Got the sigma 16-400mm with it. All straight out of camera! Need to try out more recipes. Just set up 2 and kinda went for it. Was zooming wayy too much, but that’s because I’ve never had a super zoom (always use primes) and was having fun with it!
I just bought a Fuji X-E5 and a sigma 16-300mm. I still have time to change/modify the order. I’ve read things about the 16-300 that are making me second guess my decision. Do you guys have lens recommendations with equivalent zoom for around $700? Going to be pairing this with a pancake Fuji 27mm and using it on trips to nationals parks. Miiight dabble in wildlife, but the idea of constantly switching lenses also seems daunting. Just can never quite zoom enough to get the frame I want
Deciding between the XT5 and the XE5
For some background I was a videographer for 10 years. I shot primarily on black magic and edit in resolve. I’m working a full time job for the first time in years and picked up an XM5 last year. I’ve loved it. I wanted a portable travel camera and honestly love the recipes. After color grading for a job for years it’s fun to snap a photo and not have to worry about color grading. I find myself taking photos more than I ever have because I was primarily video. Wanting to use this new camera to travel to national parks and snag photos around the house. Still would like to grab some video while traveling to play with, but if I really need it I still have my black magic. I have ALWAYS wanted to dabble with wildlife photography which I know will make many people say XT5, but I do LOVE how small the XM5 is being able to slip in a pocket with a pancake lens. I didn’t think I would but I do miss the Viewfinder. From people who have used both what do you recommend. Narrowed down to these two but am open to alternatives.
