In The Museum, X100 vs RX100 vs X-Pro 1
FUJIFILM FinePix X100 (23mm, f/2, 1/60 sec, ISO2500)
SONY DSC-RX100 (11.32mm, f/2.2, 1/40 sec, ISO800)
FUJIFILM X-Pro1 (18mm, f/2.8, 1/30 sec, ISO1600)
Three very different cameras – one location.
- The cameras: The Fuji X100, the Sony RX100 and the Fuji X-Pro 1.
- The location: The Natural History Museum in Vienna
I shot those cameras on different days so light is very different but my main topic is not image quality it is shooting experience. How does it feel shooting them? Do they deliver in poor light? Which camera is most fun? Which one is the most annoying? But of course also about: How do the images compare in real life? Continue reading
Mother-Motherland Monument, Kiev, Ukraine January 2012
FUJIFILM FinePix X100 (23mm, f/5.6, 1/160 sec, ISO200)
One business trip about a year ago to Kiev. In January. Thanks to global warming it was too warm and now snow but still unpleasant wet, cold and grey. There are places on earth you immediately like when you first step out of the airport. There are place that grow to you. And there are places that are just unpleasant and stay so. To me the Ukraine is such a place. Continue reading
Rattle and Hum, Thoughts about the X-Pro 1
SONY NEX-5 (39mm, f/8, 1/60 sec, ISO250)
I got my Fuji X100 in September 2011 but it became my most used camera in that year. Even more impressive when you consider that it had the sticky aperture blade – problem, needed to be sent to Germany for repair and missed a trip to Moscow.
It was also by far my most used camera in 2012 but I doubt that it will be my most used camera in 2013 and the reason is simple: I got myself the Fuji X-Pro 1 for Christmas. Continue reading
XMAS 2012
FUJIFILM FinePix X100 (23mm, f/2, 1/60 sec, ISO400)
another year over….
A very tough one because death and disease played major roles. It affected both family and close friends. A year where I had to accept that death and disease belongs to life. No one alive today would be here if not millions died before.
When we are young death and disease mean little to us. At least for the lucky ones born in a rich country. As we grow older they become more important and we start to fear them. Till the day where we accept that they belong to life. I’m almost 44 years old now and finally grown up.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Take your time before you grow up.
