software...what are YOU using

[back alley]

what software package are you using to process x100 raw files...

i'm guessing that over 90% will be answering lightroom...

lightroom all the way so far...

I don't have an X100 either but I suggest you look at ACDSee Pro as a possibility. A very nice program to use "if" it supports the X100 files...

Non Nikon files go thru Photoshop. CS5 raw processor and LR
have the same conversion engine and work exactly the same.

[willie_901]

Lightroom.

Occasionally I'll send an image to PSE-9 to repair errors on the part of the photographer.

I'm using Aperture, but the JPEGs out of the X100 are so nice....

[umcelinho]

Paintbrush.

Convert the files from RAF to tifs with Sickly Pix then do the necessarys in ACDSee Pro 3.

I can't afford the latest RAF compliant version of Lightroom and I'm very used to working with ACDSee.

Mostly Lightroom but on occasion PS. Jim

I love ACDSee Pro but their updating of raw file support is god awful. I had my M8 a long time before they eventually got around to including Leica's DNG format.

I note they are now up to version 4 (I have version 3) and when they include support for RAF files I'll be a happy camper. Their user interface is far better than Lightroom IMO.

read up more on RPP and whilst it might not be fast it seems to do a better job than ACR and it passes converted files direct to any application that you add to its list.
So you should be able convert from RAF with some controls and when you hit save it opens the file in PSE. So the only downside is the speedand little learning but you get best quality raw conversion.
Just sayin.....

LR as it's a great workflow without leaving the program...
unless you want to.

Don't have an X100 but Capture One Pro is my RAW developer. Photoshop (almost) not needed, Lightroom retained as DAM.

Don't have an X100 either, but find the Aperture interface a lot better than Lightroom, and the former is very good at highlight recovery.

Lightroom, but have stopped using RAW as the in-camera jpg engine is so good.

SilkyPix is very nasty.

So LR with Auto-DR enabled is giving very good results. If it goes to 400% then just push the fill light slider to taste, the highlights are very well protected.

I am interested in trying Capture One Pro though.

I don't own a X100 but my son uses the FinePix S6500fd and for raws preprocessing we use RawTherapee, before entering Gimp if any further processing is required.

Lightroom, but shooting jpegs as I prefer the output to what I get from LR and they are more than good enough.
