I have been heading out quite a bit of late shooting, some brilliant light getting around over this side of Australia at the moment. On this morning I took my daughter Lily with me and her bear which basically is attached to her. The top shot is taken on the Fuji GX617 and the bottom one on the Fuji G617. I bought my old Fuji back off the guy I sold it to. Love that camera. As you can see still makes a cracker of a shot.

nice photos, my pick out of the two would be the one shot on the fuji G617,…. did u use any nd grads in this shot?
cheers
Always ND grads.
ok, so when you have half land half sky, like in this shot do you just put the nd grad over the land as well ?
Yep you sure do… no other option. Seams to work that’s why I use the soft grads 99% of the time. If it was a hard grad then it would really stand out.
ah ok thanks…. hmm i still got to get me some of them ND grads
wonderful light in the second image, really like it Matt
Hey Matt
I reckon both pics are winners, the bottom one is the winner in my books. I bet you are you enjoying having the old fuji back!!!
Loving it… hard to get use to the G617 viewfinder when the one on the GX has guidelines and also makes everything look a bit brighter.
You really can’t beat the G617…the lens is SOOO sharp. What a workhorse. Great shots mate
Thanks Dave. After shooting both systems if someone made me choose I would give back the GX617 and keep the G617.
the perspective on the 105mm lens is the best I have used…personal preference though. It’s definitely a camera that you operate on instinct though esp regarding the viewfinder!
Couldn’t agree with you more. Once you get use to the G617 viewfinder and you know what it isn’t showing you, you love it.
Hey Matt,
Just watched your metallic rocks tutorial on Rubbing Pixels. Great little trick!. Applied it to some rocks in the latest post on my blog, made the rocks that were dry look wet and shiney..think i might have over done it though ahah.
Cheers for the tuts!
Yea it is a cool technique hey. Some images can take a lot, some just need a little kick. I checked your your shot and it looked fine to me. Hard to say when you don’t see the original.
Great to see the G getting a run Matt – I also like the bottom image best – nicer light IMO. My G also got a good run last week over the vic west coast. 🙂
Thanks Tony… shooting heaps more film now. Just got $700 worth of Velvia 50 the other day. Love the G
