Two Fujifilm settings that quietly work against you — and how to avoid them.
Most photographers use both of these without realizing the damage they're doing. One ruins your focus. The other slows your camera to a crawl. In this classic pal2tech video, I break down both so you don't have to learn them the hard way.
NOTE: The channel is on a brief Spring Break hiatus but back very soon
with all new videos. In the meantime, enjoy this re-edited classic!
In This Video:
▸ The aperture setting that no autofocus system can overcome
▸ Why shallow depth of field is the most dangerous trap in photography
▸ The Fujifilm Clarity setting and what it does to your write speed
▸ How to find and fix both settings on your camera right now
