Well, I bought yet another camera. The FujiFilm XT3. Nice camera, it is a an upgrade for me from the XT20, a bit larger and a little heavier and a lot faster. I shot the Denver Aquarium last weekend with the XT20 and I noticed it was pretty slow writing files and super low light yielded expected amount of grain. I love the Fuji systems!! The focus on XT3 is spot on and it did really well in low light. I am keeping the XT20 for hikes but, selling my Nikon gear. Ditching the DSLR, so sad, but it makes sense. The technology in the mirrorless systems has really improved and after shooting with the XT20 for over a year now I am convinced that mirrorless is the way to go, especially for travel - that's what I do. I took the XT20 to Greece and believe me not lugging around that gigantic Nikon around really saved my neck and back. The raw files on the XT3 are super fat, like 35MB - I still have 3TB on my Raid, so far so good.
The weather has been, well, blah in Colorado. Two weeks ago we had the cyclone bomb and now it is just gloomy and Denver beige. No fun having a new camera and not being able to get out and shoot. Anyway, the sun was out today and we decided to take out the new members of the family (Erich is the proud owner of the Nikon Z6) to Denver and shoot some architecture in the Golden Triangle (a.k.a. the arts district).
We purchased a yearly membership at the Denver Art Museum, why not? This was our first time to the museum and I really enjoyed it. The rooms and quantity of art was not overwhelming like some other art museums I have been too. We went to the Prado in Spain, it was huge and we were exhausted by the end of the day and only saw maybe a 10th of it.
Camera: Fuji X-T3
The lower light images are not too bad, minimal grain. I set the ISO for most of the shots at 1600. I am very pleased with the low light capability.
Jordan Casteel's work is incredible! I love the emotion you can feel in her work.
