  1. Its kinda funny anyways tht Fuji won't show you a 100% view of a raw file. Every other Camera I 've owned could zoom in @ 100% regardless of RAW or JPG. I have my 2 Card slots configured as swap/extension (I forgot whats the right term in the menu) So my RAWs and JPGs end up on the same Card and when Card 1 is full, Card 2 will be used. This way I get to see the bigger JPG zoom and dont have to change review slot every time. I guess If you configure the Xt2 so that JPGs end up on Slot 1 and Raws on Slot 2 it may show the 'bigger' Jpgs as default?
  2. I recently stumbled over the same issue! very strange the file is stored exactly 7h before the actual exposure! Interestingly it is only affecting the RAF and not the JPGs, so the RAF is 7h junger than the jpg. I mainly use a Samsung 64 GB Card but the same happens on my 64 GB San Disks as well. But its all fine with the 32 GB Cards. The Time settings on the Camera ( X-T1) are as correct as possible (no travel time zone set). Since the EXIF date is OK, this is not such a big Problem but it is confusing and can be a problem when dealing with the files outside the Lightroom environment and on File system level instead. Anyway a solution would be apreciated...FUJI ?! do you listen?? cheers
  3. hi there just had the same problem. LED light on green when battery inserted but charger not connected and -more importend- the charger stopped working at all. I had my battery in there for over 2 days and still not charged (of course with the charger plugged in ;o) I simply wrote a mail to Fuji Support, got an quick answer and a shipping label to send the charger in and a couple of days later I received a new one. Case closed. But there seem to be a quality issue with these Chargers. And unfortunately not only the Chargers, my X-T 1 had its Mainboard replaced already. All in all i'm a bit less convinced of the fuji qality after this....lets see how long the lenses last with all this 'fly by wire' stuff... so, youre not alone, send it in. the fuji service is fast and friendly.
  4. Nope, screw DNG. although the idea behind may be nice,I just prefer to keep my original RAF Files. And I dont think the Adobe DNG gets more love than the propriatary file formats in the future. What would be really cool thoug is a lossless compressed RAF file format!! Its just hard to believe that my D800 36MP NEF files are around 40 MB and the 16MP Fuji RAFs come in at about 35MB.... Btw, it feels like the RAF import took significant longer than the NEF import to Lightroom...anyone else having this issue? And my Hardware should be sufficient for Lightroom, I have a i7 3820 CPU, 32GB of RAM, a GForce GTX280, and the LR catalog and Preview files are on a fast SSD.....shure not the latest and fastest Hardware money can buy, but i guess its fast enough for some pixel pushing. Back to the Workflow topic: Ive recently seen some tutorials from Jared Platt and although I dont agree to all and everithing he says, there are some very good points I've already picked up. Like Only do positive selections! Never spend time marking the bad pictures, only pick the good ones! Saves a lot of time since there are fewer files to mark and gives a much better feeling since you dont deal with the fails so much. And Syncronize what ever possible. and some more tipps...just check him out on youtube or so
  5. Hi There! Good topic Its alway good to see others Raw Workflow and to rethink the own procedre from time to time. Here's my way of file handling ( I shoot RAWs only for my Nikon gear and just started using my X-T1 with RAW + JPGs - so there is no established WF for this yet) Import RAWs from Card (via an Lexar USB 3 CardReader) usually nothing but the Copyright Infos added at this point Generate Fullsize Previews for a smooth Selecting process - This takes AGES so I usually let it run over night. And NO, LR 6.1 is NOT faster than 5.7 not a tiny bit. Worse Fuji RAFs seems to take even longer than my 36MPx Nikon files. Selecting the keepers. I dont spend time to X-out the bad ones, only picking the good shots (P) and give a star or two for really good ones. I mostly use the Overview Mode (N) or Compare View © to find the best in a series. set the filter to picks only, sometimes i start with the star rated shots first (the 'best of') Developing time. well, I try to get the basic adjustments done for a series of pictures first (with autosync on) and then get into the individual adjustments one by one. Export to Fullsize and a small HD version (with 1080px Height) move the Not picked shots to a _Rejects Folder - this will go to my Rejects Archive for a while Make a 'Export Folder as Catalog' as a Backup for the real archive, including the raws and the _delivery Folders Select all shots that will stay in the main LR Catalog and will make it to the Website or blog (usually the star rated shots) - Invers selection and delete the rest from disk (ONLY after the backup is confirmed) Done. Need to find a clever way for a Raw +Jpg WF. And boy do I regret having updated to LR 6. This is so incedibly slow. When exporting files LR is just unusable. The CPU acceleration is a joke it may speed up things a bit but its buggy:eg. when i use the crop tool i always see a library grid view for a split second, and it takes some 3 seconds to finally be able to crop.and a lot more funky shit......grrrr
