That’s interesting. Can’t say I’ve encountered it before. Some lenses have the manual focus clutch that you slide back to enable MF. Some have a switch also. What lens do you have on when this happens? Does it happen with more than one lens? Is your firmware up to date?

I’ve used them plenty with no issues

I don’t have experience with the Videomic Go, I do however use the Videomicro with no issues. Sound is great. You just need a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter. Your mic should work fine.

First and foremost ensure you have the most up to date firmware. You can configure Lightroom to “watch” a folder and automatically import anything from it. If you download the free Fujifilm XAcquire tethering software, you can tether into Lightroom. Or you browse Lightroom’s add on(?) manager and find the fujifilm tethering plugin. That’s a solid $80 for the pro version though

You can't customize a specific button to perform back button focus, however the AF-L is already programmed to perform the action.

Depends on the features you're looking for. I'm not familiar with any of those flashes or what they offer. I use the Yongnuo YN-560 IV with the X-Pro2 and they're great. All manual, simple.

What kind of functionality are you looking for? Not to sound coy but if you look through the manual you'll find answers to nearly all of your suggestions. Pages 5 and 6 describe the available "Press" and other functionality to the front and rear control dials. Movie/video recording, by default, is the Fn1 button next to the shutter.

The important thing as asked by Chucktin, are you using a good sturdy tripod? Maybe it's camera shake.

Look through your manual. You'll find it points to the lever on the front of the camera for EVF and OVF options

The simplest solution for you would be to use the LCD in those scenarios

Two things come to mind for your issue. One of which may be the eye relief adjustment knob to the left of the viewfinder. Or perhaps it's a little underexposed, a known characteristic of the Xtrans III sensor. Does the image become clearer with different exposure adjustments?

Get the Nikon flashes if you want to pay a fortune for functionality you cannot use. I recently picked up some Yongnuo YN560 IV and the YN560 TX for Canon systems. At $70 you can't beat the power you get with them. They're manual, you can control their power and zoom from the transmitter on the hot shoe, and plenty powerful. I've never had an issue with them.

Interesting. Have you contacted Fujifilm with your issue? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's not a problem. The eye sensor is only called that because you typically put your eye to the viewfinder. It's just s light sensor that when the ambient light drops a significant amount (like placing your eye to the viewfinder) it switches over for you. The sensor is just to the right of the OVF. You can cover it with your finger and make it switch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have you contacted Fujifilm about your issue? I imagine if it were the lighting you would probably see the bands in all of your images. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After some research, I recently ordered some Yongnuo YN560-IV speed lights and the YN560-TX controller for Canon. I've heard good things regarding these on Fuji cameras. I'll post back if anyone is curious on their performance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Absolutely right about the raw+jpeg. I just activated mine the other day. I've heard so many great things about the jpeg processing I wanted to explore it while still having raw flexibility. I'm moving over from my Nikon D300 I've been shooting with for the past 8 years, strictly raw, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the Fuji. I really enjoy the customization with the X-Pro2, the menu system is intuitive. Custom white balance is a must in my book. The built-in ones are decent in a pinch but I like to get it right in camera. Moving fast though I'll select the appropriate WB for the scene and subject. I need to spend more time with the various film simulations as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What custom settings are you all using in camera? Feel free to share some work to go along with it too! Disclaimer: I've had my X-Pro2 for less than a week, it's my first Fuji camera so I'm still getting accustomed to it. As such, I don't quite have any custom settings to fit my style

I tried it, it's limited but dialing mine down to -5 warmed it up a little but it still has a slight blue hue. If you're needing color accuracy I'd suggest the OVF or LCD Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks for the response .

According to the manual you can change the brightness and hue of the EVF for better color rendition. Haven't tried it yet, but I'm about to Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi everyone, I just received my X-Pro2 the other day and I'm in love. I checked the firmware version and it was already up to date. Has anyone else received a unit with the new firmware installed?

These are great! I love the lighting too. Really well done May I ask your setup for these? Lights, triggers, and what not? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
