Need support for Fuji X-T3 #27

Open gn64 opened 5 years ago

gn64 commented 5 years ago

I have tried v1.8 beta 64 on Fuji X-T3. X-T3 was recognized and image preview worked fine, but exposure adjustment with knob did'nt work. I tried adjusting the exposure on the camera, connected the VIEW and start time lapse. At first time-lapse worked, but when it come to changing exposure, stopped with an error.

It seems like a similar problem occurs in libgphoto2.(gphoto/libgphoto2#312)

Yes, there is a problem with it not working correctly after entering liveview. I am working to get this solved as quickly as possible. In the meantime, if you don't use liveview, it should be working well (disconnect and reconnect the camera after using liveview if you do). Everything else should be working well and hopefully I can find the source of this issue quickly (aiming for this week yet).

Hi @elijahparker,

I've got some trouble with v1.8 beta65 in conjunction with my Fuji X-T3, too. Each timelapse (auto ramping day to night) works as expected in the beginning but stops with an error at around 55+ frames. The error reads like this:

An error occurred during capture. This could mean that the camera body is not supported or possibly an issue with the cable disconnecting. The time.lapse will attempt to continue anyway. System message: -110

I've tried different cables, so this doesn't seem to be the issue here. Any idea?

Best os

Strange -- I just did a couple 800+ frame time-lapses last week with beta65 and the X-T3 and it was working well. Would you be able to send a log report from the clip that stopped around 55 frames? That will hopefully specifically show what went wrong at that point. Just go to Time-lapse Clips on the VIEW, select the clip, the press the menu (lower-right) button and select "Send log for review". Thanks!

Thanks for the swift reply! I've just uploaded the requested logs (2 logs from abrupted time-lapse clips plus one generic one from the settings menu).

Thanks!

In order to shed some more light:

From what I understand by ‚reading‘ the logs: the camera seems to be in RAW+JPG(fine) mode.. I’m 100% sure I’ve set it up to solely shoot RAW but, and this might be another issue, the VIEW seems to tinker with the cameras settings once connected. Another indication: I‘ve set focus guide to ‚peaking - red (low)‘ for manual focus but once the VIEW is connected that setting defaults to ‚std‘. I hope that helps!
