Kaizen Again? Fuji X-T1 will get another Firmware update this year! (AS) - Which New Features would you like to get?


Recommended Posts

you can put it to the lowest of volume and you would hear very little, indeed the best is electronic shutter.

 

Frankly speaking adding extra functions to cater for this special needs would make the camera even more complex than it already is making it less user friendly.

But you can already do back button focussing - at least I do all the time. Move the camera to manual focus (via the front three position lever and then use the AF-L button to focus, take you finger off, recompose and shoot. For me this works exactly the same as back button focus on a Nikon.

1. Manual Lens settings as a function button option. This is possible only with the Fuji M-Mount adapter button yet, but it would be useful when using other adapters as well.

2. Deleting photos directly on review. When taking a photo, one has to switch to play mode first in order to delete it.

SANTA BABY.....

 

The Ability to NAME the "Q" custom settings would be fantastic.  Instead of C1, I should be able to name it PORT,  LAND instead of C2, etc.  I want to be able to name them.  Give me at least four characters, but I'll take 3 just to have this option available to me.  And I'd love to see the same name displayed IN the VF, or LCD when shooting.

 

+/- 5 to 7 exposure brackets would be lovely to have.

I would like Bluetooth built into the camera and an iPhone app that allows me to view / set all settings on the camera and remotely trigger (one or more) foto's.  You could then easily integrate the features of apps like triggertrap but without the inconvenient cable.  You could even see app makers provide innovative features in apps if fuji were to open it to developers.  Ideally the picture taken would instantly be sent to the iPhone for review allowing pinch-zoom checking of focus, composition, etc

 

This would make it so much easier to shoot on a tri-pod and make numerous bulky often incompatible cables, triggers and apps superfluous.  The app could then take care of e.g taking 9 bracked foto's rather than having to rely on it being supported in camera firmware.  

 

BTW I say bluetooth and not wifi as I don't want to go through the song and dance as well as the battery drain of turning the camera into a poorly working hotspot as is now the case.

I think they do Wifi because the range is much longer. Bluetooth is a little limited.

 

I would like to see them use the Wifi to check for firmware updates for lenses and the camera.

Important to me:

- Highlight clipping warnings / histogram in after shot preview

- Possibility to move the focus point with scroll wheels

- Non-"pumping" & more reliable AF-C

- Possibility to put (almost) any setting to Q-menu (case in point for me: after shot preview display time)

- Don't turn off self timer when shutting the camera down (super annoying with tripod work & trying to conserve battery)

- Allow more reduced NR than -2

- The water colour / waxing issues...

- Clicking function buttons that open menus with 2-3 options should rotate when function button is clicked several times rather than open a menu that requires 4-way controller or wheels to select the option

 

Nice to have:

- Open image playback from function buttons (I just can't get used to that left placed playback button)

- 24 hour clock

- Show amount of images taken in playback

    • I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.
    • I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results. 
    • Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.
    • Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
