My x10 and I decided to go for a walk down the beach this morning so I could get to know her better. (How weird is it that I have somehow established that the gender of my x10 is a female and the x100 is male?) I realized the the x10 handles like an extremely ergonomic point and shoot. I wish that the view finder was electronic as well as optical, like that of the x100. The viewfinder on the x10 is pretty useless to me since the framing is off and there’s no information in it. There are a lot of things I like and dislike about the x10. I really like it for wider landscape photographs. If you want a shallow depth of field, forgettaboutit, you can’t get it unless you zoom in and shoot in macro mode. Oddly enough, I like the weird camera special presets. (This is weird because I rarely, if ever like camera presets.) The 360 Panorama is pretty fun. Also, I had some fun shooting some low-res high speed video. It can shoot 70fps (640x480), 120fps (320x240), and 200fps (320x112). As far as the quality of the photographs, you can see them here for yourself. They are pretty standard, if not, slightly better than that of point and shoots that I’ve used before. I think this camera is fun to just carry around and use in low-key hang out sessions because of its small profile; but I think if I want to stick with the SLR quality in a compact camera, I’ll use my x100. That larger sensor gives enough of a kick for a shallow depth of field. 

I still need to use the x10 more to get more familiar with it and learn to use it better, so stay tuned for more updated reviews. 

I can only justify buying/keeping this camera because I got it for over $100 lower than the MSRP, on Ebay, pretty much brand new. I don’t think I would’ve shelled out for it at normal price.

Also remember that a photograph is only as good as the person taking the photo itself. I can take an alright photograph with pretty much any shit camera. And at the same time, a better camera isn’t going to make me a better photographer, I just want different cameras for different things.

CHICA-GOGO! [via fishel]

You can see my lack of dance moves in the background somewhere there.

Last Saturday my friend Dave was in town and did one of his dance blogs (http://daveydanceblog.com/). Dave is really awesome and I hope he comes back to Chicago so we can actually catch up and hang out. Austin and I participated and Preston and Joel shot some footage for fun on the Epic and Scarlet. Davey’s dance blog from Chicago should be out sometime this week. I don’t know what Preston plans on doing with that Epic footage, but let me tell you right now that Dave dancing overcranked (96fps) on the Epic looks fucking fantastic.

Here are some more photographs taken with my new x10. On the very last robot picture, the lens was a centimeter away from the actual robot. A centimeter!!!!
