Just because I am primarily a Fujifilm shooter doesn’t mean that I don’t love to experiment with other products. GoPro for example has consistently been offering cameras that have been interesting to me. They serve a niche, but within that spectrum they clearly seem to excel. Given that I love (and shoot) action sports, their products have been on my radar for years. I just needed an opportunity to branch out into the GoPro world. This Christmas, Christy gave me that opportunity by gifting me a GoPro Hero 4 Black.

I have been using this Fuji X-T1 exclusively for the past few weeks and have been experimenting with a few different lenses (35mm f/2 is really awesome!), film presets (Classic Chrome is amazing!), etc. to get a feel for the camera's limitations and sweet spots. So far, I have found very little to not love.

It has been a few years since I started playing around with Fuji X-Trans cameras. Up until I bought my X100s, I was a pretty solid "Canon Guy", but after seeing some of the images being shot with the - then new - X-Trans cameras, I had to see what all of the hype was about.

Over the years I have tried all kinds of camera gear. My office is filled with bags, straps, filters, cases, lenses, etc. As with any passion I not only enjoy the primary aspect, shooting photos, but also the ancillary benefits such as playing around with new gear...
