Going from one camera 'ecosystem' (my newly learned piece of jargon) to another can be rather frightening. I have only just started to become conversant with my Canon's menu, button and dial system, so starting again - from scratch - with the X-T2's plethora of dials and 'retro' (manual-centric) philosophy is going to be a big learning curve. So I thought I would look around to see if I can do some preparation before my X-T2 arrives.
I came across a video on YouTube by Tony Northrup in which he gives a very nice tour and explanation of Fujifilm's X-T1 camera and it's settings, and while the X-T2 will add some new features and settings I *think* a lot of the main functions will be the same...
This seems like a good introduction to the Fuji 'way' of doing things (Fujidō if you will)! And I'm glad I check this out prior to my new camera arriving as after watching the video I realized that my new camera will definitely challenge me (which is what I want).
As usual, I guess, I will be leaning heavily on the crutch of 'Auto' to begin with, but I do want to make headway into the wacky world of manual settings. And it seems Fujifilm has its own way of doing manual!
At least I now have a general idea of how some of the major features can be accessed!
