>>4166899Those are RAW files. Fuji doesn't bake NR into raw except for long exposures maybe (hot pixels - every mirrorless does it).
Xtrans is a "flawed" design that makes it technically impossible to fully approximate finer details when demosaicing. This is intentional. Details can not align with the CFA therefore it can not produce moire. You get bloire instead of moire, like an AA filter fucked the CFA. It doesn't really matter on APSC because you'd need insanely sharp lenses to get as much fine detail as you get out of FF and MF cameras, but fuji could really just use bayer and an LPF to do the same thing. But if they did that, they wouldn't be able to make a bullshit marketing claim like "the more random* pattern is like film grain"
*it's not random at all, and it's not like film at all
Consider that if xtrans were actually good, it would be on the GFX cameras that spare no expense (the sensor is even mounted on an anti-shock mechanism). It's most likely cheaper than using an AA filter so it's an affordable way to mass produce cameras that are well suited to hobby photography and photography that involves a lot of fabrics.
