Footnote: Just as I was publishing this the Metabones adaptor was delivered. If the packaging is anything to go by, this is going to be a very good investment. Thats how I finished off The Long Problem: Part 1. I have now had this adaptor for just over a month and have used it on a … Continue reading The Long Problem: Part 2

I am a Sussex based photographer providing imagery for the entertainment industry.
My working time is split fairly evenly between London and Sussex although I have worked all around the world; from Europe covering the BAFTA's, Glastonbury, Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals, to the USA covering The Oscars.
Passing knowledge & experience on is very important to me and so I am proud to say I have served on the Board of the British Press Photographers Association, helping to improve the image and practices of working press photographers. I educate by writing a widely read “technical” blog detailing my use of Fuji cameras and other equipment as well as giving talks about Press (and other aspects of) Photography to camera clubs and groups.

The Long Problem: Part 1
My theory was, like the iPad post and the Focus post, this post would be a single post with maybe updates in the future. However it is not, it's just the start. At the moment the longest Fuji lens is 300mm equivlent (the 55-200) which is fine but not long enough for some of the … Continue reading The Long Problem: Part 1
Power to the Camera
One of the problems with the Fuji's is that for a full day you need quite a few batteries. At least the X-T1 and X-1Pro take the same one.. I have 11 of them... And I have the 3 chargers that shipped with the cameras plus a new dual charger. This was supposed to be … Continue reading Power to the Camera
