Iridient X-Transformer 2.0 Released With Full Apple Silicon Support


At long last Iridient X-Transformer 2.0 has finally been released!!
This major update to the X-Transformer application brings a new RAW processing pipeline optimized for both Apple silicon (M1/Pro/Max) and Intel processors, improved luminance and color noise reduction, new sharpening masking options, new clarity processing, a wider adjustment range for sharpening and noise reduction levels, the ability to save adjustment presets to file, new Lightroom plug-in preferences with file naming prefix/suffix customization and sub-folder options, a new option to automatically taper sharpening strength off as ISO increases and more. X-Transformer now runs natively on Apple silicon (M1/Pro/Max) which provides much faster application launch and most processing operations now run 30-50% faster!

Version 2 updates for the rest of the Iridient Transformer applications will follow soon.

New X-Transformer 2.0 RAW camera support includes:
Fujifilm: GFX 100S, X-E4, GFX 50S II and X-T30 II.

24hr Luminar Neo Black Friday Sale 60% Off Coupon Deal


If you’re at all interested in giving Luminar a try there has never been a better time. I personally use all of their software in plugin form currently because I just can’t bring myself to leave the layout of Lightroom yet, but I love Luminars colors with Fujifilm files and I always run images through Luminar apps when looking for just the right color. Granted it’s not the most efficient way to work, but most of the time Luminar produces a look that I just can’t get in Lightroom.

To get the best savings use the code neo5off during checkout directly from Luminar to save $5 additional dollars. The single-seat license discount is good, but the 2 seat option is a bargain that you should check out if you can use the extra copy.

Fujifilm Full Spectrum Fujifilm X-E3


Fujifilm cameras are already very IR sensitive but I decided to pick up a full spectrum Fujifilm X-E3 to use for a variety of projects I’m working on including astrophotography. The first set of filters I purchased for this camera are the Desmond ICE Infrared 3 Filter Set 82mm IR 760 850 950 82 Optical Glass Slim. Desmond ICE isn’t really a well-known name, but the filters are high quality. You can see some examples I shot with these filters below before and after white balancing on green.

These shots were taken during a very cloudy overcast day in between rain showers with a 7Artisan 35mm f/0.95 and it seems to be a pretty good lens for IR wide open, but I haven’t tried to stop it down yet. Many lenses are ok wide open for IR but fall apart as you stop down so I might develop a guide over time. I also like the look of a full spectrum camera without a filter because it reminds me of old-school Kodak films like Kodachrome.

If you have any questions or things you would like me to test feel free to comment below or contact me directly. You can also strike up a conversation in our groups. If I enjoy Full Spectrum enough I may even convert my GFX100 when Fujifilm releases a better GFX camera.
