Fuji recommends to keep OIS turned on even with a tripod for XF 16-80mm f/4 and XF 200mm f/2 lenses
by Leave a Comment
It’s been a pretty common thing since the early days of Nikon’s VR and Canon’s IS, that you turn stabilisation off in lenses when using a tripod. As technology has progressed, turning off the stabilisation hasn’t been important. Fuji, though, has long said that IBIS should be turned off in cameras when shooting on a tripod, nothing has really been said about their lenses. At least, not until now.
The folks at Fuji Rumors spotted in the manuals for the Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4 and Fujinon XF 200mm f/2 lenses that users are specifically advised to keep stabilisation turned on all the time, even when using a tripod.
Fujifilm issues service advisory over GFX 100 shutter lock mechanism
by 1 Comment
Fujifilm has issued a service advisory for the recently announced Fuji GFX 100, citing issues with the “Lock” function on the side shutter located on the vertical grip. According to the advisory, some GFX 100 bodies have an issue which prevents the lock mechanism from functioning, to prevent accidental shots being taken when that button is not in use.
Included in the service advisory is a range of serial numbers for potentially affected bodies. I say potentially as Fuji note that some bodies have already had the issue addressed before being sold and are not affected. So they say to contact your local Fuji support/service centre to confirm.

When you talk about photography gear online, one thing is inevitable. Somebody will pipe up talking about how “the gear doesn’t matter, a good photographer can make a great image with a potato!”. Well, Linus and Brandon over at Linus Tech Tips decided to put this to the test.
Brandon is LTT’s DP. He has a lot of practical experience with a lot of gear in a lot of shooting scenarios. Linus is… Well, he’s Linus. He knows his tech, but isn’t exactly an expert when it comes to shooting photographs. In this video, Linus takes up arms with a Fuji GFX 50R vs Brandon with a Google Pixel 3 smartphone to see if skill or gear (or luck) is most important.

Fujifilm patents a pair of “virtual command dials” for an analogue/digital hybrid UI
by 2 Comments
The folks over at Fuji Rumors have come across a Fujifilm patent showing a compact camera with two rear dials that synchronise with a top LCD in order to create a pair of virtual dials that can be assigned to different camera functions. Unfortunately, they didn’t link to the actual patent, so we can’t dig any deeper into Fuji’s thought process behind it, but we can speculate.
