Hi I'm returning to my XT1 after a gap and have just updated the firmware. When I raise the camera to use it and move it around, before touching the shutter button, I can hear an annoying clicking sound as if it was hunting to focus. However I do not have the settings on continuous focus, and in any case it seems to be responding to changes in light rather than distance. I honestly can't remember if it did it in the past! Hopefully I'm missing something really obvious in the exposure settings? (It happens with different lenses.)

It sounds like your aperture might be changing based on the camera's metering. Are you in an auto-aperture setting on the lens?
