Michael recently returned from a fabulous trip to Australia, with (literally) a boat load of medium format photographers with equipment to play with. But all of the posted photos are from his Fuji X-Pro 1. What gives?

Sheesh, who cares?

That medium format is dead? ;D

Medium format is alive and well, thank you.
I brought my Alpa and IQ180 back on this trip. I also had access to a Phase camera and every lens that they make. It just happens that of the 3500 frames shot the ones that I've published so far are done with the X-Pro 1.
That camera leant itself to helicopter shooting better than the Alpa, and also to confined spaces such as when shooting rock art.

Hi,
I guess that means that the X-Pro 1 is good enough.
Best regards

How do you find time to work through 3500 frames :-)
Do you already have a fairly fixed idea of which sequences you want to work, or do you expect to stumble across images that have something unexpected to them?
-
Since I'm not on an editorial deadline, and it is simply for my own pleasure (and maybe a future book or exhibit), I just take my time.
Many shots are part of sequences (maybe a third of the total), so it's often just a matter of finding the shot with the best expression, exposure, sharpness etc, out of a series. Other than that I sit back with a coffee or glass of wine and work though them, organizing labeling, and ranking and when something jumps off the screen, working on it and making a print.
This is as much fun as the shooting sometimes.

I understand :-)
But Slobodan didn't. ;) ;D

You know, Stamper, I was actually quite shocked!
Shocked that Isaac finally understood something without further questioning! ;D

Plenty time for more questions.....now that you have riled him? ;)
