A couple of weeks ago I was fortunate enough to receive a loan copy of the brand new Fujifilm XF16mmF2.8 lens from Fujifilm Australia. You may already be aware of this as at the time I published a little preview blog about my first impressions of the product itself. In short, I highlighted that it…

Tokyo 2019 – How I plan my travels…life?

Welcome to what will be, without doubt, or assurance, my last blog about my upcoming trip to Tokyo. That sentence feels a bit final. But for those that have not been following me on my past journeys, I have only just begun. In this series of blogs, I have talked about every detail of my…

Fujifilm XF16mmF2.8 – Preview

I love it when the right kind of mail arrives at my doorstep. Not the usual sort from the water company, phone company or the parole board…But the kind that a man in a hi-vis vest delivers. With a smile and a tip of his hi-vis cap, he delivers the good stuff. And, added to…

Globe Snake Sessions! – With the ORP and the Fujifilm X Series.

It has been far too long since I have caught up with the ORP (Overrated Photographer) for a photo shoot. We have caught up plenty of times but just not to take photos. Our kids hang out and get on well which is really lovely, and that means that we can leave them to play…

Tokyo 2019! – How I Plan My Travels – Eating!

A traveller in Japan, or even a Japanese local, is spoiled for choice when it comes to excellent quality food at great value. I have documented some of my food experiences in Japan in my past travel blogs. I have never had a bad meal in Japan. Never felt ‘ripped-off’. I have only ever been…

Melbourne Street Walk with the crew from Fuji X Aus

As many regular readers will know, I love my home city of Melbourne. I promote it’s greatness as often as I can on Facebook and of course here with you. I don’t get into the city itself as much as I once used to. But when I do go into town, it is usually to…

Playing with the Laowa 9mm and the Fujifilm X-T3

I was fortunate enough to come across a loan copy of the Laowa 9mm F2.8 ZERO-D lens with the Fujifilm X mount. Laowa also make this available for other camera mounts. It is a crazy wide angle lense with 113 degree field of view. If you are not careful you will include your feet in…
