Hello Jerryy, Sorry for this mis-interpretation: I now understand your point of view and agree wtih you. (Yet I still hope s.o. can help me with this Wi-Fi frustration 😉 ) Ayapos

Hello Jerryy, I understand your point of view, nevertheless manufacturer of reseller can not say their product are limited in time or usage. It is not their interest. Once again I speak with a +30 years background in electronics design. On the other hand, as you say, camera manufacturer have - I think - studied the pros and cons regarding their technical proposals, and their products. In any case, I still hope s.o. can help with what I consider as an issue 😉 Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and opinion. Ayapos

As a matter of fact, I happen to be an electonic designer. According to my REX, professional connectors admit about 500 insertion/extraction. Consumer ones usually have a 100/200 cycle lifetime.

Hello Jerryy, Thanks for your reply! You're right, RAW files are roughly 100 MB while the associated JPEG only weighs 12 MB. If I've asked my question it's because the USB connector cap on the body is attached to this body with two thin pieces of rubber (or plastic?) and seem very fragile. Furthermore, the body USB connector has a low insersion/extraction lifetime (100 to 200) . Therefore, the less I use the USB port, the longer the mechanical elements will last. Back to my proposal - transfering from body to smartphone via Wi-Fi has only a 63 Mbps speed: it means that the transter time would be 1.5 s for each JPEG file which is totally acceptable. The drawback is that only JPEG can be transfered.. Hence my frustation. Has anyone have other ideas to thransfert RAW files to smartpone or PC via Wi-Fi? Ayapos

Hello all, I have worked on this topic, it turns out that: - One can transfer JPG files to any smarphone/Tablet running with Adnroid, - It is then possible to set an FTP server on the smartphone/tablet accessible by any PC. Drawbacks: only JPG and NO RAW can be transfered. It needs a double wi-fi connection , one for the camera, one for the PC. Furthermore, I have discovered that the Fujifilm GFX50S II has only a 63 Mbps Wi-fi link, hence a veeeeery slow transfer of the pictures. It really is a pain in the ***! Once again, if someone can give me any advices to directly download RAW files to a PC, I'd be very glad. Thanks in advance 4 ur reply. Regards, - Ayapos

Hello all, I own a GFX50S II and would like to transfer pictures from my camera to my PC using a wireless connection (Wi-Fi). It seems that the PC application PC Autosave could do the job, I can't have it working... Is this app really compatible with GFX50S II? Is there any alternative? Thanks in advance for your replies.
