Trying to cultivate a hobby, so I bought a camera...

[dereth]

The Fujifilm X100VI is my first Fuji.

I originally wanted the classic silver rangefinder look, but my wife prefers black. Her words, not mine.

I’m a very casual (meaning auto mode lah!) shooter. In the past, I’ve owned Konica Minolta, Sony, and Olympus cameras. I did consider the Sony RX1R and the Leica Q3, but my wife felt those would be overkill for my very n00b level skills. I have to admit, she’s probably right.

It’s definitely been a learning curve. I’m still trying to get the hang of things, and the Fuji menu system feels completely alien to me right now.

Any tips from Fuji users? Or even better, from fellow X100 owners?

photography is fun but i old man, so i can only carry a camera phone, interchangeable lens camera too heavy for me

This is a fixed lens compact travel cam.

It's a 23mm f/2 lens, which is a 35mm full-frame equivalent.

manual focus, raw, set to F2 aperture priority for shallow of field (soft backgrd, bokeh effect)
F4.0 is the sweet spot for aperture

Rich people hobby

The lens is decent and good for taking pictures in low light.

It's expensive hobby if you go in-depth.

Depending on what type of photography you interested to take.

Congrats. Found it cumbersome to bring around, probably not that passionate as enthusiasts, so fine with x300pro with telephoto now.

I wanted to, and even visited the Leica store at MBS recently... But I'm not talented to rely on manual all the time.
