XT-1 - EC dial values don't reflect on screen/viewfinder EC indicator

Hello,

Do you know is it possible to somehow recalibrate exposure compensation indicator /dial in XT-1?

When I'm in aperture or shutter priority mode the values on the dial do not reflect the ones on the screen. Let's say I put the dial in +1 position and the indicator on the screen shows 0, when I put it to +2, the indicator shows + 1 ⅓ etc. What is more - sometimes the onscreen indicator will react only after some clicks - when I put -1 ⅓ on the dial and move it towards 0 it reacts only after 6 clicks (6 moves) and shows - ⅓ (the dial is in + ⅔ position).

When I shoot in manual mode the meter seems to work fine but when aperture / shutter / ISO is in the "A" position and the meter changes into the indicator I cannot set it right.

Do you think that is a hardware problem with a dial? Or maybe it can be calibrated through software?

Thank you in advance for any info/help.

Krzysztof

PS I am not 100% sure but I think that these problems started to appear after servicing th camera in FujiFilm service (due to "rubber skin" issues).

      Because the sensor assembly is moved electrmagnetically. When there is no power it is essentially free moving.

      Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

      55 or 80?

      By BIGOAK · Posted

      Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?

      See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.
