Hello everyone and welcome to yet another episode of the Fuji Guys. In today's
episode I'm gonna do the unboxing and the initial setup for the X70 digital
camera so I'm gonna go through the box contents, then going to turn on the camera,
set up the camera and take that first picture and delete that first picture as
well so sit back and stay tuned.
So let's open up our box here. So the first thing you'll notice is that it opens a little
differently than our previous boxes. So if you are a current X Series owner you'll notice a slight
difference in packaging and the way it's done namely the nice X here on the inside box. A nice touch and we
open up the white box we find right away the instruction manual of course. So this is
multilingual, and in the bag here we find our warranty information, how to contact us in case of warranty, who to
contact and so on and then the other support centers if you're out of the
country itself, and then we have the, in this case we have English and Spanish, if
you're in say for example the Quebec market you'd get English and French but
each market will have the appropriate manuals in your area. So this is the inside of
the box. you see the X70 sitting there nice and bagged ready to go. So I am going to go right
into the accessories themselves first. So this is the USB cable. The X70 does charge within
the camera itself so the battery is charged with the camera and this is
about a four-foot, it's a pretty standard, USB cable so you might be able to find
some longer ones out there that will do the job but this is the one that's
included and recommended. So ther is your cable there. In here we're gonna find this
little pouch here with the eylets for the strap. Little brackets here for the strap
and we have the leatherettes, that help protect the camera and this little tool
and this tool is used to be able to help, for guys like me that don't have nails, you don't want to break their fingernails
we have a little tool to help you there so you pry open the
eyelets so that you can snap it on the camera itself. And then we've got the USB charger,
pretty standard I believe it's a 1Amp my memory serves me right and here is the dongle. So you
could tell this comes with the dongle for the North American market
and Japanese market but for the European market you'd need and you would probably
get the appropriate dongle that goes with it. That said these are pretty
universal so this is actually a dual voltage so we'll handle up to 240 volts
if you have the right gender changer it will work anywhere you need it. And then
we have the strap this is just a standard strap Fujifilm shoulder strap, a leather
shoulder strap here as you would expect to receive in your X series camera
and certainly not the last year the least item that's in the accessory box
there and that's of course the NP-95 battery so this is the same battery
that's in the X100 in the X30 as well.
X100, X100S, X100T and X30. Now for the camera itself. So when you first open up the bag
you'll notice the Fujifilm sticker here this allows you do you know, make sure
that it wasn't tampered with, that it was'nt opened up or anything like that.
So you can see it how it voids the seal.
So here is the camera itself.
There's the lens cap for the the camera and just gonna put the battery in
and we're gonna memory cards in this case I'm using an SDHC uhs-i 80mps
it's a class 10 this would be the minimum
recommended for video and so on. Put the battery in turn the camera on, so first it is going to ask
you to select your language, English of course and then we have to set the date
you can press and hold the buttons or your can use the jog wheel to get you where you need to go as well,
and then when you're done everything then you hit the Menu/Ok button. It is going to ask you for either high performance
on or off so in high-performance you can have the fastest autofocus speeds, the
fastest startup times and the just overall performance brighter screen.
Whereas in power-saving then you'll get your maximum or help maximize your
battery life I am just going put it to power power saving mode for now and then there we go
So on this camera right now you could see here in the top corner you got the
on off thats for the touch screen so you can turn it on for the shot turn it on
for the focus or just turn it off and I'm just gonna take a picture here of our boardroom, there we go, so for the focus,
shutter button halfway to take a picture this way so that'll give you the
autofocus are you looking for and then you can take your picture if you have
the touch screen on then you can just take a picture this way by touching and
it will focus and fire.
Try that again focus on fire and then you can also just move your focus point
by doing it that way and will cover more in depth on the top features video
So now that I've taken a couple of pictures to play back a picture that the playback
button right here on top of the screen so there's your picture here so that's
horrible we should delete that garbage bin right next to it. So you just hit that, and hit the frame, that's confirming
do you want to delete the frame yes I do so I'm gonna hit Menu/Ok and that covers it.
thank you so much for watching if you have any questions feel free to post
