I've been out of town on business and not able to keep up lately. I enjoyed spending the last 2 hours picking up where I left the thread. There are some wonderful photos.
I've been intrigued with Fuji cameras for a couple of years, but have been able to resist the urge to do more than look. However, after seeing Leighton's and George's photos taken with their Fuji's, I knew I had to figure out a way to give one a try without selling all of my Nikon gear. Last week, I came across a very good deal on a use, but in new condition, X-E1. My adapter just came in today so I went to our local Confederate cemetery this evening to see how the camera would do.
These were all made with the X-E1 and Nikon Nikkor-O 35mm f/2 (52.5mm equivalent). This is the widest non-G lens that I currently have, but I have a 24mm AI-S on the way to approximate my favorite focal length of 35mm.
The photos are nothing special, but I've got to say I'm truly impressed with this camera, even if it is "old" technology. These jpegs are straight from the camera with absolutely no adjustments at all. I thinks it's time to start saving my pennies for an X-T2!
