X-T2 / KAIZEN wishlist

I would also love a 5x4 crop with the next firmware update. At present I use the 6 x 4 grid overlay in the viewfinder. This makes it easy to compose in a 5 x 4 ratio. In the menu go to set up, screen set up, framing guidelines. Not as good as the 5 x 4 crop I had in my Nikon but manageable.

When converting an image from RAF to JPEG in camera:

 

Place the converted jpeg in the sequence/order shot, not last in line.

 

That makes it possible to directly compare the unconverted (pre-conversion) jpeg to the in camera converted jpeg.

 

2)

 

When shooting in "EVF Only" the playback of image should be on the LCD, not playback on the EVF (who reviews images in the EVF, regardless of shooting mode?!)

Opps...Re: When shooting in "EVF Only" the playback of image should be on the LCD, not playback on the EVF (who reviews images in the EVF, regardless of shooting mode?!)...that should have referenced the pressing of "Menu"....which should bring up "Menu" on the LCD....image playback from EVF only does in fact play on the LCD.

As to the "get a video camera" argument, not trying to be hostile, but its so tired. Everyone else has strong video offerings, Fuji will quickly fade to irrelevant if it ceases to improve its video capabilities. You do realize Fuji sells more cameras if it appeals to a wider range of shooters, right? 

 

I own 2 XT2's a the 10-24, 18-55, 16-55, 50-140, 55-200, 23/1.4 and 56/1.2 - if it didn't have great 4k video I'd still be shooting with the A7rII and A6300. I know a few other XT2 shooters that would not own the camera if it didn't have its current video capabilities. I loved the stills from the Xpro2, but it was never something I would consider because of its video.

 

Besides the exposure aids and Flog are a simple FW fix, the camera already has the capabilities built in, they just aren't functional.

 

Cheers

 

 

I just don't understand! If one is actually truly interested in video, buy a dedicated video camera! Let manufacturers build the best still camera they can. It's like buying a car and expecting it to seat 12, buy the bus.

 

 

I agree why not just get video camera?

 

Just as Trek of Joy said it above. For my part - i just dont want a dedicated video camera plus a dedicated still camera to lug around. There is the cost and weight of to different bodys an probably different lenses because of a different mount. Not a strong argument to not include video features other manufactures already have..

 

It seems, that they release a professional cinema zoom lense in x-mount.. means they are interested in the video market.

Most important for me would be to further improve AF, its really snappy when focusing on vertical lines but hunting much more when focusing on horizontal lines. Would be great if it worked as fast as the vertical ones.

 

Second one would be to have a silent mode shortcut. For now you have to turn off several option to get silent.

    • Looking more like the next Fuji camera we see will be an X-T50 but it is still a rumor and no specs have been published.
    • Hey guys, The shutter on/off button switch may be loose on mine. After turning camera on and pressing the shutter/holding close to the area, the camera will turn off and say 'sensor cleaning'. This doesn't happen if I'm shooting via touch screen at all. Everything else is functional. Anyone else experience this before? Would love a much cheaper fix since Fuji Canada just quoted me $700 CAD to fix it, and considering everything else is functional except that part I'm not even sure why MPMB Main Board parts is being replaced😕 I got no explanation from them either.
    • As far as I know the firmware is not country specific. Are you sure that the filename has not been changed ( I am told this can happen with mac os). That's the only thing I can think of.
    • My x-t5 does not exhibit the focusing switch behaviour as you report it, so that is very strange and indicative of a fault. It does not matter whether the flash is attached or not. Once you set the camera for your studio flash, say 1/250th at f5.6, the camera, which is showing you what you will get at that exposure without the flash, will show a black screen unless the ambient light is brighter than what you would typically get indoors. That is why, as Jerry says, you have to set preview exp/wb to off. I have set a button for this.
    • I connected to FRAME.IO a while back and it works fine, but the camera wouldn't connect to the internet all of a sudden today and would get stuck on the reset screen, including initializing and even switching USB Connection mode. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
