Hi everyone,

Just wanted to see if you had any suggestions for using the fuji webcam feature to stream but also keep the battery from losing charge? 

I reckon I get about 45 mins at the most before the battery dies on my x-t2 while plugged into usb.

The only suggestion that I've seen is possibly trying to get the grip and use the external charger on that.

Any help would be appreciated

Hi Emma,

I used a 'fake battery' with great success to stream in 4K through Zoom using my X-T20. This is the product: 

https://www.amazon.com/Gonine-Replacement-Fujifilm-NP-W126S-Battery，/dp/B089Y9ZKSZ/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=fuji+fake+battery&qid=1627434637&sr=8-5

There is a small 'opening' in the battery door of the camera. When you plug in the fake battery, you slide the power connector through that opening and connect it to the power adapter. Works well and does not limit the camera's use with a tripod.

Hope this helps!

      gimbals (& threads getting spammed)

      By jshire · Posted

      Hi, I'm researching a gimbal to get someone as a present & they use a Fuji XS-10. I did a quick search of previous threads on gimbals but all of them seem to either get no replies or spammed by a link to an Amazon list. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who've actually used specific gimbals with the XS-10. I'm aware that some, such as certain models from Zhiyun, DJI & FeiyuTech either don't say that they are fully compatible with the XS-10 but other sites say they do work ok but some functions don't. It's quite difficult to work out which functions work & which don't. Thanks.

      A portrait with a 28mm lens

      By DavidJohn · Posted

      This was snapped during a lunch.  Total shooting time—a few seconds. We so often read that a proper "portrait" should be snapped with a longer than normal lens, a low ISO to get lots of detail, and have a soft light held up above the head, and slightly to the side. The key, in my opinion, is always carry a camera.  Have your camera available to capture candid, authentic photographs.  Available light, no posing.   This portrait used 2000 ISO, the lens wide open at f4, and 1/100 sec. to stop any movement.  I didn't even take time to compose—I just snapped.  I leave the "Face Detection" on unless I'm photographing a landscape or subject other than a person. The GFX100RF has the equivalent of a 28mm lens.  The large sensor renders fine detail even at fairly high ISO ratings.  And the drawing of the lens is just perfect in my opinion.  It was set to B & W, with slightly reduced sharpness and clarity (set in-camera).  Ideal for "portraits."  Now, for some subjects I will likely increase the sharpness and clarity to the normal setting.  The camera is new, and I'm still experimenting with it.
