Remote releases/intervalometers and separate dedicated flash for X-S1

[seany65]

Yet another thread from me that I don't where to put, lol.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any info about Remote releases and intervalometers, and dedicated flashes that are suitable for a Fuji X-S1 camera?

I'm aware of the EF 42 (which seems to have rather flimsy build and annoying controls) and the EF 20 which doesn't really seem to be what I want. I also know of the EF-60 but it's expensive and I'm not sure how compatible it is.

As usual any help would be much appreciated.

I just checked camranger.com and they don’t list the X-S1 only the XH-1. I don’t know what is different, perhaps it would work?

I have one of their older models and you can do some pretty neat stuff with it.

Glenn2, Thanks for looking.

I've just had a quick look at the "support, compatibility" page of the fujifilm x-.com website and they don't mention the X-S1 either, but they do list the X-half on that page. I did the the X-S1 manual from them so they do acknowledge that the camera does exist even if they don't like it enough to keep other info on it. Before I bought my camera I emailed them about whether the X-S1 had a way of altering the Noise Reduction setting and they didn't know!

I've just bought a Fujifilm RR-80 remote release and a JJC TM-K remote release/intervalometer for my Fujifilm X-S1 and both work well as plain releases foor autofocus and firing the shutter and neither needs batteries for that. I've not tested the JJC for it's other functions yet but I need my reading glasses and magnifying glasses to read the print on the leaflet.
