This is also how we found that electronic shutter & continuous drive modes in Fuji cams bin the RAW data down from 14 to 12 bit.

Thanks for pointing this out and good to know.

Have you any information about the electronic first curtain shutter mode? Is the data also stripped to 12-bit in that mode?

That's a bit odd to use a 14-bit container file to store 12-bit data unless raw file standards are not flexible at all.  I have no problem getting only 12 bit when using ISO values larger than 320 on the XT3 since the engineering dynamic range is always below 12 bits anyway at higher ISO values, but that's a loss of almost almost  one stop at ISO160 though.
