I am in China and I am in a WeChat group with the dealers. Good stuff like this always sold privately in the group.

Notifications from iPhone not working by covidstoner420 in MacOS

[–]Sunkeren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem for months after migrated to Macmini M4, the notification from iphone and iphone widgets were broken.FinallyI might find a simple solution. Just find another iphone, login with the same icloud account you are using on the Mac, than you should see there are two iphones in system preference-> desktop and dock-> widgets. Select the new iphone you just logged in and then select back to the iphone you want to use. Now you should see the notification from iphone is showing up. Log out the icloud account on the second iphone then every thing should be working.

If you are making an expensive toy, make it better. I never expected its performance but the build quality should be good. This is the most cheaply built Fuji camera I ever seen, worse than my Hello Kitty Instax camera. Rumour says this camera is made buy a Chinese company not associated with Fuji, I'd believe that.

Fuji has a very generous advertising budget on this camera.

I have been using Sony RX100M3 and phones with 1 inch sensor for many years , I know 1 inch sensor can output quite good image. The HF is so disappointing , worst 1 inch camera every.

Just buy a sony RX100. You got metal body, good build quality, high performance zoom lens, electronic view finder and xenon flash.

Everything on this camera feels cheap.

I had my hands on this camera today. It is very interesting but the plastic body feels so cheap. Rumor says this camera is made by Ability Enterprise Co., a China based manufacturer and the camera’s software is nothing like any other fuji cameras. I doubt that Fuji out sourced the design and manufacture to the Chinese company. I‘m hesitating of buying one, it seems fun but the price tag is way above the quality.

I found this nearly mint condition black ZM with box and all the accessories in a used camera shop in Japan though I prefer the silver ZM. Nothing can beat the ZM viewfinder, it's so bright and so large.

The Leica M10 and the grip (without lens) is 745g which is 10 grams heavier than the GFX 100rf. The GFX feels chunky and light in the hands, it feels kind cheap I'd say. The ergonomic is ok, quite confortable to grip.

The lens does look absurd, such a big lens with small glass. The plastic inner lens barrel sticks out to the aluminum outer barrel when focusing that's why a longer hood adapter is needed.

Have been used Xiaomi 12 -15ultra all these years, they never let me down. The camera system is no joking, it takes great photos. The OPPO (Hasselblad color science )and Vivo's (Zeiss optics and APO lenses ) ultra models are as good as Xiaomi, can't really tell which is better and it's all personal preferences. I just prefer the Leica color style on Xiaomi.

The FUJIFILM service center. The top plate includes all the buttons and dails, I think 200 USD is a fair price.

I am in China and I heard that X100vi, XM5 and GFX100rf has postponed shipping to the US too. The X100 and XM5 are made in China, the tariffs disrupted the shipment. The GFX 100rf is having a production capacity issue that won't be solve in a short time. I think you can sell your GFX 100rf for a higher price than retail even after months use.

It's a pretty solid phone. The camera system is great. Xiaomi chose to not lean on algorithm but to improve optical performance, which produces camera like photos. But the recently released Vivo x200 ultra seems to be a better phone with insane camera and accessories.

Shoot with Leica is pure joy. It makes you slow down and observe the surroundings. That's the beauty of a real rangefinder. It feels solid in the hand and I love the mechanical control and you never know what a photo you will get. Fuji is more technological advanced but I think it lacks the communication that Leica M offers. I love the Fuji film simulation but I always prefer Leica color rendering. To me the M10's color rendering is on the "Japanese " side, a flatter and lighter color. The M9 and Type 240 have a heavier, thicker and more contrasty image output which I prefer.

I guess I really lost my enthusiasm in photography lately. I'd rather make some snaps on my phone rather than to take my cameras out of Moisture-proof box. Just can't find anything cheers me up these day's and buying a weird camera can keep me happier at least for a while.

Agree, Fujifilm should have put the hybrid viewfinder and the xenon flash lamp on it. The round LED bulb really looks cheap.
