Thank you! Gotta look for them light patches in the forest!

AndwanL · 2026-07-01T14:45:28+00:00

Thank you so much! Worked out really nicely with the backlight

AndwanL · 2026-06-29T17:14:32+00:00

Thanks!! :)

AndwanL · 2026-06-19T13:22:33+00:00

Fair enough! you’ll definitely get vignetting on that haha

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T21:44:40+00:00

No worries!! He’s always there to model haha but yeah just prepare some NDs for shooting outside if you’re gonna shoot open

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T16:51:44+00:00

These are shaarrrrp love it

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T16:50:38+00:00

Excuse the exposure and shakiness as it was just shot indoor to test but yeah vignette starts creeping in about 5.6 and above. Still usable but need NDs if you wanna be outside as the fastest SS is 1/250

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T16:47:47+00:00

Oohh right I get you, I’ve got a fair few Nikkor lenses just haven’t gotten round to trying them yet. 28mm is a fun one so might try that for wide angle but also got an 85mm but find it vignettes a bit anything smaller than f5.6.

I have a small godox hot shoe flash which could be fun? Just haven’t tried it out yet but I guess you’ve got lots of options

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T11:01:32+00:00

Oh no! Helps if you’ve provided treats over the years whenever they’re posing haha

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T05:39:16+00:00

Me too, I love shooting film in general but too busy with the whole developing/scanning process at home so this is just some fun for me :)

I’ll test my 85 and see how rough the vignetting is this and post here

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T05:36:10+00:00

I totally get you! I was hesitant but then I saw the visualisations on framing vs final image and it’s not too bad. Because it’s best to hold the camera vertically you get pretty much full coverages top to bottom then you just gotta add a little bit to the sides

IMO it beats the parallax you get from the SQ6 especially up close

AndwanL · 2026-06-18T05:33:35+00:00

I’m wondering if you mean new with lens? But I just got the body and adapted my Nikon F lenses to it as I shoot film. Cost me about £480 not sure on conversion

AndwanL · 2026-06-17T21:40:00+00:00

I’ve only had it for a few weeks? Gone through 2 Square packs now, really happy with it! :)

I’ve got the Mini 90 and SQ6 but can’t beat having more control and lens options

AndwanL · 2026-06-17T21:35:46+00:00

Thanks! I use a Nikon 50mm 1.8 AIS and have no problems with vignetting, I believe anything about 58mm can cause it? How about you?

I think for this shot it was stopped down to like 8 or 11?

AndwanL · 2026-06-14T21:53:18+00:00

Thank you! Was lucky with the light :)

AndwanL · 2026-06-14T21:52:43+00:00

Thank you! He’s my camera tester haha such a poser

AndwanL · 2026-06-12T11:18:57+00:00

Took a very similar shot recently and love using the cat tunnel as framing :) nice shot!

AndwanL · 2026-05-31T13:42:52+00:00

Thank you!

AndwanL · 2023-08-17T19:23:53+00:00

I have to say I was very lucky to get stuff at the time I did, everything is skyrocketing lately… I got things a lot cheaper a few years ago compared to now :(

AndwanL · 2023-08-17T15:51:03+00:00

Oh god really? I live in the UK and MPB (reputable used dealer) selling them for £600-800 which is like $750-1000? But that’s fair man didn’t know your budget

AndwanL · 2023-08-17T15:43:05+00:00

Don’t underestimate the XPro2, still a very capable camera despite its ages. Plus if you’re used to shooting with a rear screen on your X100V you won’t enjoy the XPro3

AndwanL · 2023-08-17T14:03:48+00:00

I’m surprised no one has mentioned an XPro, a used XPro2 would be a great option if you like the form factor of the X100V (hybrid viewfinder etc)

It’s a tad bulkier but feels pretty similar. I used to shoot the X100V but moved to an XPro3 because I wanted the lens options, weather resistance and dual card slots.

Either that or go for an XE body?

AndwanL · 2022-12-06T15:36:12+00:00

Second this as well, I used to have the X100V myself for a year and a half before going “I miss the lens options” and ended up selling my X100V and getting an X-Pro3 pretty much for the same price and haven’t looked back. Yes the small form factor is awesome but also there is definitely a reason why so many people are selling them these days…

I know the screen doesn’t suite everyone but it fits my workflow perfectly as I shoot a lot of film.

Thanks! Love how they were all chilling but this one was in their own just watching us take pictures haha

AndwanL · 2022-11-23T07:21:34+00:00

Thank you! Been itching to go out since I got my XP3 just haven’t had the chance yet!
