Fujifilm X-E3 Firmware

Back in October, I told you that Fujifilm will release a new firmware update for real-time geotagging within 2017. Well I was wrong… it came 15 days later ;) . And just as we rumored here, the X-E3 firmware is twice as big as the X-T20 firmware.

1. Auto Geotagging and Date/Time synchronization by Bluetooth pairing
When connecting to Bluetooth, Geotagging and Date/Time information of a camera can be synchronized with the information of a smartphone. “SMARTPHONE SYNC. SETTING” is added in Bluetooth SETTING. *To use this function, the application software “FUJIFILM Camera Remote” needs to be upgrade to the latest version Ver.3.1.0.

2. The phenomenon is fixed that live view blinks on LCD and EVF with face detection and dynamic range 400% setting.

In order to make the X-E3 auto geotagging work properly, you also have to update your remote camera app. The latest version 3.1.0 has been released yesterday here. I have made a super quick intial test and it works. Here is my (ACROS+R) cat geotagged. :)
