After the infrared test … next comes something more fun (to me) … shooting on the streets with the X-Pro1. I have only the 35mm lens with me and thus it will be a little bit more challenging for me as I usually prefer wide angles for streetshooting.<\/p>\n

I switched the camera to the black & white (with red filter) film simulation mode and took some test shots while we were making a dash to a late lunch. Dialed -1 on the exposure compensation and fired away …<\/p>\n

The very silent shutter makes street shooting pretty easy (and safe!). \ud83d\ude00 These were all shot in f5.6 … if I remember correctly … ISO800. Ran them thru Photoshop to give them more contrast but I’ll try post some original out of camera black & white tomorrow.<\/p>\n

I tend to compare the X-Pro1 with my X-100 … especially for street shooting. Somehow I prefer the lighter and smaller X-100 for such photography. Well … that’s just my opinion.<\/p>\n

Wanting to give the X-Pro1 some test run has caused me to neglect the other 2 cameras I have with me. \ud83d\ude41 One is the K-01 paired with the Lensbaby (I did take some shots with it though) and a Diana F+ which ermm … I think I exposed 5 shots so far.<\/p>\n

Anyway … back to the X-Pro1 … the auto focusing seems pretty good now after the firmware update. All the lens chattering problem is gone and focusing seems smooth enough (for me).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While my LC-A+ gently weeps in my bag … unloaded … I will find some time and mood to burn a couple of rolls on it … maybe tomorrow or the day after. What? Did someone say street photography is best done on film? \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

That’s all for another rush entry. Gotta go get some rest before heading out to stuff my face again.<\/p>\n
