Hi everyone,
I'm hoping to find any tips, advice or good guides that would help a novice photographer and new X user get the most out a Fujifilm X-M1 while on holiday.
It's my camera, but I've loaned it to my mother so she has something to capture her holiday with my young nephews. My knowledge is quite limited so I'm not sure myself how to set up the camera to make it as easy as possible. I won't be there to help or figure it out.
They are going to Barbados for a week and I've been able to provide: X-M1, XF27mm with Heliopan short hood, XC16-50mm with Fujifilm hood, and an MCEX-11 macro ring.
We don't have any filters, so mainly I'm concerned about getting the best setup to use around the beach and in what I hope will be bright sunny weather. Also my mother paints, so she wants to photograph any flowers she sees that she would like to try painting later.
We're sing RAW + jpeg mode already, I've decreased noise reduction. If anyone can offer any suggestions on the likely best modes, other settings etc. or point toward a useful tips guide I would be very grateful.
Thanks for reading and any help you can offer.
