Not much new, other than support for new cameras and some more Leica lenses and some minor bug fixes.

Looks like it has preliminary support for Apple's Retina displays in the Develop module.  Why the hell they call it HIDPI though makes no sense.  Are there any other displays out there in the 250+ DPI range?

Why it was called 'Retina' would be a better question.

I wish they would fix the issues with the Fuji X-Pro 1 raw conversions. That to me would be a worthwhile update.

Because the angular resolution (sort of) matches that of the human retina ..., just guessing.

Cheers,

Beginning to wonder if they ever will. You would think they could at least get the conversions up to the quality of silky pix and RPP.

Probably because the feature is specific for the Apple machines with the Retina display, and not applicable elsewhere because there are no other displays with equivalent DPI where this feature works?

The reason it's called a retina display is well documented.  Perhaps you're just being obtuse.

SilkyPix is made by ISL which supplies its software or license its code to a number of camera manufacturers... now either Fuji and ISL had an agreement that precludes Fuji to give their methods of demosaicking and false color/artefacts suppression to 3rd parties (read Adobe) or there is no real reason for Adobe not to receive that from Fuji by now when ISL received that w/o such an agreement between ISL and Fuji... or Adobe (that will be a particular person there) genuinely thinks that they do better for X-Trans CFA than ISL/Fuji.
