Show us some footage already!! I seem to recall that you were one of those people The thing with this is that of course this is my lens and I've obviously had it on a bunch of cameras so I'm familiar with how it looks so it was a bit wow how much new wow there was. I'm not talking about wow when bringing it in to Lightroom and pixel peeping etc either but wow as in immediately just seeing it on the rear LCD. It was very hot though so we could have just been hallucinating. kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsemiterrific Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 So, Andrew, would a full set of vintage FD lenses work well on this camera? If so, how well would they stabilize, and what sort of adapter would they require? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the recipe for a good vlog is 1) being interesting and 2) having hijinks. I haven't met either of you, but I'm willing to say you've likely got both! kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. If its any consolation, there is a thread on here somewhere where someone asks if anyone owns the 35-70mm and I replied saying that I regretted not buying it as I'd gone for the wider range of the 28-85mm instead. However, I made that statement a good six months after I'd actually, erm, bought the 35-70mm and clearly completely forgetting I'd done so ! Not that I have an addiction or anything. 27 minutes ago, kye said: I second @kaylees suggestion of a vlog... I think the recipe for a good vlog is 1) being interesting and 2) having hijinks.

Not that I have an addiction or anything. HA! I've been there too. Bought something then completely forgotten you'd bought it. Happens far more often than I'd care to admit. Gets even worse when you buy it a SECOND TIME, because you want it, and thought you didn't have it..... kye and BTM_Pix 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping we can re-enact the camera shop incident from this most recent trip as it really did set the benchmark for what can happen when you have lens choice overload. kaylee and Andrew Reid 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted February 28, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted February 28, 2020 It puts buying the same lens twice because you forgot you already own it in the shade. That's for sure. Good job the shop owner in Barcelona was an honest fellow, he could have played it to his advantage! All the F1 stuff is done, and I've got race car fuel all over me... I am a bit combustable and face has gone red. That's what happens I guess when you have 150 laps each from 22 cars circling you for 3 days. The GFX 100 is worth its weight in repeat lens purchases. At least I can now stop buying cameras! It's the end-game* * For 6 months! ND64, kaylee, Juank and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbetancourt Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Tks Andrew! Can you go a bit deeper of what you mean about the Hasselblad X-Pan look? Some sample shots? I would be very nice to get a digital equivalent of that incredible camera. Much appreciated, Pablo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted August 28, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted August 28, 2020 Looks like a good option for the GFX 100. Most 85mm full frame lenses do cover, but surprised even the anamorphic will work. Now if only Fuji would give us the 4:3 aspect ratio in video mode.
