Fujifilm X-Trans Artifacts

Image
There seems to be a lot of misinformation on the web regarding the cause (and cure) for the fractal artifacts that affect some images captured with Fujifilm's X-Trans sensor cameras.  The problem stems from the inability of some image processing software, notably products from Adobe such as Lightroom and Photoshop, to correctly interpolate the RAW data due to Fujifilm's use of a non-Bayer colour filter array over the image sensor. This is an image captured with a Fujifilm X-T3 camera and processed in Lightroom: Fujifilm X-T3, XF 10-24mm f4 @ 24mm, 1/210 sec @ f5.6, ISO 160 At first glance, the image looks quite nice; sharp, and with lots of rich colour the Fujifilm cameras are noted for.  However, on closer inspection, the fine details in the image, such as the pebbles on the beach, look strange and distorted: 100% crop of above image At the limited upload size, it may be difficult to discern the artifacts, so here is a 200% crop of the same image: Now the fractal artifacts are

L-Brackets and Remote Cables for the Fuji GFX 50S

Image
I've been enjoying most aspects of the Fuji GFX 50S camera for my landscape photography, but some of the decisions by Fuji's designers have me scratching my head.  Fuji obviously understands that photographers will sometimes use the camera in the vertical ("portrait") orientation, since they wisely decided to make the rear LCD articulate in that plane.  However, they must not have considered that many serious photographers, myself included, use quick-release L-brackets for mounting the camera on a tripod.   Fuji's decision to move the battery door to the left side of the camera means that the battery cannot be replaced without requiring tools to remove or reposition the L-bracket.  I initially purchased a Really Right Stuff L-bracket, being familiar with the quality products RRS normally produces.  The RRS L-bracket design is a clever two-piece arrangement with a screw that can be loosened to re-position the vertical portion of the bracket - unfortunately, it

Rufous Hummingbirds

Image
Our migratory Rufous hummingbirds ( Selasphorus rufus) have recently arrived for the summer, and are grudgingly sharing the feeders with the resident Anna's hummingbirds.  I managed to capture some nice photos this week with the new (to me) Olympus M.Zuiko 100-400mm f5-6.3 IS lens on my Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless cameras.
