All of my Fuji X-Trans Sharpening Presets for Lightroom in One Place
Over the past few years I've written a lot about processing [Fuji X-Trans files][0] in both Lightroom and other software. I've experimented lots of times with ways to improve the look of files from Lightroom, and in particular, on how to minimise the smearing effect that can sometimes occur with Fuji X-Trans files and fine details, especially foliage. I've worked out some sharpening settings in the past and posted them here, but that was a good while ago, and I've updated them several times with various different attempts. In order to save a bit of confusion and make it easier for everyone, I've put them altogether into one download, together with some new versions that I haven't shared in the past.
Based on popular demand, and in order to make these easier to find, I've put them as a free download on my Digital Download store. You can find them on the store here.
I also have some more Free "Faux Film" Lightroom presets for Fuji users which you can find here.
I know it's been a while since I posted much Fuji stuff, but I have lots more coming over the next few weeks. I've been working on a series of guides for processing X-Trans files in various software packages. .
[UPDATE] - The first two of these guides are available now. I have one for Capture One, which details my settings and workflow for working with Fuji X-Trans files in Capture One. The second is a comprehensive guide detailing how I process my Fuji X-Trans images in Lightroom. Both are available now from my Digital Download store.
I’ve had my Fujifilm X-E4 for a long time now, and for the most part it’s a great little camera. I’ve used it as my main “lightweight” travel and walk-around camera for years now. Any time I want to bring a camera with me and I don’t want to lug my Canon R6II, I throw the Fujifilm in the bag. I had originally bought it to replace my ageing Sony a6000 for street photography, but that never really panned out. Mainly because I didn’t do street photography as much any more, but also, an annoying bug in the camera made it difficult to use with my style of street photography. But I finally found a solution.
