If it's important enough to get the shot might as well check your white balance at the time and capture in Jpeg. You can lead a horse to water, but I just spent loads of money on a camera with an advanced sensor. I know I'll use a file format that throws away all that extra information I've never looked back once form using RAW.
I think the only thing that neeeds an extra step is outputing jpegs for photo books. But before I used RAW i pp the jpgs any way. When I'm out walking I'd far rather snap and correct latter than miss the view and get left behind worrying about white balance.
To my mind comparing Raw with JPEG equates to comparing Negative with Polaroid - Lightroom has been the most rewarding investment I've made; simultaneously simplifying and accelerating my "workflow" managing my files, cataloging and, with. DNG, embedding descriptive metadata into the files themselves, applying image adjustments and embedding them non-destructively. If one's serious enough about photography to invest in a raw capable camara then I see little excuse for overlooking raw's DNG's numerous advantages.

What do you do with them? I know, I agree. It's a transitional phase I guess. Ever since I dumped all my heavy glass and gone "compact" my smallest camera is the Oly Epl2 , I seem to be on a quest for the perfect small package.
Which of of course doesn't exist and possibly never will.. So you dump your DSLR gear and replace it with many mediocre compacts that you know you'll hardly ever be happy with? Ummm, ok? Alberto, first of all, you should go and see a doctor, because you suffer from "compacts-buying disease".
I like my XZ-1 a lot, but it is too similar to the X I picked one and got to know it really, really well. Read the manual, set my preferences for various shortcuts and controls, and now it fits me. You should make sure you have exhausted the capabilities of one of those excellent cameras before believing that you should buy another one. Much less a third.

Tom Goodman This roundup needs to be updated. Barney Britton It will be. Realfi A comprehensive review of the X10 with revised sensor please! Can't wait to play with it. Sebmour I have owned a fuji X10 for the last 2 weeks. Wim Banink Took it to Paris last week: it's getting better learning how touse it properly: The X10 is: surprising everybody good looking easy ier to handle a GREAT little camera Next city trip will be whitout bulky SLR Exif read out shows that the zoom range is just right Regards from Holland sadly enough ;-.
Alfie Smith enjoy your orbs! Wim Banink Having used the XZ1 and the X10 for more than 2 months now as a former G7, 10 and 12 owner you'll get much better results from both the XZ1 and the X10, build around very good optics, being very different camera's. Regarding the so called ORB's of the Fuji; firmware is on the way, but in everyday photography it isn't that obvious as claimed by some: so start taking pictures, and stop writing about camera's you've never really used, and enjoy..
Best regards from Holland. Lyteskrybe Not surprizingly, the Olympus XZ-1 with its Zuiko has the best lens and that's evident in dpreview's widget test-shot comparisons available in its review. Can't beat the results you get at that price. How many of you are using the ridiculously pricey lens hood system? Any others notice this gaping flaw? I believe the hood for the X is the same.
SweetPotato My experience with cameras is enough to choose a path and understand enough to learn. Inars Choose Fuji, if price not important, Nikon - for zoom or Pana for small camera with good fast lens.
Dabbler If you're shooting indoors you can't go wrong with the XZ Damage Inc The Canon G12 seems the one to go with. Wohlf People keep thinking about the G Nudibranco I strongly disagree with the conclusions as well. As always a lot of good work in your review.
TypoGraff I have been looking for a sidekick to my Canon T2i system for about 6 months. Robert Deutsch The first EX1 I got produced images that were sharp in the center, but noticeably softer on the top lef corner than on the top right. Richard Butler We looked at more than one EX1 and this one was representative of the ones we'd seen. Wohlf You nearly ignored Olympus XZ. EricPT Um, the X10 has a 2. Maybe YOU should do your homework better. The difference mainly is cost and power consumption.
IEBA1 If you plan on shooting video, CCD will render all motion accurately and flashes that are not yours from other cameras or strobes will appear full frame, just as we perceive them with our eyes. I can't speak to the difference for stills. Barney Britton We're working on improving the navigation in articles, we know the current way of arranging pages isn't ideal.
Barney Britton Fixed now, we had a corrupted image. The link works and always did. Richard Shih They do not. Element42 Dumb question to the other owners of the Fuji X AbrasiveReducer It's not a dumb question.
Element42 Thanks folks. Why not at least mention it? Barney Britton Because it's not sensibly comparable in terms of everyday 'real world' shooting. LarryLatchkey Thanx for reply! Michael The summary of the XZ-1 in this article seems inconsistent with the full on test of the camera where it received much greater praise. Cy Cheze Flare tends to mar low light shots at wide aperture. Lyle Aldridge Great article, Barney! What shabby behaviour. Barney Britton We have a full review of the S very nearly finished :.
Gorrddd Barney, I just finished reading the review on the S and found it to be excellent. P is for normal shooting, everything at auto speed turned up in light scenes A when using a tripod outdoor, high aperture and low iso, IS off S for moving subjects, high shutter speed and high auto iso plus low aperture M at fixed lighting situations with best aperture for sharpness on base iso Having these settings ready makes my workflow much more easy, though i can understand that people who have different work situations would like settings to be dependent; i suggest fujifilm make a option to choose either setting!
RichGK Did the reviewer mean that the settings reset to defaults when you change, or that the settings reset to what they were the last time you used that setting? Please please please.
