Great video the thumbrest was one I invested in at the start, quality and great design but not cheap!😉 Love the look of the leather half case, use them on my xpro1’s but the Fuji ones I have do not have a battery door so it’s a real pain, having to remove the case each time so I don’t use them now!🥺
There's some really great aftermarket gear out there. And people are prepared to pay. My personal favourite (no longer made) were the JB camera design grips. Made of wood and metal. Absolutely beautiful.
Hi there, Sorry for the delay in replying - thankyou for your question. The thumb rest flicks out (it has a hinge on the thumb rest which is designed from lensmate) so you can gain access to the dials and back button auto focus with no issue. It is the good design that allows this unlike other fixed thumb rests that you can buy from eBay and the like - I have used it in everyday circumstance and find it really helpful. I think this is the reason these thumb rests cost so much compared to others as it is the little things that make the difference.
Lol. It's just not Fuji cameras. There are SO many badly designed cameras. I think the ones I like the most are Pentax cameras and film cameras from decades ago.

Do thumb rest get in the way of back button auto focus?

Fuji cameras are so bad, you need accessories to fix them, but it never works.
