Hi dear community, 

 

I have brought my XS10 recently and very new to fuji world, I realise the eyecup on the camera is not comfortable for someone like me with specs, is there any eyecup made for this model which I could buy?

 

 

Thank you

check in this forum to see suggestions

Hey there!  I did a bunch of research on this and the best one I could find was this one: https://tekiac.myshopify.com/products/x-cup-pro-for-fuji-x-s10-x-t10-x-t20-x-t30

 

This is extremely well designed and does not interfere at all with the screen. Ended up ordering a second one for my sister's X-S10. Really makes the camera feel and look more premium plus covers that hot shoe.

Hello,

 

I am soon buying a X-S10 which pleases me a lot after testing it (it will be my first Fuji camera after years shooting with a Canon 5DM3).

The only point is i won't get used to its eye cup.

I just checked the Tekiac website. They no longer sell their nice eye cup.

Do you know if there is an alternative?

thanks

The view finder of the X-S10 is identical to the one on X-T30, so I got this one https://www.amazon.com/Kiwifotos-KE-XT20-Eyepiece-Viewfinder-Eyeglass/dp/B07QMKCVXH believing it would fit, but it does not fit 100% and it blocks the screen a bit. Forced into an angle it is OK. I really liked the previous version, which was softer, also meant for the X-T30 and with better fit, but the silicon ring ripped after some time. Thats why I bought it again, but the design had changed.

Hi,

I wear glasses and wanted a better eyecup. In the end I bought https://www.amazon.com.au/Silicon-Camera-Eyepiece-Fujifilm-Installation/dp/B08W2CHGGY (Soft Silicon Camera Extend Eyecup Eyepiece for Fuji Fujifilm X-S10 XS10 X-T200 XT200 Camera, Hot Shoe Mount Installation).

However, I did not like the rubber as it got in the way of the LCD panel. It is simple to remove it, and, in the end, I just glued another rubber o-ring onto the eyecup and trimmed it slightly to at the bottom, so the screen opens perfectly.

I experimented with rubber cups styles from other cameras but could not get one that I liked and fitted. 

Cheers

do you think it is possible to have a long eyecup instead of this big big round eyecup ?

    • Would using an external charger be of benefit to the batteries life? I appreace it can be faster, but I doin't mind pluging in the camera over USB to charge. Does charging via the camera do as good a job as lets say the fuji's own external charger? Does the camera stop charging once the battry is full and not over charge? I couldn't find these deatails in these forums or in the manual. Thank you!   Image below shot on X-T2 in a sunny studio.

    • It is really easy to find out if the wifi is on. Your computer or tablet or cell phone will have a network settings dealing with wifi, bluetooth, ethernet or “other”. Open that up and go into the section for wifi, and take note of which networks are listed. Turn on the camera and keep watching the list of networks. If your camera’s wifi is turned on, a new network should suddenly show up in your computer/tablet/phone’s network listings. Now go into the camera’s menus and start a wireless connection (the x-app or camera remote app can help you with this). You should see a network show up now. It is not hidden because it has to be visible so that your computer/tablet/phone can join the camera’s network to transfer images. Turn the camera off and that network should disappear. Turn the camera back on and see what happens.

    • I think my Fuji 150-600 F8 is a brilliant wildlife lens in terms of sharpness, portability and value but the small aperture does cause issues at the start and end of the day - even pushing the ISO as far as I dare, I can see shutter speed down to 1/25s - stabilisation isn't an issue but asking a deer to stand still for that is too much! In the same situation, an F4 would give 1/100s so the difference to the success rate would be phenomenal... and that's without the other improvements like shallower depth of field. I also find that the Fuji's subject detect AF gets pretty iffy in low light - I keep updating to the latest firmware but it doesn't seem to get any better. I was originally looking at the Nikon 500mm F4 E but good examples secondhand are still reasonably expensive but like-for-like Sigma lenses are around half the price. Reviews I have read suggest that they are as good optically, AF performance and IS-wise but you gain a few hundred grams of weight (but less than the older Nikon model). For a couple of grand, I can live with that. Does anyone have any experience mounting one on an XH2S? What about with the 1.4 teleconverter? It feels like that is pushing it anyway - hefty lens + TC + Fringer all sounds a bit...wobbly? It is on the Fringer approved list but I am wary about AF speed in particular. I had also considered looking for a used Nikon 400mm F2.8, which would be even faster (and heavier) and could couple with a TC to give 560mm F4 but again, it is that lens+TC+Fringer combination that worries me as being just too many links in the chain. Of course, what I really want is a native Fuji prime but that doesn't seem to be on the horizon - and if you look at what Nikon and Sony are doing, if Fuji do ever bring out a 500mm prime, it will probably be a small, light and cheapish F5.6, which is only 2/3 stop better than my zoom at the same focal length. Any thoughts anyone?
    • The Amazon link is an annoying feature of this forum - its automatic and is applied to every post for advertising purposes. My question was - how do you know the camera wi-fi is on and requires turning off? I would have thought this would just use up the battery for no purpose if you aren't specifically using a function that requires wi-fi.
