Hi Everyone,

 

I would really like to get the LumoPro 180 Flash and would like to know if anyone has enjoyed this combination the the Fuji Xt-1?

 

Then secondly I'm not yet comfortable with finding both a wireless trigger, nor shoe cord, but would ideally like both. Not interested in Pocket Wizards at that price. Any suggestions as to what I can use or what would or not work with my above combination?

 

Many thanks for your time!

Stefan

Hi again!

 

I have found what seems to be an excellent solve! Very small and beautiful radio triggers for small cameras. Option at $39 with a second receiver option at $55.

I think my mind is made up on this one. :)

I got the option with two receivers, just one drawback there - I can't get stable sync at 1/180, the black bar already appears at this speed, so need to reduce shutter speed to 160 most of the time. But it may be only my units.

So I have three LP180's and yes I do trigger them with PocketWizards - not what you want to hear.

 

But I also have a Wein Pulsar Universal IR trigger (Amazon sells them for just over $60) and it works a treat in almost all conditions.  The main reason I bought that was for my X100T which can sync at 1/1000s and the PW's can't keep up at that speed.

 

But the Wein Pulsar trigger works great with the X-T1 too.

    • Some elements in (autofocus) lenses are „floating“, so I guess what you are experiencing is normal.
    • How do I turn off the electronic shutter in the menu - the option is grayed out and I cannot select the mechanical option
    • I'm having trouble finding a way to attach a right-angle viewfinder to the Fuji X-H1 camera. Does anyone have experience with how the angle viewfinder behaves in combination with the EVF? Is the Minolta frame diameter of the right angle viewfinder suitable for attaching to the Fuji XH1 (or XT1, 2, 3, 5)? Does anyone have knowledge about which eyepiece is compatible with the Fuji X system? Thank you in advance for any assistance and information you can provide.    
    • I purchased a gently used XF 80mm f/2.8 aspherical macro for my X-T5. Not being familiar with this lens but having had experience with the Leica T mount 60mm macro and Canon and Zeiss macros, I was surprised that I felt what might be best described as a loose lens element that shifted when I tilted the lens, even before being mounted to the camera. In manual focus mode, the lens is fine, but there is a distinct “wobble” when the lens is in autofocus mode. I reported this to the company (I bought it from KEH), and they agreed this was odd and accepted it back for a full refund. I just got a replacement lens and the same thing is happening. I’ve never had an experience in which I feel a lens element loose inside the housing. Is this normal? Should I return it (again)?
    • Old post but hope this can help. You have to make sure that exp. comp. is set to zero in P, S or A mode before you go in to manual mode. If the comp is set to, let say +5, and this is of the range for the settings in manual mode, twisting the comp dial (left dial) want do any changes.
