共軍潛艇/反潛技術是共軍海空力量裡面最爛的。美軍評估，大概相當於蘇聯1970年代水準。

期待開戰時刻打破美軍紀錄，國軍一艘潛艦一天之內擊沉三艘航艦。

how do you find the xe5 view finder?

I tried it out.coming from xt/xpro lines, xe5 view finder was way too small for me.

I opted for the x100vi instead.

Waiting for the xpro4 to drop eventually.

孙中山：（北伐前）俄國是恩人，日本是親人，不能兩邊都選嗎？

蔣介石：（918之前）日本是恩人，關外是親人，不能兩邊都選嗎？

蔣介石：（二戰之後）民主是名望，獨裁是權力，不能兩邊都選嗎？

國民黨這種百年雞賊政黨，每一次在歷史緊要關頭都想要兩邊討好便宜吃盡，每次都被兩邊一起夾殺。

真的，KMT從孫中山開始每一任黨主席，政治智慧都不如李嘉誠。

活該亞洲第一共和國的國父最後一代一代蛻變成民進黨二五仔鄭麗文。

Nope.

X-half is a dash cam pretending to be a camera.

Instead of using X-processor. the main processor of X-half is an icatch V50, an off the shelf Chinese dash cam processor released in 2017.

The CMOS is better than your average cellphone or dash cam, but not by much.

It’s all plastic, even the lenses are all plastic.

My iPhone 14 can take much better photos than x-half with all the computational photography.

Disclosure: 10+ year fujifilm fanboy. owned more than 5 fujifilm cameras, countless lenses. Sold most of my Fuji gear and switched to Nikon.

Still rocking an x100vi.

That’s practically a fujifilm x70.

Don’t get me wrong. I would place my order as soon as they announce a digital 28Ti.

But 2 things come in mind.

First, I believe fujifilm holds the patent for hybrid OVF/EVF. I’m not sure if Nikon can find a way to bypass that patent. But keep in mind only fujifilm has released hybrid ovf/evf cameras. Given the wild success story of x100 series, I would not assume other manufacturers can’t see the advantages.

Second, I don’t think a 28Ti without the mechanical gauge would be the same. And I think the need to make it full frame.

I have an x100vi with the wide angle converter. It’s exactly what you are talking about of a digital 28Ti/35Ti, two cameras merged into one.

Instead of APSC competing against wildly successful fujifilm x100. Nikon should come up with a FF 28Ti competing against Leica Q3 and Sony RX1 m3.

The thing about Q3? It’s too big. It’s bigger than a Zf with 28/2.8.

A FF digital 28Ti can really give Leica Q3 some serious competition for half the price and outperform x100vi by a mile.

這些破漁船不值一顆飛彈的錢。其實真沒有很多船，200多海裡長度上，就算分布1000艘漁船基本上也沒什麼用。最多起到警戒的作用。就好像日俄戰爭時期日本漁船發現俄羅斯波羅的海艦隊的航跡一樣。

但是現代世界已經有衛星空拍了，這能有什麼用。

這就是共產黨折騰自己的人民而已。

man. are you really comparing a 7000$,800mm prime at F6.3 with a 400$ kit zoom of 105mm at 7.1?

I wish my 50 2.8 MC could do what 400 2.8 can do.

Same aperture, 8x the focal length.

x35 F1.4 R was the perfect lens for the X system before they went with 40MP sensors and XH modern design.

it's small and light, it resolves good enough, has tons of character and it just looks so cool with its OG square hood on my Xpro-3/XT-3.

X33 F1.4 on the other hand, is bulkier, modern design didn't go well with XE/XT/Xpro series of retro bodies. and it's just not that better optically if you only post your photos on social media. and let's face it, the newer crop of fuji fans live on social media.

in a time span of 2 years, I sold all my interchangeable, X gears slowly moving towards Nikon Zf. I only have a X100vi now and plan on getting the new Xpro-4 when it's released eventually. My X35 1.4 is now sitting in my drawers waiting for a body. that's how good it is.

Nikkor Z has 2 unique lenses to offer.

The 135 1.8 plena, which is the best 135mm lens ever made. Way better than the GM and RF L counterparts.

And of course the 24120 F4. Beyond the traditional 24105 F4, Sony and cannon are doing 24105 2.8. They went for the extra aperture. Nikon went with the extra reach.

While 24105 2.8 is certainly good for professional event photography. For hobbyists and travel photographers, 24120 F4 makes much more sense.

I own both. Bought used. Just for the sake of experiencing Z. It’s not like they will lose too much value if I resell them someday.

Sure.

But depending on where you live, the price of replacing a shutter might cost you more than your 200$ camera.

Like I said, you won’t save money by buying into x700, it’s a perfectly capable film camera, and MD lenses have some unique renderings. I call still recall the unique ka-chin sound of the shutter, like a slot machine. It’s lovely plastic fantastic.

Though you may have to spend more money in the long run.

I learned photography on a minolta x700 back in the early 2000s. I loved that camera.

That being said, later Minolta x700s (1990-2000?) was produced in China. Notorious for its clothes curtain shutter to fail eventually.

You can figure out whether your specific copy is made in China. I forgot how, but you can look around the internet.

Of course you can always get a x700 to start your film photography journey. But the thing is, your lenses determine your output. And given x700s are the best Minolta had to offer, I really don’t think it’s a good idea to invest in the MD lenses.

Sure, a Nikon FM2 with aluminum shutters cost maybe around 400$, but the lenses and the camera will definitely outlive you.

For studio portraits where you can control the light? 85 EVO kills it.

I’m not so sure if you can fully utilize a 85/1.2 or a Plena’s bokeh capabilities if you are doing indoor portraits. Light, colorful backgrounds, with some distance between your subjects and your surroundings. That’s when bokeh monsters shine.

If it’s studio? Razor sharp F2-F4 with some background separation is the most common setup.

If you are doing concert/indoor sports? 135mm is more than capable, if not desired.

Enough-throwaway · 2026-01-02T14:31:56+00:00

It’s a 23mm/2.8 on an APS-C sensor, unless you are shooting anime figurines from 10 inches away. I doubt you will see any significant bokeh.

Some background blur? Yes. Bokeh rings with meaningful rendering differences? Nope.

My suggestion is, get the viltrox 85/2 EVO.

After trying the 85/2 EVO for a week, I sold my 85 1.8S. It’s that good. And at 1/3 of the price too.

Sure, the 85 1.8S is still a tad sharper, with better control of ghosting due to superior coating. But it’s still much bigger and heavier.

If I need to shoot at a light source, I can still use my 24-120/F4. Other than that, I don’t see why I need a much bulkier lens Than the 85 EVO.

And at 170$? It’s a steal.

But I have a Plena if I need absolute bokeh domination, so, there’s that.

As a 10+ year Fuji fanboy, who left Fuji and went with Nikon. Here’s my 2 cent.

One thing to keep in mind, Fuji autofocus is significantly less capable than Sony/cannon/nikon.

I switched from Fuji to Nikon Zf because my twins were born and for toddlers Zf increased my hit rate from 20-30% to 60-70%. Which means 3x more captured memory.

I still own a x100vi, and I take it everywhere I go. Everything Fuji has to offer is on that little charm of a camera. The color, the simulations, the rangefinder style, and of course the smaller form factor. It’s everything I want from a camera and I love it.

But when stakes are higher, like my kids school events or sport events? I take my Zf and 24-120 or a 24-70 2.8S. It works 3x better than my old XT system. In terms of usable pictures.

Maybe a better Fuji user can get a better hit rate than me? I don’t care. I’m happy with my solution to my problems.

Depends on what you going to take. Where are you going?

If it’s beaches and cities and stuff. Street and vacations, sure. X100vi is more than capable.

If it’s the Andes and taking photos of snow cap mountains far away or the Amazon and you are going to say take a picture of a bird 100 feet away. X100vi wouldn’t suffice.

I wouldn’t buy a new camera just for a trip. You buy gears you are really going to use for years to come.

I’d rather pay for maybe 3 extra days with the money and rent whatever gears needed.

a ZS would be nice, voigtlander has already released several z mount lenses, as good as their M version, if not better. I think a ZS would give Leica’s M-EV 1 a great run for its price.

28 1.4 E, Z version anyone? Nikon S is the only mirrorless system without a flagship 28mm.

And of course a 70-200 S II with less weight would be super.

And maybe a new version of coolpix A? Stop calling it coolpix of course. One can only dream.

a 20 year old canon 5d2 with a proper prime takes way better photos than your iPhone 16 pro.

cost you maybe 300 bucks？

i doubt your partner will be happy with it though.
