Xpro1 still a great B&W camera.

Me too, man. I have two. Have you tried the HP viewfinder for it?

90 f2

Good video. I do have the 50mm f2 but i don’t use it much. I had the Tamron 17-70 and its good for situations where you can’t easily change lenses. But I didn’t use it enough so i sold it and f2.8 is just not enough on apsc cameras for low light events. As for the two lenses you compare i have considered them but i have the sigma 56 f1.4 and the Viltrox 75 f1.2 and they cover my needs. I have considered changing the sigma 56 for the fuji 56 f1.2 but can’t justify the price yet but i would like the aperture ring on the fuji. But the sigma is light and compact with excellent image quality.

I’m looking at an X-Pro 3 tomorrow, and the intention is to cancel my X100Vi pre-order. Like you, I’m trying to slow down and enjoy my time out on the streets, or wherever. In my opinion the X-Pro 3 will give me a much more connected experience. I say stick with the XP3.

As well as all the points he made, I'd like to add the following. If anything, 2024 is a great time to buy the X-T5. 1. The X-T50 just dropped and unless your main concern is compactness, the X-T5 is the better buy (it has current offer where I live) and only 200 bucks more expensive than the X-T50. 2. After the numerous firmware updates since launch, the X-T5 has benefited from several additional features and improvements

Its not easy to forget even when im trying my best to do just that God bless you always

Does the SL2-S focus faster than the SL2 in most situations? I’ll be shooting with the Leica SL 28mm APO lens. I mainly shoot portraits…kids and family sessions. Thank you!

love the pacing! love your channel

I feel part of the photographer journey is trying LOTS of different gear. I have been on this journey as well, and for me it all crashed to the point where I looked at the very basics and decided what made me the most happy to use, and went with that. Limitations and all... without limitations the artform of photography is lost. Looks like you are well on your photographic adventure at this point, keep making amazing images!

Yes! and I`l do the same mistake...

Hey in case you're on the latest firmware and feel like the AF is not as good as it should be, it's an issue with the firmware. Fuji has said that an update should come soon. The update will also include the Reala Ace simulation.

ive been slowly paring down what lenses i carry with my x-t5. lately ive taken to using alot of old olympus om glass alongside fuji and third party pancake lenses. the om 100mm f2.8 in particular is such a cool little lens and i think its going to stick around for a while

hi jeremy !! absolutely love the slow pace of the video. feels like a warm hug

Sorry for that „dumb“ question, but which Ricoh is it? Great stuff! Greetings from Germany! ✌️😊

Yo lol I found this on time. Got a 200 pro and has does not work but now oh yes😊

Love this. I think that as you pointed out, with any art there is this constant gravity thing pulling us down into just sort of doing what works or what, “gets the job done”. Maybe it’s some combination of interruption and intentionality that brings us back - makes us weightless in a sense, less susceptible to that constant gravitational pull. Here for the work of finding tools and methods that make it new again.

I've always been a bit of a control freak... I shoot Manual 100% of the time.. I just like controlling all of the variables

Your third time works wonderful. It was worth how your work..❤️

I agree.. the best creators also find ways to continually stay curious!

Third time's a charm apparently because you nailed this concept! Love ya JG

Jup erwin is a legend. It like every photo is a window to a fairytale

I bought the xpro-1 + 18mm f/2 back in 2012. It just was fine. I still don't understand any complaints about this lens. Currently I 5:37 use the xe-4 + kipon 35mm f/2.4 manual focus. Different set up. I also recommend the fuji 18mm f/2. It'a cool and fun to use. Excellent image quality and personality.

Nice. Thinking about throwing this one on my old XT3 for a tight mtn. biking rig.

Love it! I’ll be eloping with the love of my life in the red river gorge this year. I can’t wait, it’s such a beautiful place.

Condivido quello che hai detto. Adoro questo 18mm f2 mi segue tutti i giorni.

Thanx brother!!!

Awesome video!

I got into pro cameras in 2009 and had ff Nikon setup. 35 50 and 85 all f1.4. When I review those pictures, they are still stunning today. But in 2019 I sold all my gear to fund the Leica q2 which I adore. Recently picked up the x100vi and while I can’t let go of my q2 yet, as I got older, I found myself seeking a smaller and lighter camera because I simply wasn’t dragging the weight around. Even left the q2 on recent trip to Japan. My advice is, if you’re not using it, let it go and move onto one that will entice you to bring that “edc” one.

2 things... 1. I've never owned anything Leica branded, so you're ahead of me! 2. I like this office angle!

SORRY ABOUT THE AUDIO #fired

Hi Jeremy Like you, I love this Lens. Been using all day today documenting canals and bridges here in London. Great video sir👍🏽

i got a xpro3 last year as my first camera and i love it. got a couple film cameras too, so i've been slinging one of each film and digital over my shoulder and it's a great time. spray with the fuji and then if there's something that looks special, i'll use a frame on the pentax. the no screen on the back of the fuji is so great, keeps me in the moment.

I had a Brightin Star 35mm on my Xpro3 for awhile but I never liked how the XPro3 worked with OVF manual focusing. I only use the OVF and really never liked how the XPro3 manual focuses with a screen on the lower right. It seemed to unorthodox compared to center focusing rangefinder style. I went back to a AF lens, I bought the TTartisan 35mm AF and just use the OVF with the focus acquired box and just trust the camera is in focus. Ill leave manual lenses to my other cameras like my M240 or full time EVF like my Zfc.

sir this video had no right being as absolutely cool as it was. I was taken in immediately. You and your son remind me of myself and my oldest boy. And he loves bikes too.

My favorite might be the one of the Cameo signage.. something about that black and white working so well with that framing.. love it, man!

Out chere flexin on the Ricoh OK OK 💪🏼

I'm 100% with you man! Cameras are temporary, lenses are forever (more or less) 😅 That being said... stoked to get your XPRO3 though haha

You might wanna try my voigtlander 35mm 1.4 m mount, super tiny…

I wish you could shorten video to make it clear and easy to follow. Too much. Keep going.

Good effort, but the background music is really distracting and detracts from the video.

Wow what a video. I am in the process of researching what mirrorless camera to go with. You made my decision even harder. I keep going back and forth between Fuji and Lumix

On the GFX the 45mm f2.8 is my go to. I also use a pinhole and a HOLGA on the medium format. X-Pro3 the XF16-80 is my all rounder carry. 23&35 f2’s, tele is the XC (x-tra cheap) 50-230mm, my favorite X lens is the TTARTISAN 50mm f1.2. It has character and works great SOOC. Surprisingly the little lens on my X-30 is incredible. My next lens someday is the GF100-200

No answers here unfortunately lol. I definitely understand and can relate to your thoughts though. Here are some things I do. Do POV, mount an action camera on your photo rig and focus on still photography and let the video capture that. To keep my sanity I don’t allow myself to dialog internally about what I want to say when I’m not on camera. Save it, write it down, audio record, but don’t let it occupy your mind in a negative way because it will. I’ve had 10,000 view videos and am quite proud of that. However, KZbin still slaps me with 30 view episodes. Working on KZbin is an art form for me. There are very few ways to share and meet other photographers these days. I applaud you getting out there and sharing 👏👏👏👏 It’s F’n hard to stick yourself out there!!! BTW, those 30 viewers are so important. Can’t say that enough. Focus your videos on them and keep on. Screw the algorithm bs. Take terrific photos instead.

WOW that's really good Jeremy 👍

XP3 is heaven, Voigtlander X manual lenses makes it great fun to use and so satisfying...

I want a walk around of the Jeep? Yellow JKU?

I wonder if it'd be a smaller bite for you to create these if you were to attempt to batch them? Say, Saturday mornings, you shot 2 KZbin videos. That's 2 weeks of your upload schedule in 1 day. I find that, for me, once it has been shot, I'm more motivated to finish it. So, shooting it is the barrier for me.

I sold all my Canon and L glass to move to Fuji after using an Xpro3. I love the glass they have, the weight and unobtrusiveness. The Xpro3 with that screen out of the way is love though.

I recently picked up this lens brand new from an unsold old stock. I have used it a while back for a review..but after using the x100VI recently for a review coming up, I decided to downsize my xt5 set up for street and loving this lens as it has quite some character..I'm glad I gave this lens a second chance :)
