It all started in grade six on a school trip where I snapped portraits of my classmates and the sights we saw. Armed with a Kodak Instamatic I knew I was onto something. My equipment has changed significantly since then but one thing remains the same: my passion for capturing moments in time. I reside in Vernon, BC and specialize in Corporate, Real Estate, Wedding, Portrait, Sports and Music/Theatre photography.

Volleyball 2.0 X-Pro1

Published September 18th, 2012

Fujifilm upped the ante today with a firmware upgrade for the X-Pro1. AF and general operation speed of the camera has been improved. I took the camera to a volleyball game tonight and was actually surprised to feel the difference. AF seems snappier although I didn't venture into continued tracking. Write times to the SD card has been improved and you feel it right away. Scrolling through your images is a breeze. The first three frames below were shot in single shot AF. The remaining shots were shot at 6 fps. bursts. For some shots I used manual focus. I would use the AE-L button to lock focus and then fire away. I also wanted to check the auto white balance and ISO performance. I have always found it challenging to shoot these games in poorly lit gyms with my SLR. I think the X-Pro1 did a decent job. Mind you I only had one lens, the XF 35 1.4.
