XT3 4.52 Firmware


Don53

Recommended Posts

I have been using the Fujifilm Cam Remote app on my Iphone without any issues since I bought the camera. The last time I received notification it was for the 4.51 update and when I downloaded to the phone it said my camera already had the latest firmware installed. So today I got another firmware notice update for version 4.52, and same issue occurred the phone down loaded it but when I tried installing it on the camera it said I already had the latest version. I checked the camera and it has firmware version 4.50 on it.

Any ideas on how I can fix this issue. I already re-installed the app on the phone and paired it with the camera still no luck.

Hi Don53, I experienced exactly the same issue with the mobile phone app and the XT3, I sorted it by downloading the firmware file to an SD card and inserting the card into the camera, then switch the camera on whilst holding the DISP/BACK button and select update body.

The process should start then.

Hi Don, thanks for your help. I downloaded the latest firmware 4.52 to SD card and inserted into camera (having taken battery out for a while) - I still have the Pair with Smartphone menu again so I don't see how the camera will take on the update. Any ideas on this? Thanks.

Hi, I have a problem with the XT-3, never experienced this before. Well, I wanted to take a few photos, after taking the photos the diode blinks alternately green and red. I turned off the camera, turned it on again and after pressing the gallery there are no photos there. I don't have a PC configured to automatically upload photos there. I restarted all camera settings to default, formatted two cards in the camera from the camera, still the same, the only thing I've done recently is to update the firmware to version 4.52 ... Help ...

Did you try to start the camera as @Ian1961 wrote, hold down the DISP/BACK button while turning the camera on?

One thing to keep in mind, if you pull the main battery to reset the camera, you have to let the camera sit on the shelf, so to speak, for many days until the settings battery completely discharges, it can take quite a few days.

Thanks Don. I just saw this answer from you. I achieved a firmware update holding down the DISP/BACK button while turning camera on! But unfortunately, I still get the menu 'pair with smart phone' so will now remove battery and leave camera to completely discharge. Will let you know what happens in a few days! Thanks again.

Can anyone help? I’ve got an X-T3 which has worked perfectly until now. I always have it set up to delete RAW and JPEG files simultaneously. Since downloading the new Fuji app to transfer photos I’ve experienced two problems. 1. The camera recorded the date taken on each photo as 2018 (!). 
I managed to sort this out by resetting the date on the camera and also reset the date for my photos on my computer. 
2. the second problem I have not managed to solve….  I can no longer delete RAW and JPEG files simultaneously. I have reset the camera but no joy. I spoke with helpful Fuji support desk who suggested I reinstall the firmware. But of course the X-T3 has the latest firmware so I cannot update it. 
Has anyone else experienced this issue?

how do I uninstall the existing firmware?? Remove battery while turning off camera?? Then wait a week??

 

Any advice would be welcomed.

    • Cheers! I hope to enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed the Spottie I grew up with and which will remain in my bag for life not simply in my bag, but with a roll of film in it, and more to come. I'm coming at the XT5 from a very weird angle. It sort of goes back to unpreparedness. I found myself with my Spotmatic in "the Garden of Ireland" - Wicklow - beautiful county. I was spending a week exploring its beautiful valleys. When the batteries on my Spotmatic failed, I reached into my rucksack for a replacement set. There were none. So I shrugged and decided I had to use my eyes to meter. Things were cheaper then. When picking up processed films the photos came with a new film thrown in, so it was easier to take that decision. Within a few months I was getting nearly 100% keepers - at least in terms of focus and exposure. So circumstances forced me to be ever vigilant of light. I've had many other cameras since then, but the bare bones (it doesn't even have a self-timer) Spotmatic was an ever-present. Expense has forced my hand, though. That and some curiosity. I feel as if my first car is a Ferrari! In fact, when I explained at the shop that I was an experienced photographer looking for a digital which placed the emphasis on stills, they tried to force a €7k model on me. That would be a step too far. Thus my experience in approaching this camera is somewhat unusual. Thus far I have had great enjoyment with it. I was thrilled on opening to box to discover that I was getting utter rubbish from it. Yes!!! I had to learn how to use it! Praise the Lord! I also found a magic button which was the answer to my dreams - the diopter adjustment. That's how naive I was (and am) about the digital offerings - this was an enormous and hugely welcome surprise. I've been learning. The supplied kit lens is not ideal - a 16-80mm zoom. It's pretty sharp, but demanding in manual mode. My old glass reminds me of my father's Opel Senator, which was forgiving to the point that it would comfortably take off at the lights even if you'd mistakenly selected third. My old glass is much more forgiving. At the moment, I'm leaving everything to automatic ISO. I'll wean myself away from that quickly enough, though. in the past I'd retrofitted my son's lenses to my older kit, and found that you needed to be much more precise. I guess when you're designing something which will be adjusted by algorithms then you can make the continuum as tight as you want. My son laughs at me. "You have bracketing mode if you want, Dad.", he'll remind me. "Use burst mode.", he'll add. Some of my habits are deeply ingrained, though. Two other things people find odd about my photography: I never ever use post-processing - what comes out of the camera is the final product. Secondly, I have never once taken photos where the subject is a human being without first requiring a lot of persuasion. 
    • Seconding this! Would be nice to preview a desqueezed image in camera + output it via HDMI.
    • I found my answer. Actually you can assign the profile from a .dng conversion but not from a .tiff conversion. I hadn’t double checked the .dng option.
    • There's no implied threat. I'm just saying that you're going about things the wrong way. Now you're throwing conspiracy theories and mistresses in and, unaccountably for a photographer's forum, the word "buggery". Complaining and nagging may work for you, but I don't see why innocent posters here should be caught in your crossfire. If you want manual shooting, I'm with you. This is my first digital camera. In all of the various bodies adorning my shelf I haven't put a battery in any in over a decade except where the camera simply won't work without the presence of one. People have actually offered me high-spec DSLRs as they upgraded, but this one was the first one I wanted. I've had to change my MO massively in every way. I accept that, because it comes close to realising everything I need from it. Not 100%, but close.  Y'see, I get the fact that the manufacturers have a huge pool of customers to satisfy and as one of them I know and accept that they're not designing a custom camera for me alone. I accept that and I get on with it.  The solution you were offered is not a fudge or a workaround. It is a logical exploitation of a design feature of the camera: the ability to assign commonly-used functions to a button. That is an excellent customisation option. I'm going to gradually exploit that as I gain experience with the machine and learn what I need most readily at my fingertips.
