Hi;

This has to be me, but I have the X-T1 connected to a MacBook Pro running Lightroom CC 2015 with all updates.

 

I plug the camera in and seek to import - Camera shows up in Lightroom as "USB PTP Camera" but "No Photos Found".

SD card imports directly OK.

 

Is it me?

 

Thanks

Bob

Bob, I use an X-T2, so it maybe a little different. I tried out connecting my camera directly to my iMac and in Lr CC the X-T2 shows up as a device, and the photos show up, plus I can download them to Lr plus the computer!

 

Check in Lr that it treats Jpegs and RAF files separately, try selecting show both in Lr and see if that makes a difference!

 

If memory serves me well there used to be two settings for the USB! PTP and some thing else(can't remember what it was called), I seem to recall that was changed later! Check the X-T1 menu system!

 

My camera shows in Lr as X-T2.

 

PS "Mass Storage" as the other USB setting springs to mind!

Thanks, Mike;

No luck so far - Played with all the settings to no avail.

I also have a Panasonic TZ-100 which plugs in, is recognised and downloads pics.

 

Camera is sometimes recognised as XT-1 but not always and when it is recognised, still doesn't show photos.

 

Frustrated of Sandhurst :(

Bob, 

 

I sometimes have the same issue, on this moment i looks (to me) more the sequence you have power up the XT1 before or after starting LR?

 

I am sure but you can give a try, best regards,

 

Peter

    • 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.
