These old sensors can poop out. Images become ruddy looking. Contrast builds up and a crossover comes into the colors. Unfixable in Photoshop. I had some early sexy Samsungs..I probably still have them along with some early Panasonic LMC somethings. The Panasonic had the best glass. All non usable now. What's lasted is the Canon Elph 310. What will help you with these is keep your cameras away from pocket lint. The zoom lenses will suck the dust back to the sensor, and you'll never get it off. Put the camera in some kind of zip lock, or something...The 310 did come in a very cool case.
"because sometimes it takes more than the entire solar system swirling into the void of space to impress me"... 1) could we get a check on that? 2) populous says;... same my guy, same.
Not to take away from the gravity of the topic of the video, but you remind me of Ricky Gervais. You have that fantastic below the surface humor that can't but break through as funny cynicism! One can't look away. Keep it up young man!
I use one of these stuffed into a fairing pocket on my bike, just for things I come across on my journeys. So far, I've had little to complain about, but the lack of a VF is a bit of a pain in the arse. I'd not buy another compact without a VF, it's such an important thing for me.
I've owned one for years, its spent the last ten years as an ornament in a cabinet. The reason the dreaded EO2... Save you money and buy any of the modern top ranked Japanese cameras
Thank you for the good laugh, you have a great sense of humor! I bought a GFX 50r yesterday and am looking forward to it’s delivery. I can’t afford any lenses for it yet (really can’t afford the camera either 🫠) but I have a few lenses I can adapt so I’ll put what little money I have left into an adapter or 2. Especially looking forward to trying my Canon 50 1.2 ltm which I have an ltm to M adapter for already so just need an M to GF adapter… I hope this works. But anyway just wanted to say great video and your dry humor made my day!
I’m faking it in-camera, since I don’t have it converted to full spectrum. it’s just a custom picture profile I made in canon’s software (im a canon guy, yes) that I loaded onto the camera and it’s pretty nice in terms of red trees, but I still have yet to nail the blue skies. It is a matter of basically just picking colours and shifting them a lot (which probably won’t be the most authentic) but it looks good with the “shade” white balance. “Cloudy” gives more of an autumnal look somehow, with patches of yellow in the trees even though I was only aiming for reds, the rest kind of looks dull and almost colourblind if you choose a bluer white balance
XPAN's are simply too much of gamble for me at this point. I only gamble with money I can afford to lose ...because I usually do. With no ability to repair the XPAN or TX-1, I'm not sure who is buying these cameras. But I know they sure as hell have a lot more money than I do. That or the feel a lot more lucky than I do.
I sold the 23mmf2 (didn’t like it at all, I find the bokeh of the 18mmf2 much much better), and now I'm selling the 50mmf2 (amazing lens in every way but my least used one) the 35mmf2 lacked something so I got the 35mm1.4 instead (my favorite lens of all time) the 18mmf2 I really love and will never sell it. So 18mmf2 and 35mm1.4 will be my only Fujifilm primes due to the feelingin the images and prints. I tried most of them. For wide shots I shoot Laowas 9mm 2.8 and I use a Konica Hexanon 50mm 1.7 for portraits, I've been with Fujifilm for over 6 years now. I will never sell my XE1 or XT2 nor the 35mm1.4 or the 18mmf2. Everything else I don’t really need. All new Fujifilm cameras feel too digital and clean in the files. From XS10 to XT5 I still own the XS10 but wouldn't swap my XT2 for a XT5 (I tried xt5 this year) Right now I’m only photographing with yhe XT2 znd 7artisans 35mm1.2 mark2 for a year.

4:28 what the heck it is a seriously beautiful footage, I won't mind putting it in a film (short) If I ever made one, it looks so natural, I'm sold , I need one of this camera
This was great to watch, especially when winding down after a days work. Wonderful antidote to the normal gear reviews. Thanks Adam I look forward to more.
