   The firmware update Ver.2.10 from Ver.2.00 incorporates the following issues: Regaring operations of items below from 1 through 5, refer to “X-E1 New Features Guide” below.

   X-E1 New Features Guide [Ver.2.10 or later] (PDF: 435KB) <Notice> In this firmware upgrade, all the camera settings including date will be reset to the factory setting.

   • New functionality allowing you to edit image file names An image file name (DSCF*) is automatically allocated to each picture when shooting, this can now be changed to your file name of choice.
   • This added functionality is useful when organizing the images after shooting, and sorting the images into groups.
   • It can be changed to a 4-letter file name when selecting “sRGB” and​ a 3-letter file name when selecting “Adobe RGB” for the color space.
   • See the exposure setting in live-view and histogram The images and histogram will reflect current exposure levels (with the shutter speed and aperture set during manual exposure also displayed on the image). In scenarios where the live view and the final shot will appear differently, eg: when using flash, this setting can be turned off.
   • Change of numbering for images shot using continuous shooting When shooting using continuous shooting, only the first image is currently displayed in full screen and subsequent frames are displayed in small on the bottom right, and the file number was set as “S+7-digit number”. With the new firmware, all frames in continuous shooting are displayed as full screen shots in playback. The file number has also been altered to follow numerically as per standard single shots, thereby allowing uniform management of images after shooting.
   • Aperture and shutter speed can be changed once AE lock is selected The aperture or shutter speed can be changed while maintaining exposure (EV value) with ​the AE lock button. The photographer has the ability to tweak settings down to the very last moment before shooting.
   • The default and maximum sensitivity and minimum shutter speed can be set when ISO AUTO is selected When selecting “AUTO” in the ISO setting, users can also set standard ISO, Maximum ISO and a low-speed shutter limit. The low-speed shutter limit has been extended to 1/500 seconds.
   • Improvement of RAW file conversion function When developing RAF images in-camera using the built-in RAW file converter, the firmware upgrade improves the flow by taking you back to the original RAF image once the conversion has been done, whereas before it left you with the converted JPG file on screen and the user had to go back to the next RAF file manually.
