I m looking for a low profile L bracket for my XT5.  Any ideas? 

The L brackets listing on eBay are comes with a extended hand grip, which is not for my taste. All I want is a sample quick release bracket with the battery access.

Happy Holidays to you all.

Sunwayfoto makes one https://sunwayfoto-store.com/products/pfl-xt5-l-bracket-for-fujifilm-x-t5-arca-swiss-quick-release-l-plate 

SmallRig also has one and it's available to order from eBay.com https://www.ebay.com/itm/295314548925

Just be aware that both are shipped from China.  The latter has a delivery estimates of March :(  The former might delivered in a more reasonable time, but as SunwayFoto mentions on their web site, the Chinese Spring Festival may delay shipments.

There is also Really Right Stuff, but that is pre-order only and quite expensive at $225.

At some point, I'm sure the SunwayFoto bracket will be available on Amazon.com.  I have a number of rails and pano clamps from them that I ordered on Amazon to build my Pano rig.

Hi All,

I just made a purchase through AliExpress.https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804815855408.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.3.52dbf19cHWUNSl&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa&_randl_shipto=US

The price is good and it is exactly what I want. I don't feel like to get the extra hand grip to make my camera bigger. That's the point to get an expensive APS-C camera, right? I shoot most landscape and like to pack light to hike.

I m not sure why the seller needs to take WEEKS to ship that little thing... will keep you all posted if I have received it. Fingers crossed.

I purchased one from this guy at :

https://www.ebay.com/itm/SmallRig-Arca-Swiss-L-Bracket-for-FUJIFILM-X-T5-Mirrorless-Camera-Black-4137/125592497931?pageci=d76a2f52-6fe4-4b25-a913-245b402155fe&epid=22057461559&redirect=mobile

He is saying March 4th for delivery, which is about the month it took me to get mine. The New Years festival doesn't help. SmallRig has been saying "Available Soon" since the XT5 release.

I like mine. I think it is well made. Really like the pop-out side bracket.

I have the JJC and Smallrig, have to say Smallrig is much better than JJC (the grip is too thicker ), unless you prefer a hard metal grip. I think Fuji's and Smallrig are best options.

For smallrig plate, you may have to grate the edge where the bottom of your hand rest for it to feel like the camera body edge.

I have the SmallRig that I bought in Dec. and it has been my best L-bracket for any of my cameras. The side bracket has an about one inch movement and it is easy to manipulate it. It enhances the camera and the grip of the camera.

Hi All,

The L-Bracket I brought from Aliexpress is pretty good. The side bracket is adjustable and removable.

I love it.

    • Thanks Olaf, you are right, I did typo error by put "-" accidentally Now the software run smoothly in my PC Problem now, is the USB connection between camera and my PC is not stable, as with the same USB C to A cable I have smooth flaw with my macbook  
    • Might be a problem with the folder name (special character for example) or path length (exceeding 255 characters)  
    • Hey all, new to the forum. Had a question for X-Pro 2, and Fuji users in general, I guess, haha. Just got into photography this past year. I bought my X-Pro 2 secondhand back in August. It’s been a joy to use. Great condition and worked perfectly but recently (the past few weeks) I’ve been running into a problem where the camera will intermittently shut off and won’t turn back on again unless I remove and reinsert the battery. Even then, it sometimes won’t turn back on again and it’ll take a few tries to get it running again. It will also sometimes shut off and reset everything while switching between LCD/OVF/EVF.I haven’t dropped it or taken it out in extreme weather, or anything. Using fully charged, Fuji batteries, compatible SD cards, etc. Have updated the firmware, and factory reset it a few times. Just today, even, when the camera was briefly working, I tested a few shots and the shutter seemed to get stuck a few times then turn off.  I’m more than likely going to send it in for repair (hoping they actually have parts for such an old camera) but was wondering if anyone else has ever had these types of issues with their X-Pro 2? Or might have any ideas as to why these things are occurring. Thinking it could be anything from a shutter problem to an internal power problem. I have been using Urth adapters for experimenting with various manual prime lenses (not sure if that would cause any issues).  Appreciate any info! Thanks.
    • Hi, I just downloaded Pixel shift combiner software, for both mac and PC. I tethered GFX100 to macbook, did the multishot and everything flow OK, no problem. But considering to much time to wait, I copied the 16 RAW files to my PC (I think higher spec will make combining process faster), separate macbook to shoot and PC to process, but when I tried to "register jobs" to start the combining process, it can't open the folder, showing :
