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

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?

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!

The odd thing about these shots, are that they are always landscapes - I am standing still and the subject is! 

I had not considered AF keeper rates! Certainly this does put things into perspective. I would imagine extreme quality control for a company like Fujifilm, and moving from Nikon, I can say I have never had this experience before with the Nikon F6 or DF (on any lenses). I remain optimistic and pleased with the many excellent pictures I am capable to capture!  It is just nice to have the soundness of mind that "near-perfection" in AF offers, which at least one other brand, Nikon, has offered me, anecdotally. I can't jump to conclusions, of course, and rule out my own user error, but I have noticed blurry shots corner to corner consistently.  I will update when I send the camera in to have the company check it out! Thank you jerryy for your care, knowledge, and insight!
