Having used Nikon for so many years I am still trying to get to terms with the XT2and lenses. These the D4s would have nailed with the 70-200 (same lens equivalent) at this shutter speed. I am not sure what I did wrong, the shutter was well in range for the focal length and I have only been doing these shots for my bread and butter for the last 30 years.
If you enlarge them you will see the boat is ghosted and there is no sharpness to it. I am really disappointed if the truth be known, the photo boat wasn't rocking much at all and it should have been an absolute formality. Race boats at 100+ mph you can see the individual screw heads they are so sharp, but the Fuji I haven't got it right yet and it is very frustrating.
Any helpful ideas very welcome - no, not faster shutter speed, becuse that is the shutter I would have used at 200mm on 35mm frame, so should be a straight transfer. I use the focal length of full frame to go by, not the Fuji length, which is misrepresentative because it doesn't take into account the crop. eg if Fuji tells me it is at 70mm, then I would work as if it was 105mm.
