  1. We don’t know if the camera was turned off when it wasn’t being used or what type of batteries being used. I agree with the others, I usually get 300+ shots per battery. I found it very easy to switch batteries and haven’t given battery life much thought. That said, I do manage my battery life. I have various Fuji Cameras and I simply turn it off befween shots. (I have switched to manual sensor cleaning as well.) I used to shoot Canon and turning the camera on and off was a pain, as the on/off switch required two hands. With most Fuji cameras it’s very easy, when gripping the camera, to turn it on and off. I simply turn the camera off when I take the camera away from my face and turn it back on when bringing back. When turning the camera on, I found it so fast that it’s ready to shoot instantly. It’s quite a simple movement. I can usually shoot a days worth of shots on my X70 on one battery (400-500 shots). I usually require a battery change on my xpro2 in the middle of the day, using the same technique. I could never go back to Canon or Nikon, as the weight would really be a problem. I had constant wrist problems gripping a Canon with a 24-70 lense in the same way that I do the xpro2 with the equivalent lense. My wrist and I much prefer switching batteries than carrying that extra weight.
