a marigold by any other name.... ;)  :) ... would be a calendula!

 

The noise is really very very high indeed, was it something you wanted (1600 ISO)?

 

Perhaps a little enthusiastic processing?

 

 you  could bring it down a little  if you wanted with Google NIK D fine

Milandro, thanks it is a heavy crop which has accentuated the grain, something I didn’t take into account. The ISO of 1600 was to up the shutter speed. An example of too much haste spoils the broth so to speak, I must learn to slow down and be less gung ho, a good object lesson.

Mike, I’ve never heard that the crop that you’ve done, on its own, can augment noise. You should have plenty to crop from your 24MP. This image is 258Kb.

 

Unless this was 1% part of the total surface when you shot it. Then it might.

 

 

Anyway processing certainly can. I’d suggest to give the NIK suite (free) a try. As you can see I did this from the picture that you published here and managed (did nothing else than putting it through the automatic engine) to get quite a bit of noise out.

 

I am extremely happy with it.

    • 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?
    • I used this for the latest firmware no problems. https://fujifilm-x.com/en-gb/support/download/firmware/cameras/x-t2/
    • I was just about to point that out, in my defense.
