I know this is a late comment.... I have 4 leica cameras. I recently bought an x-Pro2 because it's just such a joy to use. Versatile. Incredibly user-configurable. I bought the Fuji adapter to use my M lenses on the x-Pro2. But, the Fuji 35mm f1.4 that I bought with the camera is amazingly sharp and as good as anyone would hope to have. I'm quite impressed with Fuji cameras and lenses.

@WoodenAxle Күн бұрын

Oh yeah, that 35mm is a beauty. How does it compare to your Leica glass?

@QRPSchool Күн бұрын

@@WoodenAxle honestly, from my initial photos, I don’t think there is much of a difference. If I didn’t already have the Leica lenses, I wouldn’t feel the need to buy them for this camera. The Fuji lenses are good! I’m not much a snob when it comes to these things. I love my Leicas, but nearly all of the greatest photos taken in the last 50 years were NOT taken with German glass, right? The hardware does make a difference but someone who truly understands light and composition can pick up a Pentax K-1000 and make great photos. I have a little Sony RX100V that is pocket-sized with a Zeiss lens that produces incredible images. To my way of thinking, it’s all good. I can enjoy the simplistic aesthetic of the Leica M but also appreciate the well-designed and fun experience of the solid, supremely configurable X-Pro2. A camera with Film Stock Bracketing??? So cool… Those of us who are in our 60’s (and beyond) have had some wonderful cameras to play with over time!

I bought GFX 50R and I was contemplating selling all Sony cameras and other gear... but for night walks Sony a7sII is unbeatable :D

You're so right - buy the camera you actually want... it's taken me [about a thousand years] to work this out, but having just purchased an xpro 3, I finally have. I did a shoot with my sony A7r3 this morning, and it was mint - super mint - it's never put a foot wrong, but do I love it? No (well, kinda, but it's not 'love'). Thank you Mr Wooden Frames - this video spoke to me - and finally I bought the camera I wanted. Will I use it profedsionally - maybe, but that's not what it's for - it's for my heart, and my soul - my well-being. It's beautiful. Fullstop. Greetings from New Zealand... and thanks - you're a wise man.

I was a canon guy picked up xpro2 and damn ive been missing out the xpro2 feels great the recipes are awesome it majes me want to shoot

@aaronmarine7059 15 күн бұрын

I mean honestly, at f/1.2 just remember that you are shooting with a vignette and remember to shoot with a specified crop region. This way when you post process, you can mark anything with at a specific aperture to always crop to a certain size. OR learn how that vignette can play into your shots. There are countless times I have added vignette to draw attention inward in a shot. other than that, it's virtually not there at anything above f/8, so you have a LOT of work room with this lens lol. I personally think for the price, it provides extra creative workflow options than just point/shoot/done.

I like the retro/modern look of the TT Artisan better (never had the fuji for real), but that vigneting get really annoying some times. Far for my main lens but it's the one on my camera, cuz it's still a very good wolk around, every day lens on a small body.

Great vid. Good to know your results! As a Mitakon 85mm and 63mm owner these have pretty similar results. I haven't had much success adapting 35mm lenses myself with the ones over tried. But was also very please with the Minolta 58mm f1.2 myself. The lens is surprisingly warmer off the bat, and has had the least amount of vignetting to me. The Mitakon lenses also have a warmer tone as compared to modern Fuji lenses, but the Minolta is twice as warm.

@WoodenAxle 2 ай бұрын

I’ve heard good things about the Minolta on GFX. I had that lens and adapted it to Canon years ago. I loved it, but man was it soft. Might have just been my copy.

@jeroenbouman9430 2 ай бұрын

Think I really need that Mitakon! Do you always shoot it wide open? And if you do stop down, do you focus wide open?

@WoodenAxle 2 ай бұрын

For creative work I’ll shoot wide open 99% of the time. The clickless aperture on the Mitakon makes it easy to adjust the setting on accident when changing lenses frequently, that and wanting to replicate the look of a 6x7 was why I shot everything wide open for this test. The Mitakon does some great things at 1.8-2.8f as well. Since I made this video, I opted to sell the Fuji 63mm and went with the 50mm 3.5f.

Hi thank very much for the sweet video and showing us a personal view of a part of US- small town ,, Great Ending..

@WoodenAxle 2 ай бұрын

Glad you enjoyed it! I’ve not used the GH4 or GH5, or the 100S, but based on what I’ve read about all of them the 100S should be a good option. Definitely better photos, and I bet the video would be comparable. I’d see if you can afford the 100S I’d get it.

How would you compare it to the Fujifilm x100vi?

@WoodenAxle 2 ай бұрын

You know, as much as people like to compare them, I don’t think they are in the same category. If I had the money I’d own both of them. It all depends on what you’re going to use it for. If you want something that’s clinically excellent with excellent video capabilities, then it’s Fuji. If you want something that travels with you everywhere, makes images with incredible character, Ricoh all the way.
