X-E5 a bluetooth button on bottom plate on a not WR camera

[John Bean (UK)]

The manual implies the button is only used for BT pairing and cannot be remapped.

I'm not suggesting you remap the BT button. I was suggesting that there is no need for a dedicated BT button. For those few that require frequent access to it Fujifilm should have just made the BT function mappable to one of the other buttons or levers.

But everyone has their own opinions of "the best camera". I love my X-E5 pearls, warts, and all.

You had mentioned remapping in general, and I was curious. It would have been nice if it could have been assigned to whatever the user actually needed - for example, it might be a good one for selecting adapted lenses.

Exactly. It's the "dedicated" part of "dedicated BT button" that reduces its usefulness to the majority of users, and although its position isn't ideal - for anything - it could at least have been re-purposed for some other little-used feature other than BT had that option been made available.

I tried the BT button twice now and it was so damn slow that I don't think I will be using it very much.
