Subject: [Leica] Spam (9.031): Fuji XT-1 question

I can?t answer your question that I think is regarding seeing what you just 
shot in the EVF. My X100S will do the same thing. But I accidentally 
discovered something potentially useful. It turns out that the duration of 
that display has choices and it turns out that my camera was set to the 
minimum time: one second. I was shooting action, and that one-second display 
after I pushed the button confirmed that my timing was right. Yet, one 
second was not long enough to be annoying when not needed.

Cheers,

Herb

Question authority and the authorities will question you.
