Haven't been able to find a video or anything actually demonstrating the auto image transfer feature to the app, either while taking photos or when you turn the camera off and it does it in the background. Can anyone verify that this feature works well? Do the images just hang out in the app and you then have to save them directly to your phone or will they just show up in your phones photo gallery?

 

Thanks in advance - this is kind of the make or break feature keeping me from going with the x100v vs saving some money on an older model that just has the standard wifi transfer.

I use this feature all the time. 

I can turn the auto sync on and off with one of the custom buttons. (long hold on the front leaver for me) It let's me select the destination, or no destination if I don't want it to sync. At the end of the day, or shooting, I select the device I want to send the photos to. Open the app on that device, and turn off the camera. It will then automatically transfer all the new photos to my device. 

 

It works great. I've got it synced up to my google photo account, so it does from my tablet, to the cloud, and I can view them on my phone, or can be automatically added to a shared album. 

 

I'm very happy with my purchase.

Do you send the full res jpegs or the 3mp phone sized ones? I'm realizing I get inconsistent results still with that finding and the only way I can get it to work smooth and consistently is to send only the small phone sized versions.

      Fuji 100s & the new xApp

      By Greybeard · Posted

      Thats an interesting question - there appear to be two different remote access interfaces to the camera : Bluetooth/Wi-Fi and USB - the USB interface does have a way of accessing a shutter count - I haven't seen any report that its available via Bluetooth/WiFi.

      Jerry. We're really travelling in circles here (please refer to my original post). I know what tethering is and how to use it. I use the TL Plus View to trigger a Zeapon system for Time Lapse and the two together work perfectly fine. However, it would be nice to work occasionally without this rig and simply use the Fuji app. The workaround you're describing is unworkable for any serious Day to Night timelapse as, apart from anything else (such as camera touching and therefore unwanted movement) you are constantly looking in the rear view mirror as to what it is you're metering, not to mention that the space between intervals would have to be unusably long. (sigh) All Im asking is that the app displays the exposure when using ANY intervalometer. There may be no serious workaround, but I thank you for your thoughts.

      Nope the exposure indicator meter only shows when using an external intervalometer, it does not show when using the internal one or when using the app. The work around is time limited, a variation of what I have described above, tethering the camera or grab an image using the app. Open the image in Raw Studio or an editor and look at the histogram, etc, You will see if it is over/under exposed. Tethering or connecting via usb to grab the image is fastest, the remote app is okay. If clouds are rolling in, it can be tricky at first. studio shooters use tethering a lot.

      Even Fuji Australia seem to see this as an oversight.   The reason Im posting here is in the unlikely event that someone has a functional workaround...hopefully one that doesn't involve physically touching the camera...which is the entire point of the app so far as Im concerned.
