No - I don’t think so - it means you can take pictures if you remove the lens completely - but I’m not sure that is a problem

The short answer is no but if X Raw Studio noise reduction doesn’t give you the results you like why not process them with another raw processor? You could then apply noise reduction together with whatever other processing you want to do.

I had no problem finding a spot at the beach this afternoon.  Was not crowded at all.
GFX100 RF.

Hello Greybeard,
That's exactly it! Two minutes after making that post, I discovered I had to set the dial to “C” to solve the problem
Thank you so much for your answer.
Happy New Year!

If the spots are in the same place every time then its likely a dirty sensor - you can buy a sensor cleaning kit and do it yourself or take it in to get cleaned professionally.

I really like the 90/f2 - especially now that I have camera with IBIS - its a very personal thing but I'd go for the extra reach

You can disable the Exposure Compensation dial by setting it as a lock function in the Button/Dial menu.
Then a long press on the menu button will lock or unlock it.
This applies to most recent FujiFilm cameras including X-E5 and X-T5.

Doesn't look good - maybe you could contact the FujiFilm support group in France and ask them - they might also be able to estimate a repair cost.

Thats weird - is this both raw and jpeg? The colours look a bit off as well.
Just in case - have you tried a complete settings refresh?

Looks like ADV mode - Toy Camera is on - make sure drive mode dial is set to "S"

in AF-C FujiFilm cameras stop down when you half press the shutter - in AF-S they don't

Like Jerryy says you can scale you image down so that it can be uploaded - that way we aren't guessing.
The only symbol that looks like a camera is the Continuous Mode symbol - but it normally has "L" or "H" next to it rather than a "1"

Is this on the X-T30 II?
Sounds like you have HDR selected in the shooting menu.
The other alternative when you see the "storing" message is that the Clarity setting is non-zero but that doesn't cause multiple clicks.

According to the Viltrox web site it appears to be Micro USB
Viltrox 56/1.4

How about using a phone or a tablet? This is probably the fastest and easiest way to do it.

Its a bit difficult to answer without seeing the original image file.
Where did you focus? Is that point sharp? Or is the entire image (including the point of focus) soft?
 

Yes, I managed to replicate the issue - took a photo, numbered DSCF1232. Copied to the SSD drive, where is appears as DSCF1233. Take a second photo on the camera - this is DSCF1234.

That sounds correct - I think all recent non PASM cameras work this way allowing you to fine tune a selected shutter speed - its the same with my X100VI

Hmm - I don't seem to be able to replicate it with my camera

p.s. That raw file format is looking pretty good about now, eh? 😀😀

The number will drop if you delete the images with the highest numbers.
Try deleting an image from the middle of the batch on the card.
The number won't go down because you still have the image with the highest number on the card.

Make sure you have Dynamic Range set to DR100 (on the second page of the Image Quality Setting menu)

Screen Setting menu => Disp Custom Setting => EVF/LCD => AF (or MF) Distance Indicator
(and make sure you don’t have Large Indicators turned on)

It might depend on your computer - but using a card reader should be the fastest method of transferring files (make sure the reader is able to support the fastest read speed of your cards)
