NOTE: For this video, I purposely spoke much slower than usual. This is because I wanted it to be useful for many of my international viewers also, for whom English is a 2nd language. I also decided not to break it into 4 separate videos, as I wanted a complete guide to be in one place. There's a detailed table of contents that you can use to skip to the topic you need and a 2X speed ability if you want it to go faster! 👍

As a Fuji owner - this is hands down the BEST CHANNEL.

Thank YOU for taking the time to put in all the work and editing to educate and entertain.

[FlorianCortese]

Excellent and thorough review, Chris! Thank you so much. I know this was an extremely labor intensive and frustrating effort to produce this extremely helpful video. Your hard work and effort and devotion to putting otr accurate and educational videos does not go unnoticed! You are a Rock Star!!

[jackcopland]

Holy Hooley, what an incredible amount of work you put into this vid! Thank you so much for the effort that will help us bring the Fuji app into our regular shooting workflow. I truly believe Fuji also owes you big time for what you have done and would hope that they give serious consideration in providing recognition for that work and time. Again, thank you.... 😃

[danielhutter]

You are my Fuji-hero! Thanks for your support. Best regards, Daniel

[moserbua]

That is unbelievable. You are THE number one channel. The way you are presenting this and your calm style. Thank you from the bottom of the heart. Greetings from Austria

[mohsinsadiq]

Man where would we be without this channel I shudder at the thought

[rd.gerdes]

Chris, I can't imagine how you can deliver such value consistently. I really enjoy the channel, and this video is maybe the most informative and helpful of them all. Thanks SO MUCh for all you must invest in learning this and then figuring out how to illustrate it as you share it with us. Great value. Thanks.

[Kiite]

I do have to say though, the app has been invaluable on my roadtrip where I don't have a laptop or access to a computer. Being able to quickly go through all the photos and get the file names for pictures I love is wonderful for when i transfer the RAW files to my phone for cloud upload on the road. It has saved me literal hours!

[jasonf]

This video is absolutely amazing. The number of quirks and “heads up” moments you found is incredible. Thanks so much!

[kungvubeatmaking]

Thank you for your constant work on Fuji related topics. I learned so much watching your channel and you guided me to other channels worth watching. Again, thank you.

[tee_ef_em]

You knocked it out of the park! Kick your feet up, relax, and have a beer. You deserve it. Can't wait to play with my app's settings now. Incredible valued added. Thank you for your time on this, man!

[davidfromdownunder]

I did ALMOST make it to the end, I snoozed with about 10 minutes to go. That was ALOT of info to take in BUT I appreciate the effort you took to help the Fujifilm photographic community 👍

[stefanpecen]

Being greenhorn in photography, please, accept my deepest gratitude. It really was extremely helpful.

[chumito]

Super thorough and well paced. Thank you for putting this together!

[mac]

Excellent, well done. You fulfil a role that Fujifilm should be doing but don’t. I don’t know what I and many others would do with out you… thank you Chris for all that you do!

[eugenegirshtel]

Bravo! What a comprehensive review and guide. I can't imagine how long it must have took to produce the video. I can assure you, this video will be the go-to video for the Fuji app.

[christinamichelle]

You have the best tutorials for Fuji on YouTube. Thank you

[stephenschmid]

Chris, thank you, thank you, thank you!! Really appreciate your putting together this comprehensive guide to the new app. Like most Fujifilm users, I have been frustrated on numerous occasions with the old app, and this new one is a big improvement. And your guide will help us all get the most out of it. Big kudos for this video!!

[ridebicycles]

Thank you so much for all your hard work! I really appreciate how well structured your videos are generally, and here specifically. You helped me learn how to use my Fuji camera, and now the XApp as well. You are a fantastic communicator. Bravo!
