Moving House

[Chris Dodkin]

Son #1 & family moved to a bigger house today - and in between carrying heavy boxes, I managed to grab a snap or two with the X100.

Here's the proud home owner emptying the UHAUL truck.

X100 RAW - PP in Topaz B&W

So, does this fit through the door then?

UHAUL (looking empty at last!)

ISO 800 shot as we returned the rental truck


Very very impressed with how clean the X100 shots are.

Crop from the first frame

Nice series Chris. I guess you were too weak to take any more!! I like the final portrait but really like the shot it was taken from - the way your son and ? are looking at the camera, very engaged.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Really nice shots.

Looks like as the photographic documentarian you managed to avoid some heavy lifting. Nicely done, Chris!

 

[Pete Askew]

He was directing operations - it would have been chaos otherwise of course!!

I was gonna say it doesn't looked like Chris helped much with the moving .

Wonderful Chris, I must admit I do prefer the uncropped version but can see where it is maybe not the sort of portrait that you would have on the fireplace.

Thanks chaps!

Clearly I would have taken more photos if I wasn't carrying heavy boxes all day long...

I prefer the 16:9 version #1 as well - just wanted to provide a closer crop, so folks to gauge how the X100 image quality stood up to closer inspection (which it definitely does)

I have been supremely impressed with the exposure accuracy on the Fuji to date - even in tricky situations, such as #1, which was taken inside the UHAUL truck. Son #1 is well lit from the open door, and his father-in-law still came out nicely in the shadow area towards the back of the truck. I love the reflection off of his glasses!

The UHAUL sign was just me testing the camera at higher ISO - and I'm impressed with how noise free and clean the images are.
