I tested this quite extensively (it was keeping me up at night), and have reliable workaround. (the shooting 'wide open' suggestion from above did not work for me) using the: 16-55 F2.8 Do this (no other combination works): Manually Set Shutter Speed (i.e 1/60) Auto Aperture. Manually Set ISO: (i.e. 1000) You'll need to experiment with the ISO values (zoom in and out of your scene) and watch what the camera does as it automatically sets aperture. You'll need to ballpark it depending on the depth of field you need. If you need a narrow depth of field, ISO lower, If you need a wide depth of field set ISO higher. (yes, this is kind of weird to think about, but it will make sense when you try it) Obviously, this is really disappointing that this is required when using a zoom lens. Fuji desperately needs to smooth this out to work with all setting on manual. Hopefully that helps somebody. 🙂
