Nathan,
I've always loved your style-I think you inspired me to get the XT1. Have you any thoughts on the x100t with its high flash sync?
Great photos!

Thanks Johnny :)
I have the original X100 and the abilty to sync at high speed with full flash power is great. ( I am also somewhat spoiled in so far as I own a Hasselblad H4D and leaf shutters are the main reason I use medium fiormat. Location shoots in the scandinavian summer are definitely easier with a leaf shutter (Yes you can use ND filters and I use them often with my fujis when I need to (The 56 APD comes with a very nice multicoated ND6 in the box!)
All of the X cameras are really capable, its really the lenses that are the stars here :) I must say that sometimes I would be pleased if I had a few more pixels to work with, but I do have 1 metre by 1 metre prints hanging in the waiting room outside my studip along side prints of the same d´size made with the hasselblad. You can really only see the difference if you know what you are looking for. :)

Nice work, Nathan!

It works really well with flash.. some quirks though.. you dont get the full 4000 before you stop down some... cant remember the details but wide open I think ypu get 1/1000. f 4 1/2000 and f8 1/4000 but dont quote me! :D

The little built in flash is surprisingly useful too! :)

This was taken in strong backlight with the little built in flash...

After 2 weeks of shooting the X-T1, I feel more confortable now using the camera for my professional work. The files have enough “beef” for a double page in a glossy magazine.
The possibility to shoot at F1,2 in bright sunlight is really great! I used the X-T1 on the Maldives for an assignment. My main camera is still the D800.
Maybe Fuji will announce a 24 mpx X-T2 this year, who knows :)
Here’s a food shot: 35mm @F2
