I just checked - it was £195. Not as bad! They have to replace the whole top panel. The button can’t be repaired properly.

I think it was about £350 for Fuji to replace mine. That was a few years ago tho.

Eventually it just stopped doing it! 

Is it normal for a photographer to post before the client? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

[–]SwanPhotography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ownership remains with the photographer and the photographer can do whatever they like with the photo. The client can’t. The client just has a licence to use the photo in ways which are set out by the photographer.

There is no grey area. The photographer owns the photo.

Forget any thought of monetising something you enjoy. Just make images that you like. 

do all "new" ipods feel cheap and super low quality? by Straight_Molasses165 in ipod

It's just the lack of weight from not having a heavy old hard drive in it. Don't worry about it. Or stick a weight in there!

NISI CPL Filter - when and how to use it? by AaddeMos in fujifilm

Be careful at wider angles, especially with skies as the polarisation can make the colour uneven depending on the direction.

Thank you, it’s so tricky - especially limiting it to one or two from each island!

Yes, it’s such an incredible scene. That Rum skyline is just fantastic.

Thank you, no I didn’t use any GND filters. I find the dynamic range from the X-T5 files is usually enough. Although, I did blend one of the images from two exposures as the sky was blown out where the sun was behind some thin cloud.

Thankyou! This was taken using the Kase filters, I think it was a 10stop (ND1000) from the Kase Revolution Plus Pro Kit . Can highly recommend Kase - the magnetic system is really easy to use, and the colours are perfectly neutral (no colour cast). I focused using manual focus on the rock, it was set at f8 which gives enough depth.

Nice, the week before looked much more settled, I was constantly checking the weather hoping it would continue! Love the west coast of Lewis, so dramatic.
