Good performance in a MacBook Pro

Compatible with...:Mac
This drive was used to replace a 500GB Samsung 840 Pro in an early 2011 MacBook Pro. As with the first drive, it was simple to install and I have had zero problems with its performance. This drive is not quite as speedy as the Pro version, but is just fine and anyone upgrading from a spinning hard disk will be very impressed at the performance boost an SSD offers. For those of you obsessing about whether or not the drive needs a firmware update before installation, I was never able to find a practical way to do this on the Mac so skipped it. This was also the case with the drive it replaced, which has now been repurposed as a portable external drive. To the best of my knowledge the omission has not created any problems. I do use Trim Enabler, however. This is a wonderful way to extend/boost the performance of an aging laptop and get a few more years out of it!
What's great about it: Storage capacity, easy to install
What's not so great: Price, slower than Samsung 840 Pro
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fantastic addition to the Fujifilm X stable

I am a big fan of the Fujifilm X series, and had an x100s, X-E2, and decent assemblage of XF lenses prior to purchase of the X-T1. When I needed another body I debated whether to buy another copy of the X-E2 or spend more $$ on the X-T1. So glad I purchased the latter as it really delivers on several things over the X-E2: better grip in the hand; some additional AF speed; speedier burst mode; continuous AF actually works in high-speed burst mode; nice magnified EVF; tilt screen that I use often; and a great remote shooting/image transfer app that I find myself using all the time. The only things I really miss from the X-E2 are (1) the rangefinder format; (2) the built-in bounceable flash - I will never use the weird little add-on flash that comes with the X-T1 as it cannot be bounced upward; and (3) I wish the dedicated video button could be used as a custom button, as I don't use the camera for video. Fantastic camera overall - only problem is that I like it so much I am tempted to trade in my X-E2 for another copy of the X-T1 so my fingers don't have to recall the differences between the 2 bodies...
What's great about it: Speed, usable continuous AF, tilty screen, great remote iOS app
What's not so great: Wish it had a built-in bounceable flash; prefer the old rangefinder format
I would recommend this to a friend!

Even though the T10 is a smaller, lighter sibling of the T1, I still find it to be solidly built and well-made. I have small hands, and I find all the dials easily accessible and am very impressed with the sensible placement of all the controls. The included lens does not have image stabilization software but still a beautiful lens that is worth keeping. If you love Fuji products, you should not pass this up!

The bundled lens does indeed have image stabilization. That is the OIS part!
