    Digital RF?

    That’s different to say Fuji’s X100 series RF’s?

    ^ deffo going to to see if I can get the ‘silver’ on my B&W’s

    Example – something like this I would like to be able to get deeper contrast, more ‘silver’

    Presently downloading Lightroom (like dial-up days)

    So am going to give that a try

    What’s slightly frustrating is so many B&W editor’s are ‘plug-ins’ so you need PS to start with

    Great, thanks. Plenty to look into there then

    Any GIMP users/fans?

    So, all the options here fairly pricy for a hobbyist, and I don’t like the idea of having to ‘subscribe’ paying monthly

    Anything purchasable or even free (quality compromise expected, but acceptable – I use Picasa at the mo)?

    Thanks for all the great replies – much apreciated

    I shoot a fair bit of B&W, would this alter the options at all?

    Just looking at the Fuji X-T2.

    Pricey, but nice. IQ seems a lot better than the 100T and it doesn’t look too much bigger size wise

    bonesetter

    Good comparison tool, thanks.

    Your MX-1 is known for it’s IQ though, especially JPEG. I think we tend to get a little over anxious about sensor size. Nice camera

    Is there another option I should look at, for maybe a little better image quality?

    Or is the 100T’s fine?

    Was thinking of a bars bag (Jones Loop bars), but thought that’s just too much knocking about esp with a rigid fork

    The Dashpoint 10 is favourite so far

    Yeah, was thinking of a mobile phone bag on the backpack strap

    Lowe Dashpoint 20 looks good

    Thanks, but that looks too big for what I’m after

    It’s a small Fuji I have

    That’s an unusual bit of kit, but I was thinking of a bag which gives protection

    ^ Important question

    Although I suspect the answer to be ‘the same’

    bonesetter

    Great, thanks

    Have you tried JPEG – Fuji’s jpeg colour processing is something they’re famous for

    OMG! 1977!

    Ti is £2K
    Steel ~£900

    The driving was very relaxed, and didn’t hear a single horn

    Food was absolutely brilliant and was the stoundout. Reasonably priced as was the wine – and decent house stuff

    Locals very friendly. Stayed in Chefalu which was more ‘local’ and less touristy. Well recommended

    Good feedback gil, thanks

    *puts wallet back in pocket*

    ‘course, the truss is meant to be stiff fore/aft, but not vertically

    ^ having owned both myself, gil’s nailed it.

    The ‘take-away for me is the truss fork – makes a huge difference

    I’m feeling the Zen too Ton :)

    What doesn’t bear thinking about is how many thousands it’s taken to get to this point :)
