Not surprised it doesn't "drag in" image ratings in RAF (raw).

 

Curious....how about in jpeg?

 

Note to Fuji: Hey it's nice you guys allow us to rate images "in camera", but it's value is questionable if it isn't available in post processing software like LR.

well you shouldn't be surprised, since you can rate Canon RAWs, for instance, in camera.

Today, the service emailed me, that there is no software that can read the rating. WHATT?? So its just a useless toy. You cant even filter them in-camera, so maybe to export them via WIFi to your tablet. Nothing. Unbelievable.

My dealer told me, Silkypix can read fuji stars, but i'm waiting for their answer, and i wont buy a software just for the rating. Some talk about exiftool, bit that seems to be for coders or something...

Yeah it's really annoying. I used the rating system a lot when I shot with Canon but I've run into the same issue you have with Fuji. I really wish there was an easy fix for it but I couldn't find it. If that new plugin announced today fixed this issue I would certainly buy it, but it seems it's only for importing film simulations for RAW photos. That's still a big help, but I rarely shoot in RAW anyway. I'm more concerned with the ratings so I can easily and quickly pull up specific photos when I sit down to edit.

 

Edit: the developer for that plugin mentioned on his site that it will support the rating system soon. Not sure if it'll work for JPEG images or not but it will work for ratings on RAW images.

    • 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. 
    • Thank you. I will research it.
    • 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.
    • 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.
