  1. I’m not sure I get any sense of intent just a description of how it works. On the basis that the X-T3, the X-Pro3, the X-100V (and probably others) have it whether by design or by upgrade it seems like an omission. Otherwise what’s the point of naming them? > ”Banks can be renamed using EDIT CUSTOM NAME.”
  2. On the X-T3 if you had a custom name for a specific film simulation (such as 'Chrome: Eggleston') it would appear in the Q menu. I can't remember if this was given to us in a firmware update. I'm now trying to make the same appear on the X-T4, but at the moment it just says SELECT CUSTOM SETTING. If anyone knows the secret, please let me know :)
  3. The converter simply converts to DNG with the Raw demosaicing. If you go into Lightroom, import the converted DNGs then you can apply the Velvia profile.
  4. Had an X-T1, then had an X-Pro2, but the clicking from the OVF/EVF got on my nerves, much happier now with the X-T2. It is just more my sort of camera, even though I rarely need improvements like the autofocus.
  5. $130 is the sort of price I was trying to avoid when I started the thread. I had a Chinese CNC machined L-bracket plus grip for my X-T1 (and bought a similar one for my son's X-T10) The quality of both is excellent and I have probably spent $50 (in GBP) on both of them. Maybe now the RRS grip is out the CNC machines will be firing up! :-O
  6. EVF, find the OVF a bit annoying for landscape, but that is only to be expected.
  7. I've not seen the need to go expensive with these as the third party ones I've tried are pretty good, but they would be second on the list after the Fuji one I guess
  8. Hiya - has anyone found a 3rd party L-Bracket (Arca Swiss) for the X-Pro 2. The Fuji one is £99 which is going to be 3-8x more expensive than the CNC machines of China, and so long as it fits well and is properly machined for the slots then it seems more sensible to go 3rd party.
  9. I have the Rokkor 50mm f1/4 - works fine, don't have a problem with the focus reach. I use a fairly basic adaptor. Could the one you have be the wrong size and so isn't giving full reach? Maybe the lens needs a service?
  10. How do you set up Multiple Exposures? Are there any indications if they are JPEG only? Can you take more than 2 images? Merci!
  11. Not having used Fujifilm Acros before I looked it up on the website "<snip> features the world's highest standard in grain quality among ISO 100 films." ​Yet the camera is 200 ISO at base level
  12. Has anyone tried putting the Detail slider high (70-100%) it has helped a lot of the images I have processed.
  13. Again, other manufacturers do it with no issues. It may be that X-Trans causes weirdness, but the choice would be nice. Also there are plenty of photographers who actually like getting the shot in camera with less or minimal Photoshop work. Try the work of Chris Friel or Valda Bailey.
  14. Except it has been done in Raw before, so there is unlikely to be a limitation,
  15. I loved his one where he compared Raw files from Fuji, Sony and Olympus, and just used Adobe Camera Raw for the processing and then got defensive when people pointed out that the Raw converter has an affect. Naturally he chose Olympus, cos he prefers Olympus. Then he kinda slagged off Zack Arias for being a fuji fanboy. I can see why some might get tetchy when real Fuji fanboys do act like the cameras are the second coming. But that is what the Internet does
  16. Hi Long time Canon DSLR user (2002-2014). Before that used Fuji compact uprights and Minolta film cameras. X-T1 user since late 2014, swapped all my gear. Main interests are Landscape, Nature, Abstract, Macro. Use the 18-55, 55-200, Zeiss Touit 50mm Macro, and an adapted Minolta 50mm f1/4 Rokkor and a Minolta Auto Bellows Lightroom Tester, but experimenting with Capture One and Irident Developer http://method.photo (needs a bit of adding to)
  17. The combined image as a Raw file (which other camera manufacturers manage so it isn't that outrageous a request). And it was also what the X-E1 did.
  18. I don't disagree, but it still seems odd to have gone from Raw to JPG output for a flagship model
  19. One of the frustrating things at the moment with the X-T1 is the Multiple Exposure feature. Great that it has it, but you can only use 2 images, it outputs as JPEG, and there is little control of the blending. It would be a great Kaizen feature for Firmware 5 to have: 1) up to 5 or 7 images (some manufacturers do 9) 2) Output as Raw 3) Blend control No idea how you submit features for consideration, but I have tried a few tweets. What is slightly frustrating is that the X-E1 had Raw output, but the flagship model doesn't. I guess too that this isn't restricted to the X-T1 as X-E2 owners would benefit.
  20. Hi - there is this! http://www.fujifilm.com/news/n150205_01.html
