Fujifilm X-T1: Firmware Update V1.10 - Thank you for Listening


One of the reasons I like about using Fujifilm cameras is the fact that the Japanese company care about, and seem to listen to, their customers.  

On the 17th June I wrote a BLOG about my first two months, and 10,000 frames, with the X-T1.  One of my dislikes was the positioning and the operation of the video button, which was too easily pressed by accident, locking up the camera while it switched to video mode. I know I am not alone in this and it was great to see that yesterday Fujifilm announced Firmware update V1.10 for the X-T1, which included a fix for this problem. 

Instead of the video function starting immediately the button is pressed, there is now a delay where the photographer has to keep pressing the button.  It means that I am less likely to operate the video function by accident from now on and for me this is a good solution.  

My only concern is that to end a video recording there is also a slight delay as the button needs to be pressed for longer.  A minor concern and something I am sure I will get used to when recording videos on the X-T1 in future.

The imrpovements that V1.10 has introduced are -


  1. Addition of compatibility with "XF18-135mmF3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR" To ensure that autofocus performs as expected, upgrade the firmware for the camera.
  2. Improvement of "Exposure compensation/exposure indicator" in EVF Values are added to the scales of the indicator for better visibility.
  3. Improvement of Movie-record button operability.  To avoid an accidental movie shooting, the delayed time will become longer between the moment you press the button and a movie shooting starts or ends.
  4. The phenomenon is fixed that images are not recorded with the set interval when "INTERVAL" in "INTERVAL TIMER SHOOTING" is set to 5 sec or less. In this case, the setting of "IMAGE DISP." in "SCREEN SET-UP" will change to "OFF" automatically.
