Re: After Firmware Update 3.0 - Results

Just for information, for anyone interested in static testing results...

Having run tests with the new firmware, have found that the issue of variable 0.2-0.5s shutter-press to image-capture lag with the 35mm, 56mm and 60mm, when in MF and stopped-down, still remains after this software update.

I just got somewhat caught up in finishing this thread. Could you please dummy it down for I got confused by all the info and charts probably due to a mixed of some laziness or impatience on my part. I got that it occurs worse with you 56mm especially stopping down and adjusting focus prior while in MF.

In my list I have the X-E1 with 18~55, 55~200, 14 and 60 macro. Would you say the improvement in delay time has not improved much or at all with having an updated X-T1? I almost always set my camera in M but use the AF back button. There are aspects I think I'd appreciate in upgrading to the X-T1 but it is a bit disappointing that the way I shoot I may not see enough or any difference in response time.

Thanks for all your work I would never get to myself.
