Hi all thought I would comment here

on1 just gets better and better I have been using it for past 9mths and with every update it keeps

 

adding more and more,

 

next update I think we will get merging Panoramas and focus stacking, HDR stacking

 

and various other fixes.

 

I got rid of light room and Photoshop I now use Serif Affinity and on1  get by just fine

 

yes Lightroom was and is very good but not so good with Fuji X-T2 if you have to remove noise in my opinion

 

and I don't have to pay a fee every month its not a matter of paying the fee to Adobe,

its the principal of paying

 

I like to own my software,  and one more point Adobe treats its customers like £/$ signs  that's all you are

 

just look at the stand alone LR  you never get the updates that CC/users get,

  just not good enough

 

well I have ranted enough :lol:

 

but seriously  on1PhotoRaw  is worth trying out you get a free trial  and so is Serif-Affinity

 

two  upcoming  software programs in  my opinion

 

I have nothin to do with either of them but I bought both  and I'm glad I  have them great with Fuji files

Agreed fully really Adobe. When my 'subscription' runs out I shall drop it. I also use Affinity Photo and Designer, which I think are pretty good too. I have Capture 1 V10, also and on the few images I have used it on so far it has been great especially skin tones.

I'm using a combination of On1 Photo Raw and Affinity Photo. (stopped my subscribtion to adobe a few month's ago)

 

Most things I can do in on1 Photoraw, and I'm using AF (affinity photo) if something extra is needed, or for focus stacking and panorama's.

 

Not everything is super, On1 doesn't have the same film simulations as fuji (it has some but they don't look the same). The raw previews in browse mode are not always correct. (in develop mode they are)

Affinity photo, is lousy when using it for raw development, slow, underexposes dr200/dr400 shots, or better said doesn't use them. 

So for now I'm using photoraw for raw development and send the tif to affinity.

 

But one thing is sure, they work and the speed of on1 photo raw shows how far Lightroom is lagging.

ON1 PhotoRaw 2018 has panorama as a new function - The Beta was released yesterday and the final version comes late october. Download free to try it out. Also, HDR, Versions (make alternate versions of a photo), new masking options etc.

I have similar objections to using Adobe, but in reality I have never like LR, having tried it several times from v1.  I use Capture One Pro instead, but actually Apple's Photos is starting to come alive now, with the update in High Sierra.

      ISO and exposure dial’s misbehaving. Need help

      By Michaelb5 · Posted

      Hey everyone, I am new to the fujifilm system, and I just received my X100vi about 15 days ago, and yesterday I noticed that ISO and exposure dials are acting up. I spent hours watching YouTube videos and reading forms without finding any solutions. Using ChatGPT or Gemini also didn’t help. My issues are the following: If I want to set my ISO at a specific value then the camera LCD/EVF shows a totally different value. For example, I have shutter manual, aperture manual and ISO dial at 6400, the camera shows ISO at 4000, when I take pictures it will show ISO at 4000 and not 6400. When I try to choose another ISO value it will skip some of the available values that are shown on the dial. Another issue I am having is when my exposure dial is not set at specific value, then I cannot set ISO to Auto no matter what value I select on the dial. If I do select the different exposure compensation values, then I choose A for ISO, the camera will activate the front commend dial to manually change ISO values. To get in Auto ISO, the shutter speed cannot be set in auto and the ISO dial should be set at 125, when I turn the ISO wheel, it seems like the numbers are misaligned by one value, If I put the dial on A with shutter speed manual, then it will trigger the front commend dial. The other issue that I am having is when I have Aperture, shutter speed and ISO on manual, If I change the exposure dial compensation + or - , it actually changes the exposure of the picture as well as the ISO value, which as I understand, if Camera is in full manual, the exposure dial should do nothing. The last issue that I am having, if I do have ISO in manual at a set value, and adjust exposure compensation dial, it alters my ISO instead of my shutter speed or my aperture, even though ISO is in Manual and the other two dials are in Automatic. I am not really sure if all of this is by design and I am just not understanding how everything works together, but it seems really odd how everything changes. Resetting the camera settings didn’t help.

      Remote Release suddenly stopped working

      By FSND · Posted

      I also have the eaxct problem with my X-T5. The remote used to work, but not anymore. I also get the light coming on on the camera back, and autofocus will happen, but no shutter release. Since I use the 2 or 10 seconds timer more I don't know if a firmware update is the cause of this negative change. I actualley only use the wired jack-remote for action release on a tripod.  Did anybody find a cause, and even more assisting, a solution?

      On my XPro 2 the rear command dial, when pressed, can cycle through 3 different magnification levels in the OVF.
