And it worked, because Trolls attract Fanboys. An universal forum law. "Don't feed the troll" is a wise word, but unfortunately rarely applied. Fortunately, there are some constructive answers in ...

This software has a proprietary noise reduction method called "prime". It does wonders with m43 sensor, reducing noise while keeping details. It could solve your problem, maybe.

Yup, so those "cooked" Fuji RAW could be more tasty ;-)

Shooting with both systems for years, I can see a difference, but it is not big. The Fuji advantage for me is when working with shadows in landscapes, they are a bit cleaner. But use DXO and you ...

Most Fuji photographers avoid Adobe like the plague! If they did it deliberately, it was clearly not a good strategy :-P

My experience as a Fuji photographer for many years. Nearly all Fuji users know that, but I see it's fairly new to you. You need  to spend more time with Fuji ;-)

Yes, as it has been told you a couple of times now : Adobe cook XTrans files, not Fuji. Understood now?

Thank you very much for this great and detailed analyse, showing that  the problem (for XTrans files) is the use of ACR. There are many false conclusions spreading on forums because people use ACR ...

This is plainly wrong, but you can be excused because you have no experience with Fuji. Fuji RAW are true RAW. Everybody owning a Fuji knows that ACR is the worst software to use with Fuji raws. Pe ...

This gross universal faulty generalization is exactly what some people disput you. Your test is like driving two cars - say a Ferrari and a Honda - at the same speed and over the same distance, and ...

Oups, my bad, thanks for pointing that! He did mention the prints and banding in its OP, so I missunderstood (my bad english probably). Sorry to Ab Latchin about that. But that don't change the ...

With a bit more modesty and realism, you would have drawn the only conclusion you could from your "test" : all that it shows is that m43 and Fuji are equally good for printing at that size. It ...

Best thing to do I agree. Today post processing plays a huge role in the final image. Software like DXO and their Prime noise reduction are able to almost totally cancel the small noise penalty we ...

Based on two portraits print scans? Sorry, but you put too much importance on your "test". It is interesting, but much too limited to show what you claim universally. I shoot m43 and Fuji (enjoy ...

Thanks for that test, interesting. No doubts, the Oly has a better bokeh wide open, but it's not surprising as it is 2x more expensive. OTOH, the Fuji has the better sensor and color rendition, ...

Ricardo is spot on. I just think people who said that MICRO 43 isn't about size don't deserve a thread. It's totally nuts. But he was brave to do it with quotes and proofs, and at least it gave ...

You have a point there, the EM1X is "a one of its kind" camera, with nearly no mirrorless concurrence in this segment. But the real question is : how many photographers shooting in this segment ...

A tad too much optimistic perhaps. Olympus won't be the only camera maker in the compact segment like the author said. There's Panasonic, Fuji, Canon, Sony, Leica and probably Sigma in that segment ...

Those who say that m4/3 isn't about "size" convince nobody else than themselves. Quite frankly, do this lame argument used by one or two fanboys really deserves a thread ?

Agree, it could be useful. But there will always be a lot of situations where you'll need more than 1/60, even if the new IBIS provides more than 5 stops. But first, let's see if it's really ...
