And also Camera Arts. So I suspect he knows what he's doing. Here's what I find really interesting. This guy edited two seminal photo magazines and wrote books on Gene Smith and Earnst Haas. He edited the writing of master craftsmen like David Vestal. So what was his film RF gear before he went digital? Not a Leica. He prefers a Canon 7 and LTM Canon lenses. And he still wants to use those lenses on a modern mirrorless camera. He says they see like he sees. Food for thought. I'm a firm believer in RAW myself. But many users of Olympus E-series cameras who have found that the Olympus JPGs are so good that they can't do any better processing the RAWs. This of course assumes that they've gotten all the umpteen parameters set just right before they take the shot. There was not a lot of RAW support for the Fuji X-E1 and X-Pro1 when they came out, so some people got used to shooting JPG. It was that or use SilkyPix. :-) Duh, you think good sideways and horizontal... --Peter > I have the XE-1 on my list, and also noted that.
