Fuji X-Pro2 compressed files decoding – Support Request by creators of FastRAW Viewer / RAW digger

lib raw

The creators of RAW digger & FastRAW Viewer are working on a software that should handle compressed Fuji RAW files much faster. Since this is something many X-shooters could profit from and Iliah is asking for feedback, I’m happy to share it here on FujiRumors.

We are preparing an open source release of decompressor as a part of LibRaw. That will allow raw converters, including open source ones like RawTherapee, Darktable, UFRaw to decode FujiFilm compressed raw files.

To thoroughly test the decoder they incorporated it into their FastRawViewer and RawDigger. Please do try it and let them know through support@fastrawviewer.com if there are any files that cause problems.

POLL: Which X-mount Lenses do You Use the Most (max. 2 selections)?

Fuji-POLL-Empty-3-600x444

*Fujifilm Reads You!
See the original FujiRumors Poll, that Fujfiilm used in an official presentation to the Press

MOST SOLD LENS Vs. FAVORITE LENS Vs. MOST USED LENS

I recently told you in the “FR-birthday Quiz“, that the [shoplink 13829 ebay]XF 27mmF2.8[/shoplink] is Fuji’s 2nd most sold X-mount lens of all times (until December 2015).

So, many will own the XF27mm, but is it also the 2nd  most used one? That’s what we could discover today thanks to the Poll launched here by FXF Admin Andreas.

Keep In Mind: it’s not about your favorite lens, not even about the lenses you own… this is all about the 2 lenses you use the most overall.

Feel free to drop your vote here.

happy voting :) ,

Impact of the Earthquake in Kumamoto Prefecture on the operations of FUJIFILM Corporation

2000px-Fujifilm_logo.svg

FUJIFILM Corporation expresses its sincerest sympathies and deepest condolences to the people affected by the recent series of earthquakes centered in the Kumamoto region in Japan.

FUJIFILM Kyusyu Co., Ltd., located in Kikuyo-cho, Kumamoto, has been working toward the resumption of its operations in cooperation with Fujifilm group companies and other support companies. Please see below for the progress FUJIFILM Kyusyu has made in resuming operations.

The company commenced trial operations on April 23. As these trial operations proved successful, the company will continue limited operations.

  • Operations have resumed at the first trial facility. Assuming no massive aftershocks and no significant change to the current situations, FUJIFILM Kyusyu estimates that operations will reach the pre-earthquake production levels by the end of May.
  • The company is continuing to inspect the condition of the stock at its warehouse, and has been shipping products that have passed inspection since April 19.

The intensity and frequency of aftershocks are subsiding. FUJIFILM Kyusyu is doing its utmost to resume all operations, and the Fujifilm group will continue to provide all necessary support.

Your continued understanding and cooperation are most gratefully appreciated.
