Some information about myself, relating to Fuji X Film cameras, and Particularly my experience with the XPro line of cameras. Bought the X100 when first launched, was a great camera at the time Purchased the Xpro 1, and Pro 2 cameras . Both served me well. I actually had dropped the Xpro 2 number times, once in a river in a badly sealed waterbag(my fault), The camera was thought to be a write off, But a Camera Repair Tech, took it apart and its still going. I looked forward XPRO 3, AND SAVED UP FOR IT. HOWEVER, its been much more temperamental, and my user experience so far has been with mixed feelings A while ago I started having shutter lag issues, I v been really frustrated by this, it render the camera unsuitable for the way its supposed to be used. I v tried finding answers, but nothing has solved the problem. It set to release priority, and I v disabled the Bluetooth(according to the bit of reading I found, these were apparently things mentioned, that may solve the problem, It hasn't. Another person mentioned something to do with the shutter button it self being the culprit? I m about to advertise my unit. Most frustrating, and utter disappointment with this camera. I hate gimmicky stuff that doesn't do, what its advertised to do. I really wanted to love this camera. But I fear its made me have serious doubts abut Fuji, and if I want to continue with the brand I m trying one more time, seeing if there is any forthcoming advice, or insights? Would appreciate it All the Best JSW

Good day to all I v now owned multiple Fuji X cameras. I v travelled to remote areas in Africa since May21. The FujiXpro 2, and XT 3 accompanied me on the last years travel. I have added the Xpro 3 to the bag. I have been using the App(that was downloaded), and though convoluted in its operation, I v mostly managed to make it work. Granted my general knowledge around the digital era, is not as good as the younger generation, But I use MacBook Pro Photoshop/Lightroom, and have basically done what most serious photographers have done, or managed OK with most of the technology. I recently have had repeated problems with the XT 3, whilst trying to shoot via Live View using the App. It takes two photos, and on the third attempt, it freezes up. camera blinks(orange/green light), and the screen goes dark. I tried leaving the camera alone(didnt respond when i tried switching it off, via the normal way, so I left it on for ten minutes, to see if it would eventually finish uploading/processing , or sorting itself out, but the only way to make the camera regain consciousness, seem to be to remove the battery, reinsert, and start over. Only for the whole thing to repeat it self The latest firmware updates I performed about a week ago. I believe the version is 4.30 for the XT 3 Any ideas from any one, I m frustrated, to the point where I wonder if I should consider selling the Fuji gear, and moving back to something else i used before? The Fuji App, and cameras certainly do not make it easy, very convoluted system
