Thomas walks you through his developing/adjusting several files and then processing them further in Lightroom once they’re back.

IRIDIENT DEVELOPER VS ON1 HOW TO

The video demonstrates how to send files quickly to Iridient Developer, some common settings that Thomas and I use and how to send files back. This is the same workflow that I use myself, Iridient Developer for the heavy RAW processing conversion, then Lightroom for the finishing and catalogue/ archiving functions. This fairly lengthy video tutorial shows Thomas Fitzgerald’s process and workflow for working with both Lightroom, and Iridient Developer to get the optimum quality from Fuji X-Trans files. ON1's working now for me pretty decently for the most part but for 55 bucks I think ACDSee might be a great back up to have loaded on my computer in case SHTF again.Using Iridient Developer and Lightroom for Processing Fujifilm X-Trans Files from Thomas Fitzgerald on Vimeo.

IRIDIENT DEVELOPER VS ON1 UPGRADE

This latest ON1 upgrade played havoc on my computer and was also pretty much unusable for over a week and I had a bunch of images to edit, that's when I knew I needed a backup (other that lightroom). I've learned the programs strengths and weaknesses over the last 9 months and can really get some great results with it. ON1 is really easy for this and that's why I like it so much. I don't do hardly any really heavy editing but I do like or need to occasionally do local adjustments with brushes, use filters etc. I have until July 18th before their special of 55 bucks expires and then I think its back up to around 100 bucks to buy it.

I'm gonna load the trial version of ACDSee pro 2018 this weekend and play around with it when I get time. Yeah, Capture One isn't really on my radar at all at this point. Remember that I could have achieved exactly the same end-result from Photo Editor. Photo Ninja will still get the 'heavy lifting' if I've been shooting very high ISOs or in 'impossible' light but I'm more and more impressed by the end-to-end capabilities of ADCsee's offerings. I recommend Photo Ninja and ACDSee products purely because they're better than the rest in any test/evaluation that I've undertaken, for the things I need from a converter - detail/acuity, highlight/shadow handling, clean detailed demosaicing. I was also part of Raw Therapee's development team back in the day, so I think I can lay some claim to an 'informed perspective' when it comes to raw converters. Note that I've been a beta tester for both DxO and Phase One (Capture One Pro) and was on the path to Adobe Certified Professional (LightRoom). Colour is spot-on Highlights and shadows managed very well (the head was black, with no visible detail, in the Raw preview) and plenty of of fine detail/texture in the plumage and beak. It's a good indication of how capable ACDSee is, I reckon. You can brush native ACDSee sharpening on without using the plugin, incidentally - I'm just comfortable with Topaz Detail's results, but if I decide that I can get similar results from within ACDSee, Detail will get less use. I've converted resized added a signature 'Light EQd' the shadows and highlights 'healed' some distracting background stuff and sharpened by selectively applying a 'Deblur' at a strength of 17, in Topaz Detail (called from within Photo Studio). I've just turned it out from Raw, in less than 5 mins. Not my best image from last weekend, but challenging, as it was shot in intense light, so the shadows and darks were really dark the highlights and lights really light.
