Continuing my search for a lighter and more compact substitute for my beloved D500 with a Tamron 70-200 mm f2.8, The XT-3 is a formidable competitor for fast action sports. I used the Fuji50-140 f2.8 lens. First, it fit into my small and lighter case. Second, it was about half the weight, or at least it felt that way, without putting it on a scale.
The fps was equal or faster than the D500.
Most important: (1) the buffer size is as big as necessary and I did not experience any delay from shot to shot and (2) the auto-focus and eye detection is faster and gives sharper images at least looking at the images on the back screen. So sharp I was able to decipher facial features through the players’ hockey helmets.

Now I just have to figure out how to post process the XT3 RAW images on my iPad. Post processing of RAW images from the XT-3 is entirely different from simply popping a memory card and importing to Photos or LR.

If anyone can enlighten me how to do this I would be grateful.

Thanks
Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Check out PhaseOne's Capture One Fujifilm Express. (www dot phaseone dot com) The full C1 editor is fairly pricey, but the freebie (Express) version for Fuji users should get you going. Easy download/install from their site.

On1 Photo Raw 2018 is also a good choice if your version (stand alone?) cannot read the files. If you have Lightroom Classic CC, it will be able to read the files within a reasonable time.
