that compact cameras/systems are treated as serious tools for photography. I started out in digital photography with a Fuji s7000 before moving on to Pentax DSLRs and have now returned to using the Fuji xs1 which I am...
