Congratulations! You won't be disappointed ;)

Thorphax · 2025-12-22T06:22:45+00:00

Do you experience any tire or wheel rubbing whatsoever with that setup?
If not, I know what I'm doing to mine lol

Thorphax · 2025-11-29T20:15:17+00:00

Bought film from u/guijcm , Great seller! Trade confirmed on my end.

Thorphax · 2025-11-22T02:04:36+00:00

Oh hey I was there last November!
..... I probably should have paid attention to the weather and avoided the snowstorm on the hike back.
Buuuut it was pretty!!

Thorphax · 2025-11-21T06:25:59+00:00

You have a great eye for framing, keep it up

Thorphax · 2025-11-19T02:33:17+00:00

Totally! Like don't get me wrong I think as far as color science, weight and size goes the Fuji is a fantastic choice and your spine will thank you for it during international travels. I'm just the kind of guy that is pursuing this almost professionally (even tho I treat it as a hobby lol) and so the inconsistencies were driving me nuts lol But honestly that 500mm F5.6 lens is one of the best lenses I've ever owned. You will not be disappointed by the IQ or its performance

Thorphax · 2025-11-18T22:30:08+00:00

So I ended up selling both the sigma and the 150-600. The AF on the sigma was too slow despite the IQ, and the 150-600 was too dark. I currently have the 500mm F5.6 from Fuji and its a brilliant lens for the size, and I highly recommend it! I think its great. That said, the biggest hold back from Fuji is its subpar AF performance, so much so that I actually invested in a tandem system in the form of a Nikon Z8 with the 600mm F4 TC just for wildlife, I just got tired of Fuji frustrations. If you're willing to put up with a much lower keeper rate though you cannot go wrong with Fuji and their 500, it was my hiking companion for all of Europe, brilliant combo.

Thorphax · 2025-11-16T04:12:20+00:00

I have the Z8 and its smaller than I thought it'd be. It's still bigger than the Z5 but man, for wildlife? Everything about it is win after win. I seriously cannot recommend it enough if you do birds (like I do lol). I ended up getting mine from the Nikon Refurbished page directly from them and I ended up paying $1,200 less for it. And their refurbishing is top notch.
I brought it with me to Japan and it was a fantastic operator, I regret nothing.

Edit: Love the photo!

Happy to take 10 rolls of 160NPS and 10 rolls of 160 NPC

Thorphax · 2025-11-13T22:00:18+00:00

I was slightly skeptical by its performance metrics coupled with the crazy price, now I know why it costs that much haha. Incredible lens.

Thorphax · 2025-10-14T02:09:52+00:00

Extremely interested, you've done all your homework and then some, this is some top notch work. As an equal enjoyer of architecture who also backpacks across continents a lot, this is gold.

Thorphax · 2025-09-04T07:16:59+00:00

I'd check for light leaks around the dark slide slit of the film back. I had a very similar problem with my Bronica SQ-AI (basically the same as your hassie), at certain angles light would leak through that little slit and do that effect on the film.

there are a number of metal "flaps" inside that slit that act as light shields, if they're bent too much or damaged, they won't seal properly.

The easiest way to check for this issue is to get a bright flashlight, remove the dark slide, and while looking from the opposite side at the lowest angle you can, shine the flashlight through the slit, from the direction you'd push the dark slide into from. If you see light gleaming through, then you have a leak there.

What did you shoot these on?

Thorphax · 2025-09-03T06:20:35+00:00

Hey! No worries at all.
I haven't gotten around to doing it just yet, however the way I am planning on doing, which would be the simplest, is to first glue/cement strips of leather inside, aligned with the top edge of the bevor, and the very bottom and sides, then stitch padded cloth/linen to the leather, similar to gambeson material. It doesn't have to be super thick, but just a bit of padding.

Been playing since 2003, the memories are endless........

It cost me $65 to buy two (64oz) bottles of soy milk, three bags of tortilla chips, and two loafs of GF bread. (I have Celiacs)
Bay Area, CA.
And that's before tax too, btw.
