Well, Fuji really wanted to give all X camera owners a glorious day 🙂
There is a software update available for everyone:
- 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.
- 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. Change of aperture display for zoom lenses – Display of aperture value when zooming with the shutter button pressed halfway will become same as the display when zooming without the shutter button pressed.

_ _ _ Some fixes and improvements also for the X-M1, X-A1 and XQ1. And if you own the Instax Share SP-1 printer, you can now send images directly via WiFi to this little printer without having to send it first to your iPhone. If you own the best sellers in the X-lineup, X-T1 and the X-E2, then you still have to continue to upload your images to your smartphone first and from there send it to the printer. X-M1 ver. 1.20 / X-A1 ver. 1.20
- 1. Addition of compatibility with “instax SHARE SP-1? – Images can be directly transferred to the “SP-1? from a camera and then printed.

Not all X cameras 🙂 no mention of X-10/20 for example – just makes a point that Fuji sometimes jumps the gun on their releases – yes they do listen to customers and I am glad they are making software/firmware updates to improve their products but some should have not been needed if they did a more comprehensive product testing with real users – Sony tends to do the same – but a bit better
like the RX100 – users always want a tilt-able LCD now days – so why was that not a part of the original RX100 – I can see sometimes the technology was not there – but Sony for example released the RX100m2 around the time when the Panasonic LF1 was released with a small EVF in a tiny body –
So now three releases of the RX100 – and the hot-shoe – no one is going to put an external flash on such a small body or some large external Mic – and their external EVF was just way to large for that small body and way to costly –
So I often wonder how much user feedback they consider –
