Hallo everyone!! I would like your feedback on some issues I have been experiencing, and sadly not good ones ☹ One of my x cameras, an xt3 has died on me. Has anyone experienced any problems and denied service of their camera just because it was not purchased in the country or region of residence (not talking about warranty)? Also has anyone had his camera die on him after installing a new firmware? Has anyone’s camera repeatedly set itself back to factory settings? The camera stuck and eventually not working at all?

Was the camera purchased from a Fujifilm authorised retailer?

In the UK the situation is a bit ambiguous - it doesn't specifically say if grey imports will be accepted for paid repair:

For products that are under warranty - Many countries have different warranty terms therefore we would review all warranty claims on a case-by-case basis. Please contact our support team on 0344 553 2321 or email csd_uk@fujifilm.com and a member of our team will be happy to help. For products outside of warranty - Please visit our website to book a chargeable repair. If your product was found to be purchased from a non-authorised retailer, it may be considered to be a grey import. In these cases, FUJIFILM UK reserve the right to reject the warranty.

I had a problem with a 10-24mm lens that was a grey import from Hong Kong. It was repaired with no issues, but of course I had to pay. I live in the UK. I have had no problems like yours with my X-T3. It sounds to me that something went wrong during  the firmware upgrade and the rest followed from that.

      X-T5 Cleaning Mistake

      Because the sensor assembly is moved electrmagnetically. When there is no power it is essentially free moving.

      Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

      55 or 80?

      By BIGOAK · Posted

      Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?

      See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.
