X-S10 storing time between two images

I’ve a just bought an X-S 10 and I am surprised by the time the camera is busy between two images in still/single mode. During this time the viewer and the screen are blind with this message “storing”. 

My X-H1 use about half a second for “processing”. My X-S10 needs one to two seconds for “storing”. It’s absolutely too long. 

I shoot in raw, with SDHc cards (95Mbs/s) just formatted in the camera. Changing of card, still SDHC, change nothing. Camera firmware is updated and I use the A mode. 
In burst mode, there is no problem: The screen keep usefull and there is no “storing” time after 6 to 8 raw images in about 2sec. 
In my mind, the ram buffer should be used in any shooting mode, not only in burst mode.

Is it a usual phenomenon or a specific problem with this camera?

Hi Zababo
I have no solution regrettably but can agree with all your comments and frustration. Its not the Clarity setting, been there done that,  as you say I just use Burst mode to get round it, especially for Portraits or Street. I think you will find its also a lot faster when camera is set to Manual mode, so it must be something in the default Auto setting!!!

I'm brand new to the S-10 myself, still just trying to figure out how it works and the various settings/menus. I did notice this on my camera as well. Seems to only do it when the camera is set to "auto" and not the other modes. Has anyone figured this one out yet?

Solution is to set Clarity off to "0", but that only works in Manual mode. What abaout AUTO? Clarity is blocked, it can't be change and the camera is terribly slow.

Is it always slow? Is it only slow in Auto mode? Are there specific situations when it is slow?

What do you mean by "camera is terribly slow"? DO you mean when writing to the card? Does the light flash when it is slow?

What card do you have?

It is slow in manual mode when using "clarity" (it's ok) and randomly in AUTO mode (in AUTO the clarity option is grey, can't be change, no flash using) . Sometimes from the first shot, simetimes every few shots, sometimes several shots in a row. The screen is black and the message "storing" is displayed. This takes about 2 seconds. The light is then red. The card used is SAMSUNG Pro Plus SDXC 256GB (UHS-I / U3, V30).

The only ways I can get the camera to show the "storing" message while it writes is to set either Clarity or HDR - neither of which can be selected in full auto mode. Even a very slow card does not show that message. I'm out of ideas.

Perhaps you could post a link to a file when this occurs (straight out of camera) so that we can see all of your settings.

I have exactly the same behavior since the day I bough X-S10. Shooting on auto in bright condition (basically any sunny day) is very unpleasant because of this delay.

I didn't find any workaround. The only one is choosing "P" mode which is a bit less "auto" and doesn't have this problem.

I was very disappointment because X-S10 was marketed a bit for those that want to start photography and not for hardcore "only manual setting" users, yet the default experience with the simplest "auto" mode has this long delay after shooting a photo.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
