Post Firmware & Menu Reset... Can't get the camera out of FULL AUTO


Recommended Posts

I'm in the middle of a gig... and I reset the menu that fixed the camera so that WHITE BALANCE settings would work. (Before, it was in some sort of AUTO mode - after the menu RESET, looks and WB changes worked as expected.)

After the firmware upgrade AND menu RESET.... no matter what I do, I can't get the ISO and Aperture to respond to manual settings. They're on full auto.

Lens is not on AUTO. Can't find ANYTHING and I'm desperate. Help?

In the middle of USING this camera for 3 days... so it's strange timing/process in addressing/researching.

No matter what I select - it doesn't change anything.

I've shot films with this camera. I've had it since 2018 and used it extensively. Of course, I configured it, personalized it and haven't really had to think about how the thing works since it always has done exactly what I expected and wanted. It wasn't until this FIRMWARE upgrade and MENU RESET. I have no idea which had the impact since I did them at the same time.... and didn't realize the problem until I was in the middle of a live event.

The RESET got the WHITE BALANCE control back... which had all of a sudden quit responding. There was no upgrade or change that I'm aware of that created that problem.... but the fix for that (the WB is responding correctly now, when it wasn't) created a worse problem.

HOW does one turn on AUTO-ISO if it's not on "A" on the dial?

THX.

HEY.... I found it. I have no idea what this setting was/is supposed to do. I'll go look it up in the manual at some point, but here's the answer.

On the 5th page of the MOVIE settings, MOVIE SILENT CONTROL as ON. As soon as I changed that to OFF, everything came back... full control as I would expect.

What is THAT about?!?!?

Thx.

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • 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  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
