With Iridient, once I select more detailed for mosaicing, I have not found a need for additional sharpening with Iridient, so I set it to zero. Some sharpening is generally done early on (even Nik has a RAW pre-sharpener). Obviously, this is all subjective, but there are different types of sharpening. I might process a couple hundred photos this way for family sharing, photo books, etc., but if I do any fine art printing, I'll go back to the RAF file and use a proper workflow from the beginning and the setting I would choose mirror yours. I'm just pointing out that I haven't found any ill effects of using low sharpening in Transformer for things like vacation pics where all I'm going to do in Lightroom apply a color profile, and possibly crop and/or highlight and shadow adjustments. I absolutely agree it is a best practice to sharpen last. They still seem to be working well for me but it would be interesting to know what setting others are using in IXT. I believe the settings shown earlier in this thread are those I posted in several threads as a starting point. However, when I resize for output or the web I use the high pass filter in PS (and Elements?) at lowest (0.3 radius) setting and vary the blend modes as necessary.

I find that full size images often don't require sharpening once everything else is adjusted. (3) Noise reduction is also best done before sharpening so that noise itself is not being sharpened and exaggerated. (2) Sharpening can introduce artifacts which may be further exaggerated by other adjustments. (1) sharpening is applying edge contrast so you should make your other adjustments first. I think it is good practice to sharpen as the final step. I wouldn't do this for shots that really need selective sharpening like portraits, but I will when batch processing lots of vacation photos of landscape. However, I do very little to most of my images and Lightrooom and find it is ok to add low sharpening in X-Transformer as long as I just assign a color profile, crop, and adjust shadow and highlights in LR. I believe the recommendation to turn off sharpening in X-Transformer is based on the workflow best practice of sharpening at the end. Use these settings that someone here posted before. However now I use Capture One instead so no more need to convert the files since it does about as good a job as Iridient When I used X-transformer + LR I converted all the RAF's and then imported the DNG's in to LR. You can probably still get worms if you apply too much sharpening, though.Ģ. The watercolor effect is almost non-existent with X-transformer.
The whole point of using X-transformer is to get rid of the artifacts and to retain more details in your photos.

E.g do you bulk convert all RAF to DNG before import or do it in LR? Do you keep or delete RAF files after conversion? For Mac users, have you automated your workflow using Automator or Services?ġ.
as x-transformer Lightroom plugin users can you share workflow your best practices & suggestions. The RAF / Iridient DNG files coming out of the X-T3 for my needs are awesome.Ģ. E.g do you bulk convert all RAF to DNG before import or do it in LR? Do you keep or delete RAF files after conversion? For Mac users, have you automated your workflow using Automator or Services?īTW the panicky threads here in recent days about DR, noise, etc were i.m.o. as x-transformer Lightroom plugin users can you share workflow your best practices & suggestions. after converting a RAW file to DNG using Iridient, will Lightroom still create the same artefacts from the DNG as when using the RAF file, or does the DNG offer full remediation of the issue?Ģ. I have two questions for existing x-transformer plugin users.ġ. Spoiler alert for new users: using Iridient in LR is simple and seamless.

Paul Elliott's youtube video provided a simple comparison of Iridient vs Lightroom RAW conversion and how to install the plugin in lightroom.
The lack of X-T3 RAW support in Lightroom at the moment led me to try Iridient X-Transformer based on the rave reviews in this forum.
