I had been photographing with heavy DSLRs, but after suffering constant, kitbag-induced backache on a trip around India, I decided to make a change.<\/p>\n<p>I was interested in mirrorless, but with so many new bodies on the market from lots of brands, it turned out to be a bit of a minefield. It was after I\u2019d seen a friend using the FUJIFILM X-T1 that I investigated Fujifilm a little further. The look of the cameras was the first thing that enticed me. The dials on the body and aperture ring on the lenses were so retro \u2013 I loved it!\u00a0I&#8217;m not very technically minded, and while the X Series cameras are highly capable, they aren\u2019t purely spec-driven. Much of my photography is based around feeling \u2013 and Fujifilm was a natural fit.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-FEATURED.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-FEATURED.jpg\" alt=\"Sea flowing around wooden groyne with pink and blue skies above\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo 2022 \u00a9 Emily Endean | FUJIFILM X-T3 and XF10-24mmF4 R OIS WR, 5 sec at F10, ISO 80<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><p>I purchased the <a href=\"products\/cameras\/x-t3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FUJIFILM X-T3<\/a> and was hooked after one outing. It was really easy to pick up and learn, and I just loved the images I was creating. It\u2019s been all over with me, and I found it was much easier to travel with than my old systems.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m a chaser of light, an ocean addict and lover of nature, relishing being outside as much as possible. I absolutely adore capturing the beauty of the world through my lens, especially when the weather is most interesting. As I\u2019m out in all conditions, being able to rely on my kit is vital \u2013 and X Series has certainly proven itself.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-2.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-2.jpg\" alt=\"Cliff overlooking stormy sea under grey skies\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo 2022 \u00a9 Emily Endean | FUJIFILM X-T3 and XF18-55mmF2.8-4 R LM OIS, 1\/4 sec at F11, ISO 80<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><p>When at home, I\u2019m mostly found down the beach at sunrise, X-T3 in hand. I grew up near the sea, sharing a connection with it that goes way back to my childhood, with many happy memories. Seeing the sunrise over the water stirs up so much emotion, and it\u2019s something I try to instil in my imagery.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll either be photographing the movement of the waves from the shoreline, or put my camera into an underwater housing and get right out there. Both types of seascape photography are so mindful, engaging the senses and encouraging me to slow down\u00a0and take notice. I love watching how the ever-moving water influences my image on the live LCD, then playing with settings accordingly, to get creative. The X-T3 feels like an extension of my eye and mind, taking the images I\u2019ve visualised and bringing them into existence. It turns fleeting moments into something more permanent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-3.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10-YEARS-OF-XMOUNT-ENDEAN-3.jpg\" alt=\"Sun setting behind calm sea\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo 2022 \u00a9 Emily Endean | FUJIFILM X-T3 and XF60mmF2.4 R Macro, 1\/500 sec at F5.6, ISO 200<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><p>In summary, X Series cameras have taken me on an adventure I never could have expected. They\u2019ve been essential in the natural development of my photography. I\u2019ve gone from simply observing and documenting scenes from the water\u2019s edge, to getting fully submerged and changing my perspective completely. Becoming an X-Photographer is the latest part in this exciting journey \u2013 and I really look forward to being more involved with the brand that has helped shaped my story.
