Hello all,

I was just wondering if there were any geotaggers available for the Fuji X cameras? Something like the Solmeta is what I’m looking for. Or if there is a way to connect my camera to my BadElf GPS.

I know that I can connect the camera to my phone; but that has been spotty at best. Plus it doesn’t have the reliability of something like the Solmeta that I have on my Nikon.

Thanks in advance!

Interesting question as that is the main feature I miss on my Fuji X cameras over my Canon 7D which I used with a Canon GP-E2 geotagger. As far as I know there is no comparable device for the X-series. I tried the Fuji App but it is flaky at best so is not really an option for me. So what I do is use my iPhone with an App called Geotag Photos 2 which creates a GPX route of my journey and then you can use something like Lightroom to link the two together and it then places the geo data in the Metadata. I have the App set to record with a minimal position change of 10 yards which works well for me. It's obviously more of a hassle than having a dedicated geotagger but it works for me. And although it is running continuously (as it records the route) it doesn't use a huge amount of battery. I carry a small power-bank but have never needed to use it whilst using this App.

Hope this helps!

      Non zero shutter count on new camera

      By abmet · Posted

      Like jerryy said lithium batteries are shipped partially charged. Do you have ibis turned on, and is it set to continuous or shooting only?  If continuous that could be the noise you hear.   I’d also contact Amazon on the shutter count and missing wall plug.

      Normally, lithium batteries need some charge to keep them healthy. Try to never let one of these drop to zero charge level, that can cause it to short circuit or be permanently disabled. Have you not contacted or heard back from Amazon yet? I think your troubles will disappear once you get in touch with them.

      An update on this , I got an email my from regional fujifilm support saying that it should be zero, so now I’m not sure what to think.. I sent them email again asking them if this qc claim can be true, but no response yet. A lot of posts on internet say that their cameras came with some photos taken due to qc, and also ChatGPT tells me fujifilm support is wrong … I wonder if I should contact fujifilm global support.   A couple more questions that trouble me: Camera came with battery at around 75% is this normal? Shouldn’t it be 0? Also I hear a constant low humming /fan like noise from camera. It stops when I enter photo viewing mode. Thanks

      How to remove battery door

      By K2MIT · Posted

      I forgot how to remove the battery door so I can attach the grip.  I downloaded the manual for camera and grip and I can’t find the directions.  I don’t want to break it.
