IRIDIENT 3.0.5

Iridient Developer 3.0.5 is now available:
http://iridientdigital.com/products/iridientdeveloper_download.html

Improves RAW black level handling, in some situations quite noticeably, for the X100 and perhaps some other non X-Trans models as well. Various other bug fixes, improvements and new camera support. This release also adds an editing extension for Apple Photos on Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) that provides external edit type functionality for opening images from the Photos library into Iridient Developer.

The Million Dollar Brian

And since we are talking of Iridient, here is another fun (and fake) rumor I’ve received via email.

“Adobe is considering abandoning their own RAW developer and contract Iridient to supply software. We have 50 people working on this stuff and they can’t keep up with a one man show! We just have the wrong staff, exclaims senior manager! We can pay him $5mill a year and still come out ahead!”

I contacted Brian from Iridient, since I wanted to share a good laugh him… and he obviously confirmed that it’s a fake since “their recruiter told me they could only afford $4 million” :-)

cheers

I normally do not post the fake rumors I get on FujiRumors. But allow me to share one with you today, because I’d like to express my deepest gratitude to all those sources, Anonymous, New or Trusted, who shared correct information with FujiRumors in the past and helped me to find the right path in the thick fake-rumor jungle aimed to discredit this blog. Thanks… you’re my Virgil!

And now, my fellow X-shooter, I’m sad to tell you that it’s over! After years of galactic investments and terrific efforts to build up the best and most complete APS-C line on the market, this rumor written in stone unveils that… “Fuji is considering Sony’s interest in acquiring its mirrorless camera and lens business.”

Damn… our beloved retro-vintage manual control cameras will become PlayStations ;)

And btw,  thanks also to all those FR-readers, who didn’t share rumors, but links to news, curiosities, deals, reviews & what not… FujiRumors is more than “just” rumors and I appreciate any help I get.

cheers
