The X-T1 camera menu has options for Continuous and Shooting image stabilization. The XF series lenses have a stabilization switch. It is always recommended that you turn off the switch when shooting on a tripod. I just got an XC lens, which has no switch. The reviews on web sites say you use the camera settings. With no option in camera for an off, any recommendation about what to do when IS is not wanted?

 

Thanks.

This is another case of reading the manual or at least go through the menu.

 

There is an option in the menu to switch IS (Image stabilization) off.

 

The first option of Menu 5. This is automatically inactive if you use a lens without any stabilization.

 

If you use a lens with stabilization but no external switch for it, you put it on off ( I have the 50-30 which requires me doing this this way).

 

Otherwise you leave it always on and reach for the control on those lenses which offer it to you.

 

Problem solved but really it is all there.

 

Good Luck!

I have the same camera and the same firmware,  I can only tell you that my camera does have this option , including off, with my XC 50-230.

 

Unless something is broken in you lens ( or a contact is dirty) and it isn’t in mine, I don’t see how this would be different on both cameras. I can only tell you that if you don’t have to possibility to switch it off in menu 5 then there is something wrong with something but I am pretty sure that what I described is the correct way in which this is supposed to work, so does it with my camera and lens and is exactly what it says in the manual too because it has never been different.

Interesting. The XC must be mounted before the menu option Off is available. I was looking at the menu with the XF mounted and the Off option wasn't there. Smart camera.

 

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

If you don’t have any XC lens, you cannot see this because the camera knows you have a switch on the lens.

 

The camera senses the type of lens you have on, the IS option is not allowed, for example with manual lenses or adapters.

 

When you mount a XF lens and you enter the menu the next screen is ( I am translating since my menu is in another language) continuos, single shot AND on/off

Well, that sounds logical to me. Why display an option that is not available?

      Also, there's a setting "Shoot without a lens" that needs to be turned on for lenses with no contacts and adapted manual lenses, otherwise the camera won't respond to the shutter button when you have a manual/old/no contact lens attached.

      So, the lens isn't focusing. What is the original lens you were using? Is the camera switched to an auto-focus mode? S or C

      Blurred Screen

      When I look through the view finder it’s blurred along with the image showing on the screen. So when I take the picture it comes out blurry as well. The information is still showing clearly on both the screen and viewfinder.  I bought a cheap lens from pocket dispo and when I put that one on the camera I can see the images clearly through the viewfinder with no problem but I’m unable to take a picture.  I’m not sure but I thought the lens would click into place when attached to the camera but I’m not hearing that noise anymore. Tried to upload a picture of the camera but it’s saying the file is too large.

      HDMI issue

      By Tomasz GFX · Posted

      Hi there,  I just got a DJI video transmission system and want set it up with my GFX 100 II.  The problem is, that it doesn't work when I connect the HDMI cable to the transmitter.  The camera display goes on and off about every second and there is no video transmission.  Has anyone had the same issue?  I have checked the following: - the HDMI video resolution is set to FHD 16:9 30fps - HDMI output settings: output info display is set to OFF - HDMI output settings: HDMI rec control is set to OFF - HDMI output settings: RAW output settings set to OFF - The latest firmware is installed on both the camera and the DJI transmitter  - Both the camera and transmitter have fully charged battery  - Video transmission from another camera works [using a different cable, though A <-> B ] I have tried 2 different HDMI cables and tomorrow I'll test it with another "ultra-fast" one.  Omitting the transmitter and connecting the camera directly to the DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor works perfectly with both cables I've tried.  Have you heard about any HDMI problems with Fujifilm cameras?  Do you have any suggestions?
