Hi guys,

I Just bought an x-t10 And first impressions are pretty good.

 

I Just noticed a strange noise/vibration when you switch from shooting mode to "play" mode (when you press the play botton to open the photos gallery and last pics taken).

 

It is a sort of internal vibration And It happens only when the camera is hold at certain position...

 

Is it normal? Or is it something that needs to be fixed?

 

Sorry if my question may seem stupid but i am not an expert!

 

 

Thank you!

Thanks for the replies.

I actually made a test and without lens there is no noise/vibration. So my next question is: in my proevious camera (sony nex with 18-55 kit lens) i never noticed anything like that, does it mean that the standard Fuji 16-50 lens is a little less quality? I also noticed that the camera does not have an automatic distortion correction, a thing that Sony had instead.

It's nothing more than just the aperture resetting itself to the default position. Why is there a worry because a moving mechanical piece is making noise ?

Also, the standard lens for the X series is actually the 18-55 F2.8-4, the XC 16-50 is made of the same quality glass but with plastic instead of metal. I didn't even knew they had a kit with the XC lens.

 

Long story short, don't worry about. The camera knows best what it has to do.

AFAIK, the X-T10 camera does have an automatic distortion correction for Fujifilm (Fujinon) XF and XC lenses.

Telling about XC 16-50mm - it's excellent lens, don't worry. Fuji just has a bit different logic of operations.

The optical+digital quality result from your XC 16-50mm should be superior to Sony 18-55 lens results, at least in JPEG.

 

You can judge yourself by looking at Photozone.de charts there:

XC 16-55mm

Sony 18-55mm

 

By pointing mouse over "Distortion" chart, you'll notice that 16-50 has dramatic level of optical distortion, but Fuji camera corrects that very well, so as a result border/corner sharpness and details will look much better on Fuji comparing to Sony. Fuji sells XC 16-50mm cheaper than XF 18-55 because they saved a bit on on metal and on aperture ring, however the glass inside is of excellent quality.

      Time Code Synch

      By DMJpix · Posted

      FYI Update - I just learned that the Zoom F6 & F3 recorder/mixers also synch to the UltraSynch Blue over bluetooth. I am planning to record 32bit float on the F6 and it will have frame accurate matching time-code with my two-XH2S' and one XH2.

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      Hopefully these will help some. For quite a while now Apple has put stuff into their operating system so that you cannot yourself open the connected camera’s card and see the images, you have to use their or third party software to do that.

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      Okay, just for completeness sake: 1.     The camera’s menu connection setting is USB CARD READER. 2.    The computer is turned on, booted and nicely operational. 3..    With the camera turned off, connect the camera to the computer using a known-to-be-good USB C data plus power cable (a data only cable should work as well, a power only cable will not work). 3.   The camera’s charging light may turn on. Turn the camera on. The back screen probably will show the USB symbol as well as the USB letters. 4.    Start up the Image Capture app and see if the camera’s name appears in the devices list. 5.    In the Apple menu, select ‘About This Mac’, click on the ‘More Info…’ button, and on the right hand side of the window that opens, at its bottom is a button called ‘System Report…’, click on it. A new window should open, the left hand side has collapsible dropdown listings, the first is called “Hardware’, within it is the USB listing, select that. The right side pane should give you listings of all the USB devices connected at that moment, one of them should say something like USB PTP Camera. Does either 4. or 5. work?

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      Thanks, Yes I knew about the USB issue in newer Macs and macOS but that is why I tested it with High Sierra as well. Also the fact that every other camera easily connects via USB direct with the camera - definitely points out the fact that it is a FUJI specific problem.  Furthermore - I remember being able to direct connect early last year. I rarely take the Cards OUT of the camera  these days. The weird thing is I can connect my iPhone 15 via USB-C to 100s and pull files directly - puzzling. Problem is FUJI rarely listens to anyone.
