Fujifilm X-T5 and 50mm F1 Natural Light Photoshoot

In my latest video, I dive into a portrait photoshoot using the Fujifilm X-T5 paired with the 50mm F1 lens—one of my all-time favorite setups. I’ve always appreciated the versatility of this lens, especially its ability to create stunning portraits with a slightly wider view than the typical 85mm.

During the shoot, I experimented with both natural and off-camera flash lighting, highlighting the importance of understanding your gear and the environment. This session reminded me that while modern technology is fantastic, sometimes it's refreshing to return to the basics, relying more on ambient light and less on additional equipment.

I also touched on the importance of adaptability during a shoot, especially when dealing with challenging lighting conditions. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, this video showcases how a well-chosen lens can elevate your photography, making every shot count.
