I suppose it could be possible to contact Fuji directly since some folks do register their purchase with Fuji if they bought it from on on line source and enjoy guarantee rights

Another possibility is getting in touch with the local Greek police.

 

Obviously that would have been the first place where the owner of the camera would have gone. If he or she were tourists there is a high likelihood that they were insured with a travel insurance which normally also covers theft or losing things like these. The insurance claim procedure would have compelled the owner to go to the local police since you cannot claim the insurance coverage without a police report done where the item went missing.

 

I don’t know what made OP take the camera with him or her (to Japan?), maybe he was in a rush with his tourist tour and didn’t have the chance to go to the proper police station, but in Greece, the police, like anywhere else in the world, would have had a regular form to fill and the camera would have been placed in official custody and wouldn’t have been disappearing in the pockets of some clerk. If not claimed or the owner could not be found, then the finder would have got the item after some time and become the legal owner. At present,  being probably this reported as stolen for an insurance claim, OP might be in possession of stolen property without realizing that!

 

I don’t know why OP thought of not doing that and to go to a internet forum to find the owner ( despite what we might think of fora and ourselves, there is still a minority of the Fujifilm users who also frequent fora) but the likelihood of finding the rightful owner this way is certainly minimal.

 

Good Luck!

 

 

This is a link to useful numbers in Meteora, it includes the number of the closest jurisdictional tourist Police office in Kalabaka, which, of course, would have dealt with a report of someone losing the camera in Meteora.

here all the tourist police, the Kalabaka is at the end of the page.

Blue Jays are tricky to get good photos like you have, they tend to fly away as soon as the lens cap comes off 😀.
    • I own the Fuji X-T1 and X-H1. I own several Fuji lenses but I tend to use 3rd party vintage manual glass which I find quite enjoyable to use. I'm testing a photo here taken from my Flickr account that showcases the Tokina 100-300mm Zoom lens with 1.4 extender.

    • Forgot to mention another thing. Mine does not work if I plug the USB cord into a USB hub. It only works if I plug the cord into one of the USB ports on my computer itself (an iMac). This surprises me because I think there's a hub built into the computer itself, which is how the computer has multiple USB ports in the first place. I think it was somebody here that suggested I try that -- sorry I don't remember who!
    • On another forum someone suggested spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the wheel but the Fuji tech said that could risk frying the rest of the cameras electrical so I haven't tried that.
    • I have an x100VI with 1.01 firmware - did a reset already and didnt solve issue I am about to describe. Can you all see if your camera does this: Switch to C mode, step down to f16 and then press shutter half way. Does your screen go dark? I have tried playing will all settings (have had the following so quite familiar with the menus: x100, x100f, XT-2, X-Pro 2, XT-3) , only happens in C mode. If you find this can you report to Fuji @ digitalinfo@fujifilm.com. They told me they had not seen this before and that it was normal behavior because the shutter is closing, but the shutter closes in S mode as well.
