My Fujifilm X-T1 in 2021
In order to improve my work, I often get carried away by the belief that a better camera is the synonym for better photos. About 5 years ago, I bought my first Fujifilm X-T1 with an XF56mm F1.2 and an XF50mm F2. Luckily I did not sell it when I…

THE FUJIFILM X-T1, by Rupert Marlow
SLOWLY BUT SURELY I bought a Fuji X-Pro1 as soon as the local Calumet had one in stock. I hadn’t used it, I hadn’t read much about it, other than about the fancy new (at the time) sensor but the one thing I had seen was Zack Arias’ notes on…

Premium/ Bokeh – Life Past F1.4
When I started photography, fast glass was something almost unobtainable. Voigtlander released a Leica M mount $1000 F1.1 “Nokton”, and that was about as entry-level as it got. For 0.95 the only affordable option was the Canon TV “Dream” lens, which was priced in the multiple of thousands. I made…
Premium/ A designer approach to landscape photography
Landscape photography can be one of the most straightforward genres for a photographer to get started, but to master it, requires a lot of hard work, continuous learning and persistence.

Premium/ The Fujifilm X-T3: A perspective from an X-T2 owner
Well, how to tackle this? That was something that has been on my mind for a couple of days now. Let’s face it, the internet is full of the “new” X-T3 reviews, comparisons and hands-on experiences. So here I am, thinking that I can add something to some of the…
Premium/ Fujifilm Deliverance
As many of us already know and feel, making photography with Fujifilm is a powerful, pleasant and liberating experience. I will try to explain the best I can what is this sort of freedom and why is it so. However, I think this story can apply to those photographers who…

The «cliché» of Brittany
A Winter road trip in Brittany… I imagine that sentence shouldn’t be a dream for many people. The grey sky, the wind, the rain, the cold, the fog. This region of northwestern France has always had a terrible reputation for its weather. Me being the first, when I think about…
When the mountain calls, I won’t pick up
It’s midnight in the mountains. A storm is raging around us. Lightning and thunder are shaking the earth. Small stones are crumbling from the ceiling of our cave. I can feel water dripping on my head. And the rain blowing in my face. After three intense days in the mountains,…

Feminine Portraiture with Fuji – The search for the optimum tool
Before my switch to Fuji System, I used a Canon 5D Mark I and an old Japanese manual lens, the Super-Takumar 85mm 1.8. I always wanted to try shooting in full-frame format and the old Canon 5D Mark I was the only option which was affordable for me. I used…
