Sorry, but I don't think Steve Huff has ever "had it".

So I traded my 3-year-old X-T1, battery grip and plate towards a new X-T2. Holy smokes. There is a steep learning curve, no doubt. I thought I knew my old camera, but this is a whole new different beast. I am struggling mostly with the video function. I believe the lenses I tried so far are too old, but the AF in video is painfully slow and often non-existent... But then again, I doubt I will do much filming anyway.
 
If you have any suggestions for a new X-T2 owner, please let me know. A new camera is always nice, but there are growing pains for sure until everything is set up just right... 

Absolutely and utterly RIDICULOUS. Where's the "pro" in that? They are really testing my patience. It's not like we said, "Fuji, you better release a tethering software!!" and then they're humming and hawing about it. THEY announced the software, and we're like, "GREAT! Shut up and take my money, Fuji!!" And then, nothing. For months. Ok, that's a lie. Let's say, a couple of false launches, which I think is somewhat worse.
 
I really don't get it. 

Oh! A flower macro thread...!
This image recently made it into the Chromecast background section. X-T1 plus 60 mm with 16mm extension tube. A lovely combination.

Maybe I'm the odd one out, but I actually prefer the bokeh on the left...
Either way, it's too large for my studio anyway.

So I wrote Fuji this morning asking for answered, and this is what I got back:
 
Dear Karina,   Thank you for your interest. At this time, the product that you're looking for is currently in development.

Btw, Antonius, tethered shooting is basically connecting your camera to your computer with a USB cable, and as you are shooting, your images appear on the monitor. So for studio photography this is an essential tool for you and your clients to know if what you wanted to achieve has been accomplished. It just speeds up the process of adjusting, selecting and correcting immensely.

Thanks Karinatwork, I don't know these things because I'm coming from Nikon, after 31 years, one day soon I will be a X-T1 newborn and shooting tethered which I think will be awesome.

So do I. But it's very VERY frustrating to say the least. Not sure why it takes them so long. But then, checking Forums and websites, nobody really seems to care.
