My 32GB SanDisk SD card suddenly stopped showing up on my MacBook Pro the other day. I read a bunch of articles, double checked my finder settings, tried reformatting the SD card in Disk Utility, etc... and no luck. Strange thing is that the SD card works just fine on my Windows computer. But when I insert it into my MacBook Pro, it doesn't register and is unable to mount on Disk Utility. It also doesn't even show up in System Information. I tried connecting my camera directly to the USB as well, and that doesn't work... any guesses on what else might be going on here?

Suuuper frustrating (and odd). Thanks!

I just ungraded to Big Sur (from Mojave). The  SanDisk 32GB card from my Canon mounts fine in my USB card reader. The same model card coming from my Fuji X-T30 does not show up in Finder. The Mac knows it is there, because when I remove it from the card reader I get the message ["" was removed without dismounting]. The card used to show up as Untitled (or similar) under Mojave but now it doesn't show up at all. (The Canon card gets a name from the camera when it is reformatted). I know I could name the card in the computer, but the name would be wiped on formatting. Does anyone know of a workaround, r if Fuji is revising the firmware to assign a name to the cards? (The card does not even register when inserted into the slot in the back, but that's something I never use)

After I upgraded my 2019 MacBook Pro to 10.15 Catalina the Finder and Image Capture both fail to read SDXC cards formatted by the XT-2. The cards are Lexar 128GB Professional 1000x UHS-II SDXC Memory Card. Disk Utility can't repair the card, every app that tries to read from the ExFat formatted cards ends up needing to be Force Quit. I can dual boot into Mohave and read the cards fine using Finder, any app works too in Mohave. I could understand incompatibility with third party apps, but this is ridiculous. I can read from Fat32 formatted Compact Flash fine, but the ExFat formatted SDXC cards fail every time. I am using a Sanyo Hyperdrive to connect the SD card to the MacBook Pro. I called Apple Support only to be put on hold for almost an hour trying to reach support personnel for Creative Professionals and then have Apple hang up on me. I have been a lifelong Apple user, but this is alarming. Anyone else having issues like this in Catalina?

Hi steve, did you fix this issue? I upgraded my iMac 5k to Catalina and have the same thing. Lexar Professional SD HC II cards don't appear. I set up my xt-2 to save shots raw/jpg in SD1 and SD2. The card with jpgs works fine, the other doesn't appear in finder or disk utility 😕

thanks

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      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.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      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

      By Trevor R · Posted

      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.
