- Hello again! Lets learn about the dreaded card "read errors." Lets learn why this glitch happens, and how to fix it quickly and easily! I go through step by step, and you'll be sure to not put your card/images in jeopardy again. Thank you for your support.
Sorted - thanks! Still a really helpful run-through, five years after posting - and thanks for your clear, relaxed style, Jimmy - greetings from Berlin!
aww thats very kind. i didnt think anyone would watch this video.. especially from berlin, which is why this vid is not very good.. i have fuji cameras still so in about a month ill have more tutorials coming out soon. thank you!!
9 years of photography, a dozen cameras used, 170 weddings shot and counting, but today i watched a 6 minute video to learn how to format a card on fuji. FML
I know what a waste of time.. sorry haha
I'll save everyone 6 minutes: THIS VIDEO JUST TELLS YOU TO FORMAT THE CARD.
Why waste 6 minutes of our time giving us 5 seconds of information?
The real solution is to lock your SD card before you read it on your Macbook, because OS X creates .DS_Store and other metadata files, and the bright minds at Fuji didn't design a camera that can handle that. That will be my last Fujifilm camera.
Nicolas Bouliane awesome contribution! my videos are about me having fun and describing things in too much detail for most to bear. sorry to waste your time!
I thin he is right mate..... fun is good and you should do what you want but when people want info they want it now not stories about other things.... just annoys people.
@@nomadcompany maybe youre right. oh well.
nah they r haters
JIMMY FOR PRESIDENT 🎉
Thanks Jimmy, very helpful, as always. I was so frustrated that i was about to sell off my beloved X-T1 in As-Is condition just for this error.
I m not selling anymore :)
I didn't think people would watch these videos. they are too long and pointless but thank you for being kind. the xt1 is loved by all fuji enthusiasts. seriously, they say something is magical about that particular sensor. keep playing with it!!
@@jimmycphoto I agree, XT1 paired with 35/1.4 is filmic and has orangish tint to the images that i love. I tried several newer fuji bodies and lenses but they were different and were focused more on sharpness.
BTW, videos like these are very helpful, i searched several forums and read for hours to find a remedy but none of those suggestions helped
@wkpad1 how interesting! how that hue is like that for you. yes people are obsessed with sharpness, and how fast it could be. it does sacrifice character it seems!
Hi Jimmy, your video really helped me, especially by clearly walking through from 2:45 because it confirmed that you were having the same problem as me (even on my different Fuji). I have no idea what it meant to "just format the card", so the walkthru was great. Idk why some ppl are being rude/impatient in the comments. I think your vlogging style is fun and welcoming, which is what I like about TH-cam! Now that my memory card is okay, I can start filming my time lapse project. :D Thanks, have a nice day with your dogs.
yes, people are really ripping me apart from me rambling. I really need things explained to me in a way that I can understand. Like.. embarrassingly simple. I also focus on simple things to help out people like myself. Im happy at least you found it .. somewhat fun. Thank you marvey... you made my day.
I have encountered once. This also happens if you change the picture orientation on the computer. The ones that you changed will display as "error" and others will still be fine to review on camera. I think it only happens to the pictures that you modified on the computer.
Thank you for pointing that out. I think I have messed with the orientation on the comp once or twice, so that makes sense.
really - 6min to say format the card???
LOL
Had same Fuji "Read Error" issue with SD card. Recovered all the photos using "Stellar Data Recovery Professional"...... $99USD, but it worked!
very cool, good real world tip thank you so much!!
I’ve found a fuji x-a1 for 100$ with this error but im afraid of wasting my money, should i buy it?
wow good question....im sure it is fine... but i still cant recommend it. better not to in my opinion.. just in case, you know?
Errr how does this fix the error???
Great video. i have an old fuji finepix s8400 with a card error message. i followed all the tips in this video but nothing worked. Do you know of anything specific that I need to do for this model camera. Been searching the internet for days cant find anything helpful. I did buy a new card and it still gives me the error message.
oof sorry.. this video is not good. I did not think people would watch it. hm so a new card wouldn't work, would formatting the cameras settings from scratch be a possible solution? we just have to narrow things down. I would detach the lens and work with that alone if it is that type of camera. and then check to see firmware on Google if your body and lens are up to date after resetting your body. stick with the new card for now. what brand, and class speed is the card?
@@jimmycphoto 128g sandisk imagemate. i think the #10 indicates the speed. i can see a1 on the card also.
@@midcity50470119 hm I don't know what the a1 is, but I'm sure it is fine. I'll do some poking around if I find any solutions I'll let you know!!
@@jimmycphoto Thank you
@@jimmycphoto Found a solution. Got myself a canon eos rebel t7.
THANKYOU! TOTALY HELP!
aw, thank you...
Good explanation., so I did this with a Fuji X-M1. When I clicked for a shot there's no click. When I then did the reformatting, this didn't change the error message. What next?
ah.. Im not too familiar with that camera. did you resolve the issue? how did you do it?
Still have "card error" this didnt help
sorry about that. i dont work for fuji like people think. im just a guy. do you have another card to compare? perhaps you can borrow one? this may narrow down the problem
Thanks for the video....I was worried about that. It happened to me too on my XT-1. I now am in the habit of downloading my card files to my computer without making any adjustments/changes, then safely removing the card and putting the card back into my camera. I then work with the files which are now on my computer.
yes, very thorough, safe and smart!
Im about to cry and it didn't for me though
oh no... this video was terrible.. hmm i hope you can find the answer. i find that totally reformatting the card and the camera sets everything back to normal baseline.
I had the same error, and basically all the images I took after i had the card error thing are corrupt. Is there a way to recover those images? Thanks!
Hi adrian.. Im not sure if there is. Those cards aren't all that sophisticated... since reformatting - are you still not able to save images well?
I had the same error but when I added the card into the Mac card reader, it saw the files and I was able to download them. I immediately replaced the card once I saw the error, hope it helps.
Thanks !!
I have a 'card MEMORY error', Not 'card read error'. How the hell do I fix it? I have a Fujifilm digital camera.
Gosh.. I hope you don't have anything on it. hmm..I've never had that error.. I'll look into it!.
I need your help lol...I was so pissed off... I'm trying to shoot a 4k video sunset in 4k on my xt3 like I always do with my sony a7rii....23.9 FPS all intra I've got 500 GB worth of SD cards 15 minutes into the film i get a pop up screen saying "storing"... then it says "write error"... first of all I never told it to store after 15 minutes, I was intending it to go to the full 30 minutes, and second of all I don't know what the hell the "write error" was ...two brand new Lexar Professional 1667x 256GB SDXC UHS-II/U3 V60 Memory Cards ...brand new Fuji xt3 .....did I miss a setting or something? . I was in movie mode I was in aperture priority and it just stops 15 minutes in to store.... very frustrating
yipes.. im so sorry. sometimes mune prematurely stops recording too. what kind of card do you use? is it the kind fuji recommends? are you using the original fuji battery? is your screen open to maximize airflow? sometimes the card fills up to the setting capacity. mine does this. not that the whole card fills up.. it just can only record a certain amount.. still havent figured this out yet. ive had similar issues. im sorry i dont quite know. i changed the recording quality and it seemed to have helped and use the real batter as well. but if im not careful, it will stop prematurely for other reasons.
also, i dont record in 4k anymore because.. the person watching also has to have 4k capabilities.. try an hd setting to see if it works..
@@jimmycphoto yeah im gonna have to buy a atomos ninja just to be done with those problems i see
I was looking for a solution that doesn't involve loosing all the pictures on the card. I already know how to format a sd card in camera.
Lock your SD card before you read it on your machine. The metadata files (.DS_Store for example) your computer writes on the card don't play well with Fuji cameras. The geniuses at Fuji apparently never considered people would use their cameras with a Mac.
Thank you v much
thank you! Sorry, this video was.. too long.
