Have seen max time in T mode for shutter speed listed as 15 mins and  60 mins in bulb mode.

how do I set a time longer than 30 seconds so I can work on my long exposure photography.

I've tried the app in bulb mode I cant get it to lock it just has a max of 30 seconds  or in T mode set it  longer than 30 seconds,

any help would be much appreciated.

thank you

If your lens is set to Aperture Priority  — the switch is moved to the A position for those that have it, or the menu choice is turned on for those that do not have it — the camera will only allow a maximum shutter speed of 30 seconds in any of the T or B settings. Turn off Aperture Priority and you can use bulb settings that go much longer.

The bad news is in T shutter speed mode, the maximum is still going to be 30 seconds. You can get an intervalometer, connect it to your camera via the external release jack, set the camera shutter to B mode and use the intervalometer to give you the timed longer sequences, or use a remote release switch and a watch.

thank you for you speeding response.

i have ordered a remote to allow the b setting use a bit easier as you suggested. just a cheap one for now. 

would be great if i could get the b mode to work in the app it functions only at 30 seconds same a t mode no hold or lock function as I can see so its the remote for me.

thank you for your help.😀

      pocket wizard and XT5?

      By LBAbrams · Posted

      Has anyone successfully used pocket wizards with an XT5? I cannot get it to fire.  Do Fujis and pocket wizards get along? Thanks in advance for your wisdom on this, kind readers!

      Grzegorz, Go to the Networking Setting in your camera menu (the last one at the bottom - unless you have a My Menu then that is the last one). There, go to Network Setting and choose the SSID (name) of your WiFi network, type in the password, choose "SET". If you have a functioning DHCP server on your network, the camera should get its IP address (and Subnet_Mask and Gateway). If not, you can enter these manually. It is a little tricky, there will be some zeros already here, move the cursor after the zero and use DEL to delete it and make space in the input fields for your own correct values. If you do not know what to enter, have a look at values in the network settings of your computer and use the same except for the IP address, try some fairly higher number, hopefully you hit an unused one. Usually the values would be something like IP: 192.168.1.188, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway IP: 192.168.1.1  or something like that, take clues from your computer. The camera and computer must be on the same network. Then in Connection Mode on the camera, choose Wireless Tethering Fixed. And half-press the shutter to exit the menu and get in shooting mode. The red LED should be blinking. If you can look at your network devices, e.g. on your router, you should see the camera there. You can see check the camera settings in the camera menu in the INFORMATION item of the Network Setting menu to see the MAC address of your camera and look for it in the list of devices on your network.  Then use the tethering in your software, e.g. in Capture One. The camera may not show immediately, take a shot and then it should show in the list of available cameras. Good luck. Report back how did you fare.  PS If you have a Windows machine, you need to have Bonjour installed and running. Macs have it.

      X-T30 II Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display viewmode not working

      By grizzski · Posted

      Hey all, I just got my first camera. The X-T30 II. It seems the Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display view-mode is doing the exact same thing as just the Eye Sensor view-mode setting. Any ideas why this is or what's supposed to be happening? Firmware Version: 2.04

      Problem with multi exposure on XT5

      By George_P · Posted

      What GordW said. You have to put the drive mode dial to "S" - Single Frame. If you have it on CL, CH, BKT or Panorama (or HDR), the Multiple Exposure option will be greyed out in the shootng menu. On my X-T5 it works in RAW + JPG and also in JPG only. When Multiple Exposure is switched on, the image quality cannot be set to RAW only. If it was set to RAW only before switching Multiple Exposure On, image quality defaults to RAW+Fine. The result is JPG. After each shot press MENU/OK and after the last one press DISP/BACK.
