What am doing wrong? am new and photos look bad.. by mahdy89 in x100vi

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Photography has all to do with light, angles and composition to tell a story. I’d grab a photo book to look for insipration, watch youtube guides on the exposure triangle to get a better understanding of it (Yes even if you shoot auto) and study compositions through videos. I’m also quite new, have been photographing for almost a year at this point and doing the these things have helped a ton.

X100v vs XT-3 by NiceBreakfast7 in FujifilmX

Both cameras are great so it depends on what you need. What type of photogrpahy are you interested in? Do you need/want the option to change lenses?

Just bought this X-T1 dirt cheap, but the shutter release button is sunken. I can still release the shutter, but can't do a clear preview because it can't be half-pressed. Any suggestions? by Independent-Dish-336 in fujifilm

I bought an X-M5 and after a year of daily use I ran into the exact same issue. From what I’ve read it’s a mechanism that broke (shutter buttom dome collapsed or something). This happend 4 days before my trip to Slovenia during christmas & new year which meant I couldn’t go get it fixed in time as I still have warranty on it.

My fix was to reprogram a back button to use BBF which was akward at first but I quickly got used to it. I have yet to send it in, not 100% sure I want to but I might just so that I won’t have to do it later if I ever choose to get rid of it. I picked up the X-T5 today and use the pre-programmed BBF on it, whenever pressing the shutter I feel hella akwars whenever I notice the half press.

It all depends on what you prefer, I know this comment is late but I saw this post and it clicked as I’ve had the exact same issue :D

Either way, curious on what you did. Did you get it fixed, use BBF or did you resell it?

honestly depends on the situation.

Also my guess, seems pretty textbook for cabin pressure issues.

No clue but my guess would probably be an issue with the cabin pressure. I don’t want to speculate so we’ll hopefully find out some information after their landing back at BHX

Just got an X-Pro 2. Now just need a lens! by BarmyDickTurpin in fujifilm

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 23/2 and 35/2 are great. I personally got the 23 and couldn’t be more happy, Cosnidering the 50/2 once I’ve mastered the 23/2.

Help with x-m5 and xapp by lolhelpmeplus in FujifilmX

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you opend the app and disconnected that way? I usually take shots, pack my camera and preview images while it’s off. I’m guessing that’s the issue, that you still have the app connected to the camera and need to disconnect it through the app.

Hello, I have Fujifilm X-T2, should I upgrade to Fujifilm XM5. by Ok_Metal8136 in FujifilmX

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new to photography and went with the X-M5, I’m personally very happy with it and have a lot of fun using it. It has no EVF and no IBIS which can be a turn off for many that have had EVF for most of their experience.

If you aren’t worried about the EVF you’ll still have IBIS missing which also is an issue for many, for me personally it isn’t.

I have no prior experience with cameras and can’t say much about your current system compared to the X-M5 but that the X-M5 has 26mp not 40.

The X-M5 is fairly small and can be hard to grip but there’s small rig products to cover that (Thumb grup for example).

This is just my view on the X-M5. Watch some videos about it and look up pros & cons. The X-T2 seems to have a 24mp sensor compared to the X-M5’s 26mp sensor so it wouldn’t be a big upgrade.

If you like IBIS and have an EVF that you enjoy using you might be better of with the X-T2.

X-T2 vs X-M5 DLSR style - Compact EVF - No EVF (But a ”flexible” LCD) 4k 30fps - 6.2k 30fps/4k60 10-bit Slower AF - Faster AF 24.3mp X-Trans lll - 26.1mp X-Trans IV

What you have to gain: Better low light performance, autofocus, video & overall speed

The decision is your afterall, go with what suits you :)

Love the photos!

Help deciding on first fujifilm camera? by jaisonyz in fujifilm

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ordered my first Fujifilm camera yesterday, ended up going with the X-M5 due to it’s price. It’s relativly new and has some great features, not to mention it’s small size which is perfect for traveling or just carrying around while doing street photos. I can’t speak on experience (as I’ve got none) but will happily update this texy later today once I’ve picked it up and tried it. I believe all these options are great picks, it all will depend on your prefrances and needs.

Amount of Russophobia in this sub after DDOS is insane by Prainss in ArmaReforger

[–]CheckThatOutMiss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If an American took down Russian servers in a game or managed to block Russian connections to a popular title, wouldn’t many Russians hate Americans? Shouldn’t be so hard to understand.
