I just purchased a Fuji X-H2 with its various film formats. If I'm understanding things correctly (maybe a wild assumption), to let these various formats import as shown by the camera, I must allow the camera profile to dictate the imports. This is my first download with the Fuji camera & it is not coming up on the list of available models. I closed & re-started LR hoping it might take that process to "find" the XH2, but no luck. The listing shows all the other cameras I've used in the past.

It also crosses my mind that once I get the XH2, which will replace the K3, will that screw up my imports (almost 100% jpeg) from the G5X, or does LR recognize the different cameras & adjusts accordingly?
I haven't imported any Fuji raw files yet (fighting a card reader of all things!), but I assume simply using the "camera settings" as shown below will take care of that.

If it matters, I've currently been using the K3 & G5XII. I don't remember setting the Adobe default to the G5X, though I don't mind since it's been working fine for me.

Your assistance will be most appreciated.

You have set the global setting to 'Camera Settings', so that means Lightroom Classic will use the camera settings for all cameras, except the one(s) you have specified (currently only the Canon G5 X II). Please note this applies to raw files only.

Johan,
My thanks for helping me sort this out. I finally imported raw files & things went as expected, & now LR recognizes the XH2. I still have to tinker with the various film formats the camera offers, but I will assume LR will go by the camera settings for jpeg as well.
