Hi Jordan -

How do you find the AF speed b/w the two lenses?

I need to shoot with them more to really get a feel, but the 18-55 feels a fair bit faster, though I'm not sure how much of it is due to the speed and how much is due to the fact that the 18-55 is nearly silent when it focuses, compared to the buzz from the 35mm.

A cartoonish, salvaged, heavily PPed shot from a moving car at night. Worth saving?

Or as a great photographer once said:
"You can polish a turd, but it is still a piece of s#$%!"

Actually, I love it. Sometimes photos have a tendency to be too technically perfect - many of the best photos appear to be an amalgam of the real and surreal, as in this case.

Me too! Looks lovely and not overdone...

My first opportunity to take my camera on vacation to Antigua.

I agree.

Not sure it will hold up if you print big, but at least as we're viewing it there's something nice about it.

Passed this on the road today and turned around for a few quick snaps. Must have been quite the place at one time. X-E1 with 18-55mm at 33mm, f/16

You guys are killing me with the X-E1 shots. Now that true LR support is available I feel myself caving - the wife will not be happy.

Do it! Do it! Do it!

^ - lovely.

A few recent ones with the 35 1.4. The first is RAW in LR 4.4, the other two are jpegs.

These are nothing special, but I brought the X-E1 to a 1 year old's birthday party (my daughter is friends with the birthday boy's sisters.) It actually performed pretty well, though I had a few instances where it refused to focus. However, for the most part it was fine. Light was such that I needed to shoot at about ISO 800 with the 35/1.4 and ISO 3200 with the 18-55, but I continue to be impressed at how well this camera does at ISO 3200, and how little adjustment is needed in RAW. I find myself rarely touching the clarity and vibrance sliders with the X-E1.

With 35/1.4 @ f/2, ISO 800:

Hello everyone,

I would like to share some of my photos taken with the Fuji X-Pro1 and 35mm lens. Hopefully I will be able to add the X-E1 + Kit in the later months.

I tried some product shots for a client with my X-E1 and the 35 1.4 - Although I couldn't get as close to the subjects as I had wanted to, I am pretty happy with some of the images. processed with LR4.4 and vscofilm, more on my website: www.rum-diary.net

Hadn't heard of VSCO Film, and looked it up...wow, that's expensive for Lightroom presets. $360 for all of them... Do you find they do any better of a job than the film simulation in Nik Color Efex Pro?
