Argh... portraits, damnit!
Ha! I wouldn't hold your breath as I don't see many people shooting the type and quality of portraits with the X10 that you are able to create with yours. Maybe you should contact them and ask for a sample copy with the understanding that they can use a few of your images for promotion!
That said, I do like the one of the blood oranges!
I think the degree of sharpness is quite impressive - especially on the one with the girl and the exercise book, and on the tulips. Both hold up to 100% without showing any smears or jags. I know what you mean though. The official X10 samples on the Fuji web site were quite poor too. Let's hope someone with more skill gets hold of one soon !The rest look a little flat and soft for my taste. It's just odd that generally speaking, "sample" photos from camera makers don't look very good.
No. I need to see some more decent samples soon or I might change my mind and get an X100. But as I mentioned above the X10 official samples failed to whelm me too so there is hope!Am I the only one who finds the images underwhelming?
The copy book paper has a good feel to it and the detail in the river buildings shot looks pretty good for a small sensor at ISO400.
Does the Fuji DR expansion work like that in other brands? i.e. They call it ISO 400 so that the exposure values make sense, but it is really an ISO 100 image underexposed two stops but with the shadows pushed.
