Thank you. It is set to focus priority. The issue is that intermittently the camera shutter fires multiple times with one press of the shutter when it is on single. Fuji are seemingly unable to fix the issue presumably because it is an intermittent problem.

I had the same issue with my XT3 The issue was caused by a software update I believe but was then rectified with a later update. It works fine now.

For information the issue is still there.Fuji have changed the top plate, the mother board and now the shutter has been replaced but still the fault remains! Has anyone else experienced this issue?I have to say that Fuji are being helpful.

The camera was returned with a new top plate. Almost immediately the issue of multiple activations with one press started again. It was getting quite irritating so that I diddn't want to use the camera. Contacted Fuji and they asked me to sed it back to them. All free postage by the way. They had it for a week but couldn't recreate the issue so nothing was done to it. It was returned and the issue seems to have gone. Let's keep our fingers crossed that it remains so.

I am trying to decide what lens to get. I am an enthusiastic amateur photographer with severe GAS! I have an xpro3 and a few lenses and own a 50mm F2 and I was thinking to buy a 56mm lens for some portraiture and general use. Do I purchase a used Fuji 56mm 1.2 or a Sigma 56mm 1.4? The Sigma seems to have excellent reports as does the Fuji. Some say that the Fuji misses focus on occasion. I have not seen similar reports for the Sigma. Does anyone have any real world advice on either lens please?

I have an update on this issue. I returned my camera with about one day left of the warranty. According to the paperwork that came back with the camera the top plate and eye piece were replaced. The camera appeared to be working fine, the shutter release seemed to work as it should. Within a few days the problem of multiple activations started again. One press would fir the shutter two or three times. Not every time but certainly every day and several times a day. Its very irritating and frustrating. I contacted Fuji who have asked me to send the camera back to them, I have found Fuji very helpful. I shall keep you updated. Incidentally a non warranty repair was shown as £220 I believe. I have had a non warranty repair of a lens recently and Fuji cannot be faulted. I am very implressed with their service. I follow a professional photographer and Youtuber who was raving about the Xpro3 but he had a similar issue with the shutter release being hesitant. He got rid of the camera in the end because of the problem.

Thank you for confirming that I'm not going nuts!! The camera is under warranty so I will see if Fuji can help.

Hi I have an XPro3 which seems to be suffering some shutter release issues. I have noticed that the shutter release needs quite a hard press to activate and very hesitant to fire. On other occasions it is soft to release as normal and occasionally the shutter is released twice. The shutter release is not set to multi. Has anyone else experienced these issues? If you have, were you able to fix it? Or is it a n issue that needs it to be returned to Fuji to sort out? I will be grateful for any replies and help on this annoying issue. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your advice Rolf. All sorted now !

I have just purchased a 35mm f2 from a respectable company for my XT 1. When the lens is on the camera it makes a hunting noise constantly. It also appears to zoom in and out which is odd for a prime lens. It also the back screen seems to get brighter and darker without touching the camera at all. Any advice? Is it the camera or lens?
