![]() I’ve tested nine of Fuji’s XF lenses in the studio and in the field as well as used them for everyday shooting. The Fujinon lenses are exceptional, even the zooms. This option is a digital simulation of Fuji’s renowned black and white film of the same name.īut wait, there’s more. This is one of the few digital cameras I’ve owned (I’ve been shooting digital since the early 90s) with useable JPEGs and I especially like the Acros option. It’s amazing and wonderful to be able to instantly switch to the EVF (electronic viewfinder) for a more conventional mirrorless viewing experience with longer lenses or just if you want to. This is a small picture-in-picture window with a magnified view of the focus area in the lower right for critical focus. I love the OVF (optical viewfinder) when using lenses up to 56mm (85mm full frame equivalent.) And you can’t beat the ingenious “ERF” (electronic rangefinder). The Fuji X-Pro2 is an absolute pleasure to use. Though mostly Leica, I’ve owned and used many rangefinder cameras over the years. ![]() I want to address some aspects of real life use of the camera and especially aspects I haven’t seen addressed much in other reviews or profiles of the X-Pro2. I won’t go into every feature and setting as there are many solid reviews out there covering this. This is a brief bottom line story from my perspective as a full time professional photographer. X-Pro2 set on continuous auto focus and wide/tracking with Fujinon XF 55-200mm f3.5-4.5 zoom at 200mm (300mm FF equiv) f10, 1/320 sec. Not only did it accurately track the elk jumping the fence but is capable of 8 fps and the large buffer allows for more than enough raw frames for a burst of this type. Some elk came through my yard and I grabbed the X-Pro2. ![]() I didn’t have high expectations for auto focus speed and focus tracking but was pleasantly surprised by the accuracy and speed of the X-Pro2. Much of what I post applies to other Fuji cameras and the rest of the system (I posted Part 1 and Part 2 in May, 2016 Part 3 in June and Part 4 in Sept, and Part 5 in Dec) In the captions I provide the backstory of the shot along with technical info (non-tech folks just ignore the part at the end of the captions.) This post is the prologue for what has become my continuing series of the Fujifilm X-Pro2, XF lenses, and X-Pro Tour of images from my travels, stories behind the photos, and my thoughts and experiences with the Fuji X-Pro2 system in many different situations. ![]() In addition to that, there are a few more improvements and bug fixes we didn't mention, but if you want to try the application before purchasing it, you can download Iridient Developer 2.3.3 as a demo version directly from Softpedia.Updated See updates with red headings, green text Fujifilm X-E2 images that had the EXIF data modified to show as X100S images can now be loaded into the application without making it crash. ![]() ICC color profiles and camera curves have also been improved for various camera models, including: Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Sony, and others thanks to a newly developed internal camera calibration tool.Īmong the enhancements made in the new Iridient Developer version 2.3.3 is a fix for Leica (D-LUX) and Panasonic compact camera models to display proper crop size and positioning. If you were using the Adaptive Early Stage noise reduction, you should know that this feature is now able to recover even more details from your photos while providing similar noise reduction levels. Sharpening has also received a small boost, thanks to the new monochrome preview option added to the sharpening controls. That being said, you will now be able to use image drag and drop onto the preview window to open images. Recently, Iridient Digital has updated the application to version 2.3.3, adding support for a few newly released cameras, various improvements, and bug fixes.Īmong the newly supported digital cameras we can find Fujifilm's latest weather-sealed X-T1 flagship, Olympus' entry-level OM-D E-M10, Phase One's 50MP CMOS sensor IQ250 digital back, Panasonic's DMC-TZ60 (ZS40), and Canon's latest mirrorless camera, the EOS M2.īesides that, Iridient Developer also adds a few new features that will improve your workflow.
