Jerusalem, Israel – August 16, 2017 – Picktorial Innovations, Ltd. is excited to announce its latest offering to the Fuji community with X-Pack, a package of pitch-perfect film simulation color profiles for Fujifilm RAF files. With this unique add-on to Picktorial 3, the simple yet powerful non- destructive RAW photo editing platform for Mac, Fuji photographers can enjoy the renowned look of the Fujifilm Film-Simulation yet retain the capability and latitude of the X-Trans sensor output.

Already a favorite within the Fuji community due to its superior X-Trans RAW support, Picktorial has added the X-Pack with 14 color profiles reproducing the Fuji Film-Simulation modes found in- camera when shooting in JPEG format. These profiles, based on the original films, are considered one of the most beloved features in the Fuji X-series digital cameras. Read More »

Custom Gariz Fujifilm X100F Case

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 16, 2017


Translated:
Introducing the Fuji 100F cover. It was created again at the buyer’s request. The descendants of the Fuji X100 seem to be a constantly loved model. I have already been transformed in a little bit for 7 years. In the process, Only cover is resurrected in six years. As I have often said, Cover is not a profitable model. So, it will be the only product in the world again this time. In addition, we have to configure with a quick case and set … We can not help but feel the burden on customers. Really, I have prepared for very few.

Fujifilm GFX 50S: Roundup

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 15, 2017

It has been a while since Lewis Von John’s last video and he is once again praising light meters. I really enjoyed the Sekonic L-858D-U which I reviewed a few months ago. Incorporating a light meter into your work flow certainly, reduces the amount of time that you have to spend editing later. The GFX is an incredibly flexible camera and it’s a joy to shoot, which is why I would rather be out using it than editing its rather large files. Reviews seem to feel the same as they continue to heap praise at the GFX while photographers continue to demonstrate why you might want one. Fujifilm continues to do a great job this year with lens releases and firmware updates.

Markus & Koala GFX Stories

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 15, 2017

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Icewp5TvNgI

Markus Klinko’s David Bowie gallery opening was one of the first site related events I attended, which I covered. I enjoyed the unique photos of Bowie that Markus created with his Hasselblad. Since then Markus has kept in touch and formed a partnership with Koala to go on and produce work like their Private Viewing, which he shot with the Fujifilm GFX 50S. Their collaboration has been a very productive one as you can see from their new work page and I can’t wait for their next big gallery tour.

FujiAddict is a very diverse community, and we like to see our readers and the people that we meet in life succeed. This is why we opened the camera groups, so like minded photographers can collaborate and share their successes and knowledge. So please think about joining one that applies to you or that you would like to become a part of at a later date.

Fujifilm X-T20 and Instax SQ10 Received EISA Awards

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 15, 2017


EISA CONSUMER COMPACT SYSTEM CAMERA 2017-2018 FUJIFILM X-T20 (HERE)
The Fujifilm X-T20 is a compact, mirrorless consumer camera that produces sharp, clean images and 4K video quality at a competitive price. At the heart of the camera is its 24.3 million pixel X-Trans CMOS III sensor and X-Processor Pro, which are jointly responsible for the extraordinary image quality. Despite its comparatively affordable cost the X-T20 uses the same high quality sensor and processor as the highly regarded X-T2 and X-Pro2. The touchscreen operation and custom AF-C setting are also big pluses. Finally the X-T20’s sharp and highly detailed 4K video recording makes this camera a great all-rounder.

EISA INSTANT CAMERA 2017-2018 FUJIFILM INSTAX SQUARE SQ10 (HERE)
The Instax SQUARE SQ10 is the first hybrid instant camera that lets you take and print square photos (62x62mm). You can brighten, darken or add vignettes to your images or choose from 10 creative filters to apply, before you decide to print them. The bright LCD viewfinder makes it easy to create and edit your pictures, which are recorded in the internal memory or on a microSD card, so you can share them with your friends and family.

LEE Solar Filter Controversy: UPDATED

By Louis Ferreira | Published: August 14, 2017


Earlier today Petapixel published an article about how Amazon is refunding LEE Solar filters because they were unable to ensure that the filter was safe for use, so I reached out to B&H Photo for clarification. While B&H Photo stands by the safety of the filter I continued to push for further clarification about why this might have happened, which led me to a contact at LEE Filters.

It seems Amazons concerns were that DSLR users would use it while looking through the optical view finder and regular viewers would use it instead of proper glasses. So out of unnecessary caution, Amazon is refunding and pushing the cost of the filters on dealers. The dealers will likely file a class action lawsuit against Amazon because there is nothing wrong with the filters if used for their intended purpose.

According to LEE all photographic filters for the Soler Eclipse are designed like theirs and Amazon might end up pulling them all if they realize this is the case. So the lucky people that ordered from Amazon should be perfectly ok using the filter on their mirrorless camera or with live view. Just don’t try to view the eclipse directly through the filter!

Official Statement

Amazon has incorrectly identified our filter as a viewing apparatus. The LEE Filters Solar Eclipse filter is NOT intended for viewing the eclipse but rather to photograph the phases of the eclipse, as clearly stated on our website.
