I live my X70, although do also find it a little wider than I'd like (just means I have to get closer to my subjects). Glad I got it before prices went too silly!

Sigma recently announced that they are launching several of their popular APS-C lenses also in EOS-R mount, so worth checking out the Sigma 18-50 f2.8 or some other lens for really compact and light setup. The crop mode on R8 gives only 9.4Mpix, but if that's enough, you get 80-90% benefits of APS-C size kit but without buying separate APS-C body.
@AllieBishopphotoАй бұрын
I honestly don’t like zoom lenses. I’m happy really with my setup as is. If sigma does some RF full frame primes I’ll probably look at them but otherwise I’m not interested

@birdman70832 ай бұрын
The problem with these older cameras being a bunch of circuit boards put together, is that they can go dead anytime and repairs will cost you more than the $600-$700 you paid for it. A quick search and you can see so many that are selling “For parts or repair”.

Alot of what you asked for is provided by the x-s20. The xe4 could also be a good option too. The x100vi also has some quality of life features in the software. Agreed: we NEED a new x70!!
@AllieBishopphoto4 ай бұрын
I personally don’t like the xs20 so it wasn’t for me. I’m very happy with the size and style of the Fujis I have (definitely don’t want a larger grip or body in general) but it would be cool to see some of these features in future models that I’m interested in when I can upgrade. But I would absolutely love an x70 successor the most haha

Allie, I really appreciate your videos. I am a Fujifilm shooter like yourself and we are big Disney fans as well. I did pick up a X100vi and wanted your opinion on an upcoming Disney trip. I am contemplating taking only the X100vi to an upcoming Disney trip during the Christmas Holiday however I have a bit of FOBO. I am wondering if i should bring my X-T5 with the 35mm F1.4 or 23mm F1.4 for low light nighttime Christmas lights portraits and or the 18-55. Too many options ! LOL I look forward to your response and hope you have a great day.
@AllieBishopphoto4 ай бұрын
Oh man! I understand the struggle!! I took my x100v as well as my xt30ii with some lenses and if I’m honest I really only used my x100v for 98% of the photos. While I loved the photos I got out of my xt30ii, I don’t feel like I would’ve missed anything had I not had it with me. (Other than maybe high quality parade photos with a telephoto lens but I really only did those because a family member is in the parade) I found that it was so easy just having my x100v around my neck all day to get any shot I needed and was so quick to put away for rides. I also used a pro mist filter which I think really added to the Disney vibe of my photos. Now all that being said, I’m headed out west soon and even though I’m sure I’d be perfectly happy with just my x100v, I’m still bringing my xt30ii and some lenses 😅 that’s more of a rare trip for me so I want to be sure I have whatever I could want.
@AllieBishopphoto4 ай бұрын
Also I think if I had to pick just one lens to bring on my xt30ii it would probably be my 35 f1.4 for portraits if needed.

It’s on continuous. Fuji does not refocus after each shot on the interval timer. Using manual is not what I want to do and would take too much time.

By chance I visited a secret photograpy shop carrying my x100V. I learned that they had stock of the V1 prior to the 28 Feb launch but could post on 26th, arrive on the 28th. I had no knowlege or plans to buy the V! Hell, I just bought it. Ibis for me is a huge win. Hand holding at quarter second opens up a load of possiblities. It also helps avoid using F16 etc. Doubling the sensor size made no difference for me. Have to say buying the camera re-kindled my enthusiasm, made me re-evaluate a lot of settings and recipies again. Now back on youtube for the first time in 6 months, checking out how different people set up their cameras. I'm a better judge of good and bad advice now. I've a 7400 shutter count in 15 days. Clearly a refresher for both the camera and me. Your x100V is still good.

The best camera is the one you have and works best for your creative style. Brand snobs are ridiculous. There's really no superior brand. In my opinion, photography is about the image and creative beauty, not a label.

Try zone focusing by acquiring the autofocus distance you need and then flicking to manual. The focus will stay locked on him as long as he doesn't move too far from the hyperfocal distance. Set the aperture between f/5.6 and f/8, giving you the best focus zone. Of course, you won't get that wide-open look. Regards B

Hi! I was watching your most recent unboxing video that you uploaded yesterday, January 5th. I’m looking into purchasing a fujifilm that has nice “recipes”. Do you have any recommendations? (I couldn’t comment on that video or I would have)
@AllieBishopphoto7 ай бұрын
Hi! Sorry about that! I’ve had some issues with bullying so I’ve turned a lot of comments off. With Fujifilm, any of them can do recipes and film simulations but I have noticed with the x70 it is limited because it is much older. I personally have only had 4 Fuji cameras (x70, x100f, x100v and xt30ii) and I’ve loved all of them. I think a Fuji with the xtrans 3 sensor and up would be best for a lot of the existing recipes as the older models don’t have all of the options like grain and color chrome effect, etc. personally I think the x100v is the best all around if you don’t need to switch lenses and want a good every day camera but I know there harder to come by at the moment.
