XT-1 Firmware Should go to Xpro-1 too


Recommended Posts

Regarding the X-Pro, by far the biggest problem for me is the weak AF by less contrast subjects and low light conditions. I would appreciate if FujiFilm would provide again an AF firmware update for the X-Pro. Faster is not really necessary, but an AF that works better in less favorable light conditions. Especially now it seems to takes a longer time before there will be a successor!

It's a PRO, Fuji!!

Personally, I think the X-Pro1's AF is quite good. I've used the X-T1 professionally for a year, and also have an X100T so I'm familiar with the state of the art cameras, but the difference isn't all the internet forums might have you believe. I feel the real differences that affect me are the lack of "Preview exposure plus WB" (X-Pro1 just previews exposure) and the poor focus peaking in low light. In fact, the low light focus peaking is similar to the X100T upon release, before it was improved by FW update.

 

I think that when Fuji released the FW3.40 upgrade they only included some aspects of the release that went to the more modern cameras not because they wanted to differentiate the newer models, but because the processors of the older cameras just wouldn't be able to handle some of the changes. This doesn't explain why things such as classic chrome weren't included, but I can readily believe that things such as preview exposure plus WB may have been too much for the camera to handle without affecting screen refresh rate etc.

    • Because the sensor assembly is moved electrmagnetically. When there is no power it is essentially free moving.

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
