X-T1

- Start date
good hint with the long exposure.
May I ask if you have used a ND Filter ? As I have seen quite a few examples with x-e2s and x-pro1s long exposure shots w/o those dots but they all used ND filters.
e.g. http://simonpeckham.wordpress.com/2013/05/06/some-fuji-x-e1-flow-long-exposure/
http://markhilliardatelier.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/a-detailed-look-at-x-pro-1-long-exposures/
well I'm waiting the first proper reviews for the x-t1, it's still a very tempting camera, though the release cycle makes someone think may be the pro 2 iwll be announced end of year and wait and wait and then you notice you forgot to shot photos while waiting :bsmilie:

yea I do, anything below 2.5 mins there abouts i dun get the white dots only those with longer timings.
from your 2nd link the exposures are about 90 secs.. so should be fine.
can't see the settings on the first link.

you can post to B&W, then it'll just look like grain. under way is to limit to 2 mins exposure. so far seems to have worked for me.
I realized I get that white "fairy dust" when I don't get the exposure time of the long exposure right (ie. over/under-exposed). It gets worse if you try to push the exposure during post processing.
I saw TK foto post something on their page, here on this website.
Actually Exposure pointed out a good point, and that is exactly the reason why I'm a fan of Oly and Fuji. Their products feels designed by people who are users too. No company wans to make losses , but when the company prizes profits more than making a good camera , it's always kinda sad.
it is to customers' advantage when they don't need that 'extra time or effort' to edit photos. Very good for wedding and event photographers, who are now able to deliver "goods" on the spot. Asking customers to wait 1 or 2 weeks for photos delivery is now OUTDATED, the "in-thing" now is shoot now and upload now !
I pretty much have decided to get the x-t1 and trying to make my mind up whether to go with primes only or the zooms (Rico posted already some shots with 10-24mm on FLickr and they look promising).
I know my following questions is dealt with on the internet quite a lot but still I struggle and appreciate your view as the SG conditions with a lot of sun may speak a different language.
I'm unsure about the 23mm lens or to go with x100/s. If it would be the x100/s it also would be probably the one I would carry whole day with me, the x-t1 with 23mm is not really convenient to just throw in your office bag.
Anyone had same decision or using 2 cams ? , btw had no fuji so far so it's a system switch

Those going for preview, please help check the EVF in dim lights
and see if you can make out things like you would with an optical viewfinder.
Would be helpful if you bring along your regular DSLR for comparision.
Thanks

Should not be a problem if you enable the "Exposure Simulation", I already can do that with X-Pro1 EVF with the firmware upgrade.

it is normal for people to own a mirrorless system and at the same time having a high performance compact camera as 2nd camera.I pretty much have decided to get the x-t1 and trying to make my mind up whether to go with primes only or the zooms (Rico posted already some shots with 10-24mm on FLickr and they look promising).

at the end of the day, the compact will be your everyday camera, while the mirrorless system will be the work horse when you need to expand more creativity options of different focal length and depth of field. i'm XE2 user now, considering X100S but no budget... T.T
short and sweet thx
thx for your view, since you say the XT1 will be the work horse and is "much more advanced " you guys think x100 would be ok rather than x100s ?
