    This chubby, somewhat-arthritic 81YO just ordered a...

    Well, Mr. Flighty--that's me, known also as Mr. Excess according to my late wife--had 5 Batises for a few weeks but then spent 4 days in the Palouse of Washington state.. I discovered that I am NOT the guy cut out for all-prime lenses.. Ordered another Sony 24-70 and will keep the Batis 18 and...

    ...Sony A7R V, 24-70/2.8 GM II, and a Zeiss Batis 18/2.8 and 85/2.8.. Along with an adapter and my Canon 70-300/4-5.6 non-L , the entire system will weigh only 7-1/2 pounds.. I HAD to come up with a high-rez, lower-weight system than the GFX100s-based one.. I hope the small width between the...

    Fuji GFXes and my willpower...or lack thereof

    buildbot: "It’s a manual focus adapter, aperture control only..." Had I known that--that is, had Kipon clearly labled that adapter--I would never have bought it or the Mamiya lenses.. But...too late, now, for me--I've again terminated my medium-format phase, even after receiving the GFX100s II...

    Fuji GFXes and my willpower...or lack thereof

    cumin, what's the secret combination of switch positions that activates autofocus with this adapter, a GFX100s II, and any Mamiya 645AF autococus lenses? I've mounted both my 80 and 35 on the adapted camera and every time and switch position is still just manual focus.

    Fuji GFXes and my willpower...or lack thereof

    I'm getting SO close! The Kipon adapter and Canon 70-300 4-5.6 II (non-L) lens are on a mail-delivery truck for today, and the Mamiya 80 and 35mm lenses are here, as is the GFX100s II, which arrived Friday the 16th.. The latter appears to be merely an 'open box' return and looks brand new, in...

    Fuji GFXes and my willpower...or lack thereof

    cunim: That Kipon glares with my P1 lenses. Following suggestions on GetDPI I treated mine with flocking paper and I can now use my beloved 120 macro. Mutliple posts about it here, including this thread TY, cunim, I'll be alert.

    Fuji GFXes and my willpower...or lack thereof

    Well, after reconfiguring my Fuji 40MP X-H2 system and commiting to get rid of all my medium-format stuff, I've FAILED! I ordered* a used GFX100s II yesterday (the 12th) and might see it this week.. Before that, I carefully redesigned the system for lowest weight, and one of the things against...

    I've repurchased my former Fuji GFX 100S body plus Fuji 32-64/4, 100-200/5.6...

    "How do you like the Rogeti geared head?" I LOVE it! It does everything I want done and is very easy to use.. Other than my Gitzo tripod, it's the longest-lasting piece of foto gear I have. Had one of those black, square, gear-driven mount years ago but couldn't tolerate its difficulties.

    SOLD-Mamiya 645 AF APO 300/4.5 but ULD 105-210 still available works on Phase XF

    I'll take both, pls.. How about I mail you a personal check for $600 and you deposit it and wait until you're comfortable that it has cleared and then ship them to me? I'll PM you with my detail info, and you're welcome to call.. FWIW, I'm FINISHED with PP.

    I've repurchased my former Fuji GFX 100S body plus Fuji 32-64/4, 100-200/5.6...

    Well, I sure like to play with this stuff.. After going thru a new GFX100s II and Fuji 1.7s in 55- and 80mm, I'm back, at least temporarily, to the 45-100 'middler'.. Am also reconsidering (for perhaps the dozenth time) the trio of Contax 645 Zeisses I have.. After another kind soul reminded me...

    Fun with MF images 2025

    A quick pic from the other day, shot in an abandoned lot a couple miles from my house.. I've been driving by it for years...have been in my house in Phoenix, Arizona, USA 45 years...and this little guy first startled me and then posed! What a cutey! GFX100S, Canon EF 70-300/4-5.6 L IS +...

    I've repurchased my former Fuji GFX 100S body plus Fuji 32-64/4, 100-200/5.6...

    Well...life goes on and I flit about my 3 hobbies.. Still have the GFX100S but now with Fugi zooms in 45-100 (my walkabout lens if there is such a thing) and 20-35 plus a Canon EF 70-300/4-5.6 L IS plus fringer adapter that works far better than I thought it would.. (Sold the 45, 32-64, and...

    ...and Contax/Zeiss 80/2 with fringer adapter.. Have ordered a Fuji 20-35/4.. I guess I should get off my butt and take some pictures! Since Salt River Project is releasing much water into the Salt River, probably I'll soon be getting to the river in SW Phoenix.

    Fun with the Fuji X ___!

    VERY nice! I love the composition, color, contrast, and overall gloominess.. Wish it were mine. 😀
