From the Imp Ledge, White Mountain National Forest with 200 F4. I forgot to set the lens correctly on the camera, so Exif is indicating it was 105mm, but it is wrong.
Really nice fall captures, we seldom get that kind of vibrance here in Kansas!

Samy, great stuff with your smallest kit, that first piece at the aquarium shines with the tones, grain, and diagonal bridge cables.
Leighton those seem to be the first shots I've seen from your new Fuji. Did you change your processing or am I correctly detecting a change in Fuji colors?
Quite a piano Serge. Was it lit with color? If so, a color version might really pop with the translucence.
Another great capture Ben, with the lady and the mask in the light.
Ken, that red truck has a nice glow to it.
I'm not sure if it's the difference between the processor from my old X-T2, or the processor in the X-S10. The X-S10 shares the same sensor and processor as Fuji's flagship X-T4.
At the same time, I switched back to Lightroom from Capture 1 for a few reasons, so it may be that as well.
Only problem is most sellers in B&S here will not ship outside of CONUS, forgetting that Alaska, Hawaii, APO/FPO/DPO, Puerto Rico, and other US Territories qualify for USPS US rates for shipping (see Flat Rate boxes). And then there are the customs forms people don't want to fill out..
My daughter asked me about shipping her some maple extract so she can make cookies. Told her it would be a minimum of $16.25, with the current temporary increase in package shipping prices for Christmas. I poked around on Amazon, and they'll charge $31 for shipping... and I can't find it on amazon's uk site. I may include it in her Christmas package..

I rarely buy from US on eBay. Have been burned by description a couple times. Luckily on low dollar items. Japan sellers are much better and in a lot of cases, ship cheaper and faster than here in the US. And if there is any issue, they do what ever they can to rectify the situation.. I have had the best luck at local shops in the US, but over the last few years those “finds” are few and far between. KEH has slipped in my opinion. Last two items went back. Physical description was accurate, but if the lens doesn’t function I don’t care how pretty that pig is
By far the best experience in used gear has been here on FM
Rafael - they're beautiful, but......er......isn't the HC missing its infinity lock? That's a surprise from you??
I get very similar results from my H. I think my 5cm f1.4 is sharper. I thought it was sample variation but yours look quite similar, so that's very interesting. Rafael, I'm not usually fussy about the corners but they're terrible on these lenses, even at f11 (I'm assuming the first is f2 and the second is f11). They seem much better for close shots. I'm not using mine except for close up.
