Fuji Sunday Walk - X100 - SFX

[Iansky]

Out for a walk today and took the X100 along, some nice sky for B&W.

gorgeous!

Nice skies indeed Ian!! Composition's not too shabby either

Glad to see the X100 hasn't been relegated to the bag's bottom with the arrival of the GX1. Must say I'm really loving what you're achieving with both, or either.

Nice images!!!

Lovely stuff Ian. Were those taken with a high DR setting?

Nicely done, nice place to hang out.

 

[bilzmale]

Lovely images.

 

[lucpher]

WOW! Excellent stuff!

 

[Lili]

My God, the sharpness and tonality make think of medium format film work. Delicate mid-tones and sparkling highlights!
Well done, Sir!

 

[Jules]

Really lovely images, particularly #3.

I did not use the HDR setting on the camera (have not done so yet), just shot in normal AP at between f4 - f8 at 200ISO. I do convert to B&W using SFX Pro2 and used the HDR setting for that conversion then added some structure.

For landscape/street, the X100 is now my camera of choice and I am sure will remain so - the X100 manages to capture a beautiful array of tones and since updating firmware to 1.13 I am sure the AF is considerably better.

I am due to go on a trip next month so plan on taking the X100 for street and the GX1 to use with the 45-175 and 20mm and as a back up!
