Just to provide you with more information, I did not remove the card from the camera for a least 1 week before the error message. On Tuesday, I was taking photos with no problem. On Wednesday, I turned on the camera and there is the error message. Card had not been removed.

So I thought it was a bad card. But the camera does not read any other card - one that I had previously formatted in the camera and another I did not. The reader is dead and will not format a new card.
My camera is in Fuji's repair shop, being fixed for free as it is under warranty. That indicates that it isn't a computer/card format/user problem, nor a firmware problem.

E issue usually occurs when some in in camera deleting is done. If u don't delete anything when viewing during shoot or better off do look at them at all...e issue doesn't occur. Maybe fuji is so old school that this is a feature for user to not look at what they shoot....back to film days...haha

I delete from my camera quite a bit. But I also re-format semi-regularly.

my suspicion came when i had read error and when downloading the photos, i have images that were read arranged ( as in in a single image, the centre portion of the photo ended up at the bottom switching place w the bottom portion, do a search if you want to see the photo cos i posted before. and some have images of 2 different photos stitch into 1. thus i thought the naming of the files cos the camera to be confused and ended up combining 2 photos into 1 etc. i also realised that most of the time when it happened, its 2 or 3 photos together( for my case using XT1), seldom a stand alone.

that was all in july/aug 2017. since renaming the files, have never had a single read error w the same card that used to give problem.

for the record: i named my FXT1
