Title: Fuji Movie Focus Mode
Post by: greybeard on January 22, 2020, 08:23:13 AM
We currently have two Fuji Focus Mode tags (FocusMode and FocusMode2).

When changing Focus Mode (using the front switch on X series cameras) they are set as follows:
AF-M - Focus Mode = Manual and Focus Mode 2 = AF-M
AF-S - Focus Mode = Auto and Focus Mode 2 = AF-S
AF-C - Focus Mode = Auto and Focus Mode 2 = AF-C

When taking movies there does not seem to be any means of differentiating between these three settings.

In all cases the Focus Mode is set to 65535 (and currently displays as "Unknown") and Focus Mode 2 is missing.

The following seems more appropriate and gets rid of the Unknown (although, unfortunately, it does not provide more useful detail).

    0x1021 => {
        Name => 'FocusMode',
        Writable => 'int16u',
        PrintConv => {
            0 => 'Auto',
            1 => 'Manual',
            65535 => 'Movie Focus',
        },
    },

OK, thanks.  I'll add 65535 => 'Movie', to the list of values.
