XPAN for PJ

[marksct]

I love the XPan/Tx ratio. Reminds me of the wide screen movie.

I am interested in anyone who is using the XPAN or TX for Photojournalist type work?

What are you photographing?
Where do you photograph?
Any favorite film for PJ work?

Mark,

Speaking strickly as a wedding photographer is a really hard camera to use for true candid shots, unless you are very good at "zone focusing", I used as a companion to my 35mm 105 lens, the idea is to get a real tight close-up and a broad look with the "pano", is great for tight places.

For film I use BW 400

Regards

Hugh

I am not a pro, just hobbyist. But I bought Fuji TX-1 mainly for street or people photography, not for landscape. Like you, I like the ratio. Mostly I do candid.
