Fuji X-T50 GeoTag

If there was one thing that drove me round the bend with my Fuji X-T20, it was geo-tagging my photos. I like to see where they were taken when I look at them later in my Photos app. Just like you can when you take a photo with your iPhone. I used to use a GeoTagging app in my phone, but to say it was flaky as hell, especially when adjusting for time zones, was an understatement.

The X-T50 can connect to the newer XApp on my phone for direct geotagging – I t’s too new for the X-T20. I wondered how well it’d work. You have to make sure it’s connected when you start shooting, in theory. A few times I forgot. But at the end of my two week Mexico trip, only two photos hadn’t been geotagged. Importantly, and unlike the old Geotag app I used, the photos were actually tagged to the actual location they’re at.

I also just updated the firmware through the app. It was easy. This is a big win for the X-T50 in my opinion. I remain happy with my upgrade.
