But with the availability of this converter for very affordable $30 (I must say very worth it!), I might go back to using Lightroom more-we'll see. I usually use Nik from Photshop Elements interface.Р”Р„nyway, I'd say that the results in terms of resolution and sharpening are a wash between Iridient and PhotoNinja in my limited testing so far-this is my first evening with Iridient, but I will use it more in the coming weeks, and I've been using PhotoNinja for a year.

So far, I all but abandoned Lightroom for Fuji files and have been quite happy with PhotoNinja and SilkyPix DS7 Pro + free Nik suite for stuff like tonal contrast enhancer (wonderful tool!) and dfine noise reduction as needed. This is my first time ever trying out Iridient, because I don't have a Mac. So there might be some triple-level sharpening: once in Iridient X-Transofrmer, once in Lightroom settings, once when exporting to JPEG (say, if you use Sharpen for Screen option). Watch out for the sharpening: Adobe does default sharpening, and your converted files will have some sharpening already applied to them in the conversion process, as you specify. I like that when importing the resulting DNG files into Lightroom, built-in Fuji film simulations work! So you can still apply, say, Classic Chrome to the result. Works very similar to the free Adobe DNG converter but with more customization options (such as default sharpening level, default corrections, bit depth, etc., etc.) Noise reduction is optional and can be adjusted (low/med/high) or disabled.Just tried it out for a while.

The noise reduction processing in Iridient X-Transformer shares much in common with the latest noise reduction available in Iridient Developer and is specifically optimized for RAW image processing. The lens correction processing in Iridient X-Transformer uses the same high quality resampling algorithms as Iridient Developer. The lens correction stage is optional and lens correction information can also be passed on through DNG opcode metadata and left to later processing stages or ignored altogether. Corrections are based on native Fujifilm lens information specified in their RAF metadata.

Automatic lens corrections for distortion, chromatic aberration, and vignetting.

Sharpening is optional and can be adjusted (low/med/high) or disabled. Iridient X-Transformer features advanced sharpening based on the very highly regarded 'Iridient Reveal' sharpening algorithms featured in Iridient Developer. The algorithms are identical to the latest 'detail+' and 'smooth' options in Iridient Developer 3.1.4. There are two interpolation options, one for a more detailed rendering and a second smoother, lower artifact version. This processing is always applied by Iridient X-Transformer and cannot be disabled or undone.

This transforms the camera sensor's X-Trans or Bayer color filter information to produce a full color RGB image. The key RAW processing stages that can be applied by Iridient X-Transformer during conversion to DNG include: Iridient Developer is widely regarded as one of the highest quality RAW processors available.

The Iridient RAW processing routines have been in active development for over 12 years for use in Iridient Developer and have been optimized and refined over the years for the best possible image quality.

Much of the core RAW processing, sharpening, noise reduction and lens corrections featured in this program are shared with Iridient Developer a more full-featured RAW processor that is available only for macOS. Iridient X-Transformer is a utility that can be used to convert Fujifilm RAF images to DNG format using Iridient Digital's high quality RAW processing algorithms.
