X-T1 Cycles On/Off rapidly


Recommended Posts

I've had my X-T1 for 1 1/2 years now and have been very pleased with it.  In the last month or so I've had something strange happen on occasion.  This only happens once a week or so...when I turn on the camera the LCD screen cycles On/Off or view/black rapidly...maybe twice a second.  I'll then turn it off and on again and sometimes that will fix the problem, sometimes I'll have to turn it on/off 3 or 4 times to clear the problem.  This happened before the latest firmware and again several times after installing the new firmware.  I'm wondering if it might be some type of "lens error" issue.  It doesn't happen enough to determine if it's my 18-135 lens.  Haven't noticed if it happens with other lenses.  has anyone else had an issue like this?  ...thanks

Double check the connectors on the lens, that could be something there that could be blocking it.

 

Also, I guess you check that you have the lens correctly locked into the mount right ? I have had some issues with the 35 F2 where it was misbehaving because I didn't turned it fully in.

    • Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.
    • I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.
    • So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?
    • All software is the latest between camera and app. All settings are correct on camera. I have both lossless and uncompressed RAW files on the card in the camera. I have been up and down every reddit thread to no avail and am losing my mind… I’m doing all of the right things. It even sees my camera. It just doesn’t create the “drive” for it (see attached image screenshot).  Please Help!
