I have the same issue. I included the steps I followed below.

1.

I customised the front dial to change aperture and set the lens to A.

I have the rear dial set to Shutter speed

Result:

Front dial won't change the aperature.

Rear dial will change shutter speed

 

2.

I then customise the front dial to change Shutter speed & Iso

I customised the back dial to change aperture

Result:

Front dial changes shutter speed, when I push the front dial in I can select the ISO, now the front dial changes the Iso

Rear dial won't change aperature

 

I tried this with two fuji lenses.

Something such as this:

https://www.fringeradapter.com/canon-ef-to-fujifilm-x

https://fotodioxpro.com/products/ef-fx-fsn

or similar from one of their competitors might work for you.

Canon EF lenses all operate ‘by wire’, the body tells them how to set the auto-focus and f-stop, so you need an electronic adapter, otherwise they will work but shoot with the f-stop wide open.

p.s. Welcome to the forum.

Yes, the adapter is manual and doesn’t include the electronic contacts. I knew I’d lose autofocus, but I thought it would be it. Manual focus can be handled, but losing aperture control is very limiting.

I went through this same problem some years ago with the X-T2 and bought the first version of the Fringer adapter that jerryy has suggested. It has worked very well - and given decent AF performance as well as controlling the aperture.

Thanks for the reply and for the welcome!

I’ve always been a Canon user, but now I’m migrating to Fuji, I didn’t want to lose my previous equipment, so the adapter is going to help a lot! Thanks for the tip also!

I have one Fuji lens (the 16-50mm kit lens), which is great, but if I can use the Canon lens as well, it helps a lot.

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
