Hi,

 

My X-T1 having problem on the body mount. Even the lens is properly latched, sometime it will lost contact and the camera reinitialised with the lens or sometime aperture become F0. Problem is serious with heavier lens such as 56mm F1.2 R and 50-140mm F2.8 R LM OIS.

 

Did any X-shooter having the same problem?

 

Any solution to solve the problem?

 

Thanks

Are you sure it's not the documented f/0 problem? In this problem the lenses stop focusing and the camera shows f/0. The camera will still take (unfocused) images. This error requires replacement of a cicuit board within the camera, and will be fixed under warranty. I strongly recommend sending the camera in for repair and not waiting.

The 55-200 is a tad loose on my X-T1.  I can just barely feel the lens move on the mount.  This is the second 55-200 this has happened to but I've learned to live with it.  However, it seems your issue requires a call to Fuji USA>

I already send the camera to Fujifilm service center to fix it. They say is the first encounter for this kind of problem on X-T1. They replace the body mount FOC even though my camera's warranty period end and just charge me labour.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
