pal2tech Fujifilm Companion

pal2tech is the free companion app for Fujifilm photographers and fans of the pal2tech YouTube channel. Whether you shoot an X-T5, an X-S20, an X100VI or a GFX, it puts the channel's most useful guidance in your pocket, and now it reads your camera too.

CAMERA X-RAY
Plug your Fujifilm camera into your phone with a USB cable and the app reads its settings. See every setting the camera shares, in the camera's own words, with a plain explanation of what each one does, the pal2tech videos about it, and a link to the page of Fujifilm's own manual for your model. Plug in again later and X-ray tells you what changed. "Try this!" asks about settings that often cause surprises, such as a self-timer left on or the camera in manual focus, so you can decide. Camera X-ray only reads your camera. It never changes a setting.
Works with the X-T5, X-T4, X-T3, X-T2, X-H2, X-H2S, X-H1, X-S20, X-S10, X-Pro3, X-Pro2 and X-M5, on an iPhone 15 or later or an Android phone, with a USB data cable. Set the camera's CONNECTION MODE to USB TETHER SHOOTING AUTO.

OFFICIAL FUJIFILM SETTING GUIDE
With a camera connected, every setting it lets you adjust is listed with what it does, where it lives in the menus of your model, and the manual page for it.

EVERY VIDEO, READY TO SEARCH
Browse the full pal2tech video library with fast search, category filters and plain-language summaries of what each video covers. Search also finds the sections of the Fujifilm camera manual about a term. Save what you want to come back to, and tap through to watch on YouTube.

FILM SIMULATIONS, EXPLAINED
Explore Fujifilm's film simulations with clear descriptions, color swatches and what each one is good for. Point your phone's camera at a scene and Aim and Recommend suggests a look to try, with alternates and a link to recipes from trusted sources. A creative starting point, just for fun.

FIELD TOOLS BUILT FOR FUJIFILM
Calculators tuned to your camera's sensor: equivalent focal length and angle of view, depth of field in feet or meters, a long exposure and ND filter helper with a built-in timer, and an astrophotography shutter guide. Pick your sensor with one tap: Fuji X, GFX or full frame.

THE RIGHT GEAR
Every current and recent Fujifilm X and GFX camera and lens, each with its product page, its user manual and a shop link, alongside the exact kit Chris uses.

GUIDES AND RESOURCES
Curated collections of videos for common topics, plus answers to the questions Fujifilm shooters ask most.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no sign-in and no tracking. Your favorites, settings and camera readings stay on your phone. Aim and Recommend looks at the scene on your device, and your photos are never saved or sent anywhere. The app is free, with no ads.
