In todays video, we talk about how to use Aperture Priority with your fujifilm X-T30. This Tutorial is intended for beginners who are just starting to learn photography. #XT30
Excellent video on how to set aperture priority. I have xt30 ii and kit lens and you explained precisely how to set aperture priority on this. Thank you
Fabulous video, I’ve had my XT20 a while now, didn’t really know to much about AP, you are so easy to understand and follow, that you have helped me take a massive step further in understanding more about my camera, thank you, no need for me to go else where, you have explained it all 👌
Thank you for the video. I picked up an xt30 last week with the 15 to 55 kit lens and I'm slowly working my way around on how it works. Each day I learn something new and have to do yet another little tweak. Bidding on a 50 mm f2. Wish me luck 🙂
Brother....🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲u are definitely underrated☹☹☹, like all the talented ppl on youtube, very precise💘💘🎯🎯💯💯, to the point, very helpful.....great content in short time and thats the essence of these platforms, and u r the only person whome i will watch without skipping if u'll make a longer video...but definitely expecting more videos on photography from u...about lighting and all😁😁👍👍...just do a whole tutorial on xt30...i hv it too...😊
Hi! Thanks for your video, i really appreciate your work and your clarity in the exposition. I'm having some trouble using Aperture Priority: when I put my camera in AUTO 1 ISO mood (I put default ISO 160, ISO max 3200 and min shutter speed 1/60) I don't know why my camera continues to shoot with shutter speed lower than 1/60 (for example 1/40 or 1/20 which is definitely too long and my photos appears blurred). If you could help me I would be so grateful.
Can you do a video on what’s the best setup a xt3 for sports indoor/outdoor. I’m not getting good hit rates. This is for high school sports. Thanks brother.
Very helpful Wai Lam - Thanks for this. However when in manual mode on the stock lens (18-55) the aperture settings are NOT moving from my front or rear dials, only the lens ring. It’s not working like yours is, what am I missing?
Hi Wai, thanks for a great video! I have a fuji with the lens xf 18-55. Is it any idea to also buy the xc 15-45? My thinking is the small size of the xc and to have it attached to the camera for casual shooting. Do you see any other benefits to own both and do you reccomend to own both?
I really want to use aperture priority mode but the thing is that every picture I take it’s too much overexposed and I don’t really enjoy it than. I don’t got also a solution for that by now
How can I get the Aperture numbers to show on my LCD screen? What are the settings I should use in order for me to see F numbers such as F 2.8 or F8 on my screen when changing it while taking pictures?
Do some fugi cameras allow you to set aperture either through the lense dial or through the rear (or front) dial? In such a case does the camera dial override the lense dial setting?
Hi, great videos! They help a lot. I have the xt30 and the 18-55 kitlens. My frontdial does not have the function to switch to aperture. It only changes the iso and exposure if that is set to C. I have shutterdial to A and the aperture switched to manual. If i press the front dial, it wont switch to aperture. I have watched your ideo about the menu setting. Everything is set the same. What am I missing?
For a lens like the 18-55mm, you need to do something different. First set the lens to A (Auto), not manual. Then go to Menu > Set Up (Wrench icon) > Button/Dial Setting > Aperture Ring Setting (A) > COMMAND. Now you will be able to change aperture with the dail
Hi Wai Lam, just got my X-T30 a few days ago. going through setting up procedures. I notice that just the "Back" and "Cancel" options on the bottom of the screen are not responding. touch Screen has been set to ON. advise please?
Hi Wai! Thank you for sharing! I’m new to the xt30 and just got it the other day but I’m having some issues figuring out if I got a defect. I put my camera on aperture priority and tried to control the aperture through turning the lens (Fuji 35mm f1.4). But nothing happened on the screen when I changed it. Is that a defect on the camera body or the lens or both? or did I accidentally press something I wasn’t suppose to? I would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you!
hi..can u help me? i just bought viltrox 85mm, unfortunately the lens does'nt have aperture ring. So how i can change the apeture? currently i just use that len on my xt1..
Hi! I’m having the same problem. I’ve tried in s/cl/ch or even in single or continuous focus. The camera just seems to ignore the minimum shutter speed setting
Hi Wai, would you recommend the 23mm f2 over the 18-55 kit lens for videos? I have the XT30 body only and don't know which one I should get as a first lens, I'm more into videos than stills
I would recommend the 18-55 because it more versatile. You can treat it like a prime lens when using it at 18mm F2.8. Or you can go to F4 and use it like a 18-55 F4 constant aperture. And the OIS is super useful for low light situations and hand held video shooting.
Wai Lam Thanks alot. Do you think there is a difference in sharpness for photos , giving that primes usually have better image quality then zoom lenses
Excellent video on how to set aperture priority. I have xt30 ii and kit lens and you explained precisely how to set aperture priority on this. Thank you
The tutorial was easy to understand and follow. And it was an excellent presentation.
😂 5 year's ago, I've just purchased mine, brilliant vids I'm learning so much thanks.
Finally someone teaching me how set the aperture!
Wow! These are amazing. I got my XT30 2 days ago and I've already learned so much. Thank you Wai.
Your video Presentation was 👌: Sound advice on the Exposure Modes, especially for newcomers to the Fujifilm camera systems.

This series is soooo helpful, thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much. I’m new to Fuji, and the XT-30 is a steep learning curve. Accessible info, awesome tutorial 👌🏻

Thank you so much for this very helpful video.. Please make a video on slow motion recording on xt30..
Can you do a video on what’s the best setup a xt3 for sports indoor/outdoor. I’m not getting good hit rates. This is for high school sports. Thanks brother.
I will try to put something together for that.
Wai Lam that would be greatly appreciated brother. Thanks in advance.

Can u please show how to change aperture on xt100. I'm actually using aperture and fstop interchangeably
cheers great stuff

Bro i got a xt30 yesterday....I am very novice in photography...what should be my settings for street and landscape photography like iso, aperture?
thank you a lot really 👌👍
Very helpful. What is the kit lense for the xt30?
The one on the thumbnail of this video is the 23mm f2.0. But the most common kit lens is the 15-45 or 18-55. The 18-55mm being the better choice.
@@WaiYingLam The lense that I see most often with it is the 15-45, but if I got the xt30 I think I would just buy the body and get the 18-55.
Hi I'am stuck at F3.6 how can I set it up to F2.8? I'am using a 18-55 kit lens. Thanks!
Hi Wai! Thank you for sharing! I’m new to the xt30 and just got it the other day but I’m having some issues figuring out if I got a defect.

I would suggest you reset the camera to factory defaults and see if the problem continues
hi..can u help me? i just bought viltrox 85mm, unfortunately the lens does'nt have aperture ring. So how i can change the apeture? currently i just use that len on my xt1..
I dont have a xt1 anymore but somewhere in the menu setting, you should be able to configure one of the dials for aperture control
Hai wai even after setting minimum shutter speed of 1/60 in aperture priority its still changing my shutter speed.what to do??
Hi, I have the same problem. Have you solve it? I'm still trying
Hi! I’m having the same problem. I’ve tried in s/cl/ch or even in single or continuous focus. The camera just seems to ignore the minimum shutter speed setting

Wai Lam Thanks alot. Do you think there is a difference in sharpness for photos , giving that primes usually have better image quality then zoom lenses
There is for some but honestly you would be had press to notice it unless you are specifically looking for it.
Thanks 🌹
