Shooting HDR With The X-Pro 2

Bodie Church

When shooting Bodie, a ghost town high in the Sierras of California, I had my ten-month-old baby with me and I needed to be able to get some shots quick without thinking about it. It was also 94 degrees outside and somehow raining on and off. I felt that bracketing shots was a good approach to getting an interesting takes on this crazy California ghost town. I was so confident in the X-Pro 2 to be able to do this that I even left my A7rII in my car, hidden of course.

With the new +-2EV bracketing, HDR on the X-Pro 2 is a lot of fun and much much easier.

So how do you shoot HDR on the X-Pro 2?

Joshua Tree – Fujifilm XT1

A few weeks ago I found myself in Joshua Tree. I’ve been there a few times now but this time around things were going to be different. I had some new lenses, new cameras, and a different eye.

The last few years I’ve been shooting a lot of Landscape and HDR photography and found myself getting stuck with the routine that often comes with those styles. I was just going with the trends and I needed to hit the breaks.

This year I’m trying to shoot everything I can, looking for those incidental stories and moods. It can be challenging to get great shots, but at least this way the results are your own.

Fukuoka City Rush & What’s Coming Up

Fukuoka City Street Photography

The other day I accidently posted this image as part of my Fujinon 56mm f1.2 Review. I’ve been actually working on two reviews simultaneously and this photo was for my Fujinon 10-24mm f4 Review.

Anyway, still working on my Fujinon 10-24mm f4 review. It’s a bit more complicated and takes a lot longer since it is a zoom lens. There are also a lot of settings I’m still experimenting with on the Fuji X-T1 and I’m learning a lot about this camera.

For example the camera automatically corrects for some diffraction. It’s called Lens Modulation Optimization.

A Perfect Day In Southern Japan

A perfect day in Southern Japan.

We finally had a break in the weather. It’s been stormy and windy because of the typhoon, but yesterday it cleared up for a perfect day.

I’m not exactly sure where these rice terraces are on a map, but they were pretty amazing. They extend all the way down into the bay and to the right, out of frame were these giant windmills just over the hill. It was such a perfect view. And not a soul was there.

Ishibashi Bridge And HDR With The X-T1

HDR of Ishibashi Rei-dai-kyo in Southern Japan

I’ve been really excited to get back out to where no white man has ventured before to shoot with that Funinon 10-24mm f4 lens. 

The time of day and weather hasn’t been great but HDR photography fixes all. It blows my mind sometimes the software and technology available to us today. 

Some of the scenes I’ve been shooting have been so bright with insane daylight contrast, I thought for sure there was no way you could create a photo out of it. Six exposures later and everything completely changes.
