Hi all,

 

The LCD and EVF view modes on the X-E4 are driving me mad. Hopefully, because the camera is new to me, I'm just missing something obvious somewhere.

 

This is what I want:

1. The LCD off at all times, unless I press 'menu' to change a setting, or Q to get to my Quick Menu, or 'Play' to review a photograph. When I press these three options I want the LCD to come on, but otherwise I want it to stay off.

2. The EVF on via the eye sensor.

 

If I choose EVF only view mode I can only see the menu via the EVF. Anything other mode and the LCD is always on, which i don't want.

 

What am I missing? This is possible, right?

 

Thanks

      X-H2S Dead After Firmware 7.20 Update via App

      By Boromir12 · Posted

      Yesterday I updated my X-H2S to firmware version 7.20 through the Fujifilm app, and immediately after, the camera stopped working. It powers on but is completely unresponsive. I tried every possible fix: With and without lenses Different lenses Removing battery and cards Force firmware recovery Nothing worked — the camera remains bricked. This body has been carefully handled with very limited use, and it’s just over 2 years old (so out of warranty). Tomorrow I’ll be contacting Fuji support and sending it to the Mississauga, ON service centre. This problem looks very similar to the app-based firmware update issue that Fujifilm publicly acknowledged in January 2023 for other X-series models, where cameras froze after updating via the app. In those cases, Fujifilm accepted responsibility and repaired them at no cost. I’m sure they’re going to charge me a lot of money for this. Do any of you have similar experiences?

      High-contrast scenes creating too dark JPGs with X-T50??

      By pw-pix · Posted

      I've tried shooting jpg in my Fuji cameras and I do not like the results. I find the shadows blocked up and the overall tonality too dark. I always shoot raw except for a couple of times when I've tried raw + jpg as an experiment. Why don't you spend some time adjusting the parameters of your chosen jpg film simulation to better fit your expectations. Increase shadow exposure, for example to reduce the harsh contast. Try a couple of steps at a time to see if you can get output more to your liking.

      High-contrast scenes creating too dark JPGs with X-T50??

      By Tvir · Posted

      Hi Everyone! I like to continue analyzing as to what I find problematic in X-T50's photometry/exposure measurement. My settings related to this issue are as follows: Film simulation in C (default), Exposure mode Multi (center-weighted, no difference), ISO 500 (increased if there is not enough light for handheld shots), DR400. Mostly I use the aperture-priority autoexposure, aperture at 8, picture quality fine, and for casual/travel photos saved as JPGs (for pictures which I find important I use RAW; I'm _not_ now discussing RAW; I would like to use the HEIC format but Mac's Photos app handles them so so slowly (in contrast to Apple's own HEIC) and Photoshop only recognizes them thorough the RAW editor!). So, I wonder why X-T50 underexposes certain similar kind of scenes, particularly, if the day is relatively bright, but cloudy and there are strongish/some contrasts although the light is dull, for example cloudy sky and dark forest. To me, looking by my eyes, the scene is not that contrasty. The result is a photo, let's say, too dim, the dark parts getting too dark. Of course, it is possible to lighten the photo by increasing exposure manually. The strange thing is that I didn't have this problem with my Nikon D7100. As to other lighting conditions, I find that X-T50 does great job: Colors are nice, photos are crisp and they are nicely exposed. To me, Fujifilm X-T50's photometry programming needs adjustment in situations in which the light is dull but there are strong whitish elements. All comments welcome! Regards, Tuomas

      Manual focus with XE5

      By Orson · Posted

      While using manual focus lenses on the XT5 , I use manual focus assistance : the camera zooms in and while turning the focus , the highlighted colour is shown. When you half press the shutter , the camera zooms out which is easy to recompose. The XE5 does not seem to zoom out when half pressing the shutter. Is this normal or a setting I am missing?

      X-T5 blurry corner-to-corner pictures?

      By mjoseph67 · Posted

      Thank you everyone for your help and direction. If anyone else has ideas I havent thought of, feel free to share. And I have decided to send the camera in for Fujifilm to check, with an open mind that there is a natural AF keeper rate. I love my XT5 (had it for two months) and yeah, keep shooting, folks! [A final sample blurry photo for future folks who may experience similar issues (you will notice nothing is in focus in foreground or background) ... ]
