Hi everyone, hopefully there is is someone out there that has experienced this before me and has a solution

I've recently purchased a Camera Foundry Cineback in an effort to streamline my setup a bit for video recording. Before I was using my XH2s and a Tascam Portacapture x6 with their own internal power sources but with the Cineback I'm able to connect the two devices to the same battery via USB-C. My problem is discovering that when both the XH2s and the X6 are plugged into that shared USB power source, I get a clicking/popping noise on the recording and headphone output from the XH2s. The output from the Tascam is clean on both the headphone out and the actual line output I'm using the feed the XH2s. This isn't necessarily confined to the Cineback device either. I have a USB power supply that plugs into the wall with dual USB-C outputs and I get the same audio issue when connecting the Tascam and Fuji to run off that power souce. If I use two different USB power supplies, either a second "wall wart" or running one from the Cineback source and the other from the wall, I have no issues. I've also tried replacing my Tascam recorder with a Zoom F6 to see if there was an issue with the Tascam device, but I get the same problem with the Zoom F6. Is this an issue with my XH2s? Some sort of ground loop issue? Any help would be appreciated!

    • The short answer is no but if X Raw Studio noise reduction doesn’t give you the results you like why not process them with another raw processor? You could then apply noise reduction together with whatever other processing you want to do.
    • Hello, I've been a Fuji user for a few years with various XT cameras...I'm thinking of getting an X-Pro 2 camera even though it's late in the game...I'm wondering if the frame lines in the OVF are set for a few specific focal lengths or if they change with new focal length lenses coming out now. I recently got a Viltrox 27mm lens and in the info I see online I haven't seen anything related to that focal length when it comes to the framelines. I plan to use that lens a lot with the XP2...if I get it. Does anyone know anything about this? Thank you for any help.
    • Hello,   During my recent trip i used my new X-S20 to take photos. I wasn't really familiar with the camera and it was my first camera and the first ~200-300 photos were taken by mistake with 6400 iso, even during the day. I saw ISO 6400 in camera, but i thought that was the max ISO, not constant. I did save RAW files with the intention to use XRAW studio from Fujifilm to play with different settings. My question is, is it possible to use a third party program to apply noise reduction to RAW files and then save them again as RAW files and continue with using them with XRAW studio? I know i can apply noise reduction with XRAW studio settings but from what i read, other programs are better. Or maybe you know some other way to save those photos?, i really liked how they turned out and i am a little dissapointed with that mistake..
    • Well done! p.s. Welcome to the forum.
    • I think reassigning the exposure compensation dial a good start.  The 520 page online manual should be condensed along with the number of setting options. Maybe they could have multiple firmware options for the X-E5; a pro-version, a photo enthusiasts version and a point and shoot version.  I love my X-E5 photographs but as a typical senior, with declining cognitive skills, I’m sorry say that I find the current singular version unnecessarily challenging.
