Fuji Guys Explain Fujifilm Camera Remote App and How to Fix Connection Issues (Sort of)

 

Fujifilm Camera Remote App

The Fuji Guys published a short video, where they talk about the Fujifilm camera remote App.

They say this video is for those, who download the App for the first time or if you are having any troubles with the App itself.

The issues can happen for example if you updated your smartphone.

In this case, the Fuji Guys recommend to delete the App as well as to delete the pairing registration in your camera menu connection settings.

Then download the Fujifilm Camera Remote App again and pair camera and smartphone again.

When you try to transfer images on your phone, the camera might ask you to start up the Fujifilm camera remote App. If the camera does not connect to the smartphone, click “Change – OK” on the camera.

Why this? Francis says:

because if you use the camera on your iPad and on your iPhone, you need to change the registration for which device is going to be using

Done that, click on “join name of your camera  wifi network” and wait for the camera and phone to connect.

In my experience this works sometimes to get things going, but not always. Sometimes I can try whatever I want, and it does not connect. Usually I fix it by getting a beer, waiting a while, and try again. Sometimes that works!

Anyway, thanks Fujifilm, we appreciate the effort in explaining the issue. But do you want to do really something cool? Well, then check out the Panasonic camera remote App and copy that one 1:1.

Lots of things make me happy in the Fuji world… the App is not one of them.

Fujifilm Managers Talk Film Simulations: Origins, Evolutions, Goals, Misunderstandings, Bold Classic Negative and Much More

The Japanese site dc.watch interviewed Fujifilm manager Kosuke Irie and Shinya Fujiwara.

They talk about film simulations in a lengthy, very detailed and technical way.

All in Japanese, which means we are in the hands of google translate. And sadly this does not always work out well.

I will share a summary for you down below, often just taken as google delivered it.

It will get nerdy… happy reading down below :)

My wish?

It’s hard, but if I’d have to pick one, I’d go for this one. And you?

Will there be even more surprises?

Photokina GAME OVER: Suspended “Until further Notice”

The Photokina team just announced that photokina has been “suspended until further notice”.

Originally, due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Photokina 2020 had been canceled and postponed to May 2022. But apparently there won’t be any photokina in 2022, and probably never again at this point.

I have been to photokina a few times (2016 report here – 2018 report here) and I always hugely enjoyed it. It’s sad to see this show ending. But to me, the error was made when they dropped their 2 years cycle and decided to take place every year in May. It was the wrong answer to a real problem.

Topaz

What is not yet suspended, but won’t last very long, is the following deal:

TOPAZ has just launched a one-time-only mega bundle deal which allows you to save 60%+ on all Topaz Products.

You’ll get DeNoise AI, Gigapixel AI, Sharpen AI, JPEG to RAW AI, Mask AI, Adjust AI, Topaz Studio 2, and Video Enhance AI for just $299 instead of $1,000.

If you are not into video, you can remove Video Enhance AI from the bundle and hence get it all for just $199!

And if you already own at least one if not more Topaz products already, you’ll only pay for what you don’t own – meaning you still get to take advantage of some serious savings and Topaz will extract what you already own.

Check out the Topaz Bundle deal here.

Fuji Guys Switching To Fujifilm Guide (and Finally They Explain it!)

I have given up!

For years, when I went on youtube, I saw people not familiar with the Fuji system complaining that those retro dials are not good and they want to be able to control the settings with the front and rear command dial.

Whenever I noticed those videos, I diligently dropped my comment, suggesting them to read the manual, as they’d find out that they could indeed use their ultra-retro-Fuji just like a DSLR/Sony/etc.

In fact, I consider the Fujifilm interface the most flexible on the market: you like the dials, use them. You don’t like them? Set the camera and ignore the dials.

In my opinion, Fujifilm always missed to clearly explain this massive flexibility, and finally the Fuji Guys did it in their latest video “Making the Transition to Fujifilm“.

Now, if you are a Fujilover, you probably don’t need to watch the video below. But if you are new, then you basically get a rapid user-manual overview… just in video-format.

Well done, dear Fuji Guys. Finally you go over one of the huge misunderstandings I often see floating around: that retro dials are a constraint, whereas they are actually the most flexible tool in any camera: use them if you want, ignore them and go DSLR-alike if you don’t like them.

Now let’s hope our buddy Jared will watch that video too ;)
