    Abonhamc, that was brilliant. I will try your suggestions tomorrow and report back. Thank you for taking the time to help! Best regards.

    On my XPRO2, the EVF seems washed out compared to the LCD display and neither matches my calibrated monitor. Any suggestions on how I might optimize the displays to match? Thanks!

    Well, matters resolved. It was me screwing up on the Cactus V6 trigger setup. I reset and did the setup over and everything is working well at 1/250! Thanks for all your help.

    It's probably user error on my part. I suspect that I don't have it set up properly, either the camera or the flash system. The fastest sync so far is 1/200, but not the published 1/250.

    I have the XPRO-2 set at mechanical shutter.

    I'm not able to sync at 1/250 with my Fuji XPRO-2. No darkened bottoms at 1/125 however. I'm not sure I have things set up properly. Thanks for your help!

    My XF50-140 seem to be miss-focusing more than usual. Could that be as a result of when I recently updated the lens with firmware 1.21, I forgot to take off the 1.4 converte?. The info says I updated successfully, so perhaps it's another issue. Thanks for your help

    Excellent review. Thanks for the thorough testing and conclusions. I am confident that Fuji will come up with a satisfactory solution, hopefully via firmware. Thanks, EyesUnclouded !

    Deva: Summer is around the bend. It's low 90's in the desert and so far the X-Pro2 doesn't get too warm. When it hits 110, we'll see how the camera holds up. Cameras that have passed the test in the past are 3-4 Nikon DLRS, Fuji X-T1 and Fuji X100-T.

    The Cactus trigger/receiver works great and Cactus speed lights have built-in receivers.

    Let us know how that works out nathan.mardin. I will give it a shot as well. Thanks.

    Sounds like most of us prefer the color rendering of the LCD to the EVF, but which is the most accurate? Compare the EVF, OVF and LCD and determine which is closest to our calibrated monitor for on-the-spot color accuracy. Whatever option you choose will never perfectly match your calibrated monitors, but it's at least as close as we can get at this point.

    I've borrowed two other X-Pro2's and they both exhibit the same warming tendencies, so for now I'm accepting the warming as being normal. Quoting Rico Pfirstinger, "As long as there's no overheating warning, there's no problem."

    "Nonetheless Fuji! That does not mean your customers should have to live with this. Perhaps optimize the CPU to not get as well or whatever is causing the warmth." – Aswald Agreed!

    Thanks for the input Vince. I'm starting to think this might be normal, but I'll keep testing and keeping my eye on the situation. Fuji indicates it's normal, but has no explanation as to why it is so. None of the past X-series cameras have that issue. Nor did my Nikon DSLRs. Because of the initial bugs and quirkiness of the X-PRO 2, my confidence level is not what it should be. Love the camera none-the-less!
