    The 40mm of the x and 28mm of the regular one are my favorite focal lengths! So versatile and great for documentary photography. And I agree about the highlight metering. It’s the only thing I miss about my a6400

    Highlight metering is the best, when I found out my Nikon Z5 has it (when I got it) I was hyped because I use it on the GR III regularly. The only thing I missed with my XPro-2. Hopefully Fuji will offer it in the future. When an X-Pro 4 gets released I would like to switch back to an X-Pro XF27mm WR setup. I loved that lens.

    Yay! Insane shots of Istambul. You are such a good photographer. You pointed out my exact feeling about the 3X and it's that it does not catches the eye and people don't give importance to it. I'm glad you are confirming this about it. I will prob soon get one along with the old Gr v1.

      @bnwstreetfr1275 Pƙed 2 lety +1

      They dont have a specific setup for this but on any camera you can use exposure compensation minus 2 stops would do the trick on most situation for fast shooting if you have time to set your shot just use spot metering on the highlighted part of your scene and it’s done , it’s nice that it’s automatic on the gr but if you know how to work around your exposure it’s only a gimmick

    4:43 gave me so much anxiety! This week I dropped my favorite aviator sunglasses into a koi pond while leaning over to take a picture. When I heard the splash, I first thought I dropped my 35mmf2 lens. Gave myself the pat-down and only later realized it was my shades. Didn't even get a good koi shot.

    I really wanted to love the GRIIIx for the portability, but I ended up selling it after a pretty short time because I found the screen almost impossible to use in bright light. There were times when I just couldn’t see anything on it and totally missed photos as a result. For now I’m sticking with a viewfinder, accepting the extra size and hoping some genius figures out how to put one in a pocketable body some time soon.

      @bnwstreetfr1275 Pƙed 2 lety

      It mean that when calculating the exposure for you the camera is protecting the highlight so they don’t get overexposed, it helps at the same time getting great deep shadow 
 if your camera doesn’t have it you can simply use your dial compensation wheel on minis 2 and in most cases it will do the exact same thing
