XT-2 soft rear command dial

[Runin]

Im new but Im wondering if anyone has any complaints with there XT-2  rear command dial being a little spongy in a since when scrolling I inadvertently press the zoom function constintly, which seems really easy to press compared to the xpro2 .  Did i mention I love this new upgrade. I'd just like to know if anyone else feels the command dials are  a little soft. The rear command dial on the XPRO2 is stiff and deliberate to press. I have time return it for another, but if thats just how they are I'II keep what I have. Thanks in advance. Edited Thanks flysurfer

If you can press the command dial of your X-T1, you broke it.

 

Both rear command dials on my XT-1 & XPRO2 are stiff and deliberate to press.

The rear command dial on my X-T2 is very easy to inadvertently press and was wondering the same - is this a design flaw or is it a defect of the one I received. I'm coming from an X-T10 where I never had that issue.

 

Did you wind up exchanging your copy? If so, is it better?

 The XT-2 is a great camera, but I decided to send it back. I'm sure the dial would loosen even more over time.

Thanks for the reply. I'm sending mine back for another copy as well. The reports I've been hearing indicate that pressing the dial button is usually a much more deliberate action.

I've found that to be true as well. While swiping the dial, I invariably push it and it takes you out of the mode and you have to start all over again.

I don't care for how sensitive the dial is. After so many times of doing that, I have lightened up on the touch. But I agree, that wheel is just too soft and that the push happens all too easily.
