Free upgrades for the X-Pro2, X-T2, X100F and X-T20 will soon be released. These updates will provide support for “FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO”, improve studio flash controller usability compatibility, introduce a new AF tracking algorithm and include other functional and operational updates for the ever evolving X Series mirrorless camera range.
FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Kenji Sukeno) is delighted to announce it will release free firmware updates for the FUJIFILM X-Pro2, FUJIFILM X-T2, FUJIFILM X100F and FUJIFILM X-T20 X Series mirrorless digital cameras. These updates will be released in November and December 2017 and are a result of requests from users for improving usability and adding new functions. Installing these firmware updates will add new support for the FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO software which allows the user to connect the camera to a computer via USB cable for developing raw files in camera (X-Pro2, X-T2, X100F). The new firmware will also improve third party studio flash controller usability (X-Pro2, X-T2, X100F) and will dramatically improve the AF-C tracking algorithm in zone and tracking AF mode (X-Pro2, X-T2). It will add 4K video support, a computer tethering function (X-Pro2) and enhance the touch panel operation when using the EVF (X-T20).
The firmware updates are due as follows:
Firmware Version - due late November : X-T2, X-T20
Firmware Version - due late December : X-Pro2, X100F
The update adds 4K video using the X Series’ famous Film Simulation modes. You can input audio from an external microphone. (Excluding HDMI output for recording)
After connecting a camera to a computer, the compatible software (*1) will enable users to transfer images taken with the camera to the computer and save them in a specified folder, or to control the camera from the computer.
Thanks to the newly developed image recognition algorithm, the update enhances AF-C to track moving subjects twice as fast as previous firmware(*2). In addition, the update also enhances tracking to be able to capture up to 50% smaller moving subjects than before.
Once connecting a camera to a computer via USB cable, the “FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO” enables users to convert RAW files with X Processor Pro. The first batch processing will also be available. The “FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO” can be downloaded from the FUJIFILM website for free.
The upgrade allows users to shoot with compatible third party studio flash in high speed sync. or TTL mode via their radio controllers.
Once connecting a camera to a computer via USB cable, the “FUJIFILM X Acquire” allows users to backup/restore camera settings to/from a file. Copying all camera settings from one camera to another is available.
