One of the target cameras “FUJIFILM X100VI”
On April 25th (Thursday), Fujifilm released the latest firmware for its mirrorless cameras “X-H2,” “X-T5,” and “X-S20,” and its integrated lens digital camera “X100VI.”
The common update content is enhanced collaboration with the smartphone app “FUJIFILM XApp.” Supports RAW image transfer.
In “X-H2”, “X-T5”, and “X-S20”, AF tracking performance in AF-C mode has been improved. When used in combination with a wide-angle lens, the rare phenomenon in which AF focus and distance indicators would vary has been improved.
Similarly, the three models have added a “wide/tracking” function for video shooting. When using AF-S, the camera automatically selects the subject, and when combined with AF-C mode, it automatically tracks the subject.
X-H2 (Ver.4.00)
