I have a mint condition Olympus 75 1.8 with Olympus brand (not third brand) hood, both in mint condition with boxes. You know the hood itself costs $80. I am adding Panasonic 14/2.5 lens (no box for that one) to even the trade and I want to trade it for a new/as new Fuji X-E1 Black kit with 18-55is. It can also be Olympus 75 1.8+hood + $150 for X-E1 Black kit.

Is anyone using Lightroom 5 with X100S? After importing RAW files, Lightroom does not automatically apply a lens profile, and when I manually select one a lens profile under "Fujifilm", only the X100 model is listed, not X100S.

 

Is the included X100 lens profile in Lightroom the correct profile for the X100S or am I missing something?

Shooting landscapes this weekend I was using the T setting for my shutter speed then the 4 way buttons on the back to pick the time I wanted. I was also using the 2 second delay on the shutter as set in the Q menu. If the camera went to sleep both of these settings would go back to their default (1/2 second I think and no delay). Is there anyway to avoid this beyond setting the sleep time to a longer setting? I'm thinking of getting a remote just so I can use Bulb and the remote will remember the setting...

Purchased this lens new (about a month ago) along with the X-Pro1, and it is in excellent condition. I have decided on selling as I never use it (always reach for my old Nikkors instead)

Hey,

 

I shoot fashion/portraits and have been testing the X-Pro1 for a few days and really like the results. I typically use a Canon 5dmk3, and in my testing purely from an IQ perspective I really don't see any perceptible difference barring the Canon having more resolution. This is a good thing.

 

I virtually always shoot flash and find I don't need to shoot super quick, I'm normally shooting someone right in front of me so don't need the Sports-like speed or anything, so the auto focus being decent but not as good as the Canon hasn't hampered me that much.

 

I like that the camera is small and light and I can hold my Quantum flash is one hand with the X-Pro1, whereas with the Canon I have to get someone else to hold it as holding the Canon w/one hand (w/a 24-70) is so heavy on my wrists. It also feels more fluid as I don't have to tell an assistant what I want them to do, I can just do it myself. (Note, have to use the grip, gives a cramp otherwise!)

 

I'm therefore really considering doing the switch as I see lots of upsides and the downsides being lesser. There are two things that I'm a little, if not concerned at least conscious of, I was wondering what people thought.

 

Firstly, the buffer/shot to shot time could be an issue. I reckon I can tap out about 12 shots at a steady speed before the buffer fills up and needs me to wait before I can shoot. Ok it's not a huge issue as it will let me shoot soon after, however it stills seems to take the best part of a minute to clear the buffer and let me image review.

 

The Canon to it's credit is instant writing essentially so I can review/show the images right away. Obviously in film days this would be redundant but I was wondering if anyone has found this a problem in a working environment - peeps want to check things all the time these days.

 

Secondly, I shoot video too so the Canon is cool. I've been following the RAW hack and that seems great but realistically I don't see it being practical for a while in a real environment when you need rock solid reliability.

 

Therefore if I were to make the switch I'd need to get a separate video device and I'm thinking a GH3 could be good for this, especially as it's a great video camera + could function as a solid second camera body should I have a reliability issue with the Fuji. At the moment I just use the Canon, no spares.

 

I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on this, re: the wisdom of a spare, re: giving up the Canon. My flash technique is often continuous+on axis flash hence why it tends to be held above the lens, given this it seems that the Fuji improves my ability to this so I'm in good spirits about making the switch but am looking for some perception before I do.

 

Any other thoughts etc from a fashion/editorial/portrait perspective?

 

Cheers!
