RE: DEK Photography: Top of the Monastery
I hope so too! I've actually considered Fuji before investing in Nikon, but was short on cash then and decided to get what I can and start shooting. I'm quite impressed by their sensor technology, but mostly their excellent lenses. And I'm sure I'll hate the battery life. I can snap a thousand photos with my Nikon body and the X-T2 and X-T20 can't go pass 300 photos on a single battery charge.
I've always liked the way Canon renders colors, but Nikon's lens selection is huge. They were making lenses way before Canon!
Haha - you might struggle a little with the batter life but the camera will serve you well!!
I can't remember off the top of my head, but does the XT-2 have a leaf shutter? I soooooo want a leaf shutter - amazing what you can do with off camera flash in direct sunlight!!!
Not certain - it does have a standard and an electronic shutter, I believe. I've not played much with flashes. I didn't know the leaf shutter creates interesting effects with sunlight, interesting!
It certainly does!! You can normally no set your shutter speed higher than say 200 or 250 with flash and a regular flash.
With a leaf shutter you can set it to say 1000!! This allows you to block out the sun a lot more!!!
Just doing a quick search online brought this up - gives some examples...

Great, thanks for the link! :)
I prefer natural light but just love what you can do with off camera flash 👍🏻😁
