X Raw Studio can't find any images on my XT3

Hello from New Zealand. I'm new on this forum. In fact, I'm new to Fujifilm cameras. I was lucky enough to buy a good secondhand XT3 and have been learning how to operate it. So far so good. I have one issue that has me stumped and hope this forum might have some suggestions.

I have newly installed X Raw Studio on my Windows computer and connected my XT3. The computer actually confirms that my XT3 is connected. But X Raw Studio cannot read any of my raw images off the SD card. This is what I have done thus far:

- The camera is set to shoot Fine + Raw;

- I have set the Connection Mode to "USB Raw Conv./Backup Restore" 

- I have reformatted the SD card and checked it is unlocked (Sandisk Ultra 120MB type 1  / 10)

- I have manually copied a Raw image from the SD card to the computer and X Raw Studio reads it fine.

The only thing I haven't done is go out and buy a new SD card. But given that it hasn't had much use and that it worked fine in my Lumix camera I am holding back until I have explored any other suggestions from this forum.

Looking forward to any words of wisdom from this forum. Many thanks in advance.

Cor.

"Thats how it works - its not supposed to process image files on the camera card"

Thanks, Greybeard! I have it sorted now. Funny how the Youtube videos that I watched skipped over the fact that you have to transfer the images to the computer FIRST. After your comment above I watched another couple of Youtubes and one of them finally mentioned that fact. Maybe it is that it is soooo obvious that they omitted it, and I was too dumb to figure it. Anyway, its all good. Thanks again!

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.

      Typically you need to make sure the lens is compatible with the camera, i.e. check the lens compatibility charts for your camera, then make sure the respective firmwares are updated so older issues are resolved. After that, each lens has a manufacturer’s profile which will be embedded into the raw file meta data for the images captured using that lens. From there, it is up to the raw conversion software to apply the lens correction to the image. Different converters do that differently, some automatically, some only if a setting is turned on. For in-camera jpegs, the on-board converter does the corrections automatically, assuming the camera recognizes the lens, it applies a generic profile otherwise. I do not know if that can be turned off or not.
