XPro1 | Raw To The Core
August 17, 2021A lot has been written regarding The XPro 1 Files and how they render.
I struggled a little bit to understand this fascination. Coming late to this party meant I did not experience the quirks of this Camera when it was first released.
I found The White Balance Presets too warm for my liking. Even my Kelvin settings at K5000 was still too warm. Dropping it down to K45000 improved things a little. I could begin to see what is consider to be the magical rendering of these files.
In the last week, I have gone back to basics and started shooting Raw and editing the files exactly to my taste.
Well now…
Things are looking up.
I am blown away by the richness and pop. Don’t forget, I feel it important to create my images perfectly in camera to stand any chance of a successful edit.
I am no expert in Lightroom - I know enough to improve the look and feel of my images. Photoshop to fine tune and just push it little bit, I am happy.
I feel differently about using this camera now - it delivers truly epic Raw Files which are ready for my digital dark room.
