How to use mobile phone to control camera to shoot Fuji x2?

Fuji camera remote control has four functions: remote control, receiving, camera browsing and geographical marking.

It is very convenient to fix the camera on a tripod and control the shutter remotely when taking a selfie.

With the development of photography technology, more and more cameras have wireless function, such as Sony A7 series, Canon EOS 760D, Fuji X 100T and X-T 10. Through the corresponding mobile App, you can not only easily wirelessly transmit images to your smartphone or tablet, but also control the focus and shutter of your camera with your smartphone or tablet.

The Fuji X 100T used by the author has Wi-Fi function. After downloading and installing the Fuji camera remote App, you can control taking and viewing photos through your mobile phone. Fuji camera remote control has free Android and iOS versions to choose from, and it is also very simple to use.

Turn on the camera and turn on the Wi-Fi function. Fuji X 100T has a special Wi-Fi shortcut key, which can quickly enter the Wi-Fi interface. Then find the camera option in the mobile phone Wi-Fi settings to complete the pairing. After the connection, you can enter the main interface of the application, and you can see four options, namely remote control, receiving, browsing the camera and geotagging.

Remote control function

The most powerful is the remote control function. After entering, the mobile phone screen will display the real-time image of the camera, and the parameters such as aperture and white balance are set at the bottom of the interface. At the same time, you can also choose film simulation, macro shooting and other modes, and you can complete the control on the mobile phone without adjusting the camera.

Touch focusing on the mobile phone screen is also very user-friendly. Unlike the camera remote control, you can only set the camera before shooting and lock the focus before pressing the button. Even more intimate, there are 2 seconds and 10 second delay shooting in the setting. Especially when taking selfies, the camera can be quickly transformed into a selfie artifact, which makes the preparation time more sufficient, so that we can hide the mobile phone and take seamless photos. After shooting, you can choose to copy the photos in the camera to your mobile phone, or browse the photos in the camera directly.

Receiving function

The receiving function can upload a single photo from the camera to mobile terminals such as smart phones. Find the photos that need to be uploaded in the camera, press the menu/OK key to send them, and the photos will be automatically displayed after the App receives them. The time required for uploading varies with the file size and distance.

Browse camera

Once connected, you can view multiple photos taken in the camera by selecting the browse camera option (up to 30 photos can be transferred at a time). Touch All to select all images, and touch Clear to deselect all images.

At the same time, you can touch an image, display it as a single screen, and then download it. After downloading, there will be four other options: exit, photo, * * * * enjoy and import, which can be operated as needed.

geographical indication

Personally, I think the function of geographical indications is a bit weak, and this function is basically idle in the daily use of ordinary users. Moreover, you need to turn on the GPS settings in the camera to get the corresponding data.

In wireless remote control mode, you can set most parameters of the camera. For friends who like to take selfies, this function is very practical and easy to control. However, it also has some shortcomings, such as the mobile terminal can't directly delete the photos in the camera, can't directly exit from the main menu when entering one of the four functions, and must disconnect the Wi-Fi and reconnect the mobile phone to perform other operations.
