Warren Wolf on the Vibraphone at 2017 Newport Jazz Fest. I love that I can hand-hold the lens at longest FL @ 1/40s to get the dynamic movement of the mallets while everything else is in focus.

From a zombie walk. X-E1 and quite a bit of post processing. One of my favorite things about the Fuji files is the capacity for them to take to post processing.

Great shots. I love a good zombie walk.

It is now a full-on sickness. A friend introduced me to bird/wildlife photography, and after years as a self-described editorial photographer, I can't help but shoot every bird around me. These two were at a school golf tournament this morning...

The second one isn't very interesting compositionally, but I only had a couple of seconds to grab a shot as he walked quickly by us on the golf course. I just thought he was unusually marked.

The second photo turns out to be an Egyptian Goose!

I was about to ask that very question, I don't think I've ever seen one.

Still think the 55-200 is the best telephoto bang for the buck.

This lens is the reason I bought back into the Fuji universe. I was satisfied with the IQ I was getting from my Panasonic G80, but I wanted a better mid-range telephoto lens than the Olympus 75-300 II, and the PL 50-200 was much more than I'm willing to pay for a lens. My research into alternatives led me to the Fuji 55-200, and I am glad I made the switch.
