Red diode

[Justyna]

Hi! I am a beginner in using Fuji XT30. I noticed that when I take a picture, catch focus, green diode is blinking, I take a photo a then a red diode blinks fast twice. Is it ok? I read in the manual that red diode means lens error or memory card error but everything was assembled correctly.

Welcome to the forum.

Are you able to try a different lens and / or a different SD  card?

The blinking green indicator light is normal once you are able to get focus and keep the shutter half pressed, it will keep blinking until you either take the shot or release the shutter button.

The red blinking light, as you have read is not normal. If your images are all nicely in focus when you move them over to the computer, then things get tricky. The images are being saved on the card, so you might just be getting a warning that the card is worn and should be replaced. If the images are fuzzier than they should be for the given shooting conditions, then maybe the lens is having troubles.

So, if you can, try different lenses and cards to see if the troubles continue.

How “old” is the camera?
