Fujifilm X-E3 JPEG size problem

Hi all. I'm relatively new to Fujifilm system but I read and watched quite a bit tutorials on handling with the X mount cameras. I had for a while Fuji X-T2 and X-E2 and never had this problem before but now with X-E3 I just can't set the JPEG image quality to a normal size. I tried all possible setting but usually M3:2 and Fine JPEG which gives you the highest quality. Unfortunately without success.... All images come at size between 300Kb and 600Kb and a few times 900Kb-1Mb. I tried also RAW, RAW+F and I still got those tiny images. I just can't figure out what the problem could be... I started thinking there might be something wrong with the camera... Has this ever happened to anyone and how did you resolve this issue?

Thank you in advance

M3:2 reduces resolution to 12 megapixels. For highest quality, you should use L3:2 to get 24 megapixels.

That said, 12 megapixels would normally produce JPEGs somewhere in the neighborhood of 5 megabytes.

So I'm wondering if you're looking at those files on your mobile phone, after transferring them from your camera using the app. If so, you probably have the Resize for Smartphone option turned on, which transmits only 3 megapixels to the phone. If that's the case, the files on the SD card will still be full-sized.

      Photos on Angelbird AV Pro SX 160GB vs SE 512GB

      By Tomek666 · Posted

      So I ended up getting and X-H2 over the X-T5 because of a good deal that came up.  Needing to buy a card, I needed to figure out,  what is the real impact of a card's speed for photos?   In particular, I'm going to test how shooting at 15 FPS will differ between: Angelbird - AV PRO CFexpress B SE - 512 GB and Angelbird AV PRO CFexpress SX - 160 GB. How many shots can I get off before buffer fills, and how long does it take for the buffer to clear?    MOP: X-H2 Factory rest, card formated, no lens (body cap on), performance boost on, manual exposure, mechanical SS @ 1/8000, IS off, Shoting RAW Compressed Lossless with only one card in. Held shutter release till buffer filled, and used stop watch to see how long for buffer to clear. Subtracted two frames from total taken as that's how long it takes me to release the trigger once the buffer is full. Repeat 2x for sanity check.   ***TEST RESULTS***   ~~~64GB Lexar Pro SD 150MB/s~~~ 75 shots to fill buffer, 36 Seconds to clear it   ~~~Angelbird AV Pro SX 160GB~~~ 251 shots to fill buffer, 5 Seconds to clear it   .~~~Angelbird AV Pro SE 512GB~~~ 232 shots to fill buffer, 4 Seconds to clear it     ***Conculsion***   If burst shooting an X-H2 at 15 FPS is your thing, buy the Anglebird 512GB SE for the same price as the 160GB SX.   Below is a shot on X-T2 w/ the Fuji 70-300. I manged to fluke it off with a dead battery by turning the camera off and on again, and squeezing three more shots out (this was the last shot).   Ta for now!

      Have you tried a factory reset? Maybe you changed unintentionally a setting?

      X-s10 with Fujinon 16mm 1.4 autofocus issue

      By Etienne B · Posted

      Hello. I have a x-s10 that I use multiple lenses with. Yesterday I noticed that with the Fujinon 16mm lens I'm having issues auto-focusing. It works on video but not for still images. When I half press the button it focuses a bit then when I release the button it snaps back to the previous focus point. Even though it manages to focus the image is still blurry. Any ideas please. I already did a a major google search and nobody has mentioned this issue. Thanks, Etienne
