Have just become the proud owner of the 100T and have to say what a great manual you get with this camera - hence this post.

 

With my X-Pro 1 - I had the option to include the 'grid overlay' in the viewer - but can;t seem to find an option in themanual or menu settings.

Am I to assume that this feature has been removed on this camera?

 

I used this feature for horizon levelling as well as 'framing scenes' - knowing when a shot needed to be captured according to the rule of thirds and when it was best to throw the rule out of the window.

 

Just - why do Fuji make such great cameras and such pitiful manuals to explain the various menus and features?

I'm pretty sure its still there somewhere.  I don't use it on mine, but I think I remember seeing it as an option.  There is also the auto-level line that turns green when you get the camera leveled out, either horizontal or vertical that you can display also.  I use that all the time.

 

I'm away from my camera right now, but there is a "custom display settings" section.  I always get it confused with the custom settings for the C1, C2, etc profiles of all your jpg and iso etc settings, so the name is similar.

 

In the display section, you can set up the OVF and then the EVF/LCD separately.  I will check when I get home tonight and update if needed.

Ok, so found it in a version of the manual at least.  That's half the battle!  :P

It's called Framing Guidlines, and you have a couple options as to how many lines you get.

 

I'm pretty sure the main menu heading isn't called "Screen Settings" but I can't for the life of me remember what it actually is.

      Hello, If you look in the top right-hand corner of each posting, there should be three dots in a row, like this —>  …  <—, click on them and after a moment or twelve, a small menu should drop down from the dots, the last entry in the menu is ‘Edit’. Choose that and after a moment or three you should be in edit mode for that entry. Note: Only you can edit your entries.

      Jerry I found out it's a Cherry Blossom but I can't figure out how to edit it.

      What is most ironic about this is that there must be many of us here that would be interested in significant ads about the products we're discussing. I would be. I normally hate ads, but relevant ones here would actually be somewhat welcome. What are the recent new Fuji product announcements? Is anybody offering a sale? How about 3rd party products? I mean, I actually want to spend money, more or less.

      CANNOT BACKUP OR RESTORE X-T4 SETTINGS WITH FUJI X ACQUIRE

      By Astigmatism · Posted

      I don't think I have your answer, but it's worth trying. It's been a few days, are you still struggling with this? I've used Acquire (on an iMac) and an X-T4 (also an X-T5 and an X-T30 ii) and it worked, at least as far as backing up. No error messages, and a computer file with stuff in it. I understand you get an error message when you attempt to restore the camera from a backup, but, does it look to you like the backup phase is working? I mean, do you get a saved file and no error messages? Do you have any other Fuji cameras, and does it work for them? I have had problems getting Acquire to detect the camera. I did all manner of playing around with starting the software, plugging in the camera, and powering the camera on, in various orders (including what the instructions say). I always got it to work eventually, but it took lots of playing some times. Lately it fires right up. Somebody here commented on this difficulty and the security obstacles in the computer. Are you getting a connection easily, or after trying things, or not at all? Does Acquire show your camera model and the few settings it displays correctly?
