Have you tried removing the add-on shutter button?

Thanks for your reply and feedback, yes you can see in 1:18 of the video I test it without the add-on ;) 
This button is driving me mad, it's such a small thing, literally just a few mm of travel distance, but it feels wrong.

I Just got a Fuji X-T3 from Amazon Warehouse deals, and the button feels off... 
I used a X-T1 and have a X-t2 and they both feel very different to the X-T3.
I made a video to ask if this is how the X-T3 works or if I got a "faulty" unit. 

 

 

it's defective piece . i suggest you to return and replace the camera !. hope this helps !. have a nice day ahead !

I've been wondering the same thing. I purchased an X-T3 a couple of months ago and have the same issue. It doesn't feel normal to me.  I also have an X-T20 which does not do that.

I brought up this issue to amazon, and showed them this video, they offered a 10% refund... for a camera that costs around $1000 that is a lot, but not nearly enough to fix the problem by Fuji, as they would charge $200-$400 for the fix. 

p.s. amazon said that I'll be able to return the camera as defective at any time, should I decide that the problem is unbearable. 

Don't know if this helps but yeah, Amazon's 2 year guarantee seems to have worked for me.

Hey, I have just bought an "excellent" condition XT3 from MPB in the UK. I went out for my first shoot with it as soon as i unboxed it and something just felt off. I have the exact same problem as yourself. Did you get it repaired or did you return the unit? im unsure of what to do

      XS10 and manual lenses

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      All three of my bodies (X-E2, X-T4, GFX100S II) have shoot without lenses enabled and they have all had it set since I bought them.  No harm in it at all. Just remember to set the focal length when you fit a manual lens with no electronics otherwise the IBIS (if you have it) goes nuts. I regularly use vintage film lenses from Minolta, Zeiss, Mamiya, Rollei and others on my X mounts along with more modern manual focus stuff from TTArtisans. I also use Nikon AF-S lenses with a Fringer so the world is your oyster! Vintage lenses can be an absolute bargain too - For example the Zeiss 135 f/35 in M42 is as cheap as chips and very sharp as is the excellent Minolta 35-70 Macro (which is also rebadged Leica).

      Infrared Photography on X-E2 665nm

      By Neil Rosenberg · Posted

      I'm not exaggerating when I say that I have searched with great vigor (and at great expense) for a way to capture IR images with a Fujifilm camera for which I didn't have to use major amounts of sharpening to bring out the best. Zooms, primes, Fuji, Tamron, Viltrox, Sigma, Zeiss ... probably 20 lenses all told. Plus multiple IR converted Fuji cameras, X-T1, X-T3, X-T5. I even tried different ways of filtering IR, such as using the Kolari clip-ins and lens-mounted front filters. I was ready to give up until I almost accidentally tried one of the cheapest lenses out there -- the little TTArtisan 27mm F2.8. No hotspots that I could see, and best of all ABSOLUTELY SUPERB SHARPNESS across the entire frame. It's this attribute that I search for, and until now, never achieved. In my prior attempts, I listened to the advice from the "pundits", picking up a copy of the venerable Fuji 14mm F2.8, the Zeiss Touitt 12mm F2.8, Fuji 23 and 35mm F2.0, even the very similar 7Artisans 27mm F2.8, and none of them come even close to the TTArtisan for edge sharpness in infrared. Incidentally, I'm using a Kolari 720nm clip-in filter. Sure the TT has its issues -- vignetting at 2.8, tendency to flare with sunlight nearby, but all in all, this lens is glued to my X-T5 for now. This image was taken hand-held with this lens -- completely unedited!

      Screen is flipped with fan001

      By Tschortschli · Posted

      Hy there When Im using the fan001 on the XH2s and I flip the LCD Screen vertically by 180 degrees then the image flips vertically, what is good but it also flips horizontally. The clean feed on HDMI is not flipping horizontally but its also flipping if the HDMI output info display is on. When I unmount the fan then the image flips only vertically. My firmware is updated to the latest version. Any ideas if there is a fix for that?

      Infrared

      In reply to the original question, it all depends on what you mean by infrared.  If you mean "see thermal information", then I agree with the comments here.  However, if you mean near-infrared, the X-T4, or basically any digital camera can be modified to "see" it.  Check out Lifepixel.com and Kolarivision.com for more info. As regards lenses, I'm not exaggerating when I say that I have searched with great vigor (and at great expense) for a way to capture IR images with a Fujifilm camera for which I didn't have to use major amounts of sharpening to bring out the best.
