X-T1, Samyang 12mm f/2.0
 
Edit: BTW if someone knows the model let me know... I was shooting the sunset, didn't have my portrait lenses, and she arrived with another photographer and stood in front of my composition (had the tripod installed and all), so I continued shooting, she was sort of hidden behind the boat, but on one moment the waves made the left boat turn and I had the shot ... and as fast as they appeared, they were gone so couldn't ask for their email to send them the pic, and on the camera LCD she was mostly on silhouette so they wouldn't be so thrilled neither if I showed them the shot then.

My Kaisen love dream:
Bring back a "Discreet mode option" from X-T1 (awfully named Silent mode first then Flash and Sound On/Off)
Which would enable with one toggle, being able to turn all sounds and beeps off, change shutter to electronic and disable focusing light and flash.
I really miss this for events on churches and other venues, but not all the day, just 1-2 hours of the event... now I have to change 4-5 settings. And why remove it? Because the guy who named it messed it up big time? Change the name to "Discreet mode" which is easy to understand, it's a mode and will not get confused with other settings. Can add an icon on screen  and/or even can set it with a AE-L long press or other Fn if don't want to clutter the menus, like the lock from from long pressing Menu/OK.

The name generated confusion, not the feature per se, the feature is awesome and is a great advantage over a DSLR, so take advantage of it!… that's why Fuji smartly included it on the first place. So don't remove it because the naming was bad… just change the name! but to a good one and PLEASE not using the same name for other setting "flash on/off  , noise, electronic, etc" use a new word "Discreet, Stealth  , etc". . If in doubt why not give kaisen some love and run a poll for it's reinstatement and name?. Being able to control ISO with command dial wheels... an equivalent to T mode for shutter speeds, but ISO.
Set the L or H to it, that would be very appealing to every on switching from DSLR and I think I read the GFX will have the option, so will be consistent with that.
  Being able to reverse direction of front/rear command dials to change shutter speed and ISO as to match Canon/Nikon/user preferred direction.
Again making easier to adjust for DSLR previous or simultaneous users. There is the option of change the direction of focus ring, why not the wheel command dials too?
  +1 for  Increase the maximum allowed time selection in T mode, not maxing out at 30 seconds. (mentioned by Isaac)
  +1 highlight warning. Cheers!

Hi,
Just in case you want another example - I've just finished an album where the 50-200 was used almost exclusively (except for the last 2 photos which are 35/1.4)

Hi, I haven't done too many portrait shoot with it yet, though an upcoming album will be almost entirely based on it...
In the meanwhile - you can look at this album:
https://www.facebook.com/dzisserman/media_set?set=a.10154058546103191.1073741929.769908190&type=3
 
The first 6 images of the girl with the light blue costume were shot with the 55-200. The other images in this album were shot with the 35/1.4

Here are the ranges for the various shutter modes in the T setting:
 
ES - 1" to 1/32000
MS - 30" to 1/4000
ES+MS - 30" to 1/32000
 
AE bracketing still +/- 1 EV  . Someone at Fuji must hate HDR...
 
Cheers!

My findings:
 
Tested with 35mm 1.4 @ 1.4
 
AFC works! It never worked for me before the update. Even for relatively static subjects. But now its great! Way more accurate. I can finally use AFC.
 
Eye detection didn't work so well. But my lounge is dimly lit so that could be why.
 
Overall it seems faster! I took a whole bunch of pics and they seemed to write to the card faster?? Usually my camera would blink for ages if I did that. Also reviewing pictures seems to be a bit faster.
 
The new zone af feature is nifty. Works well. I prefer the accuracy of the single af point though.
 
Overall awesome update. More testing for me now.
