After updating my X-T10 yesterday the camera said that the card was not formated in spite that I had done that several times. I tried with two different cards. Both cards worked fine in my updated X-T1. Turning off and on my X-T10 didn't help. The camera would not take pictures and kept giving the same message. When I remowed the battery and put it back the problem disappered. The camera works now. I think this may be a bug in the new Firmware? I've never seen anything like this before.

Best regards Audun Sjoeseth

Sounds like the SD card wasn't seated correctly. When you reinserted the battery you probably nudged the SD card into place. I've done that a few times with the X-T10; not gotten that specific error, but accidentally released the SD card or battery when changing the other.

Can't say I've had any issue with the firmware update.

No, it can't be that. I changed between the two cards several times.

We might THINK that when one says “ Erase ...Move to the trash and disappear! ”  ALL that it ever was a digital file has disappeared in quantum spacetime... but the sad reality is that it has been simply made invisible to us.

 

You can make a lot of things visible again on an hard disk or card even if you told the hard disk to put things in the wastebasket and “ BE GONE FOREVER!"

 

It is possible that not everything has been “ erased” or made invisible to the satisfaction of one camera while it didn’t to another.

 

Formatting a card doesn’t wipe clean the card either! It just removes the elements which make possible the booting.

no other person, as far as we presently know,  has reported here the type of problem that you have encountered. By reporting it you might have found other people in similar situations but apparently there were none, among those who are on this forum and have read this thread up until now. So, at least for the time being, it appears to be a transient problem which might have multiple explanations and probably affected you and you alone.

 

 

The only answers here were:

yes, but again, you were the only one who had this, there must be several other forum members who did the same upgrade and reported no problem of this nature.

 

It is a freak event.

 

Few days ago I was shooting, before the update, and all of a sudden the camera ( X-E2) tells me that the card inside the camera ( shot before several pictures on that card and never took it out) wasn’t formatted...

 

It had worked fine before, I switched off the camera and switched it on again and the “ problem” never ever materialized again.

 

Things like these might have countless reasons. The fact that no one else reported such a thing obviously means that you problem was an exception rather than being a rule.

One of disturbing things one must accept in the digital age of photography is that cards simply go bad and throw random errors. They will fail without warning, without apparent reason, and usually at the worst possible moment - during a shoot who they are filled with irreplaceable images. This is your lucky day. This is the warning one usually does not get. Do yourself a favor. Take the card, put a big red question mark on it in red sharpie marker, and put it in your bag to use only as an emergency spare.

My hope is that Fujifilm read this post.

 

 

 

...and what do you think they would do even if they had?

 

There are no indications that this wasn’t a freak occurrence otherwise other people would have reported a problem.

 

It might very well be something that might belong to a defect of your type of card and your type of card alone. It might be a malfunction of your computer or of your camera not of the software.

There could well be an issue with the firmware in certain situations.

Unfortunately we do not have data from every XT-10 owner who has completed the update.

 

As of yet no-one else hear has reported the issue  as the issue went away after removing and replacing the battery, I would tend to think it was a local issue

 

perhaps the battery was not seated properly and not enough voltage was reaching the SD cards or something
​In the FAQ it recommends removing and re-inserting battery to fix temporary camera faults; I have not done the research, but perhaps removing the battery triggers a hard reset/restart in the camera

 

I hope it does not happen again for you, but if it does keep a record, as it could be a more serious fault specifically to your camera

The battery managed to uppgrade the firmware, so I think it must have been properly seated.

      pocket wizard and XT5?

      By LBAbrams · Posted

      Has anyone successfully used pocket wizards with an XT5? I cannot get it to fire.  Do Fujis and pocket wizards get along? Thanks in advance for your wisdom on this, kind readers!

      Transfer X-T5 for PC wi fi...

      Grzegorz, Go to the Networking Setting in your camera menu (the last one at the bottom - unless you have a My Menu then that is the last one). There, go to Network Setting and choose the SSID (name) of your WiFi network, type in the password, choose "SET". If you have a functioning DHCP server on your network, the camera should get its IP address (and Subnet_Mask and Gateway). If not, you can enter these manually. It is a little tricky, there will be some zeros already here, move the cursor after the zero and use DEL to delete it and make space in the input fields for your own correct values. If you do not know what to enter, have a look at values in the network settings of your computer and use the same except for the IP address, try some fairly higher number, hopefully you hit an unused one. Usually the values would be something like IP: 192.168.1.188, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway IP: 192.168.1.1  or something like that, take clues from your computer. The camera and computer must be on the same network. Then in Connection Mode on the camera, choose Wireless Tethering Fixed. And half-press the shutter to exit the menu and get in shooting mode. The red LED should be blinking. If you can look at your network devices, e.g. on your router, you should see the camera there. You can see check the camera settings in the camera menu in the INFORMATION item of the Network Setting menu to see the MAC address of your camera and look for it in the list of devices on your network.  Then use the tethering in your software, e.g. in Capture One. The camera may not show immediately, take a shot and then it should show in the list of available cameras. Good luck. Report back how did you fare.  PS If you have a Windows machine, you need to have Bonjour installed and running. Macs have it.

      X-T30 II Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display viewmode not working

      By grizzski · Posted

      Hey all, I just got my first camera. The X-T30 II. It seems the Eye Sensor + LCD Image Display view-mode is doing the exact same thing as just the Eye Sensor view-mode setting. Any ideas why this is or what's supposed to be happening? Firmware Version: 2.04

      Problem with multi exposure on XT5

      By George_P · Posted

      What GordW said. You have to put the drive mode dial to "S" - Single Frame. If you have it on CL, CH, BKT or Panorama (or HDR), the Multiple Exposure option will be greyed out in the shootng menu. On my X-T5 it works in RAW + JPG and also in JPG only. When Multiple Exposure is switched on, the image quality cannot be set to RAW only. If it was set to RAW only before switching Multiple Exposure On, image quality defaults to RAW+Fine. The result is JPG. After each shot press MENU/OK and after the last one press DISP/BACK.
