X100 images thread...let's get this party started....

Anyone here using Apple Aperture to process RAW from the X100? I took some shots today with DR=200% and shot JPG+RAW. In LR the RAW would have been a stop underexposed. Aperture, however, appears to be compensating for the DR setting. What is interesting is that sometimes it seems to do a better job than the OOC JPG. For example, both just exported with no adjustments:

JPEG:

Hmm, that's interesting... I use Lightroom 3, and I do notice that my shots do look much brighter on the camera than they do after they've been imported into Lightroom, but they handle being brought back up quite well.

Actually I think this was mainly a one-off. I think the JPGs at DR200 tend to be better overall, for example, they hold better detail of tree branches against a bright section of sky. These tend to get lost somewhat by Aperture's interpretation and indeed by bringing the exposure up in LR. That's what I think for now anyway!

Here's some newer photos from the X100. I'm starting to explore how it handles really low light. It's fun to just get a general exposure and keep your ISO, aperture and shutter set and leave it that way while you wander around, much like I do with film and an M6. Just snap away and use the camera's exposure latitude as a safety net.





 
Excellent pano and portrait mojo.
Death Valley images look great Graham.
I also use Aperture sapphie.
I like the dark mood Ollil.
Low light images are quite nice Wozza604.
 
Don't post too often, but here are a few from a Nutcracker rehearsal.
Use a D3s and 70-200 on my shoulder and x100 around my neck.
Makes for a versatile combo.
I generally have to zone and/or manually focus the x100.

Thanks Lee

This thread appears to be pretty dead.

This camera takes very nice photos, its small, easy to use (although that doesn't seem to be the common thought) and is a pleasure to own. I can see the obvious quality in photos from you and others but it's not getting much attention anymore.

Not here maybe but X100forum.com and seriouscompacts.com are more active.

I think the camera is fantastic and I still don't take my K5 out!

Thanks,

I have visited the x100 forum from time to time but I need to take a look at SeriousCompacts.

This was handheld at 1/6th sec. Very little noise - thanks Fuji. :thumbup:
