Silkypix now supports X3F (all) and DP1s announced!

Slikypix beta for windows users:
http://www.isl.co.jp/SILKYPIX/japanese/special/sigma/download/
Someone with windows tried yet?

DP1s announcement that says very little:
http://www.sigma-photo.co.jp/english/news/091002_SIGMA_DP1s.htm

"It is now possible to allocate the QS (Quick Set) function, which has been adopted by the DP2 and SD14 DSLR, to the digital zoom buttons of the DP1s." Does that mean they used the same DP1 layout of buttons? And no info about speed. hmm..

Do you understand how to download the beta? Not being familiar with Japanese the web link in a bit cryptic... Thanks

It seems that the program works much faster than SPP (CPU - i7 920), but the language - only the Japanese.

there is an example of what you should fill in the right column

and uncheck the newsletter (i don't speak japanese too) below...

Google translated version seems easy enough, enter email and push button

What kind of settings did you use in the both applciations ?

For my opinion, Silkypix produces a more saturated picture with a strange contrast in the sky, leading to loose a lot of details...

I shall try to install Silkypix this week-end on my netbook, and I shall give also my impressions after...

Have a nice week-end !

is that the only thing good/better about Silkypix for X3F?

Giving up Filll Light should come with some better improvemnets I'd say.

bluewonder · Oct 2, 2009

ups, quite a differences?
they gave up fill light?
one of the most important features for me.

lowfreq · Oct 2, 2009

so far this SilkyPix looks pretty good to me.. now we just have to find out what some of those parameters mean.. anyone willing to translate?

And that's the reason for ??? everywhere. But it really doesn't matter, can't read japanese anyways.

Video will show up as HD soon.

ok that's what i thought.. i am getting around myself by playing with the parameters.. i really like this program and possibly better than spp to my eyes which makes me really excited..

have you found the sharpening parameter??
