Fujifilm X-E1 and the XF 18-55 f/2.8-4.0 Kit Lens

Fujifilm X-E1 and the XF 18-55 f/2.8-4.0 Kit Lens

I thought some of these images would look good in B&W so I set at it with my favourite converter, namely Nik SFX II which is just about the best converter on the market right now. Firstly I'll show the image in colour and then as a finished monochrome image.
I'll let you decide if it was worth it or not. So here goes with the first image and the reason I thought it would convert well was brcause of the contrast between the sky and the row of houses down the bottom. I like this image in colour too.

I find this a pleasing image to look at, not because it's a photographic masterpiece, but because of the lovely green and blue colours. I find it amazing that the sensor managed to get this correctly.
The X-E1 is fast becoming my favourite camera to date, even pushing out the Olympus OM-D, and that is saying something.
I like the Olympus colours a lot, but I think the X-E1 trumps it in every way.

Fujifilm X-E1 and the XF 18-55 f/2.8-4.0 Kit Lens

What impresses me about this image is the colour transition and there are no burnt out highlights. The blacks under the bridge are blocked but only because it was like that in real life. The colours are spot on again and there was no colour work done in either Lightroom or Photoshop.
The taste for the other XF lenses is growing on me daily. I have to hold off though because I will definately get the X100S next. What stopped me getting the X100 was the quirckiness of using it, especially the OVF/EVF and the slow AF. I'm glad I held off on that purchase because the X100S AF is supposedly a lot faster. If it's as fast as the X-E1 I can live with it.
Fujifilm have managed to put PDAF on the sensor this time so things should have speeded up nicely.

At least this is something different. Taken on the bank of the river Main in Frankfurt. To be fair I had to enhance the colours a little but not too much.

Again an image that impressed me with the colour accuracy. The blue, green and the gray of the building in the foreground is very accurate indeed. Sharpness is fine too I think.

There is one drawback to this lens that bothers me a bit and that is the distortion at the short end. It is there and it is rather noticeable. This is one image that had to be corrected and a little bit of the image gets cropped. Just a reminder for the future if you're going to be using this lens a lot. Perhaps I should be looking at the Fuji XF primes.

I was rather surprised by the way the X-E1 handled this image. With the large area of dark water I expected the seagulls to simply blow out. Not a chance, the camera exposed this correctly too. Just to be on the safe side, I did bracket this photograph to see what the correct exposure should be. This image is the one that the camera seleted as a correct exposure.

Again I'm impressed by the colour of the building and the little boat in the jarbour just to the lower left of the building itself. It's great to see that some cameras do get everything right and they can distinguish between different hues of red. I also notice that the sky has retained some blue because it was rather bright at this point.

I really like the way this sensor catches the reds in these images. I've had a few cameras that always clipped the reds no matter what I tried. These red posts in the above image have been captured the way they really are.

I know for a certain that the posts for the next 3 weeks at least are going to be about the X-E1 and the kit lens. I will try and put up different types of images but that is going to be hard going at present. This was my one and only outing with this camera up to this post, but I'm sure I'll get out and about a little more if and when time permits, allowing me to capture all sorts of images.
