Shooting Set-up
Rotate the rear dial to change the shutter speed. Press the top FN Mode button to toggle between M (Manual) shutter speed or A (Auto) which is Aperture Priority Mode. This function can be assigned to a different FN button by holding down the DISP./BACK button for 3 secs if desired.
The MENU OK button is used to access deeper levels of camera functionality beyond what is offered by function buttons, dials, and switches.
- Category menu tabs are what you use to change capture settings. Push left on the FOCUS STICK to scroll by tab (so you don’t have to scroll through every function to get to the next page), and press right on the FOCUS STICK or SELECTOR BUTTON to access desired features and MENU OK to select.
- The wrench icon indicates SET UP and features settings including Power Management, Button/Dial Setting and Screen Set-Up. Choose DISP. CUSTOM SETTING from the SCREEN SET-UP menu to select what information shows on the EVF/LCD.
- Finally, the MY MENU is a customized menu that you create based on your most frequently accessed menu items. Add and rank to move them in any order you like and remove them under USER SETTING in the SET UP menu. If items are added to the “My Menu”, then My Menu will be the default (with full menu access still available).
Press the DRIVE Mode Dial Lock button around the selection collar to the left of the EVF to unlock it for rotation. In either STILL or MULTI modes, pressing the DRIVE button will bring up a sub-menu for shooting choices such as Focus Bracketing, Multi Exposure, Continuous Shooting and more. Further options for drive modes can be found under MENU OK > SHOOTING SETTING (AE BKT SETTING, FILM SIMULATION BKT, FOCUS BKT) or a shortcut can be assigned to a FUNCTION button.
The photometry/metering setting determines how the camera meters exposure. On the GFX100, select it by pressing MENU OK > SHOOTING SETTING > PHOTOMETRY. This can also be assigned to the Q MENU or a FUNCTION BUTTON.
Note: When the FACE/EYE DETECTION SETTING is turned on, choosing different PHOTOMETRY types will be disabled.
The AE-L button allows you to lock exposure in a specific part of the scene, allowing you to recompose while maintaining the exposure. Auto Exposure Lock is also linked to shutter button pressing, but can be unlinked in the Menu OK>SETUP>BUTTON DIAL SETTINGS.
The AF ON button initiates autofocus in all FOCUS MODES including AF-S, AF-C, and Manual. Autofocus will still be attached to the SHUTTER button, but can be removed by MENU OK > SET UP > BUTTON DIAL SETTINGS> SHUTTER AF > AF-S or AF-C. This will remove AF from the shutter button when turned off and can be isolated to AF-S, AS-C, or both.
The DISP BACK button allows you to select how you’d like information displayed on the LCD and/or EVF. You can customize the information being displayed in SET UP > SCREEN SET-UP > DISP. CUSTOM SETTING.
The maximum flash sync speed is 1/125th for standard flash types. For higher shutter speeds you will need to use High Speed Sync which is offered by most major flash systems including Profoto, Elinchrom and Godox. A Fujifilm compatible trigger will be needed for TTL and HSS operation.
Go to the menu and then CONNECTION SETTING and set PC CONNECTION MODE to USB AUTO. Connect the camera to your computer via USB-C and it will automatically be detected. Then launch your software of choice. In some software, additional selections may be necessary in Preferences or other software menus.
