FUJIFILM HAS RELEASED A NEW FIRMWARE UPGRADE FOR THE FUJIFILM X-T10

Pictured: Fujifilm X-T10

Fujifilm has just released a NEW firmware upgrade for it's NEW Fujifilm X-T10. The firmware deals with compatibility issues with Windows 10 & updates will be available for other Fujifilm models by the end of the year. The update also improves Eye Detection AF & Face Detection when used with the NEW Fujifilm XF 90mm f/2 R LM WR, and operation improvements have been made to 'Fn1' button.

Information from Fujifilm's website regarding the update shown below:

The firmware update Ver. 1.01 from Ver. 1.00 incorporates the following issues:

1. Improvement of "EYE DETECTION AF" speed when used with XF90mmF2 R LM WR

"EYE DETECTION AF" speed is improved when used with XF90mmF2 R LM WR in case that "FACE DETECTION" and "EYE DETECTION AF" are ON in "AUTO FOCUS SETTING" of the Shooting Menu.

2. Operational improvement of Fn1 Function button (Default setting : movie shooting)

The shortcut function to Fn1 BUTTON SETTING by pressing the button more than 2 sec. is removed. To avoid accidentally pressing the button when turning the Exposure compensation dial, pressing the button approx. 0.5sec. is required to start the function allocated to the button. This improvement is to avoid unexpected appearance of the SETTING when Fn1 function is needed.

<Note-1>

Functions of Fn2 through Fn7 button remain same.

<Note-2>

Steps to change the setting of Fn1 are same as usual like below.

・Change it in the function(Fn) setting menu appeared by pressing DISP/BACK button for a while.

・Change it through Setup Menu>BUTTON/DIAL SETTING>FUNCTION (Fn) SETTING.

3. Angle difference between jpeg image and jpeg image converted from RAW file

Currently, there is angle difference between jpeg image (including jpeg images converted in a camera) and jpeg image converted from RAW file by RAW FILE CONVERTER EX2.0 etc. The jpeg image angle converted from RAW file is a little bigger.

With this upgrade, the jpeg image angle is matched to one which is converted from RAW file. This symptom happens only when lenses below is used. In case of zoom lenses, this happen in wide-angle side.

　

XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS, XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS Ⅱ, XF18-55mmF2.8-4 R LM OIS,

XF10-24mmF4 R OIS, XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR, XF18-135mmF3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR,

XF18mmF2 R and XF27mmF2.8

4. Support for Windows10

The phenomenon is fixed that images in a camera cannot be transferred to a Windows10 PC via a USB cable.
