>>4381847TBF Sony jpg colors are actually really good if you're not poor. These days they're up there with canon and fuji, definitely ahead of nikon's "ken rockwell's take on an iphone" colors WAY better than panasonic.
They have the same problems in jpeg as every camera: sharpening and noise/moire reduction are crap and there is no such thing as good auto white balance, so your friends will use (you) as the example for cameras not being much better than phones, because the automatic shit they put on cameras so they can say they shoot jpeg is actual fucking trash. yes, even with fuji. good colors, but fine detail is ass and no amount of cope about standing 4 feet from an 8x10 or how zooming in is evil will actually stop normal people from zooming in or looking at prints closely, and asking "is this supposed to be better than my so called AI phone smears?". You whine about "pixel peeping", they say "i can look at a picture however i want, sorry your camera sucks". Imagine not being a failed painter so blurry pics could be intentional instead of gear cope.
HDR modes on cameras are also total shit.
Toggling jpeg settings on screen is a time waster.
Just open raws in capture one, set up nice nr/sharpening defaults and -5 saturation as standard, fix AWB overcorrecting for max whiteness all the time so light can have actual color to it (copy and paste fix), do your highlight protection and DR things, and export, and only then do cameras beat phones, regardless of brand.
The standard in photography, including for using fuji, is shooting raw. jpeg engines, like auto and scene modes, are half baked crap from 2010 (just like phone integration is literal shit). And knowing how many luddites are in japan, they're probably there for the domestic market that's still stuck in 2010. The sooner you realize the better.
