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.

You can just see the detail in the brick wall at this size looking at this image at 100% is really an eye-opener as to what really is possible today with the new sensors. The detail is amazing. I couldn't see any moire or CA either. As a matter of fact I haven't seen any of these flaws in any of the images I took during this 2 hour walk. I didn't think it was possible.
