Jessops is not my favourite shop, but it's the only camera shop we have in Edinburgh, apart from a second-hand shop. The intention was to try out the Fuji 10-24mm f4 wide-angle lens. The shop assistant, a young girl, seemed to be worried I might run off with it, as we stood outside the shop, and it was bitterly cold despite some sunshine, so I only managed four quick shots.
It seems to be a really well-made lens, but we won't be buying before the Christmas sales, just in case. Santa said she'll pay half of it
It turns out to have a spot on it - none of my other lens shots do.
I couldn't see that at the time, or never noticed. Here's a 16x9 crop, with the offending dot removed.
The camera settings were not what I would have chosen if I'd had time to reflect. Still, it does seem an excellent lens.
So, with my other lens on, the Fuji XC 16-50mm, I took the following:
New T K Max store, with in-camera Arcos B&W simulation:
Still getting used to the camera.
