Fuji X10

Here's a couple others, all hand-held, even the night shot, which used the EXR pixel-doubling thing:

The flash does slow sync, too:

maggieo, you're making great use of the x10! Inspired, I bought one a couple of days ago, and though still learning the ins and outs, I already see that it has the things I'd hoped for: auto white balance and skin tones that, to my taste, beat my GF1; a bright lens with ideal zoom range; decently fast autofocus, and a very handy size (anything smaller is too small for my mitts). Movie mode is good enough for my purposes.
All in all, it promises to be sufficient in itself much of the time, and when not, a painless-to-carry complement to either my trusty Rolleiflex or a film M.
One thing I haven't mastered thus far is the extreme macro mode. Doesn't want to focus, either AF or manually. Any tips, besides the instructions in the manual that I've read and re-read?

Line up the focus point on a strong vertical line, in AF-S mode, and that will usually resolve into something usable. Oh, and you've got to be really, really close for extreme macro mode.

John, your photos with the X10 were one of the things that got me to get mine!

Maggie, Thanks for the thought on extreme macro. Sounds as if it won't work on just any old subject, but now that I look at your examples in light of the vertical-line advice, I can think of many uses for this technique. Dan

Lovely! Nice shots

I hope I was some help, Dan. The Af can kind of hunt and peck for a while in macro mode, but if you can find a line, it'll usually latch on to it.

Here's another couple of shots:

I really like these Fujifilm colors.


Cottonwood Tree and Pines, January 31, 2012 by Maggie Osterberg, on Flickr

Great lens, too. Nice resolution and micro-contrast for a small-sensor camera, IMO.

Does it have live view where you can see a live histogram?

yes a bit small but it has
