Fuji sensor not so great with random patterns?

[Hans van Driest]

I have no personal experience with this camera, but it seems well regarded for its sensor. No AA filter, less moire etc. good lenses as well.
then I saw this; http://diglloyd.com/blog/2012/20120922_1-Fuji-XPro1-Leica135.html

is it just Lloyd Chambers who noticed this?

at least you do not need to buy some Topaz plugins now

The problem is with how Adobe is processing the RAW image, if you use the converter that comes with the camera, it works just fine. Also implementations of DCRaw do not have the color smearing that adobe has, there has been no acknowledgement from Adobe as to whether or not they are doing anything about it. Capture One is working with Fuji to implement support. The problem with Chambers example is he has applied a lot sharpening to the image which really makes it become exaggerated. You can make it a lot less obvious by using clarity rather sharpening, but the color smearing is a problem that Adobe needs to rectify. They RC makes no changes.

I wish Eric Chan would at least comment as to whether or not they are working on the issue.

As another side note Chambers seems to prefer to shoot wide open and he did not list any image information with his example, the smearing is less noticeable at f8 than it is at f2.8, however the smearing is still evident and is an issue with Adobe software. I do wish they would take care of it, the converter that comes with it is a bit clunky in its implementation.
