Nice one guys love it. This video was basically showing people how to practice which we all need to do to be ready for when those special moments come and the flower is a wedding flower on someones wedding day in the perfect condition and not just a flower in a garden shop. It's an important lesson. I actually took an hour during my work this week and did the same thing and went to a beach in the not so perfect conditions and forced myself to come up with some shots.

Something you said prompted this thought. Once I purchased my current camera, and held it, it made a world of difference. Grip is important... at least for me it was and is. My fingers are no longer jammed in between the lens and the grip. I enjoy holding this camera. However... The specs on this camera are not the top of the line Canon or Nikon or Sony or Fuji or Olympus. But what I want is to take stills, and this camera suits that well for me. And that is what I always have wanted. I have always wanted, like my original OM-1, is to just take pictures. Along the way there has been people like you. I have learned for having learned that of which I knew but of which I needed another to say... it seems. I previously used a Sony that I struggled with for the tight and small grip (though the specs were good). I have used my daughter's camera, a Canon 6D. I have been in stores and held other camera bodies. So it is that the Sigma SD Quattro H is now my camera of choice... solely for the fact that I want to hold it in my grip and take pictures. That Sigma has the Art lenses made the decision a fair amount easier. I am enjoying the images (that I get right) from this camera. And it is all attributed to how it feels in my grip. Just saying. I am enjoying photography more now that I had been for admitting that I hated holding the other cameras. This camera is not a struggle, but an extension.... a part of me.

@MikeBrowne 7 жыл бұрын
That is a fantastic observation Gerard Kuzawa. The camera has to be an extension of you and I think finding one that fits in your hand right with the controls you want easily accessible is THE NO 1 MOST IMPORTANT THING. The brand is secondary... MIKE

Great video Mike. Just been shooting with the XT-2 with the 55-200mm and tried similar images as yours and am pleased with the results. Didn't think of using this lens to try these images. I don't know if you have tried the Samyang 100mm Macro on the XT-2 i find it to give great results also I tried my Nikon mount Sigma 150mm Macro on the camera and find it great when using focus peaking. Thank you for this video, really got me thinking through my image taking more.

Hi Mike. Great video. As someone who has an X-T2 and and various other Fujifilm cameras I was really surprised at the tech fail comments. Why do you think it struggled? I have used my old X_T10 in similar situations and never had a problem. In the rare situations that I had a problem in auto I just flipped back to manual.

I guess I'm so used to the instant accuracy and speed of the my nikon DSLRs the XT-1 seems slow by comparison. I don't like manual focus with the EVF because I find it hard to tell if it's properly focused or not, especially in strong light. Still a great little camera though and I shoot more with it than anything else... MIKE

Hi Mike. If you love the X-T1 and you do want the speed I would recommend trying the X-T2 it's an order of magnitude better at AF etc. I guess a blend of new sensor, processor software whatever. Ha ha ha why do Fuji users turn in to salesmen!!!!!

Hi Jeremiah Dauphinais. The camera doesn't really have isues, it's just not as good at very accurate pin point focusing as a DSLR. Seems to be a common problem with mirrorless cameras. In normal circumstances it's fine. One of those things I'm afraid - there is no perfect camera because there's always some things we like and others we don't on all of them. I did a rare review of the XT-1 when I first got it, link below if you're interested... MIKE www.photographycourses.biz/videos/reviews-and-help/reviews/Mirrorless-Cameras-Pt3

Great info on why to use a zoom lens for flower photography. However, I couldn’t help wondering why you didn’t shoot in manual focus mode. Manually focusing removes the lens from hunting alternative focus points, whilst allowing the opportunity to experiment with multiple composition options. Just a thought anyhows...cheers

Another entertaining video and the first one to cause me to regret an action. I use Pentax cameras. One of my first lenses was a weather resistant 50-200mm lens. I never got stellar results so I sold it in a recent consolidation exercise. My photography has since moved on a step, thanks in no small part to these videos, and I am wondering if I would now find the lens more rewarding. This video certainly demonstrated the value of a nice, compact, mid range zoom and I have a horrible feeling I may shortly be buying another copy of the lens. The moral is to know your kit. I suspect I didn’t really know what I had before I let it go and that is such a shame. Thanks again Mike. I love these Mike Browne shorts :) they are just packed full of great stuff :)

Update, I bought the 50-200mm lens. It is to all intents and purposes a kit lens so I was not expecting razor sharpness but a DoF sandwich (& other Brownean techniques) showed it is capable of good results with a little luck and a chunk of application. It will make a useful addition to my bag. It also showed again that you do not need to spend a fortune to get a good photo.

To me your shots of flowers in this light look great: it is confusing though. If I post a landscape, including intimate landscapes of a tree or flower, on a website that I use for critique people will pounce on the exif data and say “wrong time of day”. Sometimes I feel that they are not looking at the shot itself but just reading from a text book. It would be interesting if you were to compare your flower shots taken in bright sunlight with the same shots taken under some sort of shade such as a translucent diffuser, then give us your thoughts?

I see you held on to the XT1 after borrowing it from Fuji a couple of years ago. I just watched your review of it again and all the 'negatives' you mentioned are addressed in the XT2, as you probably know. Focus is better as well and (but do not pin me down on it) I believe focus during zoom in video mode is now possible as well. So that should greatly reduce the 'fiddling around' you did with it in this video. Lovely little camera it is though. The 55-200 is not a lens I am super excited about though; it's a fine lens but by no means as sharp as my other fujinon lenses. I bought it second hand so perhaps there's a history to it that I do not know. I'll try to reproduce the shot you took here and see if I can match the sharpness you achieved. In either case, thank you for this video which was well done as usual. Keep up the good work :-)

What about the light? Isn't it too harsh? What about a polarizer?

A poslariser won\'t change the qualities of the light in this respect Joao. It'll darken and remove a bit od glare when at 45 degrees to sun, but neither of these were shot at 45 degrees so it wouldn't do much at all... MIKE

You could make the light better and softer if you had a willing friend who could hold a diffuser over the top of the subject, just thought it was worth mentioning.

I am probably in the minority, but I prefer flowers taken in this sort of light. I find the ones taken in 'perfect' light to be rather deadpan and uninteresting. Great video as always!
