Hello again everyone,
Well, I some of you may remember that I had the freezing problem on a previous X Pro 2 which I took back and had a replacement for. That replacement is fine (for now). I then bought an additional X Pro 2 for work, which has taken about 3,000 pictures and now has issues. It's occasionally doing the 'Turn on/off' thing, but it's also getting what appears to be a stuck shutter, before freezing and giving up.

I experienced this error today with version 1.0. Tonight I did the update.   Background: had a studio shoot today with two models that totaled approximately 45 minutes. Lens was 35mm f2. Fast cards

I am on my second X-Pro2 now having replaced the first one. They both have the turn on/off issue. I have read threads where other people had their camera replaced and the issue persisted. I'm beginnin

Yes brianmilo, LCE is where I bought it and they had one in stock to swap with my other one...they initially said it would need to be sent off to Fuji to be fixed but I wasn't too happy with that give

Last week I bought from Camtec photo Montreal a second X-Pro2 body, on the frame 00074 got ablack frame with the message to switch off and back on. This body is in the 62AXXXXX serie from Fujifilm Canada. Hopefully after reading this issue in the forum, Fuji will find a solution to this worrisome problem soon. I am just wondering if I continue using it, will I be risking more damage to the camera?

I'm literally right in the middle of shooting a wedding with the X-Pro2 right now. The freezing/black frame issue just happened to me, thankfully not during an important moment, but I was stressed enough to look the issue up.

Using the 23. When it happened I was using EVF, single shot, single point. Nothing special. It looked like the shutter stuck partyway across the frame, leaving a small band of the image, the camera froze and I got the error message to turn it off and back on.

Guess I'll be calling Fujifilm USA.

For anyone interested: http://www.fujirumors.com/breaking-full-list-of-fujifilm-firmware-updates-coming-on-june-9-x-pro2-offon-bug-fix-more/

 

Granted it's just a rumour at the moment, but in a couple of days we should find out whether it's fixed or not.

 

Yes! Saw that. Fingers crossed. But at this point I'm not sure the error I saw Saturday is the same error. I didn't end up with a black frame.

The firmware update is here since today, addressing the issue described in the following way:

 

The phenomenon below that occurs on rare occasions is fixed.
・Horizontal lines appears on LCD or EVF when Auto-rotate playback.
・"TURN OFF THE CAMERA AND TURN ON AGAIN." message is displayed right after shooting.

4 months into the fix. I wouldn't call that exactly fast resolution on critical for some cameras bug. However it is good that the issue is finally suppose to be fix.

Make xPro2 great again! :)

 

Agree, and I first gonna believe it after testing it under high pressure. Really hoping it is fixed through the firmware update. Fingers crossed...

Hi All!...My name is Eric.  I figured this would be the best play to post my experience.  Completely new to the X-Ecosystem.  My Brand new X-Pro2 arrived today.  Along with the 16 f/1.4, and 5 frames in, I got the dreaded "f0" error!!!  Nothing I did could snap the camera out of it.  It quickly became a very expensive paperweight.  Of course I immediately Googled any info I could find on the subject.  I found "f0" issues people had with the X-Pro1 and the XT1, but nothing with the X-Pro2.  I currently only have the 16mm, so I couldn't test to see if it was a lens or camera issue.  Judging by other experiences people had with the issue, I'm guessing it's the camera .  I immediately contacted my retailer, Amazon, sent back the body an hour after unboxing it, and have a full replacement on its way.  Not the beginning to my Fuji relationship I hoped for. 

 

Any thoughts or things heard through the grapevine?

 

Here's some info if it helps at all-

Serial- 61A...

Samsung PRO+ SD (Dual)

Issue happened immediately after going into playback and snapping back into frame with shutter button.

      GFX 100s not connecting to Mac via USB-C

      By jerryy · Posted

      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

      By jerryy · Posted

      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

      By jmm123 · Posted

      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.

      Focus Sound on NEW XF33mm F1.4 R LM WR

      By Jk1006 · Posted

      Hi all, I notice that there are some focusing sound on my XF33 despite it being said as completely silent in many review. The focusing sound is kind of like stepping motor sound, and it only appears when I’m shooting photo. I try shooting near and far away and there is sound. However, it is completely silence when I shoot videos. Is it normal or do I need to change some of my setting? Or am I just getting a not too good copy haha. please assist me with the matter guys! Thanks!
