No doubt it puts out some good pixels, as your samples show But actually using the XE1 was a huge turnoff for me, mostly due to the small EVF and the really slow refresh rate of it, which made even MF hard for me. With AF lenses, wasn't so bad I guess and I loved the small-ness of it
While out running errands Sunday, I swung through Dallas' Design District. It's rapidly becoming a trendy place to live/eat/hang out, but much of it remains galleries, trade-only furniture stores, small businesses and light manufacturing, which makes it a quiet place on a weekend afternoon.
"It's right behind the hotel, just a half block away, in between the buildings, corner of the crossroads. You can't miss it!", the two young concierge staff at my accommodation chimed.
In response to my question asking them what's a simple bite around here that only locals would go for.
Braised beef, broth, pickled mustard leaves and long thick flour noodles not unlike udon.
Yeah ... shop was closed. Boosted shadows just to get this, I didn't venture that far in, not with my 2.5year old kid asking why papa why is it so dark.
