    hildasea got a reaction from hrishihrishi in exposure comp not working in manual mode   
    In full Auto (ISO, time, Aperture) you can with exp. comp ring correct the exposition. If you have all - ISO, time, aperture on nominal value (examle: ISO200, t1/125, f4) you can correct exposition manual with aperture, or time, or ISO ring. When you choose any of this 3 options to A, is ring of exp. compensation active for manual exposition.

    hildasea got a reaction from Jazz1 in XH-1 in 2020   
    I have an XT-3 / X-H1 and the X-H1 camera is my favorite. It is a professional camera and requires a steep learning curve. The construction is very resistant (professional workhorse) and for amateur is this camera for very, very long term use. I´m very happy with the X-H1, mainly the IBIS function is extremely great. (I switch from Canon FF to Fuji 4 years ago).

    hildasea got a reaction from perryma in First Concert Shoot with X-T2 + XF50-140   
    Nice shots. I use this combo for concerts and theatre events and I´m very satisfied.  From my experience is good when the images are from camera flat with lower contrast. Contrast and sharpness I add in PP. Before Fuji I was Canon guy (6D+L glass).
    I wish you many nice shots.

    hildasea got a reaction from crzcar in XT2 : which flash ?   
    I have X-T2 with Nissin i60A + TTL Nissin cord. It works perfect on any distance to subject. I set TTL on "A" and I don´t worry about the exposition. ISO Auto 200-1600, shutter speed A (or if I need 1/250). Optical trigger and HSS is not working. But with 1/500 you lose only 10% of bottom margin of image. With shutter speed 1/400 is full image.
    I´m very satisfied with power, short recharge time and reflector heat resistance. If I have report shooting, I change every ca 50 shots batteries in flash because they are to hot. With two sets of batteries I can use the flash for 100 shots/hour. When are the batteries cold, I replace the hot in flash with the cold. With external power supply you can shoot without any problems. Reflector have no issue.

    hildasea got a reaction from steviewonder in X-T2 FEATURE REQUEST - Choose all or only phase focus points in wide/tracking mode   
    I have X-T2 with powergrip XT2-VPB. My very successful settings for tracking:
    AF-C setting set to second custom preset „Ignore obstacles&continue to track subject“,phase detect area 3x3 (zone focusing), CH 5 shots/minute, and it works fine. The most of photos are razor sharp (soccer).
     
    Conclusion: For good results - lenses with linear AF drive, OIS OFF and powergrip. Not one point AF or wide tracking. Only 5 shots/minute because without blackout in EVF. I´m very happy with results. I was Canon guy.

    hildasea got a reaction from Armagh in X-T2 for soccer!?   
    I purchase an Fuji X-T2 which I've been using to shoot soccer with a zoom XF 50-140/2,8
    It's a big step up from the X-T1 in AF-C capability.
    I've got the AF-C setting set to second custom preset „Ignore obstacles&continue to track subject“, and it works fine. I have done ca. 600 photos and only 4 was total out of focus. The most of photos is razor sharp. Some photos is little bit soft, but without problem - it can be easy solved by post proces.
    Other setting:
    shutter 1/1000, aperture f4, ISO AUTO, phase detect area 3x3 (zone focusing), CH 5 shots/minute, boost ON, grip XT2-VPB. !! lens OIS was OFF !! becausse panning.
    Conclusion:
    I´m very satified with the AF-C and keeper rate.
    Any other settings I should be playing with?
