Fujifilm has this week released a new firmware update for its Fujifilm X-E2 mirrorless camera that brings with it a number of new features, tweaks, and performance enhancements for users to enjoy.
The latest Fujifilm X-E2 update has reduced the lag time of the X-T1′s electronic viewfinder (EVF) to the X-E2 down to just 0.005 seconds. This significant improvement ensures that photographers can capture moments with greater precision and accuracy, making the X-E2 even more competitive in the market.
Enhanced Focus Peaking and Button Customization
Other features included in this latest Fujifilm X-E2 update have added red or blue to the selectable colors in focus peaking. Focus peaking is a crucial feature for manual focus photographers, as it highlights the edges of the subject in focus, making it easier to achieve sharp images. The addition of red and blue options provides users with more flexibility in different lighting conditions, ensuring that the focus peaking is visible regardless of the background.
Additionally, the update has increased options for the camera’s Fn (function) and AE/AF buttons. This enhancement allows photographers to customize their camera settings more extensively, tailoring the camera’s functionality to their specific needs. For instance, users can now assign frequently used settings or functions to these buttons, making it quicker and easier to access them during a shoot.
Suppressed Flash Option and Improved Performance
Another notable feature of the new firmware update is the suppressed flash option. This feature keeps the flash from firing when the subject is in low light conditions, which can be particularly useful in situations where a flash might be disruptive or unwanted, such as during a concert or in a museum. By preventing the flash from firing, photographers can capture more natural-looking images without drawing attention to themselves.
Moreover, the update brings several performance enhancements that improve the overall user experience. These enhancements include faster processing speeds, improved battery life, and more efficient image stabilization. Together, these improvements make the Fujifilm X-E2 a more reliable and versatile camera for both amateur and professional photographers.
“With the addition of the new firmware, the FUJIFILM X-E2 continues on its promise to deliver picture quality that rivals full-frame cameras with high definition image capture, Fujifilm’s legendary color reproduction, and category-leading speed.”
