Hello! I'm a noob to fujifilm need a bit of help.

Long story:

I have a Fuji XT-1 that I bought second hand from a friend, and I have a PC that does not come with an SD card reader. I purchased an sd card reader off amazon that i can stick the card into and get pics that way, however it has been causing me issues. Occasionally the drive wont read and says it needs to be reformatted (which I know not to do). After this happens, it causes the card to no longer be read by my PC or my camera, and the only fix I've been able to do is the command prompt > chkdsk solution. The command prompt fix has worked fine in the past, but I suppose the corruption has built up over time and last week, it became to much and I found that chkdsk had deleted everything on the SD card. I was able to recover the photos using a recovery service but I refuse to keep using the card reader knowing this will continue to be a problem. I know that I can connect my camera to the PC with a usb cable, however when I do so, the camera says "USB" on screen and wont let me select anything, and it does not read on my computer that it is connected, not even in the MyFinePix Import app. Maybe I have the wrong cord or something? It was one I just had laying around that fit my camera, so  I dont know if i need a specialty one or not. 

TLDR: Computer isnt connecting to camera when I have it connected via USB, and camera only says "USB" on screen  OR i need a better quality SD card reader suggestion that wont corrupt my data

Me to I had some problems to connect to PC. Make all the updates of your computer, Fujifilm X Acquire. Operating System, Chipset Drivers, maybe Bios and camera firmware.

Of course you should check for Virus first.

 

You can only access camera Menu when not connected to Computer. Set Connection Setting to USB Card Reader

You might also try Capture One Express for Fujifilm for Free. Check that out! It is great!

      ISO and exposure dial’s misbehaving. Need help

      By Michaelb5 · Posted

      Hey everyone, I am new to the fujifilm system, and I just received my X100vi about 15 days ago, and yesterday I noticed that ISO and exposure dials are acting up. I spent hours watching YouTube videos and reading forms without finding any solutions. Using ChatGPT or Gemini also didn’t help. My issues are the following: If I want to set my ISO at a specific value then the camera LCD/EVF shows a totally different value. For example, I have shutter manual, aperture manual and ISO dial at 6400, the camera shows ISO at 4000, when I take pictures it will show ISO at 4000 and not 6400. When I try to choose another ISO value it will skip some of the available values that are shown on the dial. Another issue I am having is when my exposure dial is not set at specific value, then I cannot set ISO to Auto no matter what value I select on the dial. If I do select the different exposure compensation values, then I choose A for ISO, the camera will activate the front commend dial to manually change ISO values. To get in Auto ISO, the shutter speed cannot be set in auto and the ISO dial should be set at 125, when I turn the ISO wheel, it seems like the numbers are misaligned by one value, If I put the dial on A with shutter speed manual, then it will trigger the front commend dial. The other issue that I am having is when I have Aperture, shutter speed and ISO on manual, If I change the exposure dial compensation + or - , it actually changes the exposure of the picture as well as the ISO value, which as I understand, if Camera is in full manual, the exposure dial should do nothing. The last issue that I am having, if I do have ISO in manual at a set value, and adjust exposure compensation dial, it alters my ISO instead of my shutter speed or my aperture, even though ISO is in Manual and the other two dials are in Automatic. I am not really sure if all of this is by design and I am just not understanding how everything works together, but it seems really odd how everything changes. Resetting the camera settings didn’t help.

      Remote Release suddenly stopped working

      By FSND · Posted

      I also have the eaxct problem with my X-T5. The remote used to work, but not anymore. I also get the light coming on on the camera back, and autofocus will happen, but no shutter release. Since I use the 2 or 10 seconds timer more I don't know if a firmware update is the cause of this negative change. I actualley only use the wired jack-remote for action release on a tripod.  Did anybody find a cause, and even more assisting, a solution?

      OVF magnification

      By Rich Martin · Posted

      On my XPro 2 the rear command dial, when pressed, can cycle through 3 different magnification levels in the OVF.
