It's very difficult to post photos here, considering it's a photography forum.

I realize this is mostly a forum for talking about equipment, but considering that (ideally) most of us are photographers who take photos with our Fuji gear, I feel like it's a problem that posting photos on this forum is cumbersome and limited. Limiting us to 1MB of photos per post? A complex multi-step process to load photos to a post? 

 

Shouldn't we be able to post whole photo series to share our successes and frustrations that make us love the system (or make us want to ask for change, or assistance)

I think you're underestimating how much infrastructure is required in order to serve a photo repository to a bunch of photography forum nerds!

 

This whole website likely sits on a server with less than a few gigabytes of space available to it. Also, the software that this forum runs on is not specifically catered to photography - it's a generic forum software called IPBoard, which is used by many online forums.

 

It's much better to leave the hosting of images down to third parties such as Instagram or Flickr.

 

If you upload your photos to Flickr, you can click the share icon and then choose the BBCode section to copy the appropriate code to paste into a thread here. Alternatively you can host your images on somewhere like Imgur and get the BBCode in order to paste.

I find very easy to post pictures here. I’ve posted many and find it much easier than many other places. I simply resize them to 1250 px. wide 

 

Note there is no limit to the amount of pictures in as many posts as you want.

 

If you find it difficult just simply reference it to an outside place ( Flickr or something like that) and people will see them in all their weight and splendor.

There are other Fuji-X forums better suited for photo sharing. At least with much more activity. Worth taking a look there as well [emoji4]

Could you point me in their direction? I've found two others but they haven't had any posts in weeks.

Blue Jays are tricky to get good photos like you have, they tend to fly away as soon as the lens cap comes off 😀.

      I own the Fuji X-T1 and X-H1. I own several Fuji lenses but I tend to use 3rd party vintage manual glass which I find quite enjoyable to use. I'm testing a photo here taken from my Flickr account that showcases the Tokina 100-300mm Zoom lens with 1.4 extender.

      CANNOT BACKUP OR RESTORE X-T4 SETTINGS WITH FUJI X ACQUIRE

      By Astigmatism · Posted

      Forgot to mention another thing. Mine does not work if I plug the USB cord into a USB hub. It only works if I plug the cord into one of the USB ports on my computer itself (an iMac). This surprises me because I think there's a hub built into the computer itself, which is how the computer has multiple USB ports in the first place. I think it was somebody here that suggested I try that -- sorry I don't remember who!

      xPro1 can't change aperture with fujinon 27mm

      On another forum someone suggested spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the wheel but the Fuji tech said that could risk frying the rest of the cameras electrical so I haven't tried that.

      Potential bug in X100VI - C mode, screen going very dark

      By sfainbraun · Posted

      I have an x100VI with 1.01 firmware - did a reset already and didnt solve issue I am about to describe. Can you all see if your camera does this: Switch to C mode, step down to f16 and then press shutter half way. Does your screen go dark? I have tried playing will all settings (have had the following so quite familiar with the menus: x100, x100f, XT-2, X-Pro 2, XT-3) , only happens in C mode. If you find this can you report to Fuji @ digitalinfo@fujifilm.com. They told me they had not seen this before and that it was normal behavior because the shutter is closing, but the shutter closes in S mode as well.
