Can FUJI design a much longer lasting battery than the NP-W-126? Can we forward this to FUJI.This is my only complaint with my XE-2.Love my results.David S. Ferry.
I suppose Fuji could simply specify a higher capacity battery for any given camera model. But there's no free lunch: higher capacity almost always means a physically bigger battery.
To be fair I got the thick end of 1000 exposures out of one battery in my X-T1 at the air show the other day. I have two bodies and five batteries between them and that is the first time I have run one down totally in a day.
Which shouldn't exclude an external battery pack. No? I would buy one of those for a hard day's night.
You can use a second battery with the X-T1 in the optional battery grip.
Yes, Rico. I can and I do but -- personal preference -- I would rather not have that weight in my hand but on my belt in certain situations.
Are your cameras set to HIGH PERFORMANCE?
I never run Hi Perf mode, and whenever I can I use EVF + Sensor so it's basically off unless I have it up to my face. I don't review jpgs much, and I don't leave the camera on walking between shots...
