Film Simulation Bracketing Not Working as Expected

[Visualista]

I set my GFX 100 II camera to Film Simuation Bracketing for the following three simulations: Standard Pro Negative, Acros + green filter, Monochrome + green filter. I found I have to depress the shutter three times to get the three simulations. I thought it would be enough to depress the shutter once and the camera would take care of processing the raw file into three JPEGs with the three simulations. Isn't that how it is supposed to work?

I am shooting RAW + JPEG Fine. My camera body firmware version is 2.21.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Just tried it on my X-T4 and that's how it works on that. 

Silly question but you did remember to set the camera to bracket mode?

[Visualista]

Yes, I did. Both with the Drive button and in the menu when choosing the three film simulations. Does the Fujifilm GFX 100 II work differently than the X-series cameras?

The manual says it works the same as X series. "Each time the shutter is released, the camera takes one shot and processes it to create copies with different film simulation settings, chosen using A SHOOTING SETTING > FILM SIMULATION BKT."

The three steps I went through on the X-T4 were:

1. Go into Menu, Drive Setting, BKT Setting, Film Simulation BKT and select the three simulations.

2. Go back into Menu, Drive Setting, BKT Setting, BKT Select, Film Simulation BKT.

3. Switch the camera to BKT mode 

 

Then it took a single image and generated the three images. 

If you're doing that and it's not working I'm not sure what could be wrong. 

 

Does it work on other bracketing modes?

Well, switching it to AE BKT, keeping the shutter depressed while it shot 3 pictures, and then switching the DRIVE button back to FILM SIMULATION BKT fixed the issue.

My menu is apparently slightly different from the X-camera series menu. (I wish I still had my X-H2 to compare.) There is no separate DRIVE SETTING option under the SHOOTING SETTING.

But all is well that ends well. Thank you for your help!
