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.

      pocket wizard and XT5?

      By LBAbrams · Posted

      Has anyone successfully used pocket wizards with an XT5? I cannot get it to fire.  Do Fujis and pocket wizards get along? Thanks in advance for your wisdom on this, kind readers!

      Transfer X-T5 for PC wi fi...

      Grzegorz, Go to the Networking Setting in your camera menu (the last one at the bottom - unless you have a My Menu then that is the last one). There, go to Network Setting and choose the SSID (name) of your WiFi network, type in the password, choose "SET". If you have a functioning DHCP server on your network, the camera should get its IP address (and Subnet_Mask and Gateway). If not, you can enter these manually. It is a little tricky, there will be some zeros already here, move the cursor after the zero and use DEL to delete it and make space in the input fields for your own correct values. If you do not know what to enter, have a look at values in the network settings of your computer and use the same except for the IP address, try some fairly higher number, hopefully you hit an unused one. Usually the values would be something like IP: 192.168.1.188, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway IP: 192.168.1.1  or something like that, take clues from your computer. The camera and computer must be on the same network. Then in Connection Mode on the camera, choose Wireless Tethering Fixed. And half-press the shutter to exit the menu and get in shooting mode. The red LED should be blinking. If you can look at your network devices, e.g. on your router, you should see the camera there. You can see check the camera settings in the camera menu in the INFORMATION item of the Network Setting menu to see the MAC address of your camera and look for it in the list of devices on your network.  Then use the tethering in your software, e.g. in Capture One. The camera may not show immediately, take a shot and then it should show in the list of available cameras. Good luck. Report back how did you fare.  PS If you have a Windows machine, you need to have Bonjour installed and running. Macs have it.

      X-T30 II Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display viewmode not working

      By grizzski · Posted

      Hey all, I just got my first camera. The X-T30 II. It seems the Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display view-mode is doing the exact same thing as just the Eye Sensor view-mode setting. Any ideas why this is or what's supposed to be happening? Firmware Version: 2.04

      Problem with multi exposure on XT5

      By George_P · Posted

      What GordW said. You have to put the drive mode dial to "S" - Single Frame. If you have it on CL, CH, BKT or Panorama (or HDR), the Multiple Exposure option will be greyed out in the shootng menu. On my X-T5 it works in RAW + JPG and also in JPG only. When Multiple Exposure is switched on, the image quality cannot be set to RAW only. If it was set to RAW only before switching Multiple Exposure On, image quality defaults to RAW+Fine. The result is JPG. After each shot press MENU/OK and after the last one press DISP/BACK.
