SW Rick reacted to photobob in Fuji X Raw files converted to Adobe DNG
Thanks for the comments. SW Rick seems to share the frustration I have with DXO . It has always been my choice for noise reduction (Prime) and once a file is converted to a DNG you would think it would be easily read......agreed it's their loss.
Thanks Graflex ( I use to use one) . Your right about not getting worked up since most of my work is event, street, travel and candid portrait, I have not noticed . But I am getting more involved with landscape work so I will start saving the RAF's which I have discarded in the past. The included photo gives a good indication of the issue. When I encountered it I just added a little " Clarity" in camera raw.
Going back to using my Graflex 4 x 5 or my RB-67 , I look at a few of the commercial images I produced with them now, and they don't compare to the IQ produced with the crop sensor in the X-T2. Those who are reaching their photographic maturity in the digital age are fortunate to be working with this equipment . The" nit picking" on image quality will only make it better.
Bob 😁

SW Rick reacted to darkshine231 in The dolomites with my X-Pro2 and X-T2
Hello everyone,
I had the opportunity to spend a week in the Dolomites area to catch the autumn colors ! my trusty x-pro2 and x-t2 were from the trip.
We start with a classic of the Dolomites, the church of San-Giovanni in Ranui near Santa Magdalena.
The sky mixed with some remainings of fog, made really the mountain glow and burn in a special way.
1) X-pro2 - 16-55 @ f10, some exposures mixed to achieve this image as the contrast between the different plans was enormous.
Have a nice day and see you soon for more.

SW Rick got a reaction from claude in 3 Weeks in Portugal with the X-T20
Another nice set! And I enjoyed seeing someone in many of the pictures- breaks up the monotony of the deserted vista, and interest (and some continuity).

SW Rick reacted to mostlyphotos in Northumberland Coast
I recently visited Nothumberland in the North East of the United Kingdom. The Northumberland Coast is beautiful and I have started to pull together some brief blog posts with some of the images from the trip as well as brief guides to locations.

SW Rick reacted to Jose Carpin in ARTICLE: World's end: Spain's wild north edge with Fujifilm XT-2
Hi folks,
Before starting the trip driving my car up north in Spain, I obviously had to think about what gear I should take with me. My goal was clear: I wanted to shoot original landscapes in the north coast of Spain, specifically in the province of Asturias. Nowadays I am a Fujifilm photographer, which means two things: firstly, I am highly proud of owning a Fujifilm gear, which is outstanding in terms of quality and shooting experience, and furthermore because I’m in love with the quality and design of my FUJIFILM XT-2 and my lenses too. I knew I would mostly shoot landscapes, so before going up north to Asturias, I took a good decision: I sold my small and sweet pancake Samyang 12mm f/2 and then, I bought the legendary FUJI XF10-24MM F/4, and yes, it was a great. The XF10-24mm is more convenient for landscape photography; the focal range helps to reach far scenes where it’s impossible to get with a prime 12mm lens; for example shooting rocks in the water during a high tide.
