SilkyPix is the only RAW software that can properly demosaic EXR RAFs into HR as well as DR/SN modes, so it does have some stand-out functionality at least with that generation sensor.Īs I commented before, it seems to do the best job of matching the in-camera profiles and development preferences when compared to other programs. Is the demosaic function the same for both the RAW File Converter and the Silkypix Studio software?Īs to the special working relationship, maybe. Is there some special working relationship between Fuji and Silkypix that would give Silkypix an advantage over other software companies when working with RAF files? Can I Save As or Export a file from Silkypix as a DNG file? Considering the above, can any Silkypix users tell me, Quite likely, I'll want to stick with my Lightroom subscription, so after demosaicing in Silkypix, I will want to import the file into Lightroom for more editing, cataloging, etc. Nevermind, found the RAW converter on Fuji's website, 'powered by Silkypix.'. Looking at the Silkypix website I see several versions of the 'Studio' software for sale, but I did not find any mention of the RAW File Converter. My Fuji X-E2 came with an install disc which includes 'RAW File Converter for Mac' and also 'Silkypix Studio for Windows' (which is no use on my Mac). The only reason I am considering Silkypix would be to see if there is any benefit when demosaicing Fuji RAF files compared to Adobe Lightroom (subscription).

Trying to decide if I want to try Silkypix software, but I don't know anything about it.
