Yes, yes it is for the raw X-T3 files.

Put the card in the card reader and plug it into the computer’s port.

Open the app Image Capture and navigate to the folder where the images are. You should see both raf and jpg files listed. Select some raf files and copy them over to your Mac Air’s drive. Or you could just open the card and folders in the Finder and copy the raf files to the Air’s drive.

You should be able to see the image’s thumbnail in the Finder and import them into the Photos app or open them in an editor or the Preview app. If you cannot see the thumbnail in the finder, let us know.

One thing to check, sometime after a firmware gets updated, some settings go back to default values. It sounds like you were saving raw + jpg, so check and make sure the image being saved is still raw + jpg, the setting may have defaulted back to just jpg.

    • Much better indeed! Many places sell light pollution filters, and a while back these actually did work well enough. They are versions of the lenses used in glass blowers’ and welders’ glasses filtering out light from off-green, off-yellow and tungsten lights. Communities and people started using white led lighting in homes, street lights, etc. these filters do not work at all for blocking that. Dark skies when you can get them give the best results.
    • That is so cool, and very clear too!  Thanks Jerry.
    • It must have been some weird glitch in the matrix...I deleted all the uploaded pics and toggled all the fine and raw settings, re-imported and now it works as normal again. Who knows?!🤷🏻‍♂️
    • Thanks Jerry, i must give it a try. I suppose it is better in a place without too much light pollution.
    • It looks like there may be several options that will affect your sequences. [For those reading along, a holy grail sequence is explained here: https://petapixel.com/2018/08/02/how-to-shoot-and-edit-a-holy-grail-timelapse-at-sunset-or-sunrise/ .] I very well sympathize with troubles coming from trying to get remote sequences, but sometimes, well, …, you still have to babysit the camera either in-person or via long distance wifi or ethernet. I noticed several light sources popping up in and out of your Smugmug video. Maybe try using spot metering with the exposure tied to the focus point. As long as no car lights or flashlights, etc. turn on and off inside the focus area, lights outside of the focus area will have far less effect on the overall exposure. You will have to tie the metering to the focus point as explained here: https://fujifilm-x.com/en-gb/learning-centre/which-metering-mode-should-you-choose/ It would be nice if there is a quick-do-this and everything is copacetic, but probably it will take working each part of the issues you are facing one at a time until you can get results you like better. The most troubling part is giving the camera free rein over the shutter speed with other “auto” features turned on as well. Older cameras did not have as much latitude to do as they wanted.
