Review | The Fujifilm XT-1 PART II | Leigh Miller

I get a lot of hate mail. Ok hate is a bit strong but let’s just say quite a few people have taken issue with my many declarations that the DSLR as we know it is the past. Medium format too for that matter. For the most part I ignore the rude ones and give the more reasonable of the writers a quick reply which goes something like this: GAS: Short for „Gear Acquisition Syndrome“. I used to suffer from it big time and collected more camera and lighting gear than any photographer in my position needs to have. It’s like a condom I thought…better to have one and not need it, than need it and not have one. Camera companies (mainly DSLR and Medium Format) fuel that with the old megapixel race, more and more frames per second, mega-high ISO etc. They convinced me that I needed all that stuff to be successful, or at the very least to be taken seriously as a professional photographer. Well I found out that was mostly BS…..
