Hi PeterGreat shots Ricardo!
WRT Irident - why not wait till LR or Capture One Pro support the EM5II files? I am more than happy with both for my EM5 and EM1 development, with C1Pro having a slight edge wrt IQ, noise reduction etc ....

Hi Jono,Hi Peter
Iridient is very useful - not just until lR supports cameras, but afterwards to look at lens corrections, it's also a very good converter in some conditions.
What is even better with it is that it integrates really well with LR - so that if you shoot JPG + RAW, and then import both into LR (with JPG as master) - when you use Iridient as the external developer it looks for the RAW file and uses that . . . and then over-writes the tiff file that LR created from the jpg.
I wrote an article about it:

These were developed with Iridient as a trial. I screen captured them. However, I did go on impulse and did buy a real License today. Part because I have been using Iridient from time to time this way and felt it was fair. Part because Iridient 3.0 can do great color, they improved the noise reduction and can already do 40 MP RAW files from the OMD EM5 MKII.Great shots Ricardo!

Iridient is also a prime RAW converter for Xtrans.
That said, LightRoom at least for the Nikon 1 does superb color noise removal, but more often than not, I don't like how the color comes out by default and it's a pain to get a color I want. This however, varies from RAW converter-camera combination.
I will agree with you it could very well be that LR does good support for the OMD EM5 MKII and then it would be a redundant thing, but we will see.

HI thereDoesn't work for me.
HI there
I've corrected my link - but of course I haven't corrected the quote in Peter's (it had two http/ in it!
Here it is again:
"http://www.slack.co.uk/2014/iridient.html'
and as a link Iridient Article
Incidentally - it I've described it in Aperture, but it works quite as well from LightRoom.
if it still doesn't work try this Article at Leica Forum
