Fujifilm equipment and articles
This guide follows my minimalist Fuji philosophy — instead of chasing every lens, build a simple 1, 2 or 3 lens kit that actually gets used. Last Updated May 2026: Of all the articles that I have written, this one remains one of my favourites as it is still highly relevant and its intent is … Read more
Last updated January 2026: Another year has nearly passed and yet I still find myself using my X-T5 as much as ever. In all honesty, I’ve been considering adding the Fuji 150-600mm and 500mm f/5.6 and using it for wildlife photography in Scotland and I have now added the Fuji 16-55mm f/2.8 II lens to … Read more
It’s a fair question. The internet has been flooded with praise for Fuji’s little retro-looking camera, and at times the hype has felt louder than the shutter itself. But here’s the thing: I’ve lived with it for over a year. I’ve owned the X100T, the X100V, and I still use other cameras from Nikon, OM … Read more
I own both of Fuji’s “normal” primes — the compact XF 35mm f/2 and the newer XF 33mm f/1.4 WR — and on paper, they look very similar.

Updated April 2026: This review has been refreshed to reflect current pricing, performance, and continued real-world use of the XF 35mm f/2 on the latest Fujifilm bodies. It remains one of the best-value standard primes in the Fuji lineup — compact, reliable, and still the smart choice for most shooters. Is the Fuji 35mm f2 … Read more
Last Updated February 2026: Despite using a lot of cameras while writing articles for my website, the X-T5 remains the camera that I reach for when I’m with my family on personal trips and, the one I enjoy using the most, well, alongside my X100VI too. What I’ve found since moving to Scotland a couple … Read more
Updated April 2026 — This review covers the newer XF 23mm f/1.4 R LM WR version released in 2022, not the older non-WR model. After using it extensively alongside Fuji’s 18mm and 33mm WR lenses, here’s how it holds up today. Introduction The original Fujifilm XF 23mm f/1.4 was one of the lenses I owned … Read more
Updated March 2026 — After using the XF 33mm f/1.4 WR for over a year alongside Fuji’s other premium primes, here’s how it holds up and whether it still feels like the right choice amongst the growing X-mount lineup. Is this a worthy successor to Fuji’s legendary 35mm f/1.4? I’ve loved the 50mm equivalent focal … Read more
The Best Cameras You Can Buy in 2026 Last updated March 2026: I regularly update this guide as new cameras are released and as I spend more time using the models listed below. If you’re trying to figure out which camera is actually worth buying in 2026, this guide will help. I’ve owned or used … Read more
Last Updated May 2026 — After using the X100VI quite a bit since moving to Scotland at the beginning of 2026, and as stock availability of the X100VI has improved significantly, the odds have tilted further in the X100VI’s favour in my opinion — unless you can find a great deal on a used X100V. … Read more
