Hi, I have watched some of your videos and I have observed that there is a need for improvement in the editing of your videos I am a professional video editor and I can improve the editing of your KZfaq videos(by adding text animations, motion graphics, stock photos, stock videos, color grading transitions to your videos) that will keep your viewers engaged which will result in increased audience retention. Are you interested?

I have a TTartisan 25mm f/2 on my X-H2, and I still couldn't find a way to enable the focus peek other than by pressing the joystick button a couple of times, which I quite frequently have to look at the camera to find, and end up pressing up or down by mistake, which disrupts my shoot planning and creates a mini chaos in my head. Do you know if there's an easy way to enable the focus peek? Like by a button press? Many thanks!

Nice tips, merci. If I use the adapter for an M42 to X mount lens, should I set the focal length to what the lens says (50mm), or should I account for the crop factor? (50x1.6=80mm)? Should the length of the adapter also be added? (Sorry, newbie questions).

Always use the aps-c equivalent focal length, as this is relative to the sensor (so here 75mm, I believe it is 1.5x) That is if you use the adapter and not a speed booster
