- In this Fujifilm X100V tutorial, we go over the front and rear command dials, why to use it and how to get it set up.
For the hardcore X100 enthusiasts, you guys probably all already know this stuff (probably better than I do) but for anyone new to the system who want to know how to FULLY utilise the capabilities of this camera, this video will get you up to speed!

For everyone who cannot get the aperture dial to work when set to "A" go into menu > wrench icon > button dial setting > aperture ring setting (A) and set it to 'command' instead of 'auto'
That just saved my heart! Was having a heck of a time thanks
Thanks. Your comment helped me a lot.
a hour of pain later you saved me .. lol thanks brother
Hi there, for some reason, I still cant get command dial to change aperture after following the steps u mentioned, aperture icon is orange and not blue in color.
@@leongtoon62 too low ligh , make iso higher or open aperture and it will become blue or white…
I cant begin to tell how useful this video is. I had set the command dial incorrectly in menu and it all stopped working. Thanks
Thanks. Very important tutorial
Great video, I’ve learned a lot. Thanks Jay.
Another great video. So easy to watch and follow. Tone, content, pacing, illustrative manner of walking us through the key concepts - all top! You're a one-man photo academy. Thanks! 📸🙏🏆
Thank you, just got my fujifilmx100v not long ago and this was very helpful!
Thank you Jay for the clarification re Aperture in command mode. I thought there is something wrong with my camera when I could not change the aperture in command mode. You saved my day . Thanks again
Yes Sir, all your videos are very helpful… Thank you so very much Jay…🥰
Really found your video both informative and enjoying... .tks!
Thank you. Very clear presentation
Thank you. That was really useful
Thank you for the post Very helpful
Thanks for the video. In addition you can also set the top dials to allow the command dials to switch between, P, A, S and M modes. For example, with the aperture ring set to A and Shutter ring to T, you're now in shutter priority mode when using the rear command dial. But switch to the front command dial to change aperture and you're in manual mode. Now change the shutter ring to A. You're in aperture priority mode and can use the front command dial to change aperture. Go past f16 on the dial and you're suddenly at f2 in P mode. Brilliant!
Thank you, Jay! Absolutely would like to see more Videos on the X100V, very helpful!
And more videos you shall recieve! cheers John
Just the video o needed. Thank you.
Thank You for this!📷✌🏻🤓
You are an excellent Teacher ✨👌
Thanks Jay !!!
Thanks, Jay, Your vids especially the earlier ones are like my bible for the X100V!
This one was super helpful man 🙌🏼. Especially it will make the shooting on the street much quicker and spontaneous
It's always faster with two hands, but this is a great way to manage on one! Thanks for that huge praise my man! 🙏
A on aperture and T on s.s have been the missing values for me, so i have to thank you a lot for this clarifying video. Perfect moment and very good explained.
Thankyou very much!
Thanks for this
Txs Jay,Excellent video as always. Cheers
Cheers Frank!🙏
Thank you. I was sooooo confused before watching this video
Yes indeed, a very helpful tutorial! Thanks so much Jay!
But you already knew didn't you? 😁
@@JayRegular A lot of it I did, but your video helped hone my knowledge, as I learned valuable info about setting the command dials. Thanks to you!
I just got the x100v so this will be helpful thanks!
Enjoy using it Thomas! 👌
Thanks for this, going to try on my X-Pro 3!
Thanks! it should work pretty similarly for that camera system
Command dials are always faster and great for one hand operations. Great X100V video as always Jay! I keep getting tempted 😂
It's never too late man! 😉😉😉
Awesome video, so helpful! Thank you
thankyou Karen!
@@JayRegular Hi Jay- is the video geared only for those that shoot in Manual, or can it be in other modes as well? Thanks
Yes Karen this is mainly for those that like full control over their camera settings.
Not sure if it’s a new update or not but you can also longpress the front dial to bring up the menu seen at 1:29
Thank you for the clarification - helped a lot! Maybe you can talk a little bit about exposing for highlights / shadows ? Like how to maybe use exposure compensation to just have the highlights up (and the rest is dark) ?
Sounds good, I will get around to that!
great video. is there a way I can Reverse the direction of the dial? ie spin right to decrease shutter speed with in manual mode....can't seem to be able to locate that setting...
thanks Jay finally I can drink a beer while taking pictures! 😆 EInhandbedienung is mega important in streetphotography. if you have to fumble around with your camera for a long time the moment is gone.
I made this tutorial specifically for beverage drinkers in mind... And grocery shoppers 😉
@@JayRegular i just say Yusuke Nagata. he certainly has a beer holder on his camera. 😂
New camera accessory idea, hand grip/beer holder
Hi Jay, how do you set the back command dial setting for when you press it in rather than rotate it? Thanks Karin
For some reason, even though I have my aperture ring to A, I still can't control the aperture using the command dial. Do you know why that may be the case?
Thanks for another super helpful vid!
Hey truong, check the pinned comment, I replied to someone with the same issue. I forgot to address this in the video
@@JayRegular Thank you!
Dangit, so close, I can get the rear dial to control shutter speed and the front to cycle between exposure compensation and iso but the aperture even with the front rotater ring set on A doesn't let me access the F stop; instead of showing up in blue, mine is in orange and is pegged at 2.0. Wonder what I am missing. When I try to set the front command dial to Aperture in the menu, it just goes back to the screen and shows F...if I try to set it to shutter speed though it will go back and show SS. If I put the physical aperture wheel to a number, say 4, that shows up in blue on the screen but now the front command wheel does nothing. Very odd. I also as per page 228 of manual set aperture ring setting to 'command' from 'auto' and thought I would be golden, nope.
edit -I think I now sorta have it - aperture ring to Command from on page 2 of the wrench menu, i put rear command dial to SS, put front dial to Aperture and then put options 2 and 3 to NONE. Then the command dial would work the aperture, then i added back iso and exposure comp and it works as you would expect. If you have anything else in option 2/3, it seems 1 wouldn't work for aperture control. One thing other thing - if you have your time ring set to to T, its like manual mode and there is no way to force an exposure compensation (which makes sense I guess).
To be clear, if you lose control of ability to control aperture on the front command dial, make sure your front ring is set to A, wrench menu page 2 apeture ring is command and not auto, set functions 2 and 3 to none and 1 to aperture, then it works, THEN add back in iso/exp comp.
Hi Jay. I cannot understand how to get into full manual mode using front and rear command dials! I am on T on top dial and A on aperture ring and have front dial set for F then iso then none as I don’t use exp comp in manual. But the front command dial will only change iso not aperture and camera shows to be in shutter priority. Can you assist me to get into M mode but only using front and rear dials rather than having to use aperture ring on lens. Thank you.
My comment above should help you
@@adriancoleman1120 thanks Adrian but if I have the aperture ring set to A no matter what I do with the front and rear command dial I cannot get the camera to go into M mode. I know I must be doing something wrong but I can’t figure it out! I have the front command dial showing as F then ISO then NONE but it will only set up for ISO and not aperture.
Malcolm I missed this detail in my video, but go into menu > wrench icon > button dial setting > aperture ring setting (A) and set it to 'command' instead of 'auto'
@@JayRegular you are a star, this has been driving me mad 😡 Thank you so much for your help, all working as I want now using front and rear dials in M mode. 👍🏻
Hi my brother’s front command dial got stuck inside is there a way we can get it out ?
Take it to a to a Fujifilm service technician
I have issue in video mode. How to control over aperture and exposure compensation everything is forcefully set to auto for me in video mode.
I'll get around to addressing video features for cameras soon
I have my ISO set to A my SS to T and my exposure compensation to C. The front dial has exposure compensation greyed out and will not work. Only works if I move SS from T to A
Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong and why the exposure compensation is grayed out and won’t work with the setup i described?
If you set your shutter speed to T you are still in control of your shutter speed with the back dial. For exposure compensation to work, you need to set shutter speed to auto to give camera full control in order to 'compensate' the exposure.
