As a subscriber I get all the latest updates to Lightroom and Photoshop when they are released. My curiosity was definitely piqued with the new feature “Enhanced Details”, which specifically promised image gains for the Fuji X-Trans sensors. I put it to the test.
I put this image to the Enhance Detail processor and after several minutes this is the result I got.
Not very impressive if you ask me. Not sure what is going on. As a software developer i came up with several reasons why the image was not “Enhanced”.
- The process may not work with the version of the OS I use. I am running on an older (2011) iMac 27″ with the High Sierra OS version with 32gig of ram
- The process might not work with the Fujifilm X-T2 (using the latest software).
- I eliminated the possibility of corrections added to the raw file might cause the issues by creating a virtual copy and clicking on the reset.
- It might be a software issue. (Notice this is last on the list.)
So this is the final image with corrections and cropping applied without any “Enhanced Details”
Either I am not ready for prime time or the Enhanced Detail feature is not.
