I really like the horizontal focus indicator when in manual mode. Is there anyway to make it appear when in AF mode? I've tried various settings but it never appears in either the LCD or EVF when in auto mode. This question is for a X-E3

I just received the fuji xf150-600 lens and have yet to get the set/preset buttons working. I must just be misunderstanding how to use them. I focus on a distant object in AF mode (infinity), then I press the 'set' button. Then I focus on a closer (30 ft away) object and press either of the buttons close the then front of the lens and I expect the focus to jump back to the far point but nothing happens. I have the AF-L/Preset/AF switch ON the preset mode. I've also tried the 'set' key in AF and MF modes.

Thanks Jerry, but still not so much. I keep my uploaded photos in D:\CameraUploads. I don't want to keep them under C:\Pictures (or whatever default it's using). I don't use OneDrive. I just want to get the photos from my camera to D:\CameraUploads\<date>\ which is exactly what MyFinePix used to do for me. Now I have to either futz with the different folder on the card and create the date folder myself for each upload. I am pretty frustrated with both Fuji (for not making legacy MyFinePix downloadable) and MS for not providing 'Photos' a simple way to change the default upload destination beyond C:\Pictures. I don't need or want a OneDrive cloud eco system. I have a special drive for unprocessed photos that I want to keep using. Not every picture is worthy of cloud storage, they need to get reviewed and processed. I guess I'll have to keep doing it manually.

I have a new computer and as such no longer have MyFinePix Studio that I used and really liked for transferring files. I would like to know how others are transferring images from camera to computer. This link, https://digitalcamera-support-en.fujifilm.com/digitalcameraengpcdetail?aid=000005058&p=a062w0000035yOdAAI&wd=image+transfer&_ga=2.62903276.1570090719.1676656395-1876888618.1676656395 talks about how to do it with Windows 10 but I have Windows 11. My old process was very simple, I'd connect the camera to the computer, start MyFinePix Studio and transfer the images to a well defined location (it would create the dated directory for me). Now it seems harder, either remove the sd card, find my card reader, create a directory for the images and copy them from the sd card OR camera with the card in. I would like to know what 'workflow' others are using and what suggestion people have for simplest possible transfer to well named directory. I know this might not be a big deal for others, but the loss of MyFinePix transfer is an annoyance I've not yet resolved.

Hey what are good ways to clean the evf eye sensor on my GFX 50R (or any fuji model with eye sensor). It's very hard to get a lens cloth in there and there's not much room to work with. My camera is keeping the evf active even though I have it set to automatically switch between evf and lcd, I think due to the dust on the evf. Googling for an answer seems to only tell me how to clean the cameras sensor.

Fuji support knew exactly what it was - I had a function button assigned for large indicators and I missed that setting. All set! 🙂 I set that function key (which I guess I'm hitting accidentally) to NONE.

I find that often I have Large Indicators on, which I do not like because when I do, I don't have a visual reading for focus distance. I will turn Large Indicators off and later I will find them on again and need to turn them off once more. I have not found a pattern or cause for this. I would expect them to remain off since that is how I set them. Is there some mode or something that I might be using that turns them back on? Mostly I shoot in manual focus with focus key remapped from shutter to quick button, using single shot or focus/ae bracket.

With the rise of the mushrooms this summer, I've been taking a lot of macro mushroom shots. To do this I have been mounting my camera inverted on my tripod (upside down and under) to get the camera really close to the ground. This works well for shot composition but the LCD does not rotate 180 so I have to use it upside down. I have AUTOROTATE turned on and noticed that it only rotates between landscape and portrait mode (90 degrees). Ideally the LCD (view and menus) would rotate 180 degrees so that when my camera is upside down I can still easily tip out the LCD and view it from above. Is this just a firmware adjustment? How can I get this suggestion in front of fuji?
