saw a few videos on image "bit rates" and see that Jpegs are kinda out dated, thought that maybe cameras like fuji with users that may not shoot raw would benefit in a file format that's higher bit rates for better color quality. (i do notice it especially in the blue skys not having smooth color transitions but still got a negative response that higher bit rates are just a waste of memory space and only for editing) - things like phones that we mostly consume images wont matter. (I disagree for our phones are also getting better with better colors going up to 4k and more dynamic color quality that it would/should make a difference. 
then here comes this video by "tony & chelsea Northrump" making a video "jpg cost you thousands: lets change it" video talking about moving on from Jpeg. and there's really no down sides besides added up front cost in return to get more quality photos in the long run.

heif / heic format is a huge improvement over jpeg , and i hope fujifilm implement it as soon as possible ,atleast as a option to export to heif/heic in "FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO"

Personal opinion:  Those two idiots are often more wrong than right. Proceed with caution.  JPEG's are the World standard.

Nuff said.

I guess they're not wrong this time . Because heic/heif has lot of improvement , for example ,we can upload Higher resolution images to printing site's Which has upload size limits ,so we can still get way better detailed prints , without a change of upload size limits . This just one of the advantages and there is a lot of advantages in adopting heic/heif format .

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
