  1. Not sure if this is the correct forum. I have XT20 and XE1 (and Nikon D300 and D5300) 2 laptops and a desktop all running Debian Buster (10) and the USB connection works fine. Also an INTEL NUC running linux MINT and the USB works fine for all 4 cameras. Now I've bought and assembled a new INTEL NUC and installed Debian 10 again. I've updated the BIOS the D5300 mounts, the D5300 does not mount and needs GTKAM. The 2 fuji cameras also need GTKAM - and will not automount. Any suggestions as to why the fuji cameras automount on some machines and not others, when the operating system is identical (apart from MINT) I've run out of ideas I'm afraid Thanks David
  2. Ive now looked at an XT-1 manual and the same note occurs also on page 3. suggest you try it David
  3. Right I think I've sorted it. In the manual for my XT10 I eventually found - "Control Lock To prevent accidental operation of thr selector Q .......press MENU/OK until -a yellow lock - appears. I've just done some intensive shooting and had not of the previous problems. I expect something like that is in the XT-1 as well. bottom of Page 3 in the XT1- manual
  4. I don't have an XT-2 - but do have an XT-10. But I sometimes get the same problem - reddish/pink files. I'm shooting normally and the colour balance is OK - and then all of a sudden pink pictures. If I enter the colour menus I see that the grid has moved to the far right (pink/red) side. Somewhere in the buttons there's one that automatically seems to do this. I haven't discovered which one it is. The buttons on the back a quite small and it's easy to press one by mistake and change an all important setting. I wouldn't mind betting that this is what you are doing - pressing a button inadvertantly David
  5. Thanks. Yes a GPS is useful and I bought one (rather clumsy) by my Nikon D300. And I've briefly tested your suggestion on my XT10 and it works well. Thanks David

  7. Thanks for this something else for me to try. David
  8. Thanks - I tried to geotag app and it seems to work fine. Hadn't come across this app before - so thanks. David
  9. Thanks again. Your first suggestion is what I do already. The second one of using a Fuji Android app I haven't tried because I didn't know it existed. So thanks for that and I'll try it. Is there a specific app you are referring to ? Thanks David
  10. Thanks to all who recently replied. It strikes me - unless I still misunderstand - that the method described by Larry requires the photographer to remember where each thumb nail was taken so it can be catalogued. And that's my problem. Say I go to Italy - and I'm largely interested in taking photos of churches. I visit say 10 towns in 2 weeks and take lots of photos of churches in each town. When I get back home I want to have 10 collections - each with the photos in a given town. But I'll never remember when I get back where each one was - so unless I really am missing something I cannot use this method. -------------- I find it odd that there is nothng at all in the XT10 manual about in camera file management - and no provision made for it either. Except the facility to use on my XT10 (and this isn't even in the FUJI XT10 manual) SAVE DATA SETUP -> EDIT FILE NAME -> s/Adobe/RGB ->EDIT FILE NAME Once I've chose a name then all pictures will have that name until I change it -(Ie move town in my above example) Just checked my D300 manual again - and there a good few pages on this stuff. Since file management is so important for serious photography - I wonder why FUJI seem to largely ignore it ?? Anyway - thanks again David
  11. Thanks again I think I'm being dense because I still do not follow what you are doing. the sentence in your reply "The keywords following the camera identifier allow me to find the folder in the Images→2016 folder," has me confused. At the risk of asking too much - could you give a step by step reply of what you do and how oyu do it. sorry to be thick Thanks again
  12. Thanks for the reply. I think you are saying that I can create new folders as I proceed ?? If so how - I haven't discovered how to do this on by XT10. And the manual says nothing about this at all. Thanks David
  13. Recently bought a Fuji XT10 .I've still got my Nikon D300 and lenses, but wanted something lighter when travelling. Generally I'm highly satisfied - but haven't yet found a good way of handling many hundreds of photos - and I guess I'm missing something. I've discovered how to name photos - even though I don't thik it's in the manual. But the thing I really like on my D300 - and cannot find on my XT10 is a way to creat new folders as I shoot. So I'm in City A - take say 200 photos and they all go into the City A folder Then I go to City B - make a new folder - and the photos go into this new folder. Back to City A - and it's easy to make the City A folder active. and so on for City C,D and etc. So when it comes to processing several thousand picture on my return - I've already got the pictures all in their correct folders. I find the post processing selection much more cumbersome and tedious with my XT10 Anyone got a good solution - or have I just missed how to creat folders - which is really useful for travel photograpghy ? Thanks for any ideas David
