Dan has shot with X Series cameras for nearly six years, and he’s worked closely with the FUJIFILM tech reps and product managers. He knows these cameras inside and out.

In this book, you'll learn all the camera settings, how to use autofocus, how to use and customize the film simulations to create your own “look,” how to set up the camera for maximum image quality and performance, and many other features such as bracketing, exposure modes, the ADV mode filters, how to update firmware, and how to optimize your Fuji to match your style and subject matter.
