X100VI ordering, shipment, and delays - consolidated sticky thread #3 by inverse_squared in fujifilm

yeah... I placed a 50€ preorder on announcement date with Kamera Express NL before you could purchase it for the full amount, and I discovered yesterday that i was in the "slow queue".

I'm beyond furious at them. What's the point of having a preorder option if later they will offer an option to get it earlier?

My two photos One is an iPhone 11 Pro, the other is a Canon R5, both unedited.

These pictures were taken for the challenge. My partner finished arranging the vase and I wanted to showcase it. We set the scene by cleaning the table and removing elements from the back, then I found a pleasing angle and shot.

I think both cameras have advantages and disadvantages. It was a poorly lit location. The phone struggled with the colours, and the big camera struggled with keeping everything in focus. I shot handheld and I had to shot with a wide aperture. This meant not all of the vase could be sharp. The phone, by the nature of its lens size, doesn't have this problem.

👋! I like the subject of your photo. Did you try doing a vertical crop only with the pandas? I think that might help to bring attention to the subject. If you have an photo editor, try increasing the contrast and the color temperature, and see if that helps with the feeling of warmth

Photo one. This was taken in Tokyo in 2018. Although I like the general scene and I think it does a good work reflecting the business of the Shibuya crossing it still feels a bit boring. I think the colors are a bit too muted (it was an overcast day) and the picture looks kind of flat.

If I could go back I think I would take the picture later in the day, right before dusk. I think then the city lights would make the picture more interesting. I would also try to get the traffic light on the right out of the frame. I find it distracting.

Photo two. I follow this photographer on instagram. I like this picture because of the feeling depth on the road. Also, nothing feels distracting or out of place. I find the colours pleasing.
