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.

      Hello from Iowa

      By FrankWeiser · Posted

      I own the Fuji X-T1 and X-H1. I own several Fuji lenses but I tend to use 3rd party vintage manual glass which I find quite enjoyable to use. I'm testing a photo here taken from my Flickr account that showcases the Tokina 100-300mm Zoom lens with 1.4 extender.

      CANNOT BACKUP OR RESTORE X-T4 SETTINGS WITH FUJI X ACQUIRE

      By Astigmatism · Posted

      Forgot to mention another thing. Mine does not work if I plug the USB cord into a USB hub. It only works if I plug the cord into one of the USB ports on my computer itself (an iMac). This surprises me because I think there's a hub built into the computer itself, which is how the computer has multiple USB ports in the first place. I think it was somebody here that suggested I try that -- sorry I don't remember who!

      xPro1 can't change aperture with fujinon 27mm

      On another forum someone suggested spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the wheel but the Fuji tech said that could risk frying the rest of the cameras electrical so I haven't tried that.

      Potential bug in X100VI - C mode, screen going very dark

      By sfainbraun · Posted

      I have an x100VI with 1.01 firmware - did a reset already and didnt solve issue I am about to describe. Can you all see if your camera does this: Switch to C mode, step down to f16 and then press shutter half way. Does your screen go dark? I have tried playing will all settings (have had the following so quite familiar with the menus: x100, x100f, XT-2, X-Pro 2, XT-3) , only happens in C mode. If you find this can you report to Fuji @ digitalinfo@fujifilm.com. They told me they had not seen this before and that it was normal behavior because the shutter is closing, but the shutter closes in S mode as well.

      Focus error issues when using VU filter

      By Olaf W. · Posted

      That’s a common problem with many cameras, filters irritating the autofocus.
