I really love seeing someone use the 18-55 for a portrait session. When I first got my XT2 in my Fuji endeavors it was all I had and I was always surprised at how well it did. To the point now where I think it's one of the better "character" lenses Fuji has.

Wow Mitch, great work here! Gear actually doesn’t matter when you’ve got good light, a good eye, and a lovely model and you prove that here. A nice video to show there’s no excuses for not getting good images out of the gear you’ve got

My all time favorite "kit" lens of all brands.
Still craving for one, since mine broke down a few years ago, despites the Sigma and Tamron similar options that all see very promising.

I’ve always used primes for portrait, never thought about using a zoom lense for that

I was recently looking up sample images of the Canon RF 50mm f1.2 on Flickr, marvelling at the crap photos people can take with a £2, 500 lens on a full frame camera. Meanwhile you produce these bangers with a £250 kit lens on a crop sensor. The keys to a good photo seem to be mainly golden hour + beautiful experienced model + eye for composition

18 55 is good but.. your skills are just awsome. Unbelivable what you can achieve with this kit lens. This is ART.
Thanks for this video

did you use eye-af or classic one point AF?
great pics!

Great portraits! So what is your current setup, X-T5 is still your main camera or you switched to the GFX?

Hey Mitch, is this new profile works with all cameras? This will be great for my Sony A7C since I think Lightroom butcher the colours, does it still works with your previous preset on top of the profile?

Mitch how did you get sharp images out of 18-55? Mine is a bit softy unless i downstep it lets say F5.6-F7.1

18-55 is definetly extremely cheap for the sharp images it produces and the lightweight
