I tried it out. Very interesting results.  I use PS CC and LR CC and so far I am very happy with the results.  I am not really a fan of too much sharpening and when I do it my method will depend on the image.  One thing I did realize after purchasing IR-X is that it sharpens the whole image.  That can be a disadvantage as in some images it does bring out more noise in out of focus areas which I can protect in PS.  So use it carefully (well I do).  In most cases I will sharpen in PS CC on a luminosity layer in the red channel and get on par to IR-X results. BUT. I have found IR-X can push sharpening way further than what I can achieve in PS or LR.

I have also bought a licence for this RAW coinverter. It certainly handles fine details better than LR, producing correct detail rather than the sometimes worm like rendition of LR.

There is some control over the amount of sharpening and, like Antonius, I keep that to a minimum, using LR or PS to take care of that as and when needed.

The overall result is very impressive and makes my Fuji X outfit all the more valuable.

      High-contrast scenes creating too dark JPGs with X-T50??

      By jerryy · Posted

      Which direction is the light source coming from in the dark images? For example, if it coming from behind the subject, a common occurrence known as backlighting, put some light from the front toward the subject — you can do this with a flash unit, or by using various types of colored reflectors. Or, use long exposures with various grades and types of graduated neutral density filters to bring out the dark areas without blowing out the highlights. Or try bracketing exposures. There is a technique called ETTR, expose to the right, which will bring out shadow detail but risks blowing out the brighter sections. This may help in understanding DR settings as well as Dynamic Range Priority: https://www.jmpeltier.com/fujifilm-dynamic-range-settings/ p.s. The situation you are describing has been one photographers have struggled against since cameras and photographers have been around.

      Looking for HDR RAF image sample

      By DrCQ · Posted

      Hi, I'm looking for some Fujifilm HDR RAF image samples from the X-T4, X-Pro3 or X100V cameras. These cameras should store 3 RAW images inside the RAF image file in HDR mode. In need it, to verify my own software, but don't find any downloadable samples on web. Can someone help? Christoph

      High-contrast scenes creating too dark JPGs with X-T50??

      By Tvir · Posted

      I would like to get your comments on the following problem of mine: Occasionally, I do get too dark JPG pictures with X-T50 - when the scene is contrasty; I think this is the very situation. This can happen when sun shines from a blue sky or the sky is cloudy but still very bright. I find these outcomes strange, as in many other (more or less similar) situations I find that the exposure is balanced. Is there any remedy for this, as I cannot completely figure out as to why this happens. Photometry is at the most common center-weight setting. What factors/settings can affect the picture's exposure in X-T50 (in the situation I describe)? For JPGs I've set the dynamic range on (DR400 with ISO500). Can that do it?? I thought it balances contrasts... Well, I can adjust the exposure on a computer but that is extra work for holiday pictures.

      Fujixt4 icon unknown lower left corner

      By Greybeard · Posted

      Like Jerryy says you can scale you image down so that it can be uploaded - that way we aren't guessing. The only symbol that looks like a camera is the Continuous Mode symbol - but it normally has "L" or "H" next to it rather than a "1"

      Fujixt4 icon unknown lower left corner

      By jerryy · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. I think the icon that looks like a camera you are mentioning could be the metering mode icon: https://fujifilm-dsc.com/en-int/manual/x-t4/about_this_camera/display/index.html (Number 39 or 41 depending on whether you are looking at the viewfinder screen or the lcd screen.) Have you customized any display settings? That would affect what you get to see on the displays. Akso, if you have Large Indicator Mode turned on, the M or P will not show: https://fujifilm-dsc.com/en-int/manual/x-t4/menu_setup/screen_set-up/index.html p.s. If you have an image editor, you can scale your images to a smaller size that can be uploaded.
