Hi, I’m personally a big fujifilm fan with several cameras, but I have recently bought a 2nd hand white fujifilm X-A2, which has worked fine for now, used with a helios 44-2. Today I turned it on, the screen appears white? Once stretched out, the display seems fine. I was wondering if any of you have faced this issue before & if it’s easily fixable & how. Despite its age, I do really like the camera as a camera to be used with my helios 44-2.

This looks like a defect in the cable or plug. Send the digital camera to Fujifilm so that they can make you a cost estimate if they still repair this ancient digital camera.

They don’t repair the X-A2 anymore, it was additionally apparently never officially sold in Switzerland either. Nor is it really ancient, it’s only from 2015, it’s fine outside of this display issue.

Yes, that's a pity.

Interesting to learn that.

Well, 2015 in digital technology is very old for me when you look at the advances in digital camera technology.

I see this myself on the Nikon D850 compared to my Fujifilm X-A1. If I take a video shot at night with the Nikon, then I can see a flying plane, the stars and the Orion Nebula completely. If I do this with the same lens with the same aperture (F/1.4) with the X-A1, then I only see a single white pixel in the video. Sensor technology has continued to evolve.

Yes, if you can live with it that way. Maybe there is another repair service on the Internet for your digital camera. Or do you not want to have the X-A2 repaired at all?

Indeed, I will have to go to Basel to get it repaired, likely. I merely use it with a helios 44-2 as a camera to learn how to use manual focus that still is somewhat good. The pictures it takes are still amazing but it is in a completely different market to the D850, always was and always will be tbh. They are completely different cameras in completely different price brackets.

      Are you certain the spot is on the inside and not some small amount leftover from the spot you cleaned? Maybe try a different brand of lens cleaner, but make sure it is safe for lenses so that the lens coatings are not removed. Even weather resistant lenses can get dust inside, the seals can only keep out so much dust and zoom lenses are known to get dusty on occasion. More so than prime lenses do. Weather resistant means more sealing, but achieving perfect sealing is tough to get. It is also possible the dust has been there from the time it was manufactured and you are only now noticing because of the white dot. Does the dust show up in any of your photos? As far as cleaning cost goes, your local camera repair shop will be able to give you some estimates, prices will be different depending on where you are.

      Update: the camera seems to have self-corrected. 🤷‍♂️  My working hypothesis is that moisture caused it to glitch, and after drying out, it's working again.
