X-E2s question about saving Fn button settings as a custom set

Hi folks,

 

I have two related questions regarding the X-E2s.

 

1. It seems that for shooting movies, the only way to do so is to assign one of the function buttons since there does not seem to be a menu option or other way to toggle movies on and off.

...

2. I was hoping that the function key assignment would get saved with the custom sets but it does not seem to be the case and the function key assignments are shared by all custom sets, in other words are independent of the custom sets.

Is there any way of not using the function keys to toggle the movie-on/off operation? Is this the case with other fuji cameras as well: T1, Pro2, T20, T2...?

 

Thanks,

 

Ranjan

It's same behavior across Fuji X cameras, you can only use functional button to on/off Movie recording

 

X-T1 Movie button initially was dedicated to do that. Only in later FW updates that button become function (with some delay though).

 

And yes, Fuji "custom setting" set only stores limited amount of settings mostly related to image tweaks. I'd better name it "custom film settings" for less confusion : )

Another brands like Nikon/Panasonic/etc. can store full set of overall camera settings in their "custom set", which I'd name "custom camera settings".

      Photos on Angelbird AV Pro SX 160GB vs SE 512GB

      By Tomek666 · Posted

      So I ended up getting and X-H2 over the X-T5 because of a good deal that came up.  Needing to buy a card, I needed to figure out,  what is the real impact of a card's speed for photos?   In particular, I'm going to test how shooting at 15 FPS will differ between: Angelbird - AV PRO CFexpress B SE - 512 GB and Angelbird AV PRO CFexpress SX - 160 GB. How many shots can I get off before buffer fills, and how long does it take for the buffer to clear?    MOP: X-H2 Factory rest, card formated, no lens (body cap on), performance boost on, manual exposure, mechanical SS @ 1/8000, IS off, Shoting RAW Compressed Lossless with only one card in. Held shutter release till buffer filled, and used stop watch to see how long for buffer to clear. Subtracted two frames from total taken as that's how long it takes me to release the trigger once the buffer is full. Repeat 2x for sanity check.   ***TEST RESULTS***   ~~~64GB Lexar Pro SD 150MB/s~~~ 75 shots to fill buffer, 36 Seconds to clear it   ~~~Angelbird AV Pro SX 160GB~~~ 251 shots to fill buffer, 5 Seconds to clear it   .~~~Angelbird AV Pro SE 512GB~~~ 232 shots to fill buffer, 4 Seconds to clear it     ***Conculsion***   If burst shooting an X-H2 at 15 FPS is your thing, buy the Anglebird 512GB SE for the same price as the 160GB SX.   Below is a shot on X-T2 w/ the Fuji 70-300. I manged to fluke it off with a dead battery by turning the camera off and on again, and squeezing three more shots out (this was the last shot).   Ta for now!

      Have you tried a factory reset? Maybe you changed unintentionally a setting?

      X-s10 with Fujinon 16mm 1.4 autofocus issue

      By Etienne B · Posted

      Hello. I have a x-s10 that I use multiple lenses with. Yesterday I noticed that with the Fujinon 16mm lens I'm having issues auto-focusing. It works on video but not for still images. When I half press the button it focuses a bit then when I release the button it snaps back to the previous focus point. Even though it manages to focus the image is still blurry. Any ideas please. I already did a a major google search and nobody has mentioned this issue. Thanks, Etienne
