Yesterday I saw that this button has rotated and then i couldn't use it. Now when I'm rotating it back its working but it is annoying.
Has anyone had a similar problem? Any solution without sending it to a service?

I am having the same issue and had the camera sent to the repair service under guanrantee. They pretend now that I did cause the damage. During my holiday, I just put some scotch to keep the button horizontal and working no other way to still use the camera. Seeing some tiny trace of adhesive the repair service said I have to pay for this repair (no guarantee): 130€ What can I do to get this properly handeld under the guarantee as this seems to be a well known defect of this model?

This is such a pity.... I have handled the camera to the local fujifilm service and I'm waiting for their call. They told me it would take 2-3 weeks for the parts to arrive. If I have the same problem I would contact Fujifilm directly via email, then print their answer (if they approve the guarantee for this defect as someone in another forum said) and bring it to the repair center.

I found a way to fix the issue: rotate the button back into position (turn it clockwise) using an X-acto knife. Then place a small square of duct tape over the button to hold it in place. The square must be large enough to stick to the button and some of the metal around it. You can still use the button through the tape, and the tape prevents it rotating back into the bad position.

 

My X-T10 is out of warranty, and the thumb rest has fallen off, along with the rubber grip material on half of the camera, and this button failure. I haven't abused this camera - they are simply not built to a very high standard, I'm afraid. It still takes wonderful pictures, but I can't say I would recommend anyone buy one of these.

The point, self evidently, that I was making was not to take away your problem, it's an issue for you, but to suggest they will be lots more good batches than bad. If it were more prevalent I would hope a recall, as with other manufacturers, would be carried out.

2019, and thankful to have found this easy solution, thank you.I thought it was pressed inside or so.

Hi all. I own a Fujifilm XT-10 and the playback button rotated and no longer works. The rubber on the thumb rest also fell off. I’ve been in situations the last while where I really needed/wanted to use the camera so I haven’t had a chance to get it repaired. I’m now a few hours away from a Jasper and Banff National Park trip with no playback button. So yeah. Kinda blows. I tried switching another button to playback function but that’s not an option. Should be for emergency situations. My camera is not under warranty anymore. But reading this forum makes me realize I’m not the only one with the thumb rest rubber issue as well as the bigger issue with the playback button. If this is truly a defect issue, Fujifilm should repair with or without warranty. Otherwise still loving my little beast.

    • 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!
    • 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.
    • 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
    • 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.
