[Leica] Fuji X Pro-1 Conversion Comparison

[r.s.taylor at comcast.net (Richard Taylor)]

Here are the results of four different conversion processes of one X Pro-1 
shot.  All the images were exported from LR 4.1 as high quality JPGs.  

1. Copy as DNG and import into LR 4.1

2. Copy without conversion from RAF file and import into LR 4.1

3. Process RAF file in Silky Pix RAW converter and import into LR 4.1.  The 
TIF file looks just the same opened directly in Photoshop as it does here so 
the importation did not effect the file.

4. And finally the in-camera JPG copied without conversion into LR 4.1.

To me the in-camera JPG looks a bit over sharpened, but opinions can differ 
on that.  It's really superior to any other process at the moment, though.  
Even the Silky Pix RAW converter doesn't come close.
