  1. Hi, I am looking through this forum and other pages / videos to find out what I am doing wrong with my Fujifim configurations & CamRanger 2 because I just can't get it work.  I haven't even successfully taken one single photo without my CamRanger 2 freezing.  

     

    I went through their YouTube videos (CamRanger's YouTube page) and articles but still my X-T3 doesn't work with it.  Do you have any suggestions?  Thank you in advance, 

  2. I've noticed when doing studio portraits that when I pull the images into LR on my Mac they appear about 1 stop underexposed.  The images look great on my cameras LCD and look normally exposed.  I did a comparison with my Nikon D7100 and what I see on camera matches my Mac perfectly.  I guess I could adjust my X-T1 screen brightness down a bit (its set to default) to try and compensate but its still rather annoying.  I like to nail the exposure perfectly in camera.  Problem doesn't seem as prevalent when shooting in existing light/outdoors.  

     

    Has anyone noticed this?

     

    Are you checking exposure by checking the histogram?  

  3. I upgraded from X-E1 to X-T1 and honestly I'm not missing out anything of X-E1.  
     
    OK, the weight of X-E1 was slightly lighter than X-T1 but that maybe about it.  
     
    X-T1 focuses much faster than X-E1 - when you get X-T1 you will perhaps realize that X-E1 really was one of the first generation mirrorless cameras, hence super slow focus.  I kept updating the firmware but it didn't help too much.  X-E1's slowness was killing me.  
     
    And I know it's not quite related to the topic here, but Fuji X-Series cameras all take great photos in my opinion, even the lowest ranked model like X-A1.  The lenses do matter much more, so I second milandro's opinion, that it's better to buy X-T1 used instead of new.  You can get the deal like $450 USD or so nowadays.  
     
    Save yourself some money by buying used X-T1 if you haven't, and get another lens with the money you saved...  X-T1 is definitely a great camera, which used to be the flaghship model of Fuji X-Series.  I especially love the ISO dial where you can manually expose and preview your slightly overexposed/underexposed images, this is quite inspiring, I must say!

  4. Takasphoto - I really enjoyed your photostream. Just so you're aware, though, the above post isn't showing the picture correctly on this thread, just a lot of code, might be worth correcting the link?

    Thank you, I think I fixed it - excuse me, it was my first post ever on this forum.  And I appreciate your help!
