In this book, X-Pert Corner columnist and workshop mentor Rico Pfirstinger teaches you all about the capabilities of the Fujifilm X series lineup of cameras, which he’s discovered through years of in-depth research, experience, and experimentation. No matter which X series camera you own—whether it be the X-T3, X-H1, X-T2, X-Pro2, X100F, X-T20, X-E3, GFX, or any other Fuji X series camera—Rico cuts to the chase and provides a plethora of tips and practical instructions not found in user manuals or anywhere else. With this knowleEAe, you will be able to take full advantage of your X series camera. The Fujifilm X series boasts amazing features, but some users may require an adjustment period if they are new to these cameras—even photographers who have been lifetime DSLR shooters. This guide will help you to quickly feel comfortable using your camera so that you can achieve excellent results. Rico reveals many hidden features, functions, and procedures, so photographers of every level—beginners, enthusiasts, and experienced pros—will learn new and better ways to use their Fuji X series camera to its full potential. Beyond beneficial practices for all X series shooters, Rico also covers advanced concepts, such as the capabilities of Fujifilm's ISOless sensors with Dual Conversion Gain, and offers solutions for common issues, such as inaccurate focus or RAW conversion artifacts. Topics covered include: Firmware upgrades, lens issues, OIS and IBIS Menus shortcuts, Custom Settings, My Menu, Quick Menu, and Fn buttons Mirrorless exposure metering Maximizing dynamic range ISOless photography Autofocus settings, challenges, and strategies Film simulations, white balance, and JPEG settings RAW conversion (internal and external) Flash photography And much more… Review: Worth the read, even if you have the other Tips and Tricks... - I hesitated to buy this book only because I already own the author's "Tips and Tricks" guide to the X100F and X-T2, and I feared most of the information would be duplicative. In truth, much of the information is unavoidably the same. However, since I have several different models in the Fuji mirrorless line, I found there is value in having all of the information in one book, and this compilation is a good value. There is also enough new material based on firmware updates, etc to make it worth the price to me. The book is very readable and I have picked up on some useful features and explanations that I did not know prior to purchase. The author does a great job on all his Fuji books in my opinion, and this is no exception. The cost of the Kindle edition is not more than a decent lunch - well worth it for a resource I will continue to use. Review: Covers the XT3 - Very helpful in understanding the camera beyond the manual.

A brilliant resource.
I'm getting back into photography after a break of many years. Bought the Fujifilm X-T30... boy cameras are complicated these days! Menus, sub menus, sub sub menus... holy cow! This book has been a Godsend for me. In fact, reading it I thought 'Man I've really got my moneys worth here' only to find I was just a third of the way through it. 45% now and it just gets better. 10 stars out of five for me.

Very well organized and presented ! !
I got this book after buying my first Fuji camera.. The book is very well organized and really gets you through all the detail in these modern cameras.. I found the manual that came with the camera to be less than useful. This book is a big help...

Great book, poor shipping!
The book is full of good information and well written, but it did not look new due to the beating it suffered in the plastic shipping bag. I expected better with a $23 book...

Great insight
A must read for Fuji system users. I have been using Fuji for several years but many things became clear after reading this book. Highly recommended

Nice alternative or augment to the owner's manual
If you are someone that like to figure things out with just some practical guidance rather than reading the manual cover to cover, this is the book to get for your X series. Using it with an X-T2 I found the examples and tips to be extremely helpful. The writing is easy to follow and the e-book seems to have all of the content properly formatted. Definitely a 'Buy".

Imprescindible
Contiene no sólo información sobre la configuración de la cámara, sino sobre todo el sistema Fuji X entero (incluso habla sobre el formato medio). Trata en profundidad muchos temas, algunos más obvios como el ISO, la profundidad de campo, los modos P,M,A y S, junto a otros más complejos, como enfoque, el rango dinámico, el ISO automático, IBIS vs OIS, diferentes tipos de lentes y su uso...En fin, un libro valiosísimo y bien explicado, es como tener los temas más interesantes debatidos en los foros, recopilados y opinados con criterio. Cubre todas las cámaras hasta la X-T100 y X-T3 pero no más allá (la X-Pro3, no, por ejemplo). Posiblemente la mejor fuente de información sobre cámaras Fuji reunida en un libro.

Excellent ouvrage qui n'attend qu'un traducteur passionné
Les conseils sont vraiment pertinents , voir très techniques mais toujours suffisamment expliqués pour être mis en oeuvre. C'est le complément utile et nécessaire d'une notice constructeur peu pratique . Datant de 2017 , toujours intéressant , même si une mise à jour, attendu, serai la bienvenue
