Thanks. I upgraded last night...funny, first firmware upgrade Ive done, I was behind, haha.
I should also update the FW on my lenses.
I saw the LUT, I'll look in to that a little later. Not a huge priority for me since I don't really use this camera for video. yet I was excited to see the internal flog and 120fps at 1080.
<Notice>
We have discovered malfunctions in the firmware ver.4.00 released on May 8 2018. Therefore, we withdrew the firmware ver.4.00.
<Details of the Problem>
1.When RAW files, which were taken by X-T2 (before firmware ver.4.00), are converted in camera (ver.4.00) or by "FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO", they are not converted properly.
2.When pressing the shutter button halfway under certain conditions, the live view can flicker.
3.In rare cases, a hang-up can occur.
We will inform you later of the detail of fixed firmware for the malfunctions.
As a temporary solution for customers who have upgraded the firmware to ver.4.00, we have prepared a new firmware version of 4.01 whose functions are same as the ver.3.00.
Please update your camera to ver.4.01 to avoid the malfunctions.
*Ver.4.01 doesn't include the additional functions of ver.4.00.

go to either of the big Fuji pages on FB and its the same threads over and over...What bag do you use, what lens should I get, what software is everyone using.
There is this over arching conspiracy that LR doesnt handle RAF files as well as other apps. And perhaps it doesnt sharpen fine detail as well as others in some cases...you’d think these guys were all selling prints for thousands of dollars with their whining...but no, typical pixel peepers who put 100% of their crap online. I’m just over it. Need a break.

the a7III group on Facebook is pretty bad too... I had to leave. And yeah, basically all those same questions you mentioned. I mean, I get that it can be a valid question for some, but what drives me nuts is that it's asked over and (fucking) over again, why can't people learn to fucking search?? Ironically, it's not as bad with the a7RIII and a9 groups, my analogy is that the a7III group = freshman class in HS
