I have the XT3 and just started using an XT5. My normal workflow is to preview my images on my ipad in the Files app before importing to Lightroom. Files from the XT5 only show up as icons with the file number and size data. No thumbnails and no ability to view the images. I tried previewing in Lightroom instead. The same thing happened in preview mode. Icons only and no images. I could import the files into Lightroom and see the images that way, but I have no idea what I'm importing until it opens. As you can imagine, this is not a viable workflow. Anybody besides me experience this? It's the weekend, so I can't reach Fuji support.

Apple has not yet updated their file system(s) to support viewing X-T5 raw files in the Finder / Files app. Some third party apps which rely on Apple’s background processes will not show the files either.

Usually this does not take a terribly long time to get fixed, but it does depend on Apple getting around to doing that. You might drop them a line.

I spoke with Apple support yesterday and they acted like deer in the headlights and eluded it was a Fujifilm issue. Do you suppose Adobe is the same in regards to not being updated to support the XT5 files in Lightroom?

Adobe does say the X-T5 is supported in newer versions of Lightroom, but I do not know if that is only for the desktop versions of LR, Adobe may rely on Apple’s os for the iPad version.

I think you will find large corporations tend to point fingers at each other as to who is at fault, and eventually a fix is sent out. Apple has, in the past, waited to release camera support updates until they release an update that supports a lot of new cameras at the same time.

The XT5 images are supported by Lightroom on the iPad - the only place you will see the blank square is when you are importing from the Photos app which doesn't support the XT5. Once the files are imported into Lightroom from Photos you will see them. Apple takes a long time to support new Fujifilm cameras - X-H2 isn't supported yet either (and of course compressed raws aren't supported from any Fujifilm X series camera).

Greybeard thank you so much for your response. I went back and realized I had not tried uncompressed files in Lightroom. I had tried both in the Apple Files app, but not LR. I tried the uncompressed after your response and all is good. I can see previews!!! THANK YOU!!! You ROCK!!

      LUT doesn't works on resolve

      By Don Barar · Posted

      Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don

      Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!

      I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !

      First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
