New Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware ver. 1.10 available

There's a new Lock setting that can be used to lock all controls i.e the camera's dials and buttons, or a selected set of those dials and buttons. You can assign the Lock feature to a function button but as far as I can tell you have to go back into the menus to unlock the controls - it's not a toggle.

 

Which is a pain. Fuji, please fix.

Agreed. Would to perfect if it is a toggle lock and unlock.

I set up the fn button next to the exposure comp dial to lock exposure comp.  When I press it I get the choice to lock the selected function or all functions.  If I choose lock selected function, I can then go back in using the fn button to unlock the selected function, but if I choose Lock all functions, I cannot go back in through the fn button.  I have to go back in through the menu.  

 

After a little experimenting I found that you can select as many functions as you like in the select functions menu and then lock and unlock them by using the fn button you have setup without going into the menu system to unlock.

 

Just make sure that when you choose your selected functions you do not choose the fn button that you are going to be using to lock and unlock.  I accidentally did this while experimenting and was scratching my head as to why I couldn't unlock the selected functions with the fn button.  Like a dummy it took me a couple of minutes to realize I was locking the very fn button that I had chosen of the lock/unlock function.  That is why if you choose lock all functions you cannot unlock them without going into the menu because you have inadvertently locked the fn button you have chosen for the unlock function.  

 

If you really want to lock everything and still not go into the menu system to unlock everything, simply choose every function in the lock selected menu besides the actual fn button you have set for the lock function and you are good to go.

Didn't fix any of the bugs that bug me though... :(

 

Which makes me wonder, do we have any official way of communicating all the bugs to Fujifilm? Or maybe even any beta test program?

 

FYI, I can read and write Japanese, so I can help with interacting with Japanese support department if necessary.

This new plugin, Tether Shooting Plug-in PRO version 1.3, may be buggy. I paid for the new version, and it shows on "Acquired" on my Adobe Add-ons page. But have been unable to install it either via the Creative Cloud, (it doesn't appear on the activity stream) or via the Adobe Extension Manager. The Extension Manager freezes when trying to install the version 1.3 of the Fujifilm Tether Shooting Plug-in PRO. W

    • It is really easy to find out if the wifi is on. Your computer or tablet or cell phone will have a network settings dealing with wifi, bluetooth, ethernet or “other”. Open that up and go into the section for wifi, and take note of which networks are listed. Turn on the camera and keep watching the list of networks. If your camera’s wifi is turned on, a new network should suddenly show up in your computer/tablet/phone’s network listings. Now go into the camera’s menus and start a wireless connection (the x-app or camera remote app can help you with this). You should see a network show up now. It is not hidden because it has to be visible so that your computer/tablet/phone can join the camera’s network to transfer images. Turn the camera off and that network should disappear. Turn the camera back on and see what happens.

    • I think my Fuji 150-600 F8 is a brilliant wildlife lens in terms of sharpness, portability and value but the small aperture does cause issues at the start and end of the day - even pushing the ISO as far as I dare, I can see shutter speed down to 1/25s - stabilisation isn't an issue but asking a deer to stand still for that is too much! In the same situation, an F4 would give 1/100s so the difference to the success rate would be phenomenal... and that's without the other improvements like shallower depth of field. I also find that the Fuji's subject detect AF gets pretty iffy in low light - I keep updating to the latest firmware but it doesn't seem to get any better. I was originally looking at the Nikon 500mm F4 E but good examples secondhand are still reasonably expensive but like-for-like Sigma lenses are around half the price. Reviews I have read suggest that they are as good optically, AF performance and IS-wise but you gain a few hundred grams of weight (but less than the older Nikon model). For a couple of grand, I can live with that. Does anyone have any experience mounting one on an XH2S? What about with the 1.4 teleconverter? It feels like that is pushing it anyway - hefty lens + TC + Fringer all sounds a bit...wobbly? It is on the Fringer approved list but I am wary about AF speed in particular. I had also considered looking for a used Nikon 400mm F2.8, which would be even faster (and heavier) and could couple with a TC to give 560mm F4 but again, it is that lens+TC+Fringer combination that worries me as being just too many links in the chain. Of course, what I really want is a native Fuji prime but that doesn't seem to be on the horizon - and if you look at what Nikon and Sony are doing, if Fuji do ever bring out a 500mm prime, it will probably be a small, light and cheapish F5.6, which is only 2/3 stop better than my zoom at the same focal length. Any thoughts anyone?
    • The Amazon link is an annoying feature of this forum - its automatic and is applied to every post for advertising purposes. My question was - how do you know the camera wi-fi is on and requires turning off? I would have thought this would just use up the battery for no purpose if you aren't specifically using a function that requires wi-fi.
