Manfrotto Zaino e Monospalla 3N1 medio (MB PL-3N1-25)

Pros: Build quality, versatility

Cons: There is not enough room for a notebook, but only for a tablet

Opinion: Excellent backpack, perfect for a mirrorless kit with different lenses and accessories but also suitable for reflex (without battery grip..) with some lenses. It is very versatile, you can wear it as a normal or one shoulder backpack or cross the X shoulder straps for safe transport even on challenging paths. It also has a belt with padding to tie it to the waist. Having the lateral openings you can slide it to extract machine and accessories without removing the backpack from the shoulders, certainly a very useful option for those who photograph landscapes and are on challenging routes in the mountains or with wet terrain! The materials seem to be of excellent quality. It has a rain/parasol cover, a removable support for transporting a tripod and a buckle to lock the tripod. Compared to my old Tamrac Expedition 6 I can say that it manages to contain practically the same equipment, provided to find the right position of the internal dividers, with a overall footprint (and a weight) less. It is just taller than the Tamrac and definitely tighter. The only drawback: there is no PC... PS: I forgot to say that the upper part is separated from the lower compartment and can contain various accessories such as filters, flashes, cables, betats and personal effects, but if necessary the two halves can become a single compartment (the internal part is equipped with hinge Lightning and in this way I think it is possible to carry a reflex with a telephoto type 400 mm.

Fujifilm X-T2

Pros: Quality files, ease the manual focus, configurability, bracketing evolved

Cons: Battery life

Opinion: Short (and partial) review of the Fujifilm X-T2 I'm testing by some giorni.rnVengo by a system Canon (5D MK2) so some judgments may be affected by this experience. In the past I have used other digital cameras (Pentax K200, K7, K5) and M mirrorless Canon and M3.rn rnPerchè switch to Fuji? RnQuante times we left home the reflex not to take on too much weight, before returning home repentant for the quality of the photos taken? A quality compact would solve the problem, but I wanted the versatility of a complete system, so the natural choice of a mirrorless. I tried with Canon but I was not happy, then let me borrow an X-T1 .... rnL'ho used for a wedding, taking direct JPG, so I sold all the material Canon.rn rnPrime impressioni.rnBella !! ! It looks like a classy analog SLR, a camera output 80s. When my girlfriend saw it for the first time asked me if there is a roll of film ..... any comment is superfluo.rnSolida. Ghierand controls, flaps and overall quality improved a lot compared to the X-T1. It holds well in hand, do not complain if it is small because it's as big as most of the mechanical reflex we used to decenni.rn rnMirino.rnIl best electronic viewfinder I've ever seen, it is a pleasure to use it and put a hand flare, which was quite frustrating with viewfinders of cameras. We can superimpose the image of the whole, levels, histogram, shooting data, settings. The zoom of the focus area is automatically activated if you work in MF. If you do not want to use the viewfinder display we are adjustable now also verticale.rn rnMessa to fuoco.rnVeloce and exact. The focus area can be adjusted in magnitude until it is reduced to a tiny dot. The point of focus moves instantly from virtually anywhere via a handy joystick, without taking your eye from the viewfinder. The manual focus makes use of various aid systems, I almost always use the focus peaking with the colored line shows the areafocus .... I have almost stopped using the auto focus! rn rnModalità scatto.rnOltre of the normal shooting, there are two burst modes: slow and fast. For both, we can set the maximum number of shots per second, a feature that I think is very useful to use the reasoning machine and not relying on caso.rnHDR. A bomb. Up to 9 programmable shots in 1/3 stop, and if you are still not happy you can make even the white balance bracketing! RnTempi extended up to 15 minutes, the fastest time 1 / 8000.rn rnQualità.rnI files excellent, JPG are awesome, I've never seen this level of JPG directly in the car. The zoom display does not allow full appreciate the sharpness but as soon as you open the PC remains open mouth. Although the sensor is an APS-C RAW files retain good workability and noise content. I used RAW up to 3200 ISO, noise is of course but compared to my old reflex is of different types and find it more workable. Maybe on dina rangemica at low ISO MK2 still maintains a small advantage, but impressions and now I can not do a comparative test seria.rn rnEffetti speciali.rnC'è the ability to simulate some films, for younger names like Sensia Velvia or not they say much, but for me it was a blast from the past can trigger a JPG image with the saturation of the old and unmatched Velvia slide. Of course it is a bit 'strange an effect of this type with a nominal sensitivity of ISO 200, but you can also use the ISO 100 setting the LOW extension. The ISO 50 MK2 remain a mirage ..... RNE 'also present ACROS mode complete with filters to get the optimal black and white qualità.rnOvviamente all this is applicable retrospectively if we take in RAW. I had no problems to open RAW Fuji with the latest version of Camera Raw.rn rnConfigurazione.rnPulsanti and shooting modes, functions as an ISO car or extent of the compensation, configuration gammDynamic, response to high or low lights, preview of real time effects, overlapping the collected GPS data on the fly from your phone ..... when I have explored all the customization options you'll probably already old. Simply outstanding, although I can not call them intuitive menu! Rn rnFlash.rnNon there. It comes standard flash a small sled that is fed from the camera, so do not forget to secure the batteries! Good choice. I used the Canon flash 580EX2 directly on the flash shoe without problems, of course, manually !! rn rnDifetti? RnCertamente I will and I'll find out. By the time the first thing that comes to mind is autonomy, than a good SLR is utterly ludicrous. With a fully charged battery, I made an average of 250 shots, a few. E 'need to stock up on batteries and I think for a type wedding service purchasing the grip is to be taken seriously considerazione.rnE' you can increase the autonomy USEDando only the viewfinder, taking off the display, and turning off the pre-focus function which in practice focuses continuously even if you do not press the shutter button, which is useful not to lose the moment .... rnHo also noticed a some inconsistency working with the white balance automatically but I have not done extensive testing because practically never use automatic balancing, were the first shots and I had not yet selected daylight mode that I use ALWAYS in any lighting situation when working in RAW rn rnVarie.rnAl moment I have not got to try other exciting features, such as continuous autofocus configurable to our needs. I also have not yet carried out the calibration of the color response with the creation of its profiles, so I can not say how much it deviates from the "real" calibration of Fuji, to the eye seems very well tarata.rnPosso say I'm convinced I made the right thing for me, for my way of taking pictures, going to Fuji.rnI test system I made them using two focal length lensesfixing 23 and 50 mm, both f / 2. I'm trying also a Samyang 12 f / 2 which really very promising. The profiles of the Fujinon lenses are always applied automatically, so the file is opened in PC is correct, distortion and vignetting with virtually absent .... and I like it, I've never been a fan of the vignetting.
