Fujifilm X-T1 Graphite Silver Thread


i was a user of the black xt1 and i found out that the rubber grip on the back wears off real fast, not sure if they have improved the rubber on the graphite silver
 

The new offer doesnt seem very attractive compared to the last one... Does the 18mm worth more than 35mm?

the 18mm is one of the cheapest lens in the XF lineup.. i sold mine away at about $300+
 

Hi xavier
May I know whether the strap shown in your photo is the "Graphite Silver Edition Leather Strap" which is part of the pre-order package.
Thank you.

Hi there, the strap in the picture is bought separately.
 

I just got my XT1 Graphite Silver yesterday. Been a Nikon and Canon DSLR user. Finally made the jump to mirrorless.

Anyway, I am wondering. Firmware shows 2.0 and I have yet to check things out extensively. But some new features seem to be missing. For example, movie mode is supposedly available in 25fps and 50fps but they are not there. However, electronic shutter up to 1/32,000 is there.

Is there going to be another firmware update to bring all the new features on board?

GS already has the latest firmware, there wouldn't be an update so soon.

Update due in December.

Exciting firmware update coming December 2014 (X-T1 Graphite Silver and X-T1 Black)
Fujifilm will release a free, comprehensive firmware update in December 2014 specifically for the new FUJIFILM X-T1 Graphite Silver and the original X-T1 Black that will give users exciting new features and controls to dramatically enhance their X-T1 shooting experience, including:

AF Area direct selection – Users can select the focus area with the 4-way controller, without pressing the Fn Key.
Function replacement for the AE-L/AF-L buttons - The currently locked AE-L/AF-L button function will now be interchangeable, depending on the user's preference.
Focus Area size variability during MF – Users will be able to change the focus area in Manual mode during One Push AF with the AF-L button.
Macro Mode direct selection – Users will be able to directly turn ON or OFF the Macro function in Auto Focus mode to expand the distance measurement range to the short-distance range. This will be possible without accessing the pop-up menu screen.
Q Menu customization - The update will render the items and layout of the Q Menu, used for quick access of frequently-used items, changeable to the user's preference.
Video frame rate selection - In addition to the existing 60fps and 30fps selections, 50fps and 25fps, as well as a 24fps selection will become available to users. 50fps and 25fps allow video editing in the PAL region, such as Europe and elsewhere, without converting the frame rate. The 24fps will offer movie-like video capture and play back.
Video manual shooting – Users will be able to select ISO sensitivity prior to shooting videos, as well as adjusting the aperture and shutter speed during video shooting.
Phase Detection AF support for One Push AF - With One Push AF, operated by pressing the AF-L button during manual focusing, the update will enable Phase Detection AF with quicker focusing speeds.
Metering area focus area interlocking - The update will enable users to interlock the AF area position with the metering area when spot metering is selected.
Expansion of the Program Shift setting area - The update will enable the current Program Shift, in which the low-speed side is 1/4 second, to be shifted to a maximum of 4 seconds.

Cool... Dec update is a worthy to look forward to.
 

One more question.

Why my ISO does not go 100 when I choose L or more than 6400 when I choose H1 or H2? When I set to L, it will show ISO 200 in yellow instead. When I take two different photos in ISO200 and L, the two images have the same shutter speed, aperture and ISO 200.

I have double checked and I am in JPEG only mode.
 

Ok I just figured it out myself. I was in electronic shutter mode. ISO can only go 100 or above 6400 in mechanical shutter mode.
 

are they selling this for body only? or must come with kit lens?

They have a GSilver Body alone set , and one with kit lens too. Can check Fujifilm FB page for current RRP and street's slightly lower
 

Does the x-t1 GS sell with kit lens?

I bought my XT-1 GS last month through the pre-order promotion, and bought the XF18-55 kit lens through the Clubsnap marketplace. More worth it this way as the 18-55 in brand-new / mint condition is only going for around $350, compared to its retail price. It is an excellent lens!
 

Firmware updates now available for the
FUJIFILM X-T1, FUJIFILM X-T1 Graphite Silver Edition


Scheduled release: 18 Dec 2014.

The final list is even longer than previously announced.

Can't wait for this firmware update today! It's like receiving an early Christmas present. Particularly looking forward to the direct selection of focus point using the 4-way keypad.
