  1. On a few occasions I've accidentally enabled the Advanced Filter mode (via the Drive button). Never once have I wanted to do this intentionally, and it always seems to happen when I'm either half frozen and brain dead (i.e.: shooting in freezing conditions on a snowy mountain) or at a wedding when the bride is about to walk down the aisle. In both scenarios you're staring at the camera a little perplexed and trying to figure out why none of the manual controls are working as they should. So, how the F do I disable this lovely "feature"?!?! Another ruined photo (taken by some rando at the top of the mountain, I wasn't even aware of the problem until I got home - and no, there isn't a raw file to work from either):
  2. Hi Everyone- I emailed the sitemaster for Fuji Rumor to request a petition or poll, with the hopes of getting Fuji Corporate to work more closely with Adobe to improve raw file support. Rather than rephrasing, here is the email itself. I'm curious if other users share the same frustrations and/or what you'd like to see most from Fuji / Adobe for improved raw file handling. ~~~ I'm wondering if FujiRumors could petition Fuji Corporate to work directly with Adobe to improve raw file conversions. While I enjoyed the baked-in film simulations for jpegs, I miss the freedom of raw control and I'm particularly frustrated with the lack of lens corrections in ACR / LR. They say the corrections are build into the lens firmware - however I've tested converted raw files vs jpegs - they jpegs have distortion and vignetting correction applied, and in ACR there is no automated equivalent. Back to the petition, there are four issues that need to be addressed: Useless Sidecar Files - Fuji, please have the camera-generated sidecar file contain the "as shot" film profile. End goal: When the user opens the file in ACR or LR, it should look identical to the JPEG. (Without having to apply it via additional steps). Film Profiles - Fuji, please provide the actual profiles to Adobe. In-Camera Velvia and ACR-Applied Velvia are not the same. This is endlessly disappointing and frustrating. Lens Profiles - Fuji, please provide profiles to Adobe (like Canon and Nikon have!) so users can easily correct for distortion and vignetting. Dynamic Range - Sidecar files should contain adjustments so DR200/400 files were automatically adjusted to match their JPEG brethren. If Fuji is serious about pursuing working professionals and more advanced hobbyists - then they need to come to terms with the importance of working with Adobe. They've created great hardware and film profiles that everyone enjoys, however the concept is completely crippled with the limited support for ACR/LR and limited use of sidecar file data to adjust film, lens and dynamic range profile information.
