X-T2 / KAIZEN wishlist

I would also love a 5x4 crop with the next firmware update. At present I use the 6 x 4 grid overlay in the viewfinder. This makes it easy to compose in a 5 x 4 ratio. In the menu go to set up, screen set up, framing guidelines. Not as good as the 5 x 4 crop I had in my Nikon but manageable.

When converting an image from RAF to JPEG in camera:

 

Place the converted jpeg in the sequence/order shot, not last in line.

 

That makes it possible to directly compare the unconverted (pre-conversion) jpeg to the in camera converted jpeg.

 

2)

 

When shooting in "EVF Only" the playback of image should be on the LCD, not playback on the EVF (who reviews images in the EVF, regardless of shooting mode?!)

Opps...Re: When shooting in "EVF Only" the playback of image should be on the LCD, not playback on the EVF (who reviews images in the EVF, regardless of shooting mode?!)...that should have referenced the pressing of "Menu"....which should bring up "Menu" on the LCD....image playback from EVF only does in fact play on the LCD.

As to the "get a video camera" argument, not trying to be hostile, but its so tired. Everyone else has strong video offerings, Fuji will quickly fade to irrelevant if it ceases to improve its video capabilities. You do realize Fuji sells more cameras if it appeals to a wider range of shooters, right? 

 

I own 2 XT2's a the 10-24, 18-55, 16-55, 50-140, 55-200, 23/1.4 and 56/1.2 - if it didn't have great 4k video I'd still be shooting with the A7rII and A6300. I know a few other XT2 shooters that would not own the camera if it didn't have its current video capabilities. I loved the stills from the Xpro2, but it was never something I would consider because of its video.

 

Besides the exposure aids and Flog are a simple FW fix, the camera already has the capabilities built in, they just aren't functional.

 

Cheers

 

 

I just don't understand! If one is actually truly interested in video, buy a dedicated video camera! Let manufacturers build the best still camera they can. It's like buying a car and expecting it to seat 12, buy the bus.

 

 

I agree why not just get video camera?

 

Just as Trek of Joy said it above. For my part - i just dont want a dedicated video camera plus a dedicated still camera to lug around. There is the cost and weight of to different bodys an probably different lenses because of a different mount. Not a strong argument to not include video features other manufactures already have..

 

It seems, that they release a professional cinema zoom lense in x-mount.. means they are interested in the video market.

Most important for me would be to further improve AF, its really snappy when focusing on vertical lines but hunting much more when focusing on horizontal lines. Would be great if it worked as fast as the vertical ones.

 

Second one would be to have a silent mode shortcut. For now you have to turn off several option to get silent.

    • 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.
