Issues with Fuji X-Pro2 and Godox TT350F

Hello all,

 

I'm having some interesting issues with a Fuji X-Pro2 and a Godox TT350F. The flash "works" and perhaps this is "normal" behavior for a third-party flash, but there is a lot of discrepancy with the flash unit mounted in the shoe and the Flash Settings on the camera.

 

1) I can't seem to control Manual exposure with the on-camera controls. When I rotate the rear dial it switches back to the TTL (left side) of the screen. 

2) If I set the Q Menu to M for Flash the flash won't fire, even though the flash unit is set to M. However, if I set it to TTL it does fire the manual flash

3) Cycling through modes on the Flash Unit I can't select MULTI, but can select it in camera. 

 

I'm curious if this is a shoe/flash contact issue or this is "normal" third-party behavior. 


Thanks.

I have found the Godox and Flashpoint system does not work well with my X-E3. I have had best luck with my XT2-N controller  firing the flashes in manual. However I do not get HSS with this setup. I can however get HSS up to 4000 with the Flashpoint  pro unit. Forget TTL it's working in an alternate universe.

Sorry guys, I do not have the same equipment as you do, but to encourage you I want to say that I have no issues whatsoever with my X-T2, Godox XPro-F, AD200, V-862F. Works like a charm. Nick, you wrote “XT2-N”. Was that a typo or are you trying to use the Nikon version on a Fuji ? Kirk, google somewhat, I think you will find a solution for your setup. Cheers, all the best.

      LUT doesn't works on resolve

      By Don Barar · Posted

      Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don

      Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!

      I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !

      First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
