Ok, so I know this is a discussion that constantly comes up when people talk about software for Fuji - Lightroom vs iridient and so on, but I'm not overly worried about that extra bit of sharpness from iridient (though it would be nice if Lightroom was on par). My main issue is the colours. I love Fuji colours. I love playing with the in-camera film simulations while shooting but I hate the fact that they don't carry over with the raw file. I mean, I know Lightroom has those profiles but they just aren't the same and I'm certainly not about to start shooting jpeg. It just seems like a huge gap in the Fuji ecosystem that needs filling.

 

I'd certainly pay for software that had the workflow and usability of lightroom, sharpness of Iridient and colour information that transfers from the camera...

 

 

Could this happen, or am I dreaming?

It's a balance at the moment, until LR get things just right for Fuji XF sensor or the other catching up to Adobe level of user usability/features.

 

I picked my poison and stayed with LR as I love their file management system and usage of tags. For the rest, I can live with it. It's not perfect, specially for the greens, so I just need to keep an eye about that part and live with the rest.

Here is recent Fuji film simulation comparison with Adobe - https://fujilove.com/fujifilms-film-simulation-modes-and-what-they-are-actually-doing-to-your-images/ and I should admit that Adobe is not that bad.

Under "Camera calibration" on the "develop" tab.

 

Are using adobe standard or one of the Fuji profiles?

Adobe Standard. I changed to PROVIA/STANDARD now but the foliage is still the same.

Download the RAW and see if you get different result. The link is in the description:

Unfortunately, I am at work and down have a monitor that is even close to calibrated but this is what it looks like with nothing but a little bit of white balance + provia/standard applied.

 

Obviously, it could be made to look better with more adjustments.

      Infrared Photography on X-E2 665nm

      By Neil Rosenberg · Posted

      I'm not exaggerating when I say that I have searched with great vigor (and at great expense) for a way to capture IR images with a Fujifilm camera for which I didn't have to use major amounts of sharpening to bring out the best. Zooms, primes, Fuji, Tamron, Viltrox, Sigma, Zeiss ... probably 20 lenses all told. Plus multiple IR converted Fuji cameras, X-T1, X-T3, X-T5. I even tried different ways of filtering IR, such as using the Kolari clip-ins and lens-mounted front filters. I was ready to give up until I almost accidentally tried one of the cheapest lenses out there -- the little TTArtisan 27mm F2.8. No hotspots that I could see, and best of all ABSOLUTELY SUPERB SHARPNESS across the entire frame. It's this attribute that I search for, and until now, never achieved. In my prior attempts, I listened to the advice from the "pundits", picking up a copy of the venerable Fuji 14mm F2.8, the Zeiss Touitt 12mm F2.8, Fuji 23 and 35mm F2.0, even the very similar 7Artisans 27mm F2.8, and none of them come even close to the TTArtisan for edge sharpness in infrared. Incidentally, I'm using a Kolari 720nm clip-in filter. Sure the TT has its issues -- vignetting at 2.8, tendency to flare with sunlight nearby, but all in all, this lens is glued to my X-T5 for now. This image was taken hand-held with this lens -- completely unedited!

      In reply to the original question, it all depends on what you mean by infrared.  If you mean "see thermal information", then I agree with the comments here.  However, if you mean near-infrared, the X-T4, or basically any digital camera can be modified to "see" it.  Check out Lifepixel.com and Kolarivision.com for more info.

      XS10 and manual lenses

      No - I don’t think so - it means you can take pictures if you remove the lens completely - but I’m not sure that is a problem

      XS10 and manual lenses

      By mcewena · Posted

      I bought a manual lens over xmas and it took me a while to find the "shutter w/o lens" function in the menu settings.  So far I haven't found a way to either put that on the Q menu or marry that setting to one of the 4 custom modes.   Am I missing something? Is there a problem if I just leave that setting enabled even when the OEM auto lens is in place? tia

      Apple Support for Compressed RAF files

      By Greybeard · Posted

      It appears that Apple now (at last!) fully supports FujiFilm Lossless and Compressed RAF files. In the latest updates of MacOS Tahoe 26.2, iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 compressed files are supported in Finder/Files and the Photos app. Good news for those of us with Macs and iPads.
