X-T4 power adapter and plug adapter

Hello - I just received my new X-T4 camera and dual battery charger, USB-C cable and, most importantly for this post, the AC adapter and plug adapter. The plug adapter supplied does not fit properly into the AC power adapter, (the plug adapter being about 1/2" taller than AC power adapter), meaning the back of the prongs on the plug do not make contact with the metal contacts on the AC power adapter - thus, no current can flow.  Has anyone else encountered this problem? I've been in touch with both the New York-based camera seller and Fuji, and am awaiting a response. Are there any other suggestions for how to use the Fuji dual battery charger I purchased?  While I can (slowly) charge via the computer, I currently have no way to use the AC power adapter supplied with the camera, since the separate plug adapter they sent does not fit. Does anyone have an alternative suggestion for third party battery chargers for the X-T4 batteries? Thanks.

Does the Fuji charger use the same adapter as the direct usb camera charge?

I use this charger : hahnel twin charger which I like very much. It is modular and came with different inserts for Fuji and AA type batteries. It charges faster than direct usb to camera.

Good luck!

Thanks for your reply, mrPeter. That product looks like a very clever solution to charging two of the X-T4 batteries at the same time, and really useful on the go. Thanks for the tip. I may just return my new Fuji dual charger and go with this alternative instead.

Just out of curiosity, to the X-t4 owners out there: Can anyone who owns the power supply and plug adapter packaged with the camera please post a photo of the plug adapter inserted into the AC power supply, so I can compare what I was sent with what actually works and should have been sent to me? It would be very helpful, if anyone with the Fuji-supplied power adapter and plug adapter could post a photo of what they received in the X-T4 box. Thanks.

Thanks so much, Chas. The photos are clear and it's easy to see how differently your plug adapter fits compared to what I was sent, despite the UK v US difference.  I really appreciate your time taking and posting the photos of them for me.

I found an image (left) of the plug adapter I should have received. It is notched along the edges and has slots which protrude from the sides, and is only the size in height of the AC power supply. I've also attached images (right 3)of what I actually received, which is bigger in height than the power adapter and is not shaped at all the same along the edges.  So frustrating to not be able to use my dual battery charger purchased with the camera. Thanks to all for your help with this.  Here's hoping Fujifilm.com is working on my request for the correct parts.

      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!

      Transfer X-T5 for PC wi fi...

      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.
