Shutter button is stuck or jammed.

No idea about access to settings on that camera but can you access settings menu and do a factory reset?
Or perhaps remove the battery for say 30mins and see if that stops it's bad behaviour?

Sounds like this would be worth investigating

Have you tried pulling the battery and waiting before putting it back in???

I'd try turning it on in firmware update mode and seeing what it does, then re-do the firmware.

Apparently by playing around with all buttons removing and re-inserting the battery, he can get it to stop. However as soon as it's switched off and back on again it starts constantly taking photos again.
It's still under warranty so he's ringing Fuji tomorrow and sending it back to them.

Proper thing to do if it's under warranty, would suck if he'd bought it used from ebay or so

Might seem like it is but has something dropped down the little hole in the centre of the button. That's where you can screw an old style shutter release cable in.

The X-T1 doesn't have a threaded shutter button though
Suspect it's a hardware failure. We had the reverse with an X-M1 where the shutter button could be pressed, but it simply wouldn't take a photo. Fuji replaced the main PCB.
