When will we get better handling of Fuji raw files?

Why is it that Fuji raw files (I'm using a Fuji X-T1 camera) are treated so badly in Lightroom? I have just tried Irident Developer and just exporting random photo of my son with default settings in Irident got me a vastly better result than I able to get from Lightroom.

Joergen,
I was quite concerned myself when reading some of the posts about LR processing X-trans files, even after the fix done in LR 4.4 (Adobe's Fujifilm X-Trans sensor processing tested: Digital Photography Review)
What I noticed though, is that the articles with "comparisons" are biased and usually talk about "detail" and trying to "fix" it to no avail. My experience with every single raw file available was, however,  that it is possible to do a much better job with LR than what the articles present, leading me to think that the authors are either clueless or marketing agents in disguise.
Moreover, some of the files that are presented as "better" are in fact quite over-sharpened showing an obviously digital result.
My recommendation is to try and see with your own eyes. I was able to test the packages using trial periods and finally ended up sticking to LR for the overall way it handles the images.
Here go a couple of raw files for you to try:
Dropbox - DSCF2432.RAF
Dropbox - DSCF2425.RAF
100% comparisons between LR (PROVIA profile) and OOC jpg (PROVIA Film Simulation):
1.A                                                              2.B
2.A                                                                                                   2.B
Any preference?
1.A and 2.A are the Raw files processed with LR. 1.B and 2.B are OOC JPG, PROVIA

  • When will LR3 be updated to support D600 RAW files?

    When will LR3 be updated to support D600 RAW files?

    When? I believe the answer is that it will NOT be updated to support D600 RAW files.
    To use D600 with LR3, you will have to download and use the free Adobe DNG Converter. However, I don't think the most current version handles D600 RAWs, so you will have to be patient on this. According to one knowledgeable source, the update will be available soon.
    Or you can upgrade to LR4, and at some point in the future (allegedly "soon") it will be able to handle D600 RAW files.

  • HT203088 Will Aperture get new camera support for RAW files in the future?

    need answers

    RAW support is part of the OS for Apple;  it is not part of Aperture.
    Apple has stated that they will continue to support Aperture _on Yosemite_ but not on any future OS's.
    Therefore it appears _reasonable_ to conclude that all RAW support updates for Yosemite will work with Aperture.
    Apple provides no guarantee (or has, afaik, any contractual obligation) to stick to the above.
    Apple makes no statements regarding updates to the RAW compatibility.

    Seems to be a widespread human condition.

    Mozilla will not be releasing a 64 bit Windows version of Firefox 4. They are creating 64 bit builds for testing purposes, but there will not be an official 64 bit Windows version until some time after Firefox 4 is released.

    If your son actually ordered and paid for it in-store then he was given a ship date that it would either be arriving for in-store pick-up or a beginning date that it would be shipped to your house ( Jan 10th - Jan 18th )  etc.  Since it was paid for upfront the only thing that would stop you getting it would be if Toshiba stopped producing it and Best Buy totally ran out at all its stores - otherwise Best Buy will do its best to fullfill your order.  You can usually talk to someone directly by calling the store and they can check the status of your order for you.   Hope this helps a little.

    Our end of the year t-shirt campaign was far more successful than we anticipated and we were a bit slower shipping than we hoped to be.
    If you can get in touch with me directly (mari at mozillafoundation dot org), I can look and see exactly when your shirt was shipped. Then we can figure out whether or not your shirt might be lost in the mail.
    Take care, hope to hear from you soon!

        Hello candaon1,
    I know it is exciting when new products become available. We are in high anticipation of the release of the Galaxy S4 as well. Currently there is no release date on the device, but you can keep up with any news here http://bit.ly/n5snpq. The wait should not be to long, but I'm sure it will live up to expectations.
