I spent a bit of time over the Easter long weekend going through some of the my end of 2019, early 2020 photos of my cafe and restaurant adventures. For some reason I enjoy taking these food and drink snaps but seldom find a reason to share them. I thought why not put together a series of food and drink images into a blog post. These are all local joints in Perth. Hopefully when we are all released from our social isolation, we can all head out and support some of our local businesses, especially if they’re closed at this time.
[Read more…]My experience using the Fujifilm X100F for life and travel
The Fujifilm X100F was release back in 2017 and the X100V replacement was announced earlier this year. As I mentioned in my previous blog post on my initial impressions of the X100F, I was curious to try out the X100F to see what the fuss was all about (spoiler alert, it’s a fantastic little camera and I loved using the little thing). The X100 series is Fujifilm’s first foray into the mirrorless market and is one of it’s most iconic cameras. This blog post wraps up my experience of using the X100F for a month. During this time I took it on a trip to Melbourne, photographed Open House Perth 2019, used it as my primary camera on the last Fuji X Aus Perth photowalk for 2019 and shot some behind the scenes candid photos and videos for my brother’s wedding.
[Read more…]Wandrd Duo backpack – Dual purpose bag for travel and client work
The best products are always the ones that try to solve a problem. Wandrd is founded by a band of brothers who couldn’t find the “perfect camera bag” for their travels and decided to make one themselves. Wandrd started with wanting to make the best travel camera bag in the world. Now they have expanded beyond the camera bag into a variety of related products. Their simple and bold mission is to create products that inspire people to get out to explore, create and live in the moment. It’s a mission that I can definitely resonate with and feel that come through in their products.
While I wish there was the “perfect” camera bag that would meet all my needs, I know the reality is you may need more than one camera bag to ensure you have the right bag for the right purpose/job. I have been following Wandrd for the last few of years and always had my eye on their PRVKE bag. I know so many people who rave about the PRVKE and they do seem like fantastic bags. There was just something about it that didn’t fit the bill for me. When Wandrd launched the DUO kickstarter campaign last year, that was the bag that caught my eye. I eagerly waited for the bag to go into production, be shipped and be reviewed.
[Read more…]My initial impressions of the Fujifilm X100F
I’m so used to using interchangeable lens cameras coming from the Canon DSLR system followed by the Fujifilm X series cameras. I like the option of having a variety of high quality lenses to choose from depending on the kind of photography I’m doing. Over the last 4 years, I’ve built up a nice little kit of Fujifilm x mount lenses. However I’ve noticed since I’ve purchased the 23mm f2 lens, it’s been the lens that seldom leaves my XT10 when I’m looking for a general purpose lens.
[Read more…]One Saturday morning in Perth with the 14mm f2.8 lens
On a Saturday a few weeks ago, I head into the city an hour earlier than I needed to explore while most of the city was still asleep. I was keen to use my newly purchased Fujinon 14mm f2.8 lens for some architecture and street shooting. I meandered my way around Westralia Square, Wolf Lane, King Street and Railway Lane. My comfort zone is shooting around the 23mm or 25mm focal lengths (on a crop sensor). Shooting so wide was definitely out of my comfort zone, but such a fun photographic challenge. I absolutely loved the lens. As I mentioned in my previous blog post, the distortion is minimal when I took the time to line things up nicely.
