For the moment there is no perfect support to develop RAF RAW file from X Trans sensor

All software including the camera engine suffer from 2 issues, color bleeding and corresponding loss, smearing of fine details. It might be a big issue (photos of congress posters with huge bleeding of titles and headers on the background) or an intermediate level of  concern (foliage, depending of the nature and importance of foliage)

This prevents to sueeze all the potential juice from the Raw file

That said the JPEGs are extraordinary good much better than in any other camera but ot's still disppointing not to be able to get better res from the RAW file

It remains  however all the PP possibilities with RAW : color, t°,etc....

To get the best just now I play with ACR or Silkypix or Helicon Filter 5 according to the nature of the photo and the known rendition of each program

All in all my X Pro1 gives a similar res than the canon 5D3 with much better OOC rendition of shadows and highlights

The big software fims will start to move as soon as it will a sensible market for them and that will probably occur soon with XE1 and a set of new lenses.
