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.

you should return and replace from amazon , how long since you bought the camera ?

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

      LUT doesn't works on resolve

      By Don Barar · Posted

      Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don

      Please save me from insanity 23mm f2 vs F1.4r

      Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!

      I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !

      First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
