Canon EF to Fujifilm GFX ver. 1.06 – Mac / Windows

1. Change the format of firmware version number, no more alphabet in version number.
2. Fixed LCD flashing issue for some lenses when failed in initialization.
3. Fixed the aperture range information error for zooming lenses

We recently shared a detailed review about the CanonEF to Fujifilm GFX Steelsring smart adapter.

Earlier today also Fringer released a firmware udpate for its EF/FX smart adapter.

As basically every new camera when it hits the market, also the Fujifilm X-H1 has some bugs.

Usually Fujifilm fixes these via firmware updates, which costs Fujifilm money to develop.

So it seems they are now going a smarter way, the Sony solution, and they simply kick out a successor immediatly, that fixes those bugs. :)

Obviously this is just a typo spotted by photographyblog. But since we are here already, let us know what you would like to see in a Fujifilm X-H2.

Back in late January, Fringer released the Canon EF to Fujifilm X smart adapter, which sold out within a few hours. They now expect new stock in late March / beginning of April.

But you can pre-order it at fringeradapter now, and the next batch will be delivere on a first comes first basis.

In the meantime, Fringer keeps up demonstrating the capabilities of its adapter.

This time we see how fast the autofocus is with the Sigma 150-600 on the Fujifilm X-T2. Looks really good with the new Firmware 1.40 :)

You can see the video at fringer’s youtube.

A few days ago, we reported about a bug with the Lightroom tethering plug-in.

Today Adobe released an update, which is very likely fixing the bug. You might have to reinstall the App again or update via creative cloud.
