Getting back to processing, I really think those of you who use ACR or Lightroom should learn to use eXposure a bit more in order to get the most from your Sinar files. It can be difficult to use without the easy controls that are offered in ACR/LR, but from my tests the eXposure files when carefully processed show far superior detail, more natural colour, smoother gradations from one colour to another, and finer grain compared to the same file treated in ACR/LR. Sinar is well known for being very obsessed with quality, and sometimes will not include features if they degrade the quality of the output.
Below is an example of a 100% crop of an 800ISO shot taken with my eMotion 75LV. The one on the left was processed in ACR, with no sharpening and 25% colour NR. The one on the right is the eXposure version. You can see the hairs are finer, with better edges, the red is better, and the gradations are smoother in colour and tone.
I hope this shows why I believe eXposure to be very underrated software as far as processing goes, but admittedly a little short on features. From all the raw processing software I've seen, eXposure gives the best 100% details, with no 'wobbly' or painterly texture that others give. Whether this matters once an image is printed up for debate I suppose.
