    FromanZA got a reaction from Snow in X-T3 Focus Hunting   
    With 18-55 lens, Ive had trouble focussing in low light to the point where the camera gives up. I can focus manually then switch back to autofocus change subject and then it wont focus again. I had to go back to Fuji to have the shutter button looked at (its sticky/unresponsive at times) and I tried a video in the Fuji office park and to my unsuprise the camera was doing a similar hunting thing. There does seem to be an improvement over FW3.0 as I didnt see hunting when zoomed out but when zooming in to 55mm the problem is still very much there. Settings were all much the same as before, all auto except aperture. See attached video. Yes, I was shooting through a car window which is not ideal but the camera clearly tries to over focus beyond the cars in the distance and when adjusting the aperture to around f14 the focus hunting dies out. Was on FW2.1 recently for a vacation and not a single bit of focus hunting. The 'improvements' in the FW3 versions I dont think is worth the upgrade from FW2. Camera is back again with Fuji so lets see what they say next!

    From the Fuji technician directly that assisted me with my camera swap out when I had the issue. They apparently get a notification from Fuji before firmware is formally announced to the public. 
    Im hopeful it will solve the problem and I will update straight away because if it’s not solved the camera will again go back and they will give me a brand new one yet again...
    Time will tell if it actually does come out in a few days and whether it solves the problems or introduces more! I’ll post my findings when I can.
