This month, Take Kayo kicks us off with his latest instalment of Take’s Corner, where he reflects on the announcement of the release of the X-T50 at the X Summit last month, reflecting on how the camera fits into the current X Series line-up and how it stacks up against current offerings.
David Roberts takes us along with him as he experiments with two different camera setups as an everyday carry: the X100V and the X-T5 plus XF16-55mmF2.8. Meanwhile, Miroslav Hlinka brings us this month’s photo essay entitled ‘Moments of Silence: Expedition to the Mystery of Czech Ossuaries’, which gives us a look at a project documenting the intricacies of these sombre tombs. Next up is Bjorn Moerman, who is sharing his thoughts on the newly released GFX 100S II as he photographs the contrast between old and new in Dubai Creek.
As usual, we also have our monthly ‘From the Feed’ feature, where we’re sharing four popular images from #myfujilove on Instagram, posted by Jeremiah Ramey, Miguel Rondilla, Francesco Valentinuzzi and Jocke Lord.
In our FujiLove interview for this month, Chloé Mignard is chatting to Stephanie Baxter about her journey from working in marketing in the hospitality industry to making them jump over to becoming a hotel lifestyle photographer, how she prepares for her shoots for clients and how she came to start using Fujifilm. Concluding his six-part article series, ‘The Growing Pains of Photography’, Ibarionex Perello shares how photography has become a meditative practice for him, which has allowed him to create his best work and gain a greater appreciation for life.
We’re also thrilled to bring you our ‘Gear Talk’ section of FujiLove Magazine, starting with Rico Pfirstinger, who continues his article series all about how to expose correctly. Next up, Piet Van den Eynde gives us his own first impressions of the GFX 100S II, while Bobbi Lane discusses different shutter speed choices to create a certain mood and match the creative concept that you’re going for in an image. Rounding off the issue is Dylan Goldby, who walks us the ins and outs of manual focusing with the X Series.
Happy reading!
