    Welcome. You have to activate „shoot without lens“ in the setup menu of the camera.

    On that lens, there are a couple of switches, one turns OIS on or off. The other switch has two markings, one is A and the other marking looks sort of like a shutter. Sometimes, this switch sticks, so make sure it is definitely moved to the shutter icon side (Move it back and forth a few times to make sure it moves freely.). Once it is in place, you should be able to change the aperture by turning the ring and have the changes listed in the evf or lcd.
    If the switch is on the A side, the camera controls the aperture and you will not be able to change the setting.
    p.s. Welcome to the forum.

    icI'm KC. Im a food/bev/hospitality and lifestyle photographer based out of Philadelphia.
     
    You could say I am also a bit of a fanatic as well. I shoot exclusively on Fujifilm cameras. And after shooting Canon for several years prior, I wouldn't have it any other way. 
    I started with an X100F in 2020 when pandemic killed my first attempt and going solo and I had to unload a lot of gear. I fell in love with it, and it became my event camera. I later grabbed an XT2, 35mm f/1.4, 18-55mm, and a 16mm f/1.4. This year I changed everything and bought a GFX50r, 50mm f/3.5 and 32-64mm f/4 and started shooting off camera flash. It was a game changer. Lastly for fun I grabbed up an XF10 camera and it pretty much goes everywhere with me. I also have a Natura S point and shoot for film fun too.

    hello, long-time casual photographer having started with a Praktica LTL3 back in the 70s I believe…..
    Had various Nikon SLRs, then took a gamble with the X-100 and bought one in the early days… loved the freedom and compact way of photographing ! I’ve just made the jump and ditched my Nikon F gear that was hiding in a cupboard, and bought myself an X-H2s with the 18-55 (for portability), 50-140 and the new XF 8. Loving the H2s experience so far… hadn’t realised how much things had progressed since my Nikon D700..
    Nice to be here 👋

    It depends on the lens and its connectors.

    Hello everyone!
    I’m Bartek and I was working almost 20 years on Nikon. I switched to Fuji 2 years ago. I use 2 x XT3, lenses F 16 1.4, F 23 1.4 , Sigma 56 1.4 , Viltrox 75 1.2 and F 50-140 2.8 . Because I photograph a lot of sports, I have been testing combinations with the Fringer lens adapter for the Nikon system like: Sigma 105 1.4, Sigma 120-3002.8S or Nikkor 300f4 PF.
    Nice to be here:)

    Afternoon everyone, new to the forum, but not new to photography.
    Lets get it out of the way; I am a longtime Canon user, starting with a 10d and ending up with my current R/R5 setup.
    As time has passed I have been more and more Fuji curious, probably down to my growing interest in City and Street photography. 

    My dealer last week had a used X-T2 on the shelf, so I decided to go for it along with a couple of used lenses. I had a day out with it yesterday in one of the local towns, I am already a fan.
    So here to learn a little.

    In this case it‘s most probably just a part‘s name. You would need a service manual to look parts up, but these are not publicly available as far as i know.

    Hello everyone!
    I’m Caden and I am a 24 year old from Bozeman Montana, and currently residing in Barbados! In 2022 I obtained a bachelor’s degree in film and photography from Montana State University. Just a few months ago I traded my canon gear in to make the switch to Fuji and I haven’t looked back since! I currently own an X-T4 paired with a 18-55mm, 56mm 1.2 and Rokinon 12mm 2.0. Planning on getting more/switching up my lenses in the future! I have been absolutely loving the Fuji system and community!

    Hi! I'm Stefan. I've been shooting for 45 years now - starting with Minolta SR-T100X, then Canon FD, Pentax 645 - mainly B&W films and prime lenses. In 2005 I switched to digital Canon 20D (now converted to IR), sold almost all my analog stuff in 2013 and have been shooting full frame with a Canon 6D ever since. I like B&W a lot and have been following Fujifilm for 10 years now. The introduction of the X-T5 finally made me do the system switch last December. I don't remember the last time I had so much fun with just a camera, a B&W "film" (Acros + YE simulation), and a 35mm lens (23mm f2). I recently bought a couple of old lenses that I'm using for digital (X-T5) and film (Minolta SR-T303 and Canon FTb). I'm glad I found this forum because I have tons of questions.

    Hi all,
    I joined this forum back in 2017 when I owned a first version of the X100. Sold it a few years ago, and had planned on buying a X100V for my street/out and about photography. But the hugely inflated prices currently being asked have put a damper on that, so I decided to buy a barely used X-T1 and 23mm f2 WR lens as an alternative. 
    Only been out and about with it once but am very impressed, especially with the functions available on top of camera. Just about all I need without having to delve into menus.
