FUJIFILM X-T1- BASIC 101


After my  third attempt to join this class since last year,I managed to get a seat yesterday.It was very popular because many of us got our Fujifilm X-T1 at the beginning of last year,2014.The seats available are 15 persons per session,but only 8 of us attended the tutorial yesterday.

I am one of the few who read the camera manual,and yet I did not undertand as much I have understood during yesterday tutorial.I was shown the many features of the camera that I never use since I got my X-T1 sixteen months ago.What a waste of time.I just used whatever features and buttons that I am more familiar to my previous DSLR Canon 400D.Reading the manual can be confusing and I found out that I misunderstood the usage of some buttons and features.Thank Good that I attended this tutorial and met a professional photographer  who came and joined my class.Mirrorless camera has a differrent way of taking and managing photos compared to the traditional DSLR where the pros were more familiar.Basic function of camera is the same,but firmware can vary a lot.My version is still 3.1 and now it is 4.0.

After attending this tutorial,I felt more confident to use my camera.My only regret is I should attend this course last year so that I didnot make more mistakes and make full use of the opportunities availlable for me in the last 16 months.On the other hand,my past year experience helped me to undertand my camera better.As they say,experience is the best teacher,especially bad and expensive one.

To fellow newbies and novices in photography,it is better to spend money on attending courses and buy books than buying new gears.Let us go shooting and have fun..Below are some snapshots at Nu Sentral,KL

KB WALK

I planned to have four days of Photowalking around Kota Bharu #KBWalk ,but due to unplanned family errands which I love doing for my  mother and son,I only managed to have two days with only less than 4 hours.Herewith I shared two photos taken behind Pejabat PAS. To do justice to the town,I need at least 7 full days and nights to capture the history  and culture of the place.My first attempt had revealed a lot more for me to explore,discover and capture.Another missing dimension I need to have with me before I embark on KBWalk is the history of Kota Bharu. It has to be another time..May be after Eidil Fitri.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MY IPHONE 14 ProMax VS FUJIFILM XT20

No camera is suitable for every occasion. Here is a simple comparison. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and I love both. When I go photowalking with friends, I use more smartphones than the Fujifilm XT20. FUJIFILM XT20 iPhone 14 Pro Max (Smartphone) vs Fujifilm X-T20 (Mirrorless) – Image Quality Breakdown IPHONE 14 PRO MAX 1. Sensor & Processing iPhone 14 Pro Max Uses a 48 MP quad-pixel sensor that down-samples to 12 MP by default; ProRAW unlocks full 48 MP output   . Features Apple’s “Photonic Engine” that enhances detail, color, and low-light performance via computational photography  . Produces excellent detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range—especially in daylight; however, images sometimes show over-sharpening on foliage/glossy textures  . DXOMARK cites strengths like vivid color, wide dynamic range, sharp detail, and low noise; potential drawbacks include clipping highlights and noise indoors  . Fujifilm X-T20 Features a...
