I purchased two screw in soft shutter release buttons for my Fuji X-T2, in black and red because I couldn't make a choice. I put the black/silver on the X-T2 because it compliments the silver/black camera itself, and I thought that possibly the open hole for an optional screw in shutter release might let dust or lint in. Possibly. It does sit up a bit high, but doesn't seem to be in the way. I also have an Olympus Pen-f, that also has the threaded shutter release button. So far the other soft release button is doing nothing in the drawer, as I believe it would stick up way too much on the diminutive little Pen-f, which was one of the reasons I bought it. I should mention that I have electronic shutter releases for both cameras so it's not important that the hole in the shutter release is blocked.

I have a book titled Mastering Composition. It's written by Richard Garvey-Williams. It has very good explanations of the many samples in the book. I found it to be quite useful.

I have a Nikon d3300 that I use pretty hard. I love it because I no longer have much of a learning curve. However, when I try to shoot photos of nature or animals there is a very annoying and obvious shutter delay. This isn't a constant, but often enough to be annoying. Short of purchasing a new camera body are there any remedies? I use back button focus. I set my iso, not auto. I most often shoot in aperture mode and watch to keep my shutter speed up. Thanks for any advice.
Possibly accidentally set for 2nd curtain flash that fires at end of the exposure??

Thanks for providing that link. Being a fan, I knew about some of the intricacies of the F-1 cars, but now it all comes together. I too was getting pretty tired of Mercedes always winning race after race but this year has some promise for better racing. Red Bull and Ferrari have mounted a charge.

I recently purchased this Pen-F and love it. So many features built into it when you're ready, and auto mode until then. Incredibly small and so light. I have the 14-42mm lens on it, which translates roughly into a field of view of 28-84mm. Not a big range, but so far I love it.

Is that your photo? Nicely done. I'd have gone for the PenF except not water resistant. It is a nice looking piece of kit.
Yes this is my photo. This small camera is loaded, even with some features my Fuji X-T2 doesn't have. I've always been very careful outside with my cameras and probably would just avoid the rain in return for the fun of using this camera.

I think you'll be surprised at the results you will get. I also have one, and I think it's a great camera. Plenty of features, jacket pocketable. Other than the non tilt able screen, it has everything I want in a small camera.

I always thought the PEN-F series - both classic and digital - are attractive, compact designs. Perfect for travel or discreet street photography. They have a niche and are attractive as well. Usually I prefer all black bodies but chrome is good looking as well.
I agree

To each his own as they say. What is ugly about this?
