Agreed! The walk-through the menus was perfect.

You’re welcome!

how were the results? I’m getting mine next week

@@coleb7644 beautiful pics. I’m still learning the ropes (a long way to go) but if I can get good result as a complete newbie I imagine someone with skill will be able to get pretty special pics

👏

👍

Oliver White thanks for watching!

I set up my camera for manual exposure. So if you don’t know the basics of manual exposure then set your exposure dials to auto settings

Thanks for watching, Jerry!

You’re welcome’

I’m glad!

buggs2001 im sorry about that! What settings did you have questions about? I’d happy to share my reasoning

The settings do not guarantee good exposure as my setting are tailored for manual exposure

@@Reggiebphoto Might wanna put a disclaimer at the start of the video about what you said above...unless you were going for the M. Night Shyamalan ending...surprise all your photos will be under exposed after watching my 23 min video!

Awesome I’m glad to hesr

saves the step of having to process a raw on the camera prior to sending it to the phone :)

Reggie Ballesteros Do you have issues with the iPhone Fuji app and transferring files? Mine keeps looking for the camera. I finally got it to transfer one at a time but it was a huge pain.

@@gaprofitt Yeah they're phone apps are from the stone age

Yeah small affects just jpeg

🙌🏽

You can rewatch it or download my settings config file

Is that bad?

Elias Pap I tend to shoot wide open, so iso 640 Would be overexposed. Also for raws what it does is change the tone curve. I use a customized tone curve for my edit. I prefer dr 100 percent.

As far as im aware there are no DR options on RAW arnt there?!

+Donald Boys I’m glad to hear!!

@@Reggiebphoto x100v arrived yesterday! I've now owned the original black, the s, the f and now the v.

John make sure you’re not on silent mode

@@Reggiebphoto where is the silent mode?

I explain why in some other videos. But it’s hard to just cover everything and why all in one video 😬

Thanks for the kind words

Change to a different drive mode

Thanks!

Because I don’t have to grade at all using classic chrome

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jK57Y7eau9PGhWg.html I’ve updated my settings since then

@@Reggiebphoto Thank you so much for such a speedy reply you are a gent thank you .. on my way to watch it now thanks again :)

Sweet !

This is just a settings breakdown of what I use. It’s not operation manual or settings explanation of every camera function unfortunately . I don’t use flash on my x100v so I didn’t cover it.

Hi, if you press on the Q button on the top right of the cam, you will see the quick setting for the flash there. Just tap it then some other options will come out like TTL etc.

🙌

My settings didn’t turn on the histogram on photo review. Just in the lcd/Evf when shooting.

Jonathan O what do you mean?

@@Reggiebphoto Like it's good to see what settings you use but as someone who doesn't know what most of them actually do, I'm just as lost as I was before the video

Gotcha. Well the manual is the best resource for understanding what each of them do. Fuji does a great job explaining each setting

Reggie Ballesteros feel that. not blaming you for omitting it but feel there could be a market for it, myself included

Maybe someone will make a video one day like thst. Sorry

The histogram and highlight warning is based on the image settings. I’ve experimented that pro negative standard with -2 highlights and 0 shadows allows me to have the highlight warning be at the same point of clipping for my raw file in Lightroom. The 0 shadows allows me to to not introduce unneeded underexposure. I’m very aware that image settings don’t affect the raws. But the in camera metering and exposure guides ARE based on the jpeg settings unfortunately. So with experimentation you can calibrate the shadow clipping and highlight clipping you are comfortable with in the raw processor of to choice and apply the appropriate image setting that reflects these thresholds. Let me know if this makes sense

To further illustrate, Let’s say you have highlight warnings on. Let’s imagine With classic chrome (high contrast look) the highlights blink at 1/500s. On eterna (low contrast look) the highlights blink at 1/250s. But when you important the raw into Lightroom, you find that true highlight clipping happens at 1/400s. I’ve calibrated my highlight and shadow image settings so that when using pro neg std, the highlight warning blinks at shutter speeds less than 1/400s, and stops blinking above 1/400s. This is a calibrated and calculated image quality setting that’s aligned with the clipping points of raw files in Lightroom.

Nice!!

Glad it was helpful. And appreciate the feedback

The link is in the description for my settings file

Thank you, I have downloaded it and plugged in my camera. I have downloaded acquire. It says pc shoot mode is incorrect. Change pc shoot mood to USB auto at the set up connection setting menu of camera I cannot find these options! And restore camera settings on the acquire app are greyed out. Any ideas anyone?! Thank you x

@@ifyouseekpoppy I just battled this out myself. On the X100V go to Menu->Wrench->Connection Setting->PC Connection Mode and select USB RAW CONV./BACKUP RESTORE. At this point the XAcquire Backup and Restore settings options were enabled/no longer grayed out.

Thanks for helping!

exposure settings to match the scene you’re shooting in

set iso to c and shutter speed to t.

Will be making a best settings for xs10 soon!

@@Reggiebphoto oh that's good. Will be waiting 😍👍

Be sure to remind me lol

@@Reggiebphoto sure!! 😁 I'll remind you tomorrow 🤭😁

Hi there, just here to remind you 😁😁😁. More power to you 🔥😁

I didn’t set the aperture ring to auto.

Reggie Ballesteros timestamp 20:30

@@shoyosushiroll9530 R. Night Ballesteros ending bro...have you watched the Village? that's the approach he was going for.

Yup yup. I use a 3rd party lens cap. I forgot what size

Abubakr Braaji you have to install x acquire and select restore from backup and choose the file i provided

You press the center of the joystick

i don't relaly know as i shoot in manual with exposure preview on (locking exposure is not something i enable)

Cool

Iso is set to c and ss is set to t. Use the front and rear dials to control ss and iso

@@Reggiebphoto Thanks. I picked this up from your video. How do you set ISO to C and SS to T?

Pull up on the shutter speed dial and You twist iso dial to c. Twist the shutter speed dial to t.

@@Reggiebphoto Thanks very much!

Did it work?

👍🏽

You have to set it to a function button or touch gesture

Reggie Ballesteros Thanks. Trying out your presets a bit. Could you give examples of when you use each? Base vs warm for example.

It depends on the lighting. Usually window light in my home is a good time to use the warm. But when the indoor lights are turned on in my home, the cooler base version works better. In general classic chrome is cool temp. So the warm is just for when I think it’s too cool and want to warm up skin tones

just the jpeg. on the raw, if you apply an aspect other than 3:2, it will import with the crop applied, but if you reset the crop in your raw editor it will revert back to the oringal 3:2 at the original resolution

@@Reggiebphoto Thank you so much man! That makes so much sense. Subbed. Cheers!!

Thanks for the sub!

Unfortunately I don’t have any experience on mac. Did you try reading the x-acquire instructions?

@@Reggiebphoto NP, I'm sure I can figure this out. Thanks for the response and the great video, much appreciated,

Hope you get it sorted!

Ihor Lymar dr affects just JPEGs. And I typically edit the raws for every photo

Have you seen this video? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e6hlYJapqJuVnGg.html

When it’s on for a while it will do that . It’s the power saving mode

@@Reggiebphoto Thanks Reggie 🙏🏽

It’s in the video description to get the config file

Fiky Adjidarmo to be quite honest I don’t know haha.

DOF scale pixel is allegedly more accurate if you want the max sharpness. According to the manual.

@@dentontay why even have the option at all

Who knows

Isaac Ramirez fujis auto iso is known to be unreliable. I personally shoot in manual

ISO going to max AND shutterspeed dropping below is because there is not enough light to shoot at 1/200 s. The camera will go slower than your desired shutterspeed. It's best to set max ISO to the highest value. The camera won't go there necessarily but it can help keep the SS fast enough. Pal2Tec has a really good video explaining Auto ISO on Fujifilm cameras: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z8t1ZNRyvdTYops.html

@@Reggiebphoto yep

Appreciate the feedback! Will try to slow the pace down on the next goaround. At least you can rewatch and pause :)

You probably turned on clarity by accident. Set clarity to 0 and you should be good. Don’t be so quick to blame my settings lol.

hahaha ofcourse not...thanks bud@@Reggiebphoto

Did that fix it?

yes thank u ;-) @@Reggiebphoto

Hey reggie, have a question about the film simulations, so i customized and edit the film simulations, when i press the q button, i can choose from the customized film simulation, but what about the other default film simulations? Can i still use that and disregard the custom film simulation?im just confused on what will the camera choose…the custom or the film simulations?

Go into the drive setting

if you hold down the command dial it opens up a menu to customize what the front and rear command dial does.

@@Reggiebphoto my apologies I set it up wrong. Got it!! Thanks buddy

No worries

Flogs native iso is 640. You cant go below 640

One thing missing on the 100V is the viewfinder button!! I choose to set the Function 1 button to View Mode. At times, I like to have the option of operating my camera using only the eye sensor/viewfinder only option. This prevents the back of my camera from lighting up (to be more discrete in a performance for instance). Also, for this type of operation it is important to set Image Display to OFF! This way, I can always hit playback at my discretion for a quick look of my last image as needed.

Ah great point!

ND filter on/off !! LOVE that filter

It’s a switch at the top

You have to charge enough and give clients enough value to backup that price

pat keen nonpartiuclsr reason. Just trying something new. In my long videos I like to put a sound track

What do my eyes have to do with a camera?

hello!

I shoot in raw, and edit and export that file for high res use. The small jpeg is just for social media.

No, are you?
