To get the detailed information, I suggest this: Download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all of your files and the respective sizes.
Do not forget to empty trash. Only then is space allocated for additional data.

Sep 9, 2016 1:08 PM in response to OGELTHORPEby Dansun1978,It actually turned out to be a Time Machine issue. I was using an external Hard Drive for this and when it wasn't plugged in it looked like it was backing up to the HD instead. I changed this back to the SD 128GB card and it now seems ok again.
