abib_b Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 <p>I am struggling with the AF system in the X-E2. Too often, the system chooses to lock focus on the area represented by a tiny corner of the active AF point when there is a plenty of texture in the majority of the image under the AF point. Unfortunately, that corner represents some textured surface that, almost always, is in the background and is several meters away from the intended AF point. This photo is a case in point though I have many others: the locked focus point is just to the right and several meters back from the front child.<br /><br />It is as if there is no nearest-distance or majority-area-under-the active-AF-point-at-consistent-distance heuristic in the system, and it makes snapshot portraiture with my 23mm and 35mm lenses very difficult. To make matters worse, unlike the OVF in my FF DSLR, and despite all its benefits, the EVF does not have the resolution to show me instantly that the camera has missed focus. Face detection is much better but really is not foolproof. I appreciate that one can make the AF point smaller. To be fair, my old X100s had similar failings but lacked face detection. Still, it seems to me that the AF system could and should be much, much better and makes an otherwise great camera very frustrating to use. </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanford Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 <p>I have the ISO set to auto 6400 and DR to auto (XE1) and the camera usually picks the center focus point and uses a high ISO and small F stop to cover its focus errors. IT CHEATS! Luckily the Fuji is one of the few cameras that present a useful ISO 6400 photo if needed. Take away the superb photographs it produces and the Fuji is a very slowly operating camera. Surely not the Leica it pretends to emulate. My point and shoots of years past were much faster.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abib_b Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 <p>Sanford, that's very funny. The X-E2 is slow, but is made slower, for me at least, by some of these weaknesses. I do agree with you that it makes great pictures. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
