Quick thoughts/troubleshooting:[/size]

1. It works![/size]2. Make sure to turn on sync in Creative Cloud app (link for help on this on Adobe exchange site)[/size]3. CC app takes care of download and install into LR. Slick![/size]4. Before connecting X-T1 to computer, go to Set-Up Menu 3, and change USB Mode to "Auto"[/size]Some folks are complaining about the $29 price. I'm fine with it. A relatively small set of users need this functionality, so I'm willing to pay a bit for the engineering time/energy to make this feature available. The free firmware updates, which continually improve my X-T1 in everyday use (2 major updates in the 6 months I've had the camera) are where I'd prefer engineering effort focused.[/size]

Thanks +Fujifilm and Adobe Lightroom [/size]engineering teams for working together on this![/size]

Hi mwsladek, are you able to view scene in Lightroom before capturing?

Tethered Capture for Mac users:

 

I downloaded the Fuji tether shooting plugin for Mac from Adobe Addons and installed it to Lightroom 6.1 (not CC) via Adobe Extension CC. 

 

Connected the camera  (in the Fuji menu set the USB Mode to PC Shoot Auto) via USB to my Laptop, fired up LR then File > Tethered Capture > Start Tethered Capture. Took a couple of seconds to recognize the Fuji X-T1 and when it did, worked like a charm.

 

PS. The plugin costs $ 29 which is kind of a drag.

Hi,

 

I do have some problems regarding the installation....

Using Mac 10.9., Lightroom 5. I bought the plug in, and it seems I got an Tether zxp file. But I can't install it to Lightroom.

Creative Cloud is up to date (got another adobe program via cloud).

Adobe wouldn't help, Fuji tried their best.

When clicking on the zxp the Extenstion manager opens, but only shows my Photoshop, no Lightroom is indicated.

When going on (german) "Zusatzmodul-Manager"/Lightroom 5- the zxp file can't be selected.

Anybody an idea what I do wrong?

Thanks!

Wow, I am confused. I have everything installed, and am getting a minibar that shows me exposure info, and gives me a shutter button. Click it, and camera fires. But no files load to the computer, and I have no live view. Any thoughts?

You would only get live-view on your computer if you bought HS-V5, not the LR add-on

OK here it is. You don't need
I just got done installing everything on my 27 in IMac El Capitan.
and my PC and my x-t1 tethers correctly on both. I used
This
Adobe Extension Manager | Download Adobe Extension Manager CC
Adobe Add-ons For Mac
Adobe Add-ons For Windows
Download and install extension manager cc first, you do not need HS-V5
Not sure I explained it good enough, but

Pro2 can't tether. T1 is the only Fuji camera which can do tethered shooting, currently. (And it doesn't work anywhere near well enough.)

 

I do expect the T2 will support tethering a little better, and the Pro2 should then get an update to support tethering, too. But I still wouldn't expect either camera to do it well. If tethering is a vital part of your workflow, you need to look at Canon, Nikon, or Sony. Consider tethering on a Fuji camera as a bonus, not a proper feature.

    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side! 
    • I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !
    • First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
