Papiskokuji Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Hello everyone ! I just received my EF-FX1 Viltrox adapter and updated it to the latest firmware. Unfortunately, the image stabilization seems to work only a few seconds after you change the aperture value or you half press the shutter button (much like an IS would work in photography). I can't get to be activated constantly. Do some of you guys have the adapter ? Is there a trick or a known firmware version that works ? Currently, the IS is unusable for video work. I won't keep the adapter if I can't fix this problem. Is the Fringer better in that respect ? Thank you ! EDIT : I have a Fuji X-T3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrothersthre3 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 The Fringer is much better overall, but you don't get the speedbooster aspect of course. Can't comment on if there is a fix for the issue you are having though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papiskokuji Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Thanks for the reply. Actually, the EF-FX1 is a simple adapter, not the speedbooster one. I contacted Viltrox, they just told me to update the firmware. Basically I tried every firmware. The only one kind of working is the latest one. In the Fuji X-T3 menu, stabilization setting is greyed out (you can normally chose if IS is always on or just when you take the picture). So, so far, IS isn't supported by the Viltrox EF-FX1 adapter. Good to know... Do you get the stablization working with the fringer ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
