Nikon D800 and my Fuji X-T1 | Jorge Moro

Last Friday I decided to go out shooting.  The night before I selected which  cameras I was taking with me:  The Niikon D800 with the 50 and the 18-35 wide angle and the Fuji X-T1 with the Zeiss 12mm, the Fuji 35mm and the 18-55 lens. On the morning I was headed out, I changed my mind and left the D800 sitting right where you see it in the image below.  I left the house just with the Fuji gear.  That was a first.  What I found truly enjoyable was actually walking around with the lightweight kit!  No dSLR, no long lenses.  Just me, the Fuji camera, lenses and the tripod!  It was a fantastic, fun, and productive outing generating many stock images, as well as photography just for some fun. After returning from my short but very productive trip, and seeing the images open in Lightroom I knew I had made the correct decision leaving the D800 behind.  The X images were phenomenal;  clear, sharp, and well composed as I had the freedom to move around without being encumbered by heavy gear. The rear tilting LCD  came in very handy when shooting very low to the ground.  I purposely found some compositions that worked down low, these were compositions I may not have attempted with the Nikon gear……..
