| Fuji X-E2, 18-55mm, ISO 1600, ƒ/3.2, 1/500 |
Back in June this year I was in Hawaii teaching 30+ students who were going to travel the world using photography as a way to engage with people.
While I was there I had my Fuji X-E2 on me at all times. This helped me to capture moments like this when on the last night of the classes before they departed for Panama, Turkey and Thailand they captured moments with each other.

While I also own the Fuji XF 55-200mm, I found many times that the 18-55mm inside was long enough lens for many situations.

I did use the Fuji XF 55-200mm in situations where I needed the longer lens as here with the people on the stage.

I also used it to compress the scene as I did here in Kona, Hawaii. I love using the lenses with the OIS turned on because I am usually hand holding these when making most of the photos.

The dynamic range of the sensor is also awesome. Here you can see that the people are well exposed, but the curtains and the TV are not blown out. I was able to hold the details from the highlights to the shadows.

This was my favorite photo from my entire trip. Getting this photo is just not going to happen with your smart phone. Again I am holding together from the very bright screens of the computers to the shadows of the chairs they are sitting in.
I love the Fuji X-E2 because it is small enough and yet I am not giving up the ability in low light that many other cameras do that are this small.

All comments are reviewed.This is done primarily to eliminate spamming. Please be patient, I maybe on assignment and unable to review right away.
But to increase meaningful conversation, sometimes it’s necessary to reduce the not-so-meaningful bits. Here are the kinds of things we’ve been deleting in recent posts. Please avoid these types of comments:
One-word comments like “Cool!” or “Thanks!” While we appreciate the congrats, we’d love to hear more about what exactly you love, and (even more importantly) why.
Shameless self-promotion. Comments that contain links to your site within the body or otherwise encourage folks to visit your blog are a no-no. If you’d like to increase traffic to your blog, there are other places than here to do that.
Multiple comments by one author. We’re glad you want to be engaged, but please give others a chance to speak, too.
Really long comments. Let’s just say that if you need to take more than three breaths to read your comment, it’s probably too long.
