Important Note for Fujifilm X-T3/X-T2/X-T1/X-T20/X-T10/X-T100/X-E3/X-E2S/X-E2/X-A5/X-A10/X100F/X100T/X70/X30/XF10 users:

For the Fujifilm X-T3 camera (and similar models), do not plug the remote into the 3.5mm headphone or mic jack on the left side (looking from the back). You need to plug it into the 2.5mm remote socket that is hidden behind a flap right above the SD card slot cover on the right side (from the back).
