any ipad pro users here for fuji raw or just editing in general?


Recommended Posts

I have been searching for a new 64 bit PC, build your own vs buying. I prefer to just wait it out for another few years. Video cards now faster or priced same as a PC is crazy in itself.

 

Rarely using my 9 year old dell pc as it is. The ipad pro looks very ideal right now. I understand

there are still limitations.

 

Is it a quick and smooth workflow? transfer raw or jpg from fuji directly to ipad pro or

use an external ssd. Then use lightroom for ipad?

 

Hoping to hear from fuji owners here who's workflow is with the ipad or ipad pro.

 

Ideally photos coming out of the fuji is great enough that only requires minor editing tweaks, yes? :-)

 

Thanks!

XP2 -> Desktop Lightroom -> Mobile Lightroom on iPad Pro. Although I import to my desktop (where a RAID ensures my photos are never lost), I add it to a synced collection on import so the photos are automatically synced to the iPad Pro where I can rate them. I will also try out adjustments on the iPad Pro and really only use the desktop if I need to fine tune an image. I really wish I could use the brush tool on the iPad Pro since the pencil would be awesome for that, but unfortunately that feature isn't there. Also, you can't export full-res images from Lightroom Mobile if they were synced (only if you import them directly to the iPad), so I still use the desktop for that. However, I have a good remote screen app (called "Screens") on the iPad where I can remote control the desktop, and an app called Astropad if I really wanted to use the brush tool. With these apps, I can do almost all of my processing on the couch.

    • I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.
    • I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results. 
    • Thank you. I will research it.
    • Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.
    • Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
