- GR IIIx or GR IV for someone who's never had a GR?
I have the IIIx and use it more than my X-T5. If 40 feels natural, buy the 40. Ignore anyone who tells you there's a correct street focal length.
Post #4, in Other - Still no X-T6. Buy an X-T5 on Black Friday or am I going to regret it?
Good. Now go and use it.
Post #15, in Fujifilm - RawTherapee or darktable for X-Trans files, honestly?
Fuji JPEGs on holiday is the right answer, and keep the RAWs for the handful of night sky shots.
Post #7, in Editing & Software - viltrox 27 1.2 pro on an x-t5, anyone?
If you bought the X-T5 to be small, you already know the answer.
Post #2, in Lenses - A7C II or A7 V for travel, is the size difference actually noticeable in a bag?
Rafa's answer is the one that matters. The camera you don't leave in the bag.
Post #5, in Sony - First frost up the Harthope Valley, which one would you print?
Print the sheep. Nobody ever regrets the sheep.
Post #5, in Showcase - X-M5 or X-T30 III for my 14 year old? (skateboarding videos + photos)
Whichever one, assume it'll get dropped. A used one hurts less when it does.
Post #4, in Fujifilm - Classic Neg vs Reala Ace for autumn colour, post your recipes
Reala Ace. Classic Neg makes every tree look like it's in a 2019 Instagram feed.
Post #2, in Fujifilm - Compact camera for my dad's 70th, he's had a Lumix travel zoom for years
Check if it has a viewfinder before you buy, whichever one. A lot of people his age struggle with the screen in daylight, and it sounds like that's half his problem with the phone.
Post #4, in Buying Advice - Best action camera for scuba diving? And how do I stop my footage looking blue-green?
And don't expect anything usable from dive one. Look at the turtle with your eyes first.
