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.

The emotional and the special ones: How (on earth) I’m still using the X-Pro1 and X100 in 2024
Back at the end of 2011/early 2012, while living as a student in the US, I made a purchase that (in retrospect) was formative. Having a relatively significant financial surplus in my bank account as a result of a government scholarship, I decided to invest in the Fujifilm X system…

Fuji X-T family
Can you live more than once?
One of the earliest memories from childhood I have is stargazing with my mum. I remember the crystal clear sky with the brightest stars I have ever seen.

He was a very clever man in his…
