YOUTA

I wholeheartedly agree, I definitely need tethered shooting. I invested in this camera and would like to have the ability to automate astrophotography shots.

I know exactly how much bit depth my camera has. If you actually read my last reply you will see that I quoted 14 bits for raw. When processing raw you can take full advantage of this input. The formats you are talking about are output formats that are produced either in the camera or by post processing software from the 12, or usually now, 14 bits from the A to D converter. As things stand at the moment jpeg xl seems to me to be the best bet for stills, although I could be wrong. We will have to wait and see. As I said, video may be a different  matter.

+1, I really want to see 10 bits images.

Hoping to see Fujifilm support shooting in HEIF / HEIC image format or introduce a ability to export in HEIF / HEIC image format in "Fujifilm x raw studio software" . canon has implemented shooting in HEIF / HEIC format with 1dx mark 3 , so even though they did it first , i hope to see Fujifilm implement it as soon as possible ,because of the advantages of that image format over jpg . it's not difficult to implement actually ,since it's the still version of HEVC ,same way jpg is like a still version of H.264 .  the major advantage of using HEIF / HEIC format is the images has more bit depth ,jpg only has 8 bit color meanwhile HEIF / HEIC format can support up to 16 bit color which is like having the color range of RAW file . the next big advantage is the size ,a 10mb HEIF / HEIC file has better quality ,color depth ,details etc... also less artifacts , than a 20MB jpg file ,both jpg and HEIF exported from the same raw file . also if this image format is implemented in-camera like canon 1dx mark 3 , that means you can shoot twice the amount of picture with the same buffer size compared to jpg  ( x pro-3 79 frames jpg only, xt-30 79 frames jpg only , xs-10 81 frames jpg only ) if the HEIF format is used (x pro-3 158 frames heic only , xt-30 158 frames heic only , xs-10  162 frames heic only ) with current buffer size itself we can capture twice the number of images at the max burst speed of the camera .also HEIF / HEIC format is actually better optimized for burst shooting mode ,so you will more likely get the max burst speed of a camera in all real world situations. so i hope that i mentioned the basic reason why we need Fujifilm to implement HEIF / HEIC format in-camera or at least in "Fujifilm x raw studio" as early as possible . please share this topic ,support , and send feedback to FUJIFILM to implement this image format in the Fujifilm devices and software's . i really hope that everyone will support this matter ,which will benefit everyone who uses Fujifilm devices , to a great extent . also if anyone is concerned about the compatibility of HEIF / HEIC formats (there is a lot of articles in internet saying there is compatibility issues or can't open in windows etc.. But that's actually past issues) . the current situation is it's fully compatible in windows starting with windows 10 ,it's natively supported in mac os and ios 11 and above , also natively supported in android , also you can edit HEIF / HEIC files in adobe software's , luminar , capture one etc. so i am hoping everyone who use Fujifilm devices , to follow up this matter till it's implemented , have a great day ahead ! 

I’d just like to add my voice to that of other X-T30 owners who would appreciate the ability to tether this body. 

I moved from the Pentax stable and although I did examine the specifications of various fujifilm models, this didn’t include checking connectivity – perhaps naively, I just assumed that all modern cameras could tether…



I have been checking firmware updates and forums for any news on this for some time. The x webcam functionality is tantalising but more frustrating than useful, because it shows how close we are to a proper solution.
It seems to me that whilst there are a few users posting about this lack of functionality, there are probably many others like me, who just wait in the hope that it will arrive some day.

 

After digging through the manual, I found this happens when the compression type is set to All-Intra with the 4K frame size. Whether or not this also occurs when Long-GOP compression, the manual does not say.
Do you have a way to read the exif information from the movie file?

I searched for your issue in other forums and few had it and they said it's after the latest firmware version etc... And they said this.  "when choosing movie compression Long GOP only show this message, otherwise if choosing all-intra it will not show the message" . So i hope this helps !.. i'm youta, not k . Have a nice day !. [Also if you don't have HDMI 2.0 you won't be able to record 4k60 , so check your cable too , HDMI 1.4 can only support 4k30]

Ha! You beat me to it!!!!!

K,
I appreciate your assistance. I'm still having issue with getting the shutter speed warning to go away on the Fuji X-T3 Movie Mode menu. I have tried increasing the shutter speed, that had been 60, in the electronic menu and on the manual wheel on the top of the camera to 60, 120, 240. The message: “Cannot Use S.S. Slower Than Framerate” remains at the bottom of the Movie Mode menu. It will not go away unless I lower the resolution to FHD 16:9. Even at 4k 16:9 the the message reappears.
Is there a trick to changing Shutter Speed that I'm missing on the X-T3. Again the output is by HDMI to an Atomos Ninja V. I really need 59.94p DCI 17:9 (4096 x 2160) 400Mbps with ALL-I in order to produce competitive B-Roll slow motion macro clips. I can't compromise on this level of output quality.
Thank you,
Terrence
