X-T1, X-T2, & X-T3 and SELF-TIMER

[tc46wine]

Fuji needs to correct the long-standing firmware blunder in the X-T1, X-T2, and X-T3. Namely, the cameras reset the self-timer EACH time the cameras go to sleep or are turned off. This is a major pain for tripod shooters.  Fuji could easily correct this firmware blunder by providing a menu option for the self-timer to RESET or NO RESET (e.g., like Sony).  Come on, Fuji, let's fix this blunder.

For you, it is a “blunder”. For others, it is a design choice. But OK, after going to sleep I would say it could stay switched on. Let us ask Fuji politely to be so kind to consider our suggestion. They are unlikely to read it here, though.

I would also love to see the option as to whether to reset or not.

This is an annoyance for me too. The only way around this is to keep the camera from sleeping which just wastes battery power unnecessarily.
