Couple of shots from my quick venture out tonight, standard shot I take near where I stay to test out new kit!

Had a quick wander with the camera tonight, trying to get a feel for it and the 35mm before I decide whether to buy the 18mm or 60mm to accompany it.
First was really just a test of f1.4 on the lens and the depth of field but I prefer it in B&W, converted in Silver Efex Pro 2

The second I really liked the clouds in the sky and again preferred the conversion into B&W

Chris- I have not heard good things about the 60mm Macro so I went with the 18mm f2 and have to say that I use it more than the 35mm now. I also got a Kipon M adapter and I used my Leica fit lenses with it too. I have not tried the 60mm macro to be fair but I know someone who 'HAD' it and was so disappointed by focus speed, accuracy, and overall image quality, he said it missed focus many times, maybe he got a bad copy?... I would say, if you are not going to use it AS a macro then opt for a Voigtlander 50mm and an adapter, similar price, better performance.

Thanks mate, I've heard mixed reports about the 60mm, mainly saying that the IQ is outstanding but focusing is a bit mince.

I've got a Canon FD 50 lens which I've had on a m4/3 body so will pickup an adaptor for that and give it a go, I don't use longer lengths a lot anyway but I like to have the option!

Loving the 35mm and will be ordering the 18mm tonight from Amazon, at least if I don't like it for any reason I can return to Amazon,

Is that a Toyocaflex sitting on your shelf?

I just picked one up in perfect working condition, with leather case for 7 dollars! Found it in the "junk" bin at my local camera store...

I'm thrilled and have been having fun putting film thru it.

Just for fun I tried some handheld motorsport shots with a Nikon 180mm f/2.8 Ai-s. It was a little hard to focus with the zoomed image in the EVF bouncing around, but some shots turned out.

I got the camera yesterday. So far, i'm very happy with it. My Canonet is heavier than the xPro-1 with a lens mounted.

Here are two snapshots, one in Velvia mode, the other in Monochrome mode.


The original version is here : http://nouvelle-france.net/tumblr/500px/DSCF0186.JPG

Beautiful! Is this straight out of the camera JPEG, or is it RAW with adjustments?
