It is my pleasure, Sue. Always happy to help and let me know if you have any further questions in the future. Best of luck with the choices. G

Hi Greg

I really do appreciate that you have responded to my query so comprehensively . It’s difficult to get this sort of information and you are the only person that has given me a straight answer, so I thank you for that. I’m currently researching lenses and will have to decide carefully which (and how much I can afford) as they are more expensive compared to Nikon options. I’m going to loan the X-S10 for a weekend so am looking forward to trying it out. Thank you very much x

Hi Sue. Thanks. A lot of people move from DSLR/larger mirrorless kits as they are heavy and cumbersome. I moved from a big Canon kit years ago to Fujifilm as the size and weight reduction made a huge difference to my comfort and joy of photography. Keep in mind that while the Fujifilm XS10 is much smaller and lighter than a DSLR, the lenses are usually also smaller and lighter than Nikon lenses. For example, the Fujifilm XS10 is around 500g and the Fujifilm XF 55-200mm (there is a pic of it in the review) is 580g. The kit has a nice balance to it plus the large grip of the XS10 makes a big difference to balance and control. A Nikon D850 weighs 1kg exactly without a lens. An equivalent 200mm f/4 Nikon lens weighs 580g. If anything, the Nikon equivalent is unbalanced and rear-end heavy. Regardless, the combined Nikon kit is 1.5kg and the Fuji kit is only 1kg. That weight saving equals comfort and less hassle carrying heavy gear. There is a 200mm f/2 Fujifilm prime but it is a huge beast that weighs 2.3kg and costs upwards of AUD$8,000. I would not recommend using the XS10 with that camera – better off with a Fujifilm X-T4 for that. I hope this additional info has helped. I recommend looking at the full range of Fujifilm lenses to see if what they offer matches your needs. Take a look at the sizes and weights – regardless, the lens mount ring on the Fujifilm XS10 will support any of the Fuji lenses. I have reviewed most of the Fuji lenses on Shotkit.com so check out those reviews and build an idea of your ideal kit. Best of luck. https://shotkit.com/gear-reviews/lenses/fujifilm/

Hi Ikhlaque. From my knowledge, yes you can set ISO to various Auto defaults such as Auto 1 100-800, etc. This should override the camera’s Auto mode when trying to determine ISO. Best of luck. G

Thanks Jim. It is a brilliant camera that will meet a lot of needs for most enthusiast photographers. Best of luck. G

It certainly ticks a lot of boxes. Cheers. G
