My X-Pro2 Review.


Recommended Posts

Time for the continuation of my look at focusing features on the X-Pro2.

 

This week I'm sharing my tips for focus peaking, and we'll take a look if a little trick for reducing shutter lag carriers over from the X-Pro1 or not...

OK!

 

Time for the next part of my X-Pro2 review:

 

This week I take a took at (well through) the Electronic Range Finder.

 

I have to say; it's totally amazing, and clever and innovative... and also I have to advise why you might not want to use it all the time...

This week's instalment of the X-Pro2 review:

 

It seems that history repeats itself and people are making very similar claims about the X-Pro2, as they did the X-Pro1...

 

Whether or not these opinions are valid, is a matter of opinion!

 

But let's take a little look and see what we think!

I have shared this elsewhere on our forum...

 

but to keep continuity to my X-Pro2 review:

 

I'm sure I won't be the only internet writer blogging about this today(!!), but here's my 1st look at the Fujifilm XPro2 new Firmware - so what do all these new things mean & do?
 
I think I have some answers!

Today I begin a series about using the RFC (powered by SilkyPix) RAW convertor that is supplied with Fuji camera.

 

I'm not about to big RFC up as the best tool out there (it's not!), but it gets a "bad press" and when a lot of people say that something is very bad, I (personally) always like to take a look for myself..

After the 'far more work than I expected' series about RFC, it's back to actually talking about photography with the X-Pro2 for this week's instalment :)

 

The regular followers out there will notice that I'm releasing this on Saturday night, not Sunday morning...

 

...This means two things: 1) Yes I clearly have no life :D and 2) I'm on location all day tomorrow!

 

So for this week, I recall the first time I trusted the X-Pro2 out in the field... How did I find it?

After the 4 part XF56 APD review, it's time to get back to the reality of what I actually do own and can afford :D

 

With many people (but not all of course) about to enter into the ritual of gift giving, I take a look at what to get your loved one.. especially if you're on a budget

It's been 6 months since I got my X-Pro2... I didn't just rush out and get it, I thought long and hard about what it offered that I wanted and actually needed over the X-Pro1.

 

Now that the dust has settled, and the honeymoon finished... Am I still happy?

What a week it's been for new cameras, and not just Fujifilm ones!

 

How fantastic for anyone eagerly awaiting an upgrade.

 

But what about the rest of us?

 

Well, I guess we could take a long walk with our existing gear and enjoy seeing the world and taking pictures?

 

That's what I did... Want to join me?

This week; in the first of a multi part series, I take a look at camera settings, and how to prepare to get what you need out of your camera.

 

A few people have been saying that the X-Pro2 is "too complicated" but it's only as complicated as you want it and ultimately a question of how you approach it!

    • 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.
