I guess if you want to call when I first joined dpi in 2011 new; so be it.
I am definitely new to the Fuji forum.
The only area I was in for most of my time was the Dante's.
This was not an attack on Ashwin, I don't know you or your work.
I am informed you are very knowledgeable and that's great.
The original post just appeared to be piling on when Jono reported an issue.
docmore; I will be shooting more greens when greens finally reappear from under the damn snow. Now that I know Jono is a guy, great. I apologize for the inadvertent gender swap.
I don't usually post unless there is something I can add or help with.
I have tried every bloody raw processor on the planet tying to get the x-trans images the way I want and finally have them printing large and beautiful (to me) with capture one and photo ninja.
So just relax everyone, if you feel it is necessary to chastise me, have a great time.
Don't condescend to me. Don't write me off as a newbie. I may mistake your gender. I may take umbrage with a comment. I will always try to help if it is within my skill set. I will not call you names (sticks and stone and all that.). I will continue to enjoy GetDPI.

Jon
Jon,
Let me apologize for the rather brusque response to your post...not typical from me and in the light of day seems harsh...again not the best wording.
This is a great place to learn about equipment from folks who stress it to an amazing extent in shooting and post process. An occasional wonky piece of gear can lead to a lot of handwringing and bandwidth. But overall we learn what works and what to avoid.
I so want to find a Fuji product that will answer all of my petty desires and "needs" - IQ like my Alpa TC and Rodenstocks, color like my S2-P, ease of carry and use like my Mamiya 7 (NO scanning please...:ROTFL
Fuji glass is great and this sensor is - like the Sigma - an attempt to improve on a kludge that the Bayer sensors have in common. Did I say battery life....and should I mention I have 8 batteries for my Df 5 for my A7r and 4 for the Leica M-E.
Small size, dead on accurate AF and a VF that mimics the Nikon F3HP.
Oh I would like to swim with it occasionally....
Fuji glass is wonderful and inexpensive, colors are fabulous ...
And I should admit I would be in the midst of this had either of my local camera stores not sold out of the X-T1 in less than two days...no one on their pre-order lists backed out...all previous Fuji owners.
I look forward to this resolving and admit I am a bit surprised that two years into the X-Trans most of the big players are still chasing Fuji OOC JPGs...
I too spent a lot of time in the MF forum but when my Epson 4900 died I realized that all of the expense for an occasional 11x17 was unwarranted...
Now ... just need to find one camera that will allow me to do all the above...got to be one out there!
Again, no offense was intended and look forward to your input.
Regards,
Bob
