One family trip, one lens

So we decided to spend Passover on a trip to a friend's house near the El Palmar beach.

This was an opportunity to learn my lesson from a previous trip to Boquete. I carried to many cameras then, and this time I made sure that all family memories for this trip would be recorded using one camera with one lens, the excellent and sharp Fujifilm X-100T. For those who don't know this camera, this is a fixed 35mm equivalent lens camera, small, light, excellent for travel.

Indeed, lesson well learned. I did not find the need for any additional gear on this family trip. I brought the Fuji wherever I went, and I took as many pictures as I pleased.

I have heard many times the question what camera I'd recommend. Usually people ask me because they want to take better pictures of their families. They'd like the camera to be light, but worry it’d be compromised in terms of quality. One and again I like to suggest this camera, but I'm not sure serving well people about a camera not many know about where I live. Perhaps I should be less a fool and let people make their own choices, hopefully they get to meet this camera and fall in love with it and its pictures, the same way I have.

All photos are straight out of the camera with little process. Enjoy.
