I’ve matched the results visually by eye, and this is only my first iteration of this theory, so there is absolutely room for improvement. Using this method you won’t be able to use the Film Simulation modes, and the file sizes will be relatively large. I’m only really showing this as an experiment, but if you want to try it go ahead. There’s a whole range of reasons as to why this is a bad idea. Read on to find out more… Important Disclaimerīefore I get into the instructions, a couple of quick disclaimers! First of all, I don’t recommend this as a workflow. So, after spending some time experimenting, I’ve come up with a possible solution. While there is no direct way to do this in the exact same way it is with Iridient X-Transformer, getting these questions did get the cogs in my brain working! I wondered if there was a way one could use Capture One’s flat profile to achieve something similar. Taken with a Samyang 12mm.I’ve often gotten questions from readers as to whether there is any way to use Capture One Express in a similar fashion to Iridient X-Transformer, in order to produce a file that you can then import into Lightroom for further editing. I can upload the original raw file somewhere, if it would be needed by anyone. If I can get similar results with other types of pictures, I will certainly buy a license for IT. Would other IT settings enhance the picture even more? Do you use different settings for every raw file you convert, or do you have a more general approach using the same settings for all pictures? I assume the result will differ with other types of images, like portraits for example, and I will try IT with such a picture later, with the "RAW process" being be set to "Smoother".īut I would like to hear comments from you guys - with much more experience in this area. Without in any way being an expert, I would say that the difference is staggering! I mean the one converted by IT is a much more clear and sharp as I see it, at least when zoomed in. I have cropped them the same way and exported them to jpeg (with Sharpen for screen, Low), without making any other corrections.

I made a copy of one of my images and converted it with IT to DNG, then imported it into Lightroom together with the original RAF file. I have been using Lightroom only for my images and since the Iridient Transformer (IT) has been recommended by many people, I wanted to see if I could figure how to use it - and downloaded the demo. I bought myself an X-T20 a few months ago and I have been following various threads about how to get the best from my fuji raw files.
