  • @davesnow6762
    @davesnow6762 3 года назад +13

    Just want to thank you Omar. You included "shoot without a lens" setting in your camera setup. This got me thinking - as I'd been changing this setting whenever I changed from Fuji lens to older MF lenses ever since I got an adapter. Yesterday, I switched from my 7Artisan lens back to Fuji 27mm and it worked just fine - without having to hunt through menus to change settings. I'd always assumed this would negate the electronic connections on Fuji lenses - I was wrong and this is so liberating. Many thanks to you and your channel.

  • @dpitman85
    @dpitman85 4 года назад +16

    For when I shoot with a flash, I like to keep one of the buttons set to turn the exposure preview off to keep the EVF and screen from being too dim to compose.

    Shoot without card I prefer to turn off. When I gave camera to my mom once, but forgot to put sd card, she did entire day of shooting not knowing that no picture was saved (she isn't an expert in modern cameras and tech etc). I also turn down highlights and shadows. For touch screen I chose timer and RGB histogram (I tend to do long exposures often that's why timer). Yeah, had some fun with film simulation bracketing, although I didn't expect camera to do one jpeg and one raw for each film sim (though it's only for jpegs and one raw).

  • @alejandromedina2349
    @alejandromedina2349 2 года назад +3

    Very useful, thanks. I would definitely add Shooting with no CARD OFF. It would be very unusual to shoot without a card, so this cannot be a default setting.

    • @ogonzilla
      @ogonzilla  4 года назад

      Yes! The dial is default set to punch in. Great Fujifilm feature.

  • @Optidorf
    @Optidorf 4 года назад +4

    Activating the back button focus is crucial for me and I also attribute the function button (the FN button on top of the screen) for the AF-C custom settings. This allows me to modify the autofocus settings for continuous mode on the fly, very handy when photographing wildlife or sports.

  • @K13-X
    @K13-X 3 месяца назад

    I have the front custom button set to the focus assist and the back wheel to control the film sims, the top custom button is set to eye/face on/off and definitely have the touch screen off, nosing the screen is impossible to avoid

  • @timothylinn
    @timothylinn 4 года назад +1

    I've been a back-button focus guy for years and, like you, I shoot most of the time in Manual focus mode using the rear button for AF. (The one labeled AF-L because...OCD) With AF-C, I find it is easier to let the shutter button activate focus. With moving subjects, I want the camera to continue focusing all the way through the process of pressing the shutter.

    • @timothylinn
      @timothylinn 4 года назад

      ​@S Tra I find that when I'm using AF-C, I never take my finger off the focus button so it's easier to half-press the shutter button continuously than keep the AF-L button depressed while also pressing the shutter when I take a shot. If you keep your camera permanently set to AF-C, as I did with my Canon 5D-series bodies, then what I suggested wouldn't make sense. In my experience, Fuji's AF-C isn't nearly as good when used this way.

    I use the front button as my back button because my second finger automatically rests there when shooting and I never have to feel about for a button at the back. I use the AFL button as an alternative playback button for using the camera one-handed.

    Hi Omar! I have the front buttom to activate the Boost mode, it is helpful when I'm shooting in quiet places but suddenly I see something that needs a bit of more power. Also, the front wheel is to finely regulate the shutter speed, and the back one to choose my focus zoom in manual focusing assistance :D

    I went last week to my local camera shop to buy an X-T3 as an upgrade to my X-T20. It turns out someone had been in earlier that day to trade in his X-T4. It didn't fit in his workflow. It had a shutter count of less than 1000. Paid $500 off the retail price and came with an extra battery and the Fujifilm charger. I feel pretty lucky! Thanks for the timely video!

    Love it! Great video. I've just switched from 5Diii to X-T3 after giving up professional photography but still wanting something... meaty. I've been working my way through things and experimenting and so far my biggest gripe is that if I have it set to EVF + eye sensor (to save battery life) that I can't use the LCD to look at the menus - it's driving me nuts. Is there a workaround for this? Other than hitting the 'view mode' button continually to cycle through the options?

    Have you looked into the E-Front Curtain Shutter? I have mine set to EF+M+E as from what I hear, the EF may double the life of the shutter since it is essentially only using the mechanical second curtain to close and it may also make the shutter slightly quieter. Or something like that... I'm still experimenting. Also... The clip at the end... me too, my friend. Me too.

    Great video! Just got my x100v, first digital camera in over 10 years. Question about focus: when I hold the shutter button down halfway it usually goes from blurry to focused back to blurry. I’m sure this is a newbie thing. I’m set to Single mode and set to AF on the right side of the screen. Thanks for any help!

    • @ogonzilla

      It's probably showing you a "depth of field preview." So you'll see the blurry parts of the photograph. Or...sometimes the Fujifilm cameras hunt before they're happy. lol

    Hi Omar,
    I know that FujiFilm camera's are not your first choice professionally. But even so are you able to tell how you experiences are with the FujiFilm Camera Remote app when paired with different fujiFilm camera's. Does that lead to any problems or does the app recognise the camera you have active and paired. I expect to have my second FujiFilm camera some time soon but will never part from my first X-T20 (just like you never will).

    Question for Omar and all: If you were going to Europe for a 2 week trip, and you need to pack light, what lens/lenses would you bring for an xt30? I own the 18-55, the 50-140, and the 12mm Samyang. Do I get the 16-80 and bring just the 1 lens? Do I get the 55-200 and bring 3 lenses? I'm not bringing the 50-140 as it's way too heavy but I also don't want to miss a longer reach. Should I forget a long range lens altogether? The FOMO is killing me.

      I was having a strange issue with that with my x-t20 where the focus point would randomly (it seemed) be scattered all over the place and I'd have to catch it and recenter and swear. Turns out the focus point location via touch screen was on ( I never use the touch screen), and, apparently, even when the screen is off (I use the EVF most of the time) touching the sceen would jump the focus point. Since I use the EVF it might have been my nose some times, or just a finger. Tricky part was that even with screen off it was responding to touch. weird. SEMI RANDOM EDIT: I wish I had the EVF from the X-t3....

    Is there any reason why turning off shutter AF for AF-C?
    I found that I have already been used to shutter AF rather than back button AF in all cases... (except AF during Manual focus mode)

    On boost mode, I mean it sounds good and all, but doesn’t it just max the LCD brightness? I think I read focusing is unchanged so I usually have it off. I’ll just think “Off” is “Smooth” mode

      The manual says better EVF performance and faster AF. I'll take it. :)

      Omar Gonzalez Photography oh I think my eyes need better AF if I missed that fact, boost mode it is!
