| Fujifilm X-T1 |
The eagerly anticipated NEW firmware Version 4 is now available for the Fujifilm X-T1, which absolutely transforms your existing camera into a whole new beast. The improvement to the AF system is beyond belief & also updates some other handling functions.
1. New AF System
(1)Zone and Wide/Tracking modes for effortless capture of
moving subjects The AF System complements the fast and accurate 49-single-point
autofocus system with new Zone and Wide/Tracking modes, which use 77 autofocus
points across a wider area to substantially improve the camera's ability to
capture moving subjects.
(2)Improvement of AF accuracy Single-point AF divides the
focus area into smaller sections to more accurately determine the distance to
the subject for even greater focusing accuracy. The built-in phase detection
pixels have the detection range of 0.5EV, an improvement from the previous
2.5EV, delivering phase detection AF performance that enables fast focusing in
low-light conditions and on low- contrast subjects.
(3)Eye detection AF The firmware update provides Fujifilm's
Eye Detection AF, which automatically detects and focuses on human eyes.The
function allows you to easily focus on the eyes even in difficult conditions.
(4)Auto Macro mode The firmware update introduces the Auto
Macro function, which automatically switches the camera into the Macro mode
while maintaining the conventional AF speed. You no longer have to press the
Macro button to initiate a close-up shot. This update eliminates the Macro
function assigned to the Macro Button, allowing you to assign a different function
to the button. (Just after this update, the function will be assigned to AF
mode selection.)
(5)AF improvement in the Movie mode The optimized algorithm
delivers a more natural and smooth AF action during movie recording.
2. Improvements
(1)Improved Shutter Speed Dial operation When the Shutter
Speed Dial is set to T and the Shutter Type to Mechanical + Electronic, you can
use the command dial to set a full range of exposure times from 30-1/32000sec.
Previously, this was limited to 30-2 seconds. This is particularly useful when
shooting in the portrait orientation with the Vertical Battery Grip VG-XT1
attached.
(2)Exposure Compensation control in Manual You can use the
Exposure Compensation dial to make exposure adjustments while shooting in the
Manual exposure mode with the ISO Auto setting.
(3)Finer lines on the framing grid enhances visibility The
lines on the framing grid, which you can choose to display in the Screen Set-Up
menu, have been made finer making it easier to view the subject.
(4)Name of Silent mode changed to avoid confusion The Silent
Mode has been renamed to "SOUND & FLASH OFF" .
