Metering Modes of Fujifilm Cameras
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 พ.ค. 2024
- Metering modes of Fujifilm cameras, otherwise known as photometry settings, contain four settings: Multi, Center Weighted, Spot, and Average. These tell the camera how to calculate the best exposure for your scene.

I'M JOKING!!! I'M KIDDING!!!! NO, the channel is not going away! I'm now getting a lot of emails about this -- sorry for confusion. Though, I may invite some photographer friends to link up and we'll go on a @minecraft quest together. Hey Mojang or @Microsoft, can you add Fujifilm camera objects to the final Caves and Cliffs update?
Sorry, I came here solely for Minecraft videos and instead some photography stuff is being talked about. UNSUBSCRIBED!!!!!! 😜
could you perhaps talk about dynamic range once? I really don't get it that well.
I have believed your joke about ceasing this valuable channel. I've been on the verge of a heart attack ... don't be so cruel, please ...
@@matadordemolinos Sorry!!!! 🙏
People have no sense of humor anymore. I thought it was hilarious!
I know this video is 2-years old, but I am just now learning photography and found the info here incredibly helpful. Thanks so much, you earned a new subscriber.
If you own fuji this channel is a MUST. Always the best.
Would love to see a full video on histogram! Also have a great weekend
You got it! You too by the way!! 👍
Did he not promised a video on the color histogram a while ago? Also i am binging avery video! Keep em coming!
Please, do a histogram for b&w and color photos!!! Awesome channel!
You’re such a wonderful teacher! Even though I feel as if I know how to use my X-T3, there’s always something I learn from you. Thanks Chris!
Thanks Aaron!!!! 🙏 🙏
@@pal2techI’ve had my Fuji xt3 for a year and a half, and I still learn something new from you, every time 🙌🏽
Just as expected another great video from you! Always learning something new when I watch.. Just turned on the focus and exposure interlock.
Setting the spot linked to metering is so great! Thanks for teaching me this!
This explanation is so good. Thank you!
Chris, you're the best! You make learning fun again. Always looking forward to your videos even when I've already learned what you're teaching, I can still pick up a thing or two! I love it. Keep up the great work. I can't wait to see the histogram video, I've watched some but no one explains it that well and I know you'll make it fun and exciting.
This is one of the most useful video I have seen. Well done.
Thank you so much for making these videos - they are amazing! I recently got a Fujifilm XT-3, and your videos have been an invaluable resource for me to rapidly get more familiar with the camera system, especially since this camera is my first Fuji camera. Looking forward to watching more!
I always use spot metering, check the histogram, then lock the exposure. I never bother with any of the other metering modes. But now I know how the other metering modes work. 🙂
Once again, fresh and clear.
I’ve been watching your channel well over a year, and I just got my first Fuji a couple days ago, a X-T3. Super helpful. Thanks.
Helpful I use spot a lot and the option to balance the entire scene with the option ON was super helpful !
THE BEST VIDEO on METERING MODE. THANK YOU! 👍
Great tip with turning on the interlock feature for spot metering! I use spot the majority of the time but I do also have the issue of exposure changing depending on where the focus is set at. Thanks for sharing that tip! Having read other comments, I’m not the only one who appreciated that tip!
Dude, you are an incredible teacher and personality.
Spot linked metering tip is a revelation. It's really helped me with some frustrations I was having. Thank you!
I seriously learn something every time I watch your videos. I didn’t know about the interlock feature. I literally turned on my X-T4 and turned that on right away so was watching. Thank you for the awesome tips as always.
Another great video thanks can't wait to see the histogram video 👍😊
Always helpful and informative, thanks. You’re the reason I went back and re bought my x-t30 as a small walk around 9instead of my door). I was confused with it as it was so different however finding your videos has convinced me to keep trying as it’s a lovely camera
everytime i visit your channel i manage to learn something new! thank you for sharing your knowledge with us
Once again, critical knowledge shared and illustrated succinctly. Much appreciated.
And yes, please, a video on the histogram with Fuji cameras would be welcome.
It's like the "Good Eats" of photography. Love all your videos. Super helpful
Pretty much spot metering linked to focus for me. you're the best out there for Fuji education 🙏🏻
I've been trying to figure out the Photometry on my XT4, thank you.....lifesaver!
Thank you, Chris. I'm glad you brought this up as I tend to leave the Fuji in one setting and not use the rest. I like something fast for birds that may move within a second, and auto focus with the back button. Have a great weekend, too!
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos! 👍👏
Great video Chris!!! Best explanation ever, as per many on this channel...uffff....not going away!!!
Thank you for being a good teacher with beginners like me. I really understood this better! You're also the reason why I'm seriously considering switching from Canon to Fujifilm. Great job!
Amazing vid, Chris! Thank you!
I fell in love with photography since 2016, and I was only using my phone camera back then; because of your videos, I purchased the XT5, and I'm loving every single aspect of it!
I always find something new to learn in your videos. Excellent channel! Thank you.
Having acquired an older but in mint condition X-T2 I discovered this channel - and wow it is so helpfull! Thank you very much.
Great video Chris. I have just purchased an XT-4 so your videos are so useful, thank you. 👍📸
One-by-one, I'm going to watch all your Fujifilm videos. Thanks for the indespensable nugget of knowledge.
You are the best fujifilm teacher of the world! I'm watching your tutorials and I'm learning so many things about my new x-t4. I thank you so much.
Great tips Chris! Thank you! Have a great weekend!
As always great video. You have the gift of teaching.
You and your family have a good weekend too Chris, cheers.
wow, so much to learn from you, Professor Chris ........... thank you
I'm new to my X-T3 and I'm kind of watching all of videos about fujifilm camaras. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
The detailed explanation of the histogram, access,usage, meaning is going to be most helpful and eagerly anticipated. Please remember there are many Newbies, like myself, who find this info confusing when not detailed slowly. Thanks
Excellent as always. Since I use back button focusing and generally spot metering (I really like it for a lot of things I do) I often decouple focuse and metering so that I can focus on what I want and keep the shutter half pressed once I find the right exposure. That then allows me to recompose and shoot without loosing neither the metering nor the focus
The best Gen-X dad photography channel.
Best Fuji channel of them all👍
Two month Fuji user here (switched from Sony largely due to your videos). Love your content as you always clear up the confusion I get by reading the manual! Keep up the great work!
Thank u so much for the teaching am always amazed I grow to learn more of my camera indeed!
Really looking forward to your video about how to use the histogram!
Handled my issue within the first few seconds -- had the face/eye detect mode turned on :) Thanks!
Maaaaaate….great tutorial. Thanks so much. New to Fujifilm and this is so helpful.
Huge thanks for the video. You saved my day
I just bought an Fuji Xt3 and a lens. I was browsing some basic things to operate a Fuji. Wow you made me subscribe to your channel. Thank you in making this video. Salute sir.
Great info and good advice about learning to use the histogram.
thanks Chris, the interlock tip was great! ciao
Dude thank you for all of your videos! Such a great help! I ordered my first digital camera based off your recommendations. I got the x-t3 with a 35mm f/2 lens. I get it this monday, so excited to try out all these cool things I've learned. Thanks Again!
Been struggling with getting good exposure using spot metering despite knowing how useful it can be, your explanation and tip about the interlocking was very helpful, thank you
Well, after owning my X-T3 for a few years, I finally understand what the Interlock Spot and AE setting does. Also the Photometry setting being dulled out is now solved. Many Thanks
Thanks you so much for this nice video. Without your videos I definitely wasn't using my camera as I do know! I wish I could donate for your time and sharing your knowledge. Have a great weekend!
Excellent video and very easy to understand.
Brilliant!! Thank you! I am going to save this video for future reference.
Very helpful as always!! Have a great weekend Chris!!
You too Juan!!!! 👍
As a fujifilm shooter, this channel is the best for learning to master my camera/tool, thank you.
Brilliant video, so helpful
Thanks man, this is so helpful.
As always, amazing content. Very helful! Thanks.
Awesome, so pleased I found your channel.
This was great! Thanks. I also have the Canon R6 - I wish they had that interlock feature for the spot metering!
This is the ONLY channel i need to learn how to get max out of my Fuji!
Thanks for this video. Earlier this year I upgraded from an X-T2 to an X-T4 and I have had issues with some concert photos with dark backgrounds and performers under lights where the performer is almost blowing out. Tonight I almost went insane trying to find the metering modes while trying to photograph some favorite jazz artists in these conditions. I had to severely reduce the exposure compensation to get close to reasonable results and that did not seem right. In the dark I couldn’t tell if I had forgotten which dial had the metering modes. Anyway, as you explained, the problem is I had the eye detect on and deep down the multi metering mode was also active without me seeing that or knowing how to change it. I can’t believe I didn’t pick up on that before. Glad to know better now but aggravated that Fuji set up the menus this way and also got rid of the metering mode dial. Thanks again.
I just bought a Fuji X-S10 and thanks to your videos I can handle the camera better.
I've been watching your channel and researching this camera for days and finally decided on it and now I can't decide between the black and silver 😅
Brilliant, as always
Great tip on the interlock and would definitely like to see a video on using the histogram please.
Thank you. Very helpful.
Dude, awesome video!!
Best teacher on You Tube - Thank you sir! You, Reggie and John BranchIV are gold for Fuji users :) Have a nice weekend too
Thank you!! 🙏 🙏
Very helpful videos, thanks a bunch!
Very helpful 💐💯
I turned on Interlock Spot after watching this video. Thanks.
Well explained. Thanks
Your explanations are so complete and helpful, I've decided to even put up with the Dad humor!
Another awesome one. Thanks!
another great video! well done!
Thank you for an yet very informative video! Love your channel!
So nice of you!
Chris you are a wonderful teacher & I have learnt lots from you, I am carrying a Fujifilm XT4 camera and after seeing your video on "Metering Modes of Fujifilm Cameras" I have offed the face /eye detections in settings, but still metering mode (PHOTOMETRY) is unselect able, can you please guide me what further settings I should check on this .
I asked a year ago after watching this useful video whether center-weighted metering could be linked to the focus point as spot metering can be. I just did an experiment on my X-T2, and it can't! I think it would be very useful to be able choose between frame center and focus point for center-weighted metering as you can for spot metering. I hope you can use your influence with Fujifilm to make this happen!
Very helpful. Looking foward to histogram.
Thank you so much for your video !
Thank you so much!
Thank pal, it was an amazing job 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks. Very well explained and changed my settings. I thought I knew this.....
Great video. Thank you so much
Chris - the histogram video will helpful but not just for a normal well lit scene but the ones where it’s low light or exposing for snow or the sun and so on…been able to look at the feedback from the metering and making a creative choice would be so cool 😎
A true teacher
Great info, thanks! Question: If I have my X-T4 set to back button focus, will that affect the spot metering and focusing?
You're killing it, mate. Even when I know the subject matter, I still find myself tuning in because your videos are enjoyable. That's the way to do it! Have a great day.
No idea why I just called you mate. I live in Pennsylvania, not Australia.
@@Metal_Vistas spit coffee at my monitor. thanks, really.
Thank you so much!! You totally made my day. Cheers Mate!!! 👍 👍
@@pal2tech hello mates! I feel like there needs to be an actual Aussie in here somewhere. Happy weekend and thabks for the interlock advice!!!
Very helpful 👍
Hi Lee... Great video and very informative.. one question.. if I'm a manual compensation shooter, do i have to be in multimode? And many difference if I'm in other mode and i work my compensation from there? Thank you
Just found your Fujifilm channel. Working my way through the your videos.
One question for XT-3; how do I assign a button for metering/photometry
I can’t find it in the menus. Thanks
