Yep, thank for being such a big help... have left the camera in MS

Okay I found the problem.... I had my shutter in ES instead of MS, now after switching to Mechanical Shutter the Bulb setting works..

No the only thing it will do is a 1 second exposure, this is why it is frustrating. I have tried to see if the dial will set the exposure but the indicator stays at 1" The RR-90 Remote that I have works fine, as I use the same corded remote on my Pentax K-3 last night doing long exposures. I have played and played with the dial to see if that was being finicky, but it just seems to not want the B to work properly. It looks like I may have to send this into Fuji for further looking into, which is more frustrating because I love this camera.

Well so far no luck, looks like until I get the X-T1's long exposure figured out I will be using my Pentax K-3.

I will have to buy a new one I guess, the only other thing I haven't tried is the WiFi app thru my cell phone.

I for the life of me can not figure this out... When I have set the camera in B mode using a cabled release it seems that the most available time I get is 1.0 and in T I get just 1.6 seconds. I know the B works as I one time got a 30 second exposure at night before. I had hoped for those nice Milky Way and night photography shots like I get with my Pentax K-3. When trying this I have switched the X-T1 to manual, switched OIS off, have used various ISO and f stop settings to no avail. Any help would be very much appreciated

I have both, the 18-55 is mainly for night photography, and taking wave shots in Hawai'i because I picked up a Hoya 58mm ProND1000 Filter, 10 Stops (3.0) to get the effects that I want on the waves and water. I use the 18-135 quite a bit, both in normal and very low light, here are a couple of 18-135 hand held examples shot this last Sunday at our church gathering at Canvas Church in Kalispell, MT. Then yesterday while I was in Starbucks, I used the 18-55 which did not attract any attention from anyone while I was using it. And then at the Holiday Inn Express last night, while my wife was shopping at a local store. So while heading over to Hawai'i this Saturday, I will be shooting some indoor shots at the different airports, and different static shots looking at sharpness and over all image quality. So far, I am very impressed with the X-T1 and either of these two lenses. 18-135 Crystal said, this is my bad side Jon Crystal Lynn by Jon Erdmann, on Flickr The stage is 50 feet from where I am shooting from Celebratiion by Jon Erdmann, on Flickr 18-55 At the counter in Starbucks Starbucks by Jon Erdmann, on Flickr Holiday Inn Express Holiday Inn Express by Jon Erdmann, on Flickr

I have a Manbily AZ 310 tripod, and for travel will be getting the gorilla pod for the sake of traveling and what it can do.

Thank you all for replies... I really don't need the flash at all, as I have been shooting without one for so long anyway. I can't wait to arrive in Hawai'i to reclaim some photography that was lost due to a computer crash after our last trip in 2012. It will be fun getting all those images again, as the swells are higher and stronger from the reports I have seen. Thanks again

With just having my X-T1 arrive yesterday and then going through the settings using advice from Setting Up The FujiFilm X-T1 I have yet to find a way to turn on the sound to allow the flash. I have double checked in the menu options etc, but the flash still fails to work as the LCD indicates that the sound is turned off. Now I must say at first impressions using the FX 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 lens I am very impressed with the sharpness and resolution of the images I shot last night, even though this was not the lens I was suppose to get when I ordered my X-T1, that is being handled and the FX 18-55mm f/2.8-4mm lens is being sent on it's way.

Thank you

Stunning images thank you for sharing Tibet with us.

Greetings everyone, I'm here in from NW Montana been shooting DSLR's since way back and look forward as I move into the X System with the XT1.

Well I had moved over from Canon to Pentax, and now after much reviewing and studying I am moving to the XT1, which was just ordered yesterday from Fumfie.com. After all the image samples that I have reviewed, I must say that I can not wait as I have a vacation trip to two Hawaiian islands on Mar 5th through the 26th.
