Photograph and Camera talk

Been wanting to try out the Fuji system for awhile--finally picked one up at B&H in Manhattan.
Went with the xs20 with a 35 F2 WR lens.
pretty small set up that is really easy to carry around with no problem.
Digging it a lot so far

[weftyarn]

@Jett129 aaaand another one that I really dig!

@Andymac great one, love the wide format!

@dinobarnesberlin thats a really great compact and portable choice man, congrats! Looking forward to see some pics here

A few of the snaps I got on my trip to Japan back in October

Really happy I gave film photography a go for this trip and honestly pretty happy with the results

[weftyarn]

Amazing @Ross

Did you develop them just now? Must have been like opening a treasure

[Andymac]

See in the wild in Edinburgh

[Ross]

@weftyarn Was pretty busy between coming back and Christmas so didn't have the chance. Handed them into the lab just after Christmas and been impatiently waiting ever since - really was like have late Christmas presents watching them come through!

[weftyarn]

@Ross thats awesome mate! Can imagine the excitement seeing them for the first time!

Went out for dinner with @tody in Cologne and took some snapshots before and after.
Thanks again! Love this city.

@weftyarn They’re all really great. Just love your sense of composition and lighting. The lone guy walking down the street in the red hoodie is my favorite.

[Jett129]

In normal B&W or full color. It’s not all that interesting.

Haven’t been carrying the camera for a while now, but I recently rediscovered an old Flickr account which had some (old) favourite shots…

[Jett129]

@Nocturama Love the shot of the couple on the bike as you even caught the reflection in the guys helmet. Like how you panned and blurred the background as well.

[Nocturama]

@Jett129 - the shot was totally unplanned. I was sat in a riverside pub garden looking for shots of the river when these guys headed out of the car park - quick pivot and pan and it worked out well, given the settings already in the camera!

[weftyarn]

@Jett129 Thanks man. You know it means something! The red hoodie is also my favorite. Glad I was fast enough to get the shot, the situation came out of nowhere.

Really enjoying the new xs20 so far.
Coming from the Nikon world, the Fuji is so different.

[dinobarnesberlin]

[weftyarn]

Absolutely love those @dinobarnesberlin
Seems like the transition to Fuji went well haha! The look is instantly recognizable.

Third is my favorite. The softness makes the picture!

I totally resonate with his style of shooting everyday moments and his conceptual approach.

[dinobarnesberlin]

@weftyarn hey thanks man...you are right about that certain fuji look.
Im still trying out the simulations to see which one I like.
Its a learning curve---but pretty intuitive so far.

Im really enjoying that its feather light so no probs having it with me during the times that I take it with me.
That 3rd shot was just a happy accident --luck
