I am watching this after just having purchased my first X-T3 - you channel is one of the single biggest reasons for me moving to Fujifilm! Thank you so very much for all of the vital work you have put into this channel, it has been fantastically informative and is my go-to reference guide! Enjoy your well deserved rest and please keep up the priceless work that you’re doing!
This is the only channel where I have the notification bell turned on. Great content, always learning new things to try out with my Fuji Camera. This was not the exception! P.S. Too bad this won't work on my XT-1 :(
I have enjoyed using this programme on my Mac. I hope Fujifilm will bring out a version for iPad OS as it would be great when eventually I go travelling again. Would make a great on the road editor.
3:30 I think it does refers to the live preview while your editing the photos with the software (and you may want more speed since the software itself is very slow in communicating with the camera and sending back the conversions). It does not affect final conversion step from RAW to JPEG.
Thanks again. One additional nice feature is that the histogram shows an indicator for where your pointer is. As a editing novice, I found this helpful e.g. when taking portraits where the subject needs a very different exposure level than the background/foreground.
Well, it’s taken me a long time as a Fuji user to get around to thinking about using Fuji X Raw studio and so I thought ‘I’m sure Chris at pal2tech did a video about it’ and , of course, here it is! Love your enthusiasm and clarity of explanation.
I don't know how you do it, but every video is better than the last! I don't even shoot RAW, but I love the idea of adding named profile recipes to my camera!!!
HAHA Chris!! Affectionately aka Wayne Szalinski, but Today went full NEO in the Fuji Matrix 😂 AND THANK U for continuing to distinguish X-T3 from X-T4, it REALLY helps 🙏🏽 super appreciative of the content like DAAMN CHRisSss the content thooooo 🙀🔥
Very helpful! I've been an X100 shooter for 7 years, now with a V, but shoot RAW. Mainly because I don't use JPEGs from camera, even with film sims. Being able to apply those sims to RAW files is great! Why didn't I know this before. PS: Maybe drink de-caf before making your videos? 😎
Thanks a lot Chris!!! This sounds very interesting. I'm gonna try it. About direct hex editing, it shouldn't work because the standard practice is to use CRC, metadata signatures, etc, to detect corruption and tampering. Also, data structures would be different between camera models so the X RAW Studio software would find inconsistencies. But it was worth trying anyway. Thanks a lot again for the video and have a great weekend!!
I've known about this for awhile, but never cared to use it. That is, until you mentioned the X-T4 Custom profiles!!! That is amazing, I have to have to adjust things in camera. Thanks Chris!!!
Thanks Chris for the ever support to the Fuji system. Always my reference when to refresh my knowledge over this system. Well done (again). Cheers Carlos
man.. everytime i look for something fuji specific theres always a video from you popping up, luckily i already know your way of explaining & teaching is so great so i don't have to bother with someone elses contet ;-)
This is absolutely fabulous. You are awesome! You said you can’t save anything aka store on the camera but you saved “Field Brown”. Which I love by the way. 👍👏
I have been meaning to get into X Raw Studio for a while so you’ve convinced me to finally try it out. I’m having an issue with it crashing on my MacBook however. It loads find but when I’m scrolling through photos in a folder it just crashes and I get the usual MacOS error message. The other thing that accompanies this is my X-S10 then starts making a feint high pitched noise. This is only rectified by removing and re-connecting the usb cable.
This video was so informative. I wish there was a way to use it on other Fujifilm files. I definitely don't have the same cameras for some of the raw files I want to play with.
Killer video. Super-competent, dynamic and very engaging. Almost feel like you're going to sell me a Ginsu knife for only 9.99 - kidding. 😉 Fun way to have information delivered. I will using this. Masterfully done.
The quality setting you changed near the beginning is just for the previews, not for the final render. The final render is always the highest quality. When I was playing with the camera profile customization I was editing some of the customization files directly (they’re just XML) I seem to recall that they had serials or some kind of uuid in them to tie them to specific cameras. I wonder if they editing lock out works on a similar principle, as I imagine the camera serial number is in the raw file somewhere too.
I have tried editing the exif on the raw files, including camera serial number. I basically copied all of the camera data from my X-E4 RAF to an X-E3 RAF, no joy.
Very very cool info! Especially about saving custom settings onto your camera from the RS software. Thank you as always for grade A tips and info. Have a good week and until next time. :)
So the photos on the memory card has nothing to do with this, use the files from the computer, the Raw Files, and the Camera is the processor, awesome, your channel is great! Greetings from Germany
Thanks for sharing this video on XRaw Studio. I've been using this program for a very long time and I always talk about it when people suggest using this or that raw converter. I have Ubuntu on my computer so I need to run this in a virtual machine which works just fine. The only problem with XRaw is - as you also stress in the video, that you need to own the camera that took the original photo in order to process it. I went from an X-T2 to an X-T4 and of course that camera won't process any of the X-T2 files.This can be a problem since most people tend to sell off their used gear in order to fund the next upgrade. If you need something that will consistently process your entire gallery, you do need a software raw converter I think. One question for you @pal2tech about that usb power setting. I never turned that off before and have left the camera plugged in for ages. What is the risk with doing that? In fact what does that function even do? Anyway thanks again for sharing and keep making more videos :-)
I have had some success changing the exif data of raw files. I can use X-E4 and X-S10 raw files with my X-T30 II in X Raw Studio without issue. But can’t use X-T4 or X100V. I run into the same issues as you did when trying to hack.
So, is there a technical reason older camera's can't take save profiles direct from XRAW, or is this just a choice Fuji made to not retroactively upgrade that functionality? Could they have made the XT3 work like the XT4 here with a firmware update?
The in camera raw-converter is MUCH faster and not very complicated. BUT, the problem is the screen or the viewfinder does not show what the image looks like in the real world / what it would look like on a correctly calibrated computer screen... I would rather wish for a better and more calibrated color-accurate viewfinder and screen than more megapixels or other mumbo jumbo no real photographer needs in the next model from fujifilm. Thanks.
Very interesting that they use the camera to do the conversion. I wonder how hard it would be for them to do it on the computer? Seems like it would be very useful to be able to do that.
Hi. What other cameras can you save camera profiles from xraw studio to? You mention the xt4 can do it. That has an xtrans 4 and quad processor like the xt30 and x100v. Can you save custom camera profiles from x raw on those cameras as well?
❤ very helpful . My card reader died and a friend told me about this software. I was intimidated at first to change my process but this helped alot! I juwt edit after im Capture 1. Especially knowing theres a power option for the camera when using it. I was worried about it wearing out quicker. Also im going to just shoot raw now. I usually do both and leave it in atandard process. Provia? Anyways thanks a bunch! I subscribed 😊
Finally got around to trying some Recipes, and using X-RAW Studio, and re-watched this video. One question though - I see in your video that two of the options are grayed out - Dynamic Range and D-Range Priority. Everything else can be edited, but not those two. I have the same problem. Any idea why? Is there a workaround? The recipe I'm trying to add specifically calls for changing these. Thanks.
I think Fuji X Raw Studio may produce higher quality jpegs than LR. I imported the same RAF file to each and then applied the same film simulation. The jpegs exported from Raw Studio looked a bit sharper than those from LR. The was a quick and dirty test and I wonder if anyone else agrees. It makes sense that an app which uses the Fuji camera itself as a conversion engine will have the best output. I'm thinking of changing my workflow to start with a Fuji X Raw Studio conversion to jpg (if needed) and reserve LR or On1 Photo Raw (my regular photo editing and cataloguing app) for more aggressive jpg editing.
Hello @pal2tech, I hope you can help me !? I have set my fuji film X-T4 on "USB Raw Con..." then I have changed the battery, connected my Fuji to my computer it will recognize the X-T4 but can´t show the pictures, neither in my files neither on Fujifilm X RAW Studio. What can I do ? Thank you for your help and your really good videos ;D
A couple of gotchas for saving the new profile back to the camera: 1) it will change the IMAGE QUALITY to FINE, which may not be what you want, e.g., I usually shoot FINE+RAW; 2) it changes your non-custom setting (P, A, S, M) to the new custom setting. I find #2 extremely annoying because I usually leave my non-custom setting as vanilla/standard and this makes me have to change everything back!
Great video! Question when I have my X100V connected and running the app it makes a weird hissing sound and the status light flashes green. Does anyone know of this is normal?
Hi Chris! Congratulations for this useful video, I have some questions, I installed the application on my computer, but I haven't been able to get it to work. , I used a micro USB 2.0 connector, maybe a 3.0 is necessary? Although I don't know if it will work, on my regular, home PC, my camera is an xt2, and I haven't found the option to disable the USB charging function on it, maybe that's what doesn't allow the process to work. , I appreciate your response!!
I used to be VP Marketing for Fujifilm digital, back in the S camera days. I really like your presentations. If I was still there you'd be working for us.
I follow all the instructions however no images shown in my mac. My camera is x100v. Dont know what went wrong .. the connection was there.. between the camera and the apps just no images listed in the laptop
I'll be interested if I can simply take a raw file off a card on my Imac, open it in this, convert to tiff, and then, well, work on the tiff on another program. Ian other words, all I want this baby to do is give me an excellent tiff from raw. On my desktop.
VIDEO SUGGESTION: What about a video on flash combability? Many might have other brand flashes that they like to use with the Fuji gear, especially if they moved to Fuji recently. I use a ticker system for my non-Fuji flashes. Also, good to mention that flashes does not work with ES turned on due to the need for curtain functionality.
The two questions I have about this software are: First, why is there a "crop" button when viewing JPEGs and how do I use it; there are times I like the conversion but just need to crop/rotate, I can do the cropping/rotation on screen but can't seem to save the image. Second, does the "*" on an image mean it's a conversion, it has been edited or exactly what? I understand one might ask: "Why bother, use a REAL converting/editing program". I know, I'm just curious. :)
Thanks, after I connected my XE-4 my pictures doesn't show up, could you help me? I set everything what you said. My camera is there but no pics. I use only 1 USB C cable to my mac
Installed the latest version of X RAW STUDIO. Started the cameras and the program showed the camera model, but no folder or raw images. When I look in the explorer, I see two folders, one called film and one called still, but there are no pictures either, although they are shown in the camera. What can I do about this?
Thank you for this video...I was excited to try this out. My MacBook Air recognized the camera, but it's not pulling up and allowing me to save the created recipes to the camera? Any ideas of why this would be?
I am trying this as I am watching the video and I am having trouble connecting the X-T4 to X Raw Studio and I'm using the USB-C that came with the camera directly hooking it up to a MacBook Pro. Could this be a software problem, because I just downloaded the latest version of X Raw Studio?
HI! Does anyone have any suggestions if my laptop is unable to read my SD card when connected to my camera (x-t30ii)? The Studio is able to recognise my camera, but not the SD card :(
Another fantastic (and incredibly useful) video! You need to get a guy fawkes mask to wear when filming “hacking” segments 😉. Awesome content as always.
Any rational or hint why I can not see the new menu Camera Profile (Custom) with my XT-3 connected to X RAW Studio? Is this an an XT-4 feature which isn't available for oder Fujis?
Hey Chris, another great Fuji video, thank you. Your videos are without a doubt one of the best recommendation one can make to anyone in the Fuji-X ecosystem. On the topic of X Raw film simulations. What would be your preference if you also had Capture One which does great job also? Does X Raw do a better job in the conversion since it uses the camera's CPU/recipe.
This app only lets you convert the raw file to jpg. I wish I could create a DNG file or a tiff file because I make additional changes in ACR and Photoshop. Iridient X-Transformer converts the raw to DNG but there are no profiles in it.
@@sclogse1 I don’t know the answer but either way the size of the file is not the problem. It’s that a JPG file loses the data and flexibility needed to use in post processing. A raw or DNG file contains much more information than. JPG. Changing that to a tiff file doesn’t restore the data that’s missing.
I connected my X-T3 to my iMac and opened X Raw Studio and nothing happens. I can't get pictures to show up and on the upper left corner where the camera folders were supposed to appear there's nothing. Somebody help me.
Hi Chris, Thanks a lot for all your videos. You are one big reason for me finally pulling the trigger on an XT3. I followed this video,but somehow i am just able to save the settings in User profile, there is no option to save the setti gs in the camera. Seems like i am missing something obvious. Please do help if you get the time. Best wishes from India!!
I used another program (Houda Geo?) to add location data to my RAF files and after this, I’m not only unable to edit the RAF, but the camera freezes as well! Beware!
Custom settings for simulations a real bonus. (Would be nice to be able to save them to individual files, so as to limit the number to what the camera can hold.) Hacks not for DIYers, but nice try - my guess is that there is something like a check sum built into the code and the changes didn’t comport w/check sum. Good thing the app didn’t “brick” your camera in revenge😁.
Pal2tech, why half of my photos doesn't look sharp even at 200 or 400 iso in daylight or flash. And half of them showing worm artifacts. I was having thoughts of switching to a full frame because of these. Can you please help figure it out and explain? I'm subbing for the topic to come. Thanks in advance.
thanks for this video (again) you saved me from more gray hair... now I get this in my beliefs really awkward piece of software. Saving the recipes back to the camera is beyond great though! One question remains: could I use a "neutral" RAW (no recipe applied) and create a film recipe within the software from scratch?
I have an issue that's worse than an itch you can't scratch. I asked Fuji now I hope you can answer my question. I converted raw files and all went well until I launched Lightroom to import the converted jpg files. Lightroom didn't see the x raw studio converted jpgs. I launched Photoshop and opened the files. I created a new folder and dragged the jpg files into it. launched LR and clicked Import. LR saw the converted jpgs in the new folder. Why is this happening with the converted files that are in the original folder? A bug lurking about or do I need a plugin?
Great tutorial for a software I never meant to use before, looks much smoother for a soft editing. Definitely I’ll try once I’ll come back by next trip. Is it possibile to save and load custom profiles into the camera with the XT3?

OMG you can set custom profiles???!!!! This is perfect for loading Fuji X Weekly recipes for film simulations!!!!
Works on XT4. I don't think on XT3 though.
@@pal2tech Damn
@@pal2tech Right! But you can save the simulations to the Fujifilm X RAW Studio and apply them as needed....btw getting X-T4 next week WooHoo!
@@pal2tech do you know if you can set custom profiles on the X-s10 ?
@fujifilm please include this feature on XTrans III/X-Processor Pro generation too
I don't know how you do it, but every video is better than the last!
I don't even shoot RAW, but I love the idea of adding named profile recipes to my camera!!!
HAHA Chris!! Affectionately aka Wayne Szalinski, but Today went full NEO in the Fuji Matrix 😂 AND THANK U for continuing to distinguish X-T3 from X-T4, it REALLY helps 🙏🏽 super appreciative of the content like DAAMN CHRisSss the content thooooo 🙀🔥
Gosh, this is a really useful guide to using RAW files and the Fuji RAW software. I wish I was a photographer.

🤯🤯🤯🤯My mind is just blown away right now! This deep learning right there and I love it😍
Thanks a lot Chris!!! This sounds very interesting. I'm gonna try it.
About direct hex editing, it shouldn't work because the standard practice is to use CRC, metadata signatures, etc, to detect corruption and tampering. Also, data structures would be different between camera models so the X RAW Studio software would find inconsistencies. But it was worth trying anyway.
Thanks a lot again for the video and have a great weekend!!

Thanks for summarice the points for the camera settings and the tip for the cable. Last one did confuse me a lot.
The Fujifilm software is what led me to the full version of SilkyPix Developer Studio Pro. It's amazing software.
Thank you! I love using X Raw Studio because it's allow me to use custom recipes, and sometimes it's a lot easier than C1. Have a nice weekend!
You too Carlos!!!! Cheers!!! 👍

Wouldn't it be great if the program allowed you to do tethered shooting live, as the free Canon EOS utility does? That would be a real bonus.

I am trying this as I am watching the video and I am having trouble connecting the X-T4 to X Raw Studio and I'm using the USB-C that came with the camera directly hooking it up to a MacBook Pro. Could this be a software problem, because I just downloaded the latest version of X Raw Studio?
Having the same issues with my X-t4. Have you landed on any solutions?
HI! Does anyone have any suggestions if my laptop is unable to read my SD card when connected to my camera (x-t30ii)? The Studio is able to recognise my camera, but not the SD card :(
two tumbs up👍👍
Can you share what lens you used for the series of the brunette sitting at the table outdoors at 4:46 into the video? Thanks!
Gonna try it. Thanks Chris!!
What's the difference X RAW and Capture One software in a way of choosing film simulations?
Enjoy your vacation 👍🏼
Another fantastic (and incredibly useful) video! You need to get a guy fawkes mask to wear when filming “hacking” segments 😉. Awesome content as always.
Just wondering why you suggest turning off usb charging while doing conversions?
You forgot to revise the version in the hacking part. XT3 version and XT4 versions were different. Maybe that would have worked :))
Any rational or hint why I can not see the new menu Camera Profile (Custom) with my XT-3 connected to X RAW Studio? Is this an an XT-4 feature which isn't available for oder Fujis?
Hey Chris, another great Fuji video, thank you. Your videos are without a doubt one of the best recommendation one can make to anyone in the Fuji-X ecosystem. On the topic of X Raw film simulations. What would be your preference if you also had Capture One which does great job also? Does X Raw do a better job in the conversion since it uses the camera's CPU/recipe.
X RAW is the only converter that exactly matches the jpeg output of the camera.
What if I change or upgrade the camera, How can I restore all user profile that I saced previously on my old camera.
This app only lets you convert the raw file to jpg. I wish I could create a DNG file or a tiff file because I make additional changes in ACR and Photoshop. Iridient X-Transformer converts the raw to DNG but there are no profiles in it.
Does it make a jpeg bigger than your in camera jpeg? If it does, then turn your bigger jpeg into a tiff with P.S.
@@sclogse1 I don’t know the answer but either way the size of the file is not the problem. It’s that a JPG file loses the data and flexibility needed to use in post processing. A raw or DNG file contains much more information than. JPG. Changing that to a tiff file doesn’t restore the data that’s missing.
The app supports TIFF output, it depends on the model of camera. Your camera has to support TIFF output, the X-Pro3?
@@fredbloggs545 I have the xt-3.

I believe the X-T4 allows TIFF output.
I connected my X-T3 to my iMac and opened X Raw Studio and nothing happens. I can't get pictures to show up and on the upper left corner where the camera folders were supposed to appear there's nothing. Somebody help me.
Hi Chris, Thanks a lot for all your videos. You are one big reason for me finally pulling the trigger on an XT3. I followed this video,but somehow i am just able to save the settings in User profile, there is no option to save the setti gs in the camera. Seems like i am missing something obvious. Please do help if you get the time. Best wishes from India!!
I used another program (Houda Geo?) to add location data to my RAF files and after this, I’m not only unable to edit the RAF, but the camera freezes as well! Beware!
The software too? What is it with Fuji and just graying out options with little to no explanation of why or what to do about it?
Custom settings for simulations a real bonus. (Would be nice to be able to save them to individual files, so as to limit the number to what the camera can hold.) Hacks not for DIYers, but nice try - my guess is that there is something like a check sum built into the code and the changes didn’t comport w/check sum. Good thing the app didn’t “brick” your camera in revenge😁.
i can see my Xt5 but am i supposed to copy the files over? I can't change the source folder to my camera
Pal2tech, why half of my photos doesn't look sharp even at 200 or 400 iso in daylight or flash. And half of them showing worm artifacts. I was having thoughts of switching to a full frame because of these. Can you please help figure it out and explain? I'm subbing for the topic to come. Thanks in advance.
have a great weekend 👊🏻
You too!
thanks for this video (again) you saved me from more gray hair... now I get this in my beliefs really awkward piece of software.
Saving the recipes back to the camera is beyond great though!
One question remains: could I use a "neutral" RAW (no recipe applied) and create a film recipe within the software from scratch?
Is there a way to apply the settings of a custom recipe to a raw file in Capture One?
I have an issue that's worse than an itch you can't scratch. I asked Fuji now I hope you can answer my question.
I converted raw files and all went well until I launched Lightroom to import the converted jpg files. Lightroom didn't see the x raw studio converted jpgs.
I launched Photoshop and opened the files. I created a new folder and dragged the jpg files into it. launched LR and clicked Import. LR saw the converted jpgs in the new folder. Why is this happening with the converted files that are in the original folder? A bug lurking about or do I need a plugin?
Great tutorial for a software I never meant to use before, looks much smoother for a soft editing. Definitely I’ll try once I’ll come back by next trip. Is it possibile to save and load custom profiles into the camera with the XT3?
