A Jedi of the XPro 1. Superb, have just gone full circle with cameras taken about 10 years but have returned to an xpro 1 because of the sensor . Thanks for the informative video Jorge.
The auto setting in the white balance is the only NEUTRAL option for changing the white balance shift. I forgot to say the word "NEUTRAL" 😂. You can change the shift with some of the other white balance profiles, but you're imposing whatever temperature those are set to.
I'm glad you like it! I hope the video was useful or interesting, I'll be posting more simulation recipes on my website in the near future as well. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a kind comment as well! I appreciate it 🙏🏼✨
Welcome aboard! I hope the video was helpful or useful! Fuji cameras are really fun and produce really great results as well! I recommend checking my X-pro1 settings & setup video, as well as the AF-L back button focusing video as well. That should be enough to get you up a running! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! Keep me posted with your experiences with the camera 😁🙌🏼
After shooting primarily film for the last 4 years my xpro1 has sadly been sitting in a dark drawer. Of course, everyone knows film prices are ridiculous these days so I’m trying to get back into it using it for every day work. Your content around the xpro1 settings has been inspirational to really get into utilizing the settings and optimizing my camera! Love the content, Jorge, keep it up!
Glad you like them! How's the camera treating you? happy to hear people using it and enjoying it as well! Make sure you check out the setup video and AF-L video as well, that might help you shoot a little faster and set it up properly. Happy to hear that the video was valuable, thanks for watching and for sharing a comment! I appreciate it 😁🙏🏼
Glad you think so friend! I'm just trying to make the videos I would have wanted to watch when I was starting out. I hope the video was useful or entertaining! Thank you very much for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! I appreciate it 🙌🏼✨
Glad it helped! Trying to make an in-depth video but at the same time not make it very boring is hard haha. I hope it was really useful to you. Thank you for watching and sharing a comment as well! I really appreciate it ✨🙏🏼

@@Jorge-Perez looking for your thoughts / opinion. I was thinking of trading my Canon 7d mark ii & a 24-105 f4 L lens for a mint X-Pro2. I have an x-t30 and a xe2 w/12, 23, 35, and 50 lenses. Should I be trading for glass instead of another body??? I’ve always wanted an xpro2.

Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! Cheers 🙏🏼✨
Thanks for making this video! I was having issues with the xpro1 and2 with this. Thanks! Ended up saving 3 color shifts and applied them to an individual simulation. Only useful for 3
Glad it helped! The white balance shift is an important setting that does not get talked about very often. I'm glad the video was useful, keep me posted on updates regarding your custom profiles! thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well, I really appreciate it, man 🙌🏼✨
@@Jorge-Perez yes same problem with my xe1 😂 idk at first bcs maybe im not update the firmware or smth, after watch this i know why i must manually set the wb shift
I always thought recipes were only available for X-Pro2 generation models and up. I’m so excited to find there are recipes you can load into the X-Pro1!
You are so welcome! That's the beauty of X-Trans sensors, I really do love the colours from the X-Pro1, and with classic chrome, and my own black and white recipe I'm enjoying using the camera quite a bit! Keep me posted on your experiences with the custom recipes! Thanks for watching and for sharing! Cheers! 🙏🏼😁
@@-OEG let me help answering this. According to the Fuji X Weekly, the 1st X trans sensor does not have the classic chrome simulation. Hope it helps :)

I’m really pleased to have discovered you Jorge. I guess this video fits with the e1 perfectly? I shoot RAW, and have owned a range of X-T s. Currently a 5 and an X-H1. I’ve a e1 incoming today and I’m going to try the jpeg/ film simulation experience. I date back to an Olympus OM 2n bought new and before that a Practika in the 70s. Thank you.
Hi Jorge, I just got myself a used Xe1 and am facing an issue. After saving a custom preset, when I am pressing the q button and scrolling to that preset it is showing. But as soon as I go out of the menu and go back in I see instead of C1 it reads BASIC. I don't know what I am doing wrong or if this is a camera issue. Please help, thanks!
There might be, but I haven't explored it yet. Simulation recipes take an incredible amount of time and work, fine-tuning the profiles and making sure that it actually replicates the colours properly. Check the Fuji x Weekly site just in case, they might have created something like that. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! I appreciate it 🙌🏼😁
My xpro1 is jumping back to base in the q menu from custom profile after switching the camera off. Is there a possibility that it stays at the last used custom profile?
Interesting, so the camera will display "basic" on the custom selection every time you press the Q button, however that's the selector only, if you pay close attention to the actual settings, these stay the same. Another way to do this is to go to the shooting menu, page #3, then select the custom settings there, at least in my camera the settings stay the same after turning on and off, could you check and let me know? Thanks!
Hello Jorge! I love your photos with the faux Classic Chrome recipe. I recently bought an XE-1 + the 35mm f/2 and was experimenting with it today. I was only in doubt about the exposure compensation. For your photos in this video, what value did you use or rather what value do you recommend for a 100% sooc trigger? Thanks in advance and congratulations for your channel, I am a regular visitor to your videos.
Thanks for the kind words friend! And welcome aboard. First, I don't always use exposure compensation, when you have the camera in full manual mode, the exposure compensation dial is disabled, It does not do anything. When you have at least one of the settings in "A", (iso, shutter, or aperture) the exposure compensation will be enabled to whatever is that you selected. Second, I expose for the highlights in almost all of my photographs, I evaluate the frame and expose manually where I can since there might be frames where exposing for the highlights will confuse the camera, (think of a really bright reflection of a moving car, or a tiny piece of sky that is blown out, etc). I use the histogram to protect the highlights and expose them slightly to the left. Ultimately, I am the one responsible for exposing correctly, not the camera, so I won't listen to what the histogram is "supposed to be" and to do that, I would set up the EC to -²⁄₃ or -1⁄₃ (IF I'm doing aperture priority, but most of the time is just full manual mode). I hope that helps! How's the X-E1 treating you? curious to hear your thoughts about it. Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! I appreciate it, friend! 🙏🏼✨
Hey Jorge, yesterday I got the X-Pro 1! My first digital camera (been shooting analog mostly). I looked up the recipes on Fuji x Weekly and what stands out is the auto ISO up to 3200. And then it also states exposure compensations. But from what I noticed and also read online is that the Exp Comp doesnt work when on Auto ISO.. Can you help to clarifying this for me?
If you could save the white balance changes this would be amazing. With all the firmware updates I would hope fuji could do this. Then it would be an almost perfect camera.
The point is to shoot with intentionality, to know what you want and to try to get it in camera, that is the best way to master the craft, control the settings and get the results you truly want. I made an entire video explaining some of the decisions and reasons behind my actions, you can find it here: ua-cam.com/video/9tbf6UTuHbE/v-deo.html Hope that helps! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! cheers 🙌🏼
That feature, plus if the camera had the 1st x-trans sensor would make the x100 my default recommendation for people getting started! It's a great camera and I really enjoy using it, but I like the X-Pro a little bit better. Want to try the X-E series in the near future, but like you know waiting for used gear opportunities to present themselves to you takes a long time 😂 Thanks for watching, man. I appreciate the support, Cheers 🙌🏼✨
The guidelines inside the viewfinder change depending on the focal length that you are using, since the OVF is analog, it displays guidelines to simulate the frame. That being said, you can freely move the focusing point by pressing and holding the AF button on the bottom left side of the camera and then using the D-Pad to move the focusing point. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to share a comment as well! Cheers ✨🙌🏼
I see why you would suggest shooting in raw. You could potentially get more out of your images. But I like shooting with intentionality, getting as much as I can in-camera, making me accountable, makes me better. And with raw you miss out on all of these amazing simulations as well. Regardless, thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts, I appreciate it. 🙌🏼✨

I wonder if you could do an ultimate guide series for the x pro 2, I don't know whether it is the same as the x pro 1 or not
Do you recommend using a promist filter for the xpro1?

But as soon as I go out of the menu and go back in I see instead of C1 it reads BASIC. I don't know what I am doing wrong or if this is a camera issue. Please help, thanks!

What film simulation you recommend for best film like recipy? And also one for most natural color for blue sky and white clouds?

Just define the lower dpad button, to recall whitebalance. Then you can edit the auto-setting easily.
Many of the xtrans2 sensor recipes work with the xpro1 too am i right?

But from what I noticed and also read online is that the Exp Comp doesnt work when on Auto ISO..

If you could save the white balance changes this would be amazing.

The Custom settings can also be done IN LR correct on edit.....so what is the purpose of doing it In camera I wonder?

Man, I just wished there was a similar feature on the X100
there is no way to get a WB shift on that camera, that's quite unfortunate
correction : there is a WB shift, it's only separate from the WB settings, and a bit more limited
That feature, plus if the camera had the 1st x-trans sensor would make the x100 my default recommendation for people getting started! It's a great camera and I really enjoy using it, but I like the X-Pro a little bit better.

@@Jorge-Perez well you pretty much summed up the X100S there (basically an X100 with an Xtrans 1 sensor)
Why is the ovf focus point so far off when framing a shot ?
The guidelines inside the viewfinder change depending on the focal length that you are using, since the OVF is analog, it displays guidelines to simulate the frame. That being said, you can freely move the focusing point by pressing and holding the AF button on the bottom left side of the camera and then using the D-Pad to move the focusing point.
