I got a good deal on a brand new XE-1. A really great camera and a perfect addition to my NEX 5n.
After playing around with it I can`t believe that this cam isn`t that common in this community.

Here a a few samples from today, all captured with XE-1 and the good old summicron, which really shines on this amazing camera.
Most of them are jpg ooc, only resized and sharpened a little bit. The last one was shot at ISO 3200!

Timo,
You're right, a perfect combo - Summicron + XE-1. Congrats for the top model also, she poses very relaxed, like a pro - beautiful baby


Very Happy

Cheers,

Renato

Should I assume that you mean the 50mm R?

Sorry! Yes you are right, it is the Summicron-R 50.

Congrats on the addition to your (camera) family! It truly is a great camera, and also very cheap now that the X-E2 and X-T1 are out there. For MF lenses, the X-E2 and X-T1 offers little advantage over the X-E1 (since Fuji are so kind and keep updating the firmware for the X-E1), and they basically share the same sensor. The only thing I would like from the X-E2 and X-T1 is the refresh rate on the LCD/EVF, which is a bit low on the X-E1.

And by the way, lovely images of your baby.

The Fujis are amazing. And in combination with Leica lenses ... Wow!

Very nice baby pictures!

This morning it was time to try the Summicron-R 90. Even this heavy lens handles very well on the XE-1.
