Download Firmware Fujifilm X-Pro2 5.00

Fujifilm has for its X-Pro2-digital system cameras released new firmware, with 5.00 as version number. These cameras have a 24.3 megapixel aps-c format x-trans-cmos-iii image sensor and are suitable for lenses with a Fujifilm X mount. This update is approximately 51MB in size and can be loaded onto the camera via a memory card set. The corresponding list of changes looks like this:

Version 5.00

• Enlarged and customizable indicators or information
  The upgrade allows users to enlarge indicators and information in the viewfinder and/or LCD monitor. This upgrade will also enable users to customize the location of where the information is shown on the display.
• Addition of “Flicker Reduction”
  For enhancing the quality of indoor sports photography, the upgrade allows users to reduce flicker in pictures and the display when shooting under fluorescent lighting and other similar light sources.
• Addition of “Select Folder” and “Create Folder”
  Enable to choose the folder in which subsequent pictures will be stored. And also enable to enter a five-character folder name to create a new folder in which to store subsequent pictures.
• Enhanced Phase Detection AF
  Latest updates to the AF algorithm provide the following performance enhancements
  • The low-light limit for phase detection autofocus has been improved by approximately 1.5 stops from 0.5EV to -1.0EV, raising the precision and speed of autofocus in low-light environments.
  • The range at minimum aperture has been expanded from F8 to F11. For example, even when using the XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR with the tele converter XF2X TC WR, phase detection autofocus can now be used.
  • Major improvements have been made to the AF-C performance while operating the zoom, which provides major benefits when shooting sports and other scenarios in which the subjects moves unpredictably.
  • Finely-detailed surface textures of wild birds and wild animals can now be captured at high speed and with high precision as a result of improvement in phase detection autofocus.
• New functions are added to store and read of camera settings by FUJIFILM X Acquire.
  Once connecting a camera to a computer via USB cable, the “FUJIFILM X Acquire” allows users to backup/restore camera settings to/from a file. With “FUJIFILM X Acquire” (ver.1.7 or newer), CUSTOM REGISTRATION/EDIT settings are also stored and read.
