The uninhibited and the redundant ones: Roaming with X-A1 and X-M1 in 2024
Let me jump to conclusions this time (with elaborations further down): these two bodies are my most used cameras. They work well as a pair. Their size, ease, straightforwardness, and, most importantly, lack of customizable options, render them very suitable for my use (shooting only JPGs, with only two settings…
The Mesmerizing Glow

Street Photography with Fujifilm’s XF56mm f/1.2R
I love street photography, and I love wide lenses. The last time I shot with something longer 35mm was back in 2008. I was just starting to learn the basics of photography with my dad’s Nikon D200 and 18–55mm zoom. I shot a few frames at 55mm, and that was…
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…
