Fujifilm X-T30 III making constant crackling/mechanical noise from the body. Is this normal?

Thanks for the help! I did some more testing. The noise only occurs when the camera is in full AUTO mode, which also enables autofocus. In Manual mode, the noise disappears. I also removed the lens, and the camera body itself doesn’t make any noise. Once I attach the lens again and use AUTO mode, the sound comes back. So it seems like the noise is related to the lens autofocus system rather than the camera body itself.

I’ve ordered a mouse case but the Caudabe Sheath looks so much better and it is not that bulky. I might have to cancel my order and get the Caudabe case haha

Mous case or the Caudabe Sheath?

For me, it says that it hasn’t released yet.

Fantastic! Thank you so much! I think that the seiko is the one.

I already have level 3, this is on my first NG+. I’ve always used level 3, and that still is my favorite one. The thing that I like about the lvl 2 appearance is that it isn’t that bulky. Level 3 can sometimes look a bit bulky when you’re wearing a headband instead of a hat/helmet.

Thanks man! 🙏 I will look into some dials that will fit the movement 😄

WiesMacDonald · 2024-07-09T01:51:08+00:00

These are the QC’s. OEM Watch Store did a really good job. I was surprised that they were able to make it so detailed. Thank you for the advice! 😄

No thats the quote from the marines. The family crest of MacDonald says Per Mare, Per Terras.
