XnView Software

When I convert a Fuji RAF (RAW) file to TIFF, the TIFF file is frequently sufferes a levels conversion. Either it is darker or lighter than the TIFF image should be.

I know this because I have converted Fuji RAF files with s7raw (a Fuji RAF converter program) and compared the results with NConvert'ed images.

They do not look the same.

Is this problem being addressed? I really want to use XnView exclusively from start to finish but the poor RAF->TIFF conversion makes that impossible.

I can supply test images in Fuji RAF format.

Yes please. Do you have tried to change gamm/brightness for RAW?

The settings for reading CameraRaw are:

High Resolution: Yes
Automatic White Balance: No
Use Camera White Balance: Yes
Gamma: 1.000
Brightness: 0.200
Red Scaling: 1.000
Blue Scaling: 1.000

These settings are ok but they appear to be inconsistently applied. Each RAF file seems to get it's own Levels adjustment.

Compare them and you will see that the conversion done by XnView is not right.

Ok, you had sent me some emails before
Could you send me your email, i add an option to the RAW converter...
