Any photographer building a working kit knows that buying glass can get expensive fast. Quality lenses aren’t cheap. Bargain lenses aren’t cheap either. Fujifilm’s least expensive lens, the XC 16-50 f3.5-5.6 OIS II – it’s least expensive lens, costs $200. And while it’s optics are of very good quality, it’s build quality is well, cheap. […]
Fujifilm is blowing out the X-H1 in an attempt to clear the channel. $999 for a top notch Fujifilm camera, with a battery grip and 3 batteries? Yes please! But a price like this usually means the X-H2 isn’t far off on the horizon. So let’s take a look at what was lacking in the […]
One of the cool benefits of being a Disney Passholder is that sometimes Disney gives you early access to new rides before the general public. Last weekend, Disney opened up Galaxy’s Edge at Hollywood Studios to Passholders, and we jumped on the chance to take in this new land before they opened it up to […]
Eight months on, and the Fujifilm X-T3 continues to impress. It’s become my default travel camera in most circumstances. I find that I can pack the X-T3 and between one to three lenses and have most of my focal lengths covered.

Since the X-T1, Fujifilm released the massively upgraded X-T2 which brought us an improved 24 […]
Before we begin, let me start by saying I really don’t like camera straps. Really. With all the cameras that I’ve owned over the years, I’ve never used the strap that comes with the kit (can you blame me?). If I’m using a strap at all, it’s usually one of the side sling straps that […]
When the Fujifilm X-T10 was released, I was a little perplexed. What was the point of a a smaller, compromised version of the X-T1? I didn’t get it. But as I started to read the early reviews, it started to sink in. This camera is an ambassador for what Fujifilm can do. Sure, the X-T1 […]
We recently returned from a 2 week stay in Ireland (with a satellite trip to London for a couple of days). What follows is a mis-mash of what we did with some tips and suggestions for anyone thinking of making the trip. Of course, being a photographer, much of this is photo related, but there’s […]
