safe haven for tiny formats

Beautiful shot, tuco. Is that the Velvia simulation?

Thanks. No, it is processed from the RAW file. The pancake is on the lens roadmap sometime this year.

EDIT: And the pancake will be a 27mm/f2.8 which is 40mm equivalent

That is a lovely photo indeed. This is an old one of mine, obviously not up to the same standard.

Hot damn!

An X camera shooter shooting RAW? Who ever heard of such a thing?

Looks pretty darn good to me, Nguss.

Ha, yeah, first time for everything. Here are some first shots trying out the 18-55mm. One at 18mm and one at 55mm. At 18mm on the zoom, it is a sharper lens than the 18mm prime.

Looks darn good to me too, Nguss.

Thanks Barnninny, I am loving your large format urban landscapes especially at the moment. Pretty superb.

Thanks too Tuco. Every time I see one of your shots however is always get jealous and say 'DAMN'. You have some great shots on display.

I've heard good things about the 18-55. It's just too bulky for the way I use the camera.

It's all relative. The XP1 is a small camera to me. Much smaller and lighter than my DSLR or medium format film cameras I'd otherwise use.

Definitely true for me, as well. Just not as small as I'm looking for in a have-on-you-at-all-times camera.

Great shots, tuco and Nguss.
