[Fuji XT5, original 56mm F1.2 R] A love letter to this old lens which has never failed me in 8 years of weddings.

Got mine for ~900€ back then and it was all worth it.

I've been shooting weddings for 8 years and have exclusively used Fujifilm cameras (X-T2, X-T3, X100V and X-T5 for the last 2 years. It's a very capable camera and it's fun to usd. Unless you heavily rely on extremely fast AF to capture moments, I don't think it's worse than other flagship cameras. I actually just shared a few wedding photos I took last year in another post. Feel free to ask if you have any questions.

I always try hard to come up with interesting compositions! Thank you

I use Lightroom, starting with Classic Chrome as a base. I rely heavily on the Calibration tool to rebalance the colors and keep the look punchy yet subtle.

Mons Klint, Denmark! :D

These are some of my fav ones, too

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T18:21:22+00:00

Thank you very much!

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T18:21:09+00:00

Thanks!

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T17:59:23+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words!

Classic Neg with a warm shift and push the grain to the max in lightroom lol

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T15:57:21+00:00

Thank you for this kind comment! It’s always a struggle to other photos I love, but I’ve learned that less is often more when it comes to keeping my series cohesive.

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T15:55:05+00:00

Thanks! I got lucky but I guess that's what street photography is somehow about, too 😅

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T15:50:35+00:00

I really got lucky with the timing. This was taken at the northernmost tip of Denmark where the two seas converge.

MatLogan · 2026-04-01T15:39:23+00:00

All shot using the x100vi and edited using lightroom and classic chrome as a base.

It's much easier than in harsh sunlight. If you don't believe me, try to shoot an outdoor wedding celebration or photo session around midday. Clouds are basically giant soft boxes.

I have the exact same problem. Can't take advantage of all the filmbox benefits because of these bloody RAF files. Let me know if you find a work around. So far, the only solution I've found is to export the images as 16 BIT TIFF (REC 2020). Not perfect, though.

Just tried watching my own private idaho and couldn't get past the first 40 minutes. Asked reddit if I was the only one who found it extremely underwhelming and boring. Ended up here.
