This review may be able to answer some questions: https://www.dpreview.com/news/3492623346/fujifilm-xf-18-120mm-f4-lm-pz-wr-lens-is-parfocal-weather-sealed-and-will-cost-just-899 The review seems oriented toward using the lens for video work. Note: If you are working outside of Europe, keep 1/60 in mind as a shutter speed. The line frequency is often 60 hz rather than 50hz.

Welcome to the forum. Usually in the screen setup part, there is a setting called “Preview exp../wb in manual mode”, try turning this off. It may also be called “Exposure Preview“, it still needs to be off. Some folks additionally also turn on Natural Live View, but as always, you mileage may vary. I cannot help you with your second question, sorry about that, perhaps someone down the road can? p.s. turn it back on when not using the flash, or set a function button to toggle it on/off.

Welcome to the forum. You can also check with your local camera repair store regarding their repair prices. The camera's settings are stored in a memory chip which needs a little bit of electricity to stay active. The capacitor supplies the needed current so you can remove the main battery without losing the settings. On occasion, capacitors deteriorate and stop working. This is a major problem in power supplies for other equipment where the caps reliability is highly debated. Usually they can be replaced and things go back to regular working conditions.

The foggy mist comes to cover and re-claim the ghost - ghouls, the goblins, the other fey folk until next season. Happy Halloween!

On a stroll with a pup...

I noticed some of what you are describing, but in my images, the difference seems more related to the body than the chosen simulation. Images from my X-T10 are slightly more yellow tinted than the ones from my X-T30 or X-T30 II (or the newer bodies have slightly more neutral auto white balances than the older one does if you want to think of it that way). I shoot raw and use Provis as the base simulation in all of the bodies because it is so neutral to start with, I can tell during a quick image playback if I have over-cooked an exposure.

Please forgive me for not being more specific… ”The DRIVE SETTING button gives you access to burst shooting, bracketing, single frame, Advanced Filters, and more. On the X-T3, Drive functions are set using the top-plate dial under the ISO settings dial.” https://www.fujifilm-x.com/en-us/quick-start-guides/quick-start-guide-fujifilm-x-t3/ HTH.

Is the top drive dial set to one of the advanced or similar settings? These settings are for jpeg only images, so the raw option would be disabled.

Wondering (wandering) around in the forests, one comes across many critters; deer, squirrels, birds, foxes, bobcats, trolls, twigs... all sorts of critters. But Remember The Tin Man. He too is out there, The Heart of the Forest: The Heart Of The Forest is currently roaming around The Bernheim Forest and Arboretum in Kentucky, USA. https://bernheim.org/tin-man/

Again locally, the colors are starting to pop on in... maybe take off down a back road or two to see them. Go early, you can get better seats for the show.

I do not have a copy of that body, so I am unable to verify how good these are, but if you are simply looking for a replacement for your current button, there are these: https://iwoodstore.com/products/cover-set-fuji-gfx100rf-gfx50-hotshoe-shutter-button-wood https://www.etsy.com/market/shutter_button_for_fujifilm_gfx100rf These sites have contact information pages, so the builders may be able to help you.
