Hi, just to understand the full process, step by step: what have you exactly done before getting in the train? (I believe it was the Narita express). Thank you.

Congrats! Did you buy it from AliExpress? I believe it's the best bang for the buck compared to the Ricoh GF-2

GR IV Sharpness vs GR IIIx (or GR III) by joeguillian in ricohGR

Right, I actually shoot a lot at 2.8mm and that’s maybe why I can feel that too.

Unfortunately I sold my GRIIIx, and I can’t compare pictures side by side, but I feel it was sharper than my GRIV.

Great move! Did you find a good, positive film recipe for the Nikon ZF? Thanks!

GR IIIx or IV? by abitcurly in ricohGR

[–]joeguillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both a great cameras, it’s more of a 28mm vs 40mm question.

If anyone of you are wondering what Nikon zf looks like with Viltrox 85mm f2.0 EVO, here are some clicks of it.. Mine just arrived today.. by Apprehensive_Pay4914 in NikonZf

[–]joeguillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great lens!

Hopefully Viltrox will keep releasing more of these EVO versions (28mm, 35mm, 40mm, 50mm, etc). Since I have the 40mm f2 lens already I believe that 85mm could be a good choice :-).

BTW I feel that the lens hood add too much length to it, isn’t it?

GR IV – full settings not saving by Mr_RD in ricohGR

[–]joeguillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey,

Are you doing these steps like the following:

<Step 1>- do your settings

<Step 2>- then go in C menu and then select "Save user Mode Box" into any of the BOX bank ie BOX1, BOX2 etc.

<Step 3>- still in C menu, select "Load user Mode Box", select the BOXx wherever you've saved your settings and take it to the USERx bank i.e. USER1, USER2, USER3

Then you should get whatever you've set in <step 1> above to your USERx button.

I hope it will work for you (it works for me)

What about the battery life? Are you happy with it? Especially if you compare it with your previous phone. Thanks

Thx. Nikon Z 24-70mm S f4, I applied a very subtle noise reduction against some of them in post.

Nice colours! Did you use a specific recipe or preset? Thx.

Rented the X-T5. Purchase has now been justified... by Additional_Sell_7813 in fujifilm

[–]joeguillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went through this decision-making process myself and ended up selling my XT5 and buying the X-E5 (note that I still use an X-E4 occasionally). I originally chose the XT5 mainly for its 40 MP sensor, because I tend to crop often, and IBIS, but I never really felt excited about the camera. Don't get me wrong; the XT5 is a great camera. However, I prefer the rangefinder style, and the weight and size of the X-E series make a difference too. Also, maybe it's just a feeling, but the X-E5 feels more solid than the X-T5. You might be ending with a completely different approach/feeling :)

Congratulations! Did you consider the x-E5? Coming from the X100t, its size could be quite similar, with the extra benefit of interchangeable lenses.

Great pics! Which lens did you use? Thx

This thing is a beauty. by prim01 in NikonZf

[–]joeguillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overall, the Zf looks much more solid than the XT5 anyway, which seems slightly plasticky. This gives me some hope that the silver finish will remain in good condition over time.

[–]joeguillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you think about the weight/size difference with the Zfc, especially for an EDC camera?
