Make sure you enter the final contest to win a set of your own.
My first camera was a Minolta SRT-101. I loved that camera. It was an excellent tool for learning about photography and manual exposure.

Fast forward 20-plus years and the way I use an internal light meter has remained largely unchanged. That all changed recently.
Landscape photography brings us to the most beautiful places all over the world and there are so many of them out there, that it is impossible to visit them all in one lifetime.

In this article, I offer a friendly critique and some suggestions for Fuji to improve an already great camera system.
