Loving the power of an X-T4 and an X-T5

Thanks for your reply! Third party item was actually a Syrp Genie Mini II plugged into 2.5mm port. So 2x RR-100 and 1x Syrp. None worked on three X-T5. The two RR-100 units work on the X-T4. i was hoping this was a setting I’ve somehow bumped on the X-T5 (wouldn’t be the first time) but thinking you’re right about a return to Fuji. I’ve done a full reset and still have the problem

Hello I am a Fuji X-T5 and X-T4 user, and a former X-T3 user... I have been using a RR-100 remote release on both cameras for sometime, but just recently the X-T5 has stopped triggering the shutter when the button is pressed. I get the light coming on on the camera back, and autofocus will happen, but no shutter release. This happens with two separate RR-100 units, and also the shutter will not trigger with third party items . Is there a setting somewhere that I can't find, or is this a return to Fuji scenario for a checkup? Cheers Des

The 16-55 is a great lens, very sharp and the weather sealing is awesome. I really like it. As a landscape photographer, I find it heavy. If I were buying now, I'd take a solid look at the 16-80 f4, which has both OIS and is WR. The 16-55 is great, and if you need the fixed aperture speed, you can't go wrong.

Greeting from Australia I am a long time photographer, new to Fuji with recent purchase of an X-T3. I actually started in underwater photography with a Nikonos V, a Nikon F80 film cameras in the 90's, before transitioning to the Nikon D100 and D200 based systems. I then transitioned to MFT mirrorless in 2013, using Panasonic Lumix GX7, GX9 and G9 bodies. These days my photography is broader adventure, landscape and travel based. My philosophy is to change cameras only when I have hit the limits of a system, and I have found a limit in terms of low light (particularly astro) photography. I know many would say I should have gone all the way to full frame, but in my reading, tests and discussions, the Fuji system seem to balance great image quality and carry ability. And they seem fun to use, which is important. So here I am. Look forward to future conversations. Cheers Des
