These were shot at ISO 200, the base ISO for the 5MP sensor. I realize that high ISOs are the holy grail, and everyone jumped on the CMOS bandwagon, but, to me, the colors were degraded in the changeover. I am hoping that the X-T2, when it gets released, will be an improvement. That could convince me to go further down the Fuji road. Thanks for the kind words. The images are cropped, and I kept the posted sizes small, for that reason. The cropping is probably responsible for the noise that you notice.
