Iridient Developer 3.7.1 and X-Transformer 2.5.1 Updates Fix Fujifilm X-H2S Files Loading Error

Brian has released Iridient Developer 3.7.1 and X-Transformer 2.5.1 updates  today.

These updates contain just a single fix for loading errors that  could occur with some RAF images from the new Fujifilm X-H2S. The X-H2S seems to occasionally store RAF images in lossless compressed mode that contain an invalid RAW metadata field. This incorrect RAF metadata information would cause file validation to fail in Iridient applications and these files would give errors on loading.

The root cause would seem to be a firmware bug with the X-H2S as some RAF files with the same compression format from the same camera body/firmware have correct information and others don’t. So far Brian hasn’t been able to determine any specific trigger causing the bad information to be written. A workaround was found where Brian could just ignore the problematic data and determine the same information using an alternate method that allows these RAF images to be loaded successfully.

The Iridient X-Transformer 2.5.1 update (macOS and Windows) is available here.

Iridient Developer 3.7.1 (macOS only) can be downloaded here.
