Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware Update 4.01 Released – Rollback to Previous Version. Fujifilm GFX, X-Pro2 and X-H1 Firmware Postponed

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware Update

The latest major firmware update 4.00 for Fujifilm X-T2 has introduced quite some bugs, and evidently Fujifilm needs a bit more time to fix them all.

Hence, just half a second ago, Fujifilm released Fujifilm X-T2 firmware update 4.01, which basically re-uploads the older bug free firmare ver.3.00 (no slow motion, F-log & Co), as well a public apology (full press text below).

2 days ago we rumored that Fujifilm is working on a bug fix firmware update. Today’s rollback firmware confirms the rumor. Here are the bugs Fujifilm is working to solve:

  1. When RAW files, which were taken by X-T2 (before firmware ver.4.00), are converted in camera (ver.4.00) or by “FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO”, they are not converted properly.
  2. When pressing the shutter button halfway under certain conditions, the live view can flicker.
  3. In rare cases, a hang-up can occur.

Thanks to Fujifilm for quickly delivering this transitional solution and we look forward to re-upload the bug-free Kaizen firmware soon.

Fujifilm X-T2 Bug Fix Firmware Coming

Fujifilm X-T2 Bug Fix Firmware

The Fujifilm X-T2 recently got a major 4.00 firmware udpate, that introduced lots of new features.

However, shortly after the release, the FujiRumors community started reporting about several bugs in dedicated “Bug Report” articles here on FujiRumors.

As you know, Fujifilm reads us with great care, and they took note of the different bug reports you guys made.

Now I hear from trusted sources, that they are working on a bug fix firmware.

Also, it has been reported to me (thanks), that some posts on social media seem to be confident this bug fix will come within a week. All I can say at this stage is that I am not sure about it. The firmware will be out only when all bugs are fixed, and not before. It might happen in a week, or even later. I honestly think not even Fujifilm knows at this stage when exactly this will happen.

Simply stay tuned on FujiRumors, and I will let you know in the very same second the firmware is available for download.

have a GREAT Day,

Fujifilm Reads You

As you know, FujiRumors is Fujifilm’s reference website for Fuji X and GFX online customer feedback  (I mean, even Fujifilm’s top manager Toshihisa Iida “loves” FujiRumors, not to talk that Fujifilm also uses our polls in private meetings ;) ).

This is no surprise, since here on FR, for example, we can collect 10,000 poll votes in just 3 days and in 2017 we had a total of 45,261 comments (124 comments a day).

Your massive feedback simply can’t be ignored by Fujifilm.

So thanks to every single one of you, who reads FR, votes the polls and comments.

Feel free to keep it up :)

Newly Developed AI Image Processing “Sees in the Dark”. See Extreme Fujifilm X-T2 Low Light Recovery

 Magic Image Processing?

Image quality is determied mostly by 3 things: sensor, lenses and image processing.

However, we often underestimate the power of image processing.

For sure Fujifilm believes in the power of the imaging processor. In fact, I think to remember Fujifilm saying a few years ago, that the processing engine is responsible for at least 30% of the final image quality.

But this might change one day.

In fact, a team of researchers of the University of Illinois has developed a new image processing technique based on artificial Intelligence that promises to “see in the dark“.

The researchers write:

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00: First Looks, New Features Test and Follow Up on Possible External Monitor Recording Bug

So the Fujifilm X-T2 firmware 4.00 is out since a few days now, and we can now find more and more people enjoying the new features and sharing their testings on the web.

You will find a selection of X-T2 firmware 4.00 testings down below.

But first, a mandatory update to a possible bug we reported here. The issue is that when shooting F-log with an external monitor plugged in via HDMI, the X-T2 shows it is recording onto the SD-card, but in fact it is not.

Now Josh uploaded part 2 of the video, and he shows the different settings he used. A bug? Or maybe something wrong with the settings? Feel free to leave your feedback in the comments.

And here is more feedback and testing.

Fujifilm X-T2 Kaizen Firmware – The Day After the Big Party – Bug Reports Anyone?

Josh Lewis Youtube – Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00 Major Flaw. Basically when shooting F-log with an external monitor plugged in via HDMI, the X-T2 shows it is recording onto the SD-card, but in fact it is not. Can anyone duplicate the issue or maybe there is some camera setting to change?

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware – The Day After

Yesterday it was another huge Kaizen firmware day, this time for Fujifilm X-T2 owners, who basically could download a complete new camera for free.

If you haven’t seen it already, then make sure to go back to the original post, which got massive comments.

The upgrade for the Fujifilm X-T2 was so big, that some Fujifilm X-H1 owners were even a bit annoyed by it, since Fujifilm now brought the X-T2 almost on par with the brand new X-H1 (besides IBIS, 200 mbps and other minor things). But overall the feedback was mostly very enthusiastic.

Firmware Bugs Report

However, the FR-community asked me to launch a “bugs report” article… and here it is.

This feedback will be good for Fujifilm, who, as you know, reads us with greatest care, but also for us mere mortal X-shooters, because we can see if firmware 4.00 has introduced some bugs.

Also, maybe some out there, who are not yet familiar with the new features, could consider bugs some things that are actually wrong settings in the camera, and you guys can eventually help those of us, who are setting the camera wrong.

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00 First Looks, What SONY Thinks About Firmware Updates and Kaizen Makes LOTS of Sense

Fujifilm X-T2 FW 4.00 is Out

If you follow FujiRumors also on Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter (and also allowed browser push notifications!!!), you will have received notification about the new firmware 4.00 for Fujifilm X-T2 about half a second after Fujifilm made it officially available for donwload.

You can download the new firmware here.

Does it Make Sense? – Part 2 :)

In case you missed it, make sure to check out our previous post about it and the huge discussion we are having there.

Of course the “it makes no sense” in my previous article is in part a provocation and surely ironic… but it’s also a bit of a reminder, that we should not take for granted what Fujifilm is doing. These updates cost money and upgrading old cameras means current customers are less likely to buy the latest and greatest Fujifilm gear.

But of course there is also the other side of the medal.

Fujifilm Kaizen firmware updates create brand loyalty and might even attract customers from other brands, who don’t get nearly as much firmware love as Fujifilm X and GFX shooters.

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00 New Features Guide

Fujifilm just published the Fujifilm X-T2 new features guide for firmware 4.00 (English version – select your language).

The firmware itself has been released a few hours ago and we reported (and discussed a lot) about it here.

Fujifilm X-T2 Kaizen Firmware 4.00 Officially Available… and This Makes NO Sense, FUJI! :)

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00

Fujifilm just released the final and official Fujifilm X-T2 firmware ver. 4.00, and it brings new features such as focus bracketing, internal F-log, 120 fps slow motion and more, as well as improvements such as faster autofocus in low light.

Definitely one of Fujifilm’s notorious and much-loved Kaizen updates. So don’t wait any further and download your new X-T2 camera… for free.

No Eterna? Shoot F-Log and then use the Eterna LUT file, which is available for free.

This makes No Sense, FUJI!!!!

Of course it makes no sense for Fujifilm to update the “old” X-T2 and bring it almost to the level of the brand new Fujifilm X-H1, since X-T2 owners will now have fewer reasons to upgrade to the X-H1.

Also, it makes no sense to massively improve a camera, the X-T2, that will be replaced very soon by the Fujifilm X-T3, which we have shared already many specs here on FR and will be announced shortly before photokina in September 2018.

Firmware updates are economically speaking a loss business for Fujifilm. They cost lots of money and extend life span of old products, which consequentially means people will keep their old gear longer and do not upgrade to the “latest and greatest“.

It happened to me, with the Fujifilm X-T1, that Fujifilm kept up improving so many times, that I simply sitcked with it, despite the X-T2, X-Pro2, X100F, X-T20 and all the other “better” cameras that followed… at least until the Fujifilm X-E3 came along… a temptation too big for me to resist.

So kudos to Fujifilm for consistently making the wrong thing and delivering us customers firmware updates. Many other companies simply force people to buy the newest camera to get the latest features (and make more money doing so).

In a world, where Apple released firmware updates that slowed down terribly my iPhone SE in order to force me to buy their latest model, it’s good to know that there is a company out there, Fujifilm, that actually thinks at customer support… and happiness… by improving their products over the years via free firmware updates.

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00 Download File Leaked at Fujifilm Cina – Full List of Features but DO NOT DOWNLOAD

Fujifilm X-T2 Firmware 4.00

As you know, Fujifilm said they will release a firmware update for the Fujifilm X-T2, GFX, X-Pro2 and X-H1 in May.

Now Fujifilm China has made the firmware file ver. 4.00 available for download here.

We DO NOT RECOMMEND to upgrade your X-T2 until it is available at Fujifilm’s global site here, which currently still shows firmware ver. 3.00.

It looks like somebody at Fujifilm China has pushed the “publish” button too early.

Do NOT upgrade because:

  • Fujifilm could find a last second bug before the official release, and hence fix the bug before the official launch
  • If you download and install the Chinese X-T2 ver. 4.00 now, and if Fujifilm really finds a last second bug and delays firmware 4.00, once the official ver. 4.00 will be out, your camera could have problems to upgrade to the “official” ver. 4.00, since there could be a conflict and your X-T2 will say that firmware 4.00 is already installed.
  • Wait… please wait… it can’t be long anymore… must be a matter of a few days

I do share the information here on FujiRumors about the Chinese firmware leak, because it includes the full list of features the X-T2 will get with firmware ver. 4.00.
