Steve B found an excellent write up by Zack, on his wholesale adoption of the X series from Fuji. He's now been DSLR free for two whole months!
Fuji x100s Follow Up Review :: Life Without DSLRs • Photography By Zack Arias
Zack was an early adopter of the X100, and did some write-ups for Fuji as that camera gained momentum.
He's since taken on-board the X-Pro1, and X-E1 as backup, and a couple of the new X100s cameras.
He's a traveling pro-photographer, and it's greta to see what he does with the equipment and 3rd party add-ons - especially for lighting.
This shot was taken with 3pm backlit sun - using the built-in 3 Stop ND on the X100s, a cheap(ish) 3rd party flash, and a small hand-held umbrella set-up.
Zack also compares the output from the X cameras to the usual suspects in regards to final image quality in print - a key concern for him, as that pays the bills!
He's not a paid spokesperson, but he does use and like Fuji's gear - so a good read all around.
