Regarding the details of No.1 download the “X-E5 New Features Guide[Ver.1.10]” from our website.

The wireless communication security is enhanced while camera is connecting with a smartphone application or external device wirelessly.

After updating the firmware, security will be enhanced, so the connection procedure with the smartphone application will be changed, or the “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” setting menu on the camera will be deleted (see section, <Changes after firmware update> below for details).

< Changes after firmware update >
1) The procedure for pairing the camera with a smartphone is changed.
2) “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” option in the “SHOOTING SETTING”, “MOVIE SETTING”, and “PLAY BACK MENU” are removed.
3) “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” option is removed from the functions assigned by the following operation flow in the “Setup Menu”.
・Operation flow: “BUTTON/DIAL SETTING” ➔ “FUNCTION (Fn) SETTING”
4) “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” option is removed from the functions assigned by the following operation flow in the “Setup Menu”.
・Operation flow: “BUTTON/DIAL SETTING” ➔ “POWER ZOOM LENS FUNCTION (Fn) SETTING”
5) “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” option is removed from the “Fn1 BUTTON SETTING” menu in the BUTTON/DIAL SETTING” of the “Setup Menu”.
6) The instax printer SQUARE Link™ is supported so you can connect your camera with instax printer SQUARE Link™ and print images.

< Precautions After Firmware Update >
1) Network security level is improved by updating your smartphone app (FUJIFILM XApp and FUJIFILM Camera Remote) and compatible cameras and instax™ printers (mini Link3, SQUARE Link, Link WIDE) to the latest version, since the latest versions change the network setting menus and connecting procedures to enhance the wireless communication security.

Be aware that the security level remains unchanged in the following case.
* In case that the camera’s firmware is the current version, and the smartphone application (FUJIFILM XApp or FUJIFILM Camera Remote) is the latest version.
* In case that the instax™ printer (mini Link3/SQUARE Link/Link WIDE) is the current version.

2) After updating the camera firmware, if the smartphone application (FUJIFILM XApp or FUJIFILM Camera Remote) is not updated to the latest version, you cannot connect to the camera. Be sure to upgrade your smartphone application software to the latest version.
