If only I could combine my favorite features of every editor in one! But with the availability of this converter for very affordable $30 (I must say very worth it!), I might go back to using Lightroom more-we'll see. I usually use Nik from Photshop Elements interface.Īnyway, I'd say that the results in terms of resolution and sharpening are a wash between Iridient and PhotoNinja in my limited testing so far-this is my first evening with Iridient, but I will use it more in the coming weeks, and I've been using PhotoNinja for a year. So far, I all but abandoned Lightroom for Fuji files and have been quite happy with PhotoNinja and SilkyPix DS7 Pro + free Nik suite for stuff like tonal contrast enhancer (wonderful tool!) and dfine noise reduction as needed. This is my first time ever trying out Iridient, because I don't have a Mac. So there might be some triple-level sharpening: once in Iridient X-Transofrmer, once in Lightroom settings, once when exporting to JPEG (say, if you use Sharpen for Screen option). Watch out for the sharpening: Adobe does default sharpening, and your converted files will have some sharpening already applied to them in the conversion process, as you specify. I like that when importing the resulting DNG files into Lightroom, built-in Fuji film simulations work! So you can still apply, say, Classic Chrome to the result. Works very similar to the free Adobe DNG converter but with more customization options (such as default sharpening level, default corrections, bit depth, etc., etc.)
