Major issues Running NEO with Fuji GFX files
Answered
While NEO is a promising imaging tool, however, here are few issues I'm running into:
First, some level set, I'm using MacBook Pro running macOS Monterrey, 64gb Ram, Radeon Pro 5500M 8GB, 8Core intel core i9 and the latest NEO update installed.
Issues to report:
- Unable to load Fujifilm GFX100S RAF files, and when they do, I encounter the following
- Rendering is super slow
- Cropping is a mess, example I select 16x9 and nothing happens
- Adjustments in development module (and others) are slow to up on screen when moving the sliders
I'm interested to know what others are finding but the bottom line, at least for me, the software is extremely buggy and struggling to render.

I have had the same experience with a Fuji X-T2.
Everything is very slow although I only have 24 MP. And this on the latest MacBook Pro with M1 Pro chip and 32 GB Ram-.
You can not work reasonably with the program. Everything is very slow and many things do not work properly.
You get from the support unfortunately always only the standard answers.How big is the catalog.
Is it on the internal SSD?
blablaInstead of doing the steps by themselve and compare.

You’re spot on with customer service!!!
I feel that they have employed ROBOTS at times. This to me seems that they either rushed NEO or their QA is sub-par but you’d think that they do due diligence prior to release.I tried smaller RAF files taken with Fujifilm X100V, same issues.
They’re not ready for prime time but they’ve been collecting money for a while and under pressure for a release.

Indeed, there seems to be a performance issue while working with heave RAW images.

Hi Austin,
I have already contacted your support but unfortunatelly I have no ticket number. But you should find me with my email address. There I have already uploaded a RAW file from my camera.
You would think that a professional image editing software would be able to handle ordinary RAW files from 24MP APS-C cameras.

Hello Stephan,
We will get back to you as soon as possible!

Hello Austin,
Per your request for analysis, here is the link with two RAF files uploaded here:
Keep in mind that each file is over 100mb
Regardless, I do not have the stated issues above with other applications like Luminar AI or Lightroom CC just NEO seems to be "SNAIL" slow and buggy all around.
