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!

    • Years ago I carried my Canon film cameras hyperfocused, but now with Fuji X equipment the autofocus works so well hyperfocusing is a thing of the past. I have a Fuji XF 14 mm f/2.8, one of the older lenses in the line, and it has depth of field and focus distance marks (and an unusual clutch to put the lens into manual versus automatic focusing mode). But I've never even tried hyperfocusing it. None of my other lenses have the markings for this. Could this be a non-issue?
    • Hi All, Purchasing xs20 in 2025 is a wise decision? Fujifilm launched offers to their most of the products in last few months, so many of the photo enthusiast are planning to use this opportunity. But the below rumors are still in the internet and no one addressing it properly.  I hope this forum can answer, how they feel about xs20 in 2025.  1. XS20 users still facing the over heating issue after upgrading to the latest firmware and shooting outside during hot weather is disaster due to overheating.  2. Over heating occurs during the videography, thats understandable, overheating is a serious concerns during the photography, navigating through the menus, simulations. 3. This camera is not suitable for those who lives in hot climate.
    • It would be helpful for the OP to indicate what imaging software as well as the OS (Win/Mac) they are using. We are assuming it is Lightroom Classic. If it LrC, there is an option in the settings/preferences > Presets > Raw Defaults to choose "Camera Settings", which will apply whatever settings were set on the camera when the image was taken to the image you see on the computer screen.
    • I would like to know what photos with 50000 ISO give, with the Z6 it is more or less correct then pass to post processing and it disappears, I have no idea what this can give with Fuji
    • Bonsoir, Merci le retour d'information. Concernant la publication en anglais ok je le ferai avec Google traduction, néanmoins tout ce qui est publié sur votre forum est en français. J'aimerais comprendre 😂
