Jpegs straight out of Fuji X-E1 and QC?
Borniet replied to george's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
Many thanks, I have been playing around with the settings and keep going back to Velvia, I like it. I will check out the catalogue settings in Lightroom. I must also say, I am very impressed with the sharpness, almost like its been sharpened I always used the Fuji Velvia rolls when I was still shooting film (except for portraiture), and these X-Sensor bodies are the first that give me the same wow as when I was using the original film. Love it! The sharpness of the Fuji X is indeed incredible too, I was really baffled when I first saw it (and still am regularly). -

Borniet replied to george's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical talk
We capture in both raw and jpeg (we used to do alot of weddings, and it's a leftover from there...), however, we almost always use the jpegs. Most of the time we use the Velvia setting btw. About Lightroom, there is a setting to import to the jpegs too, but it takes a while to find it, we've been struggling with it too. I think it was in the catalogue settings, but I'm not sure, and I don't have a LR here to check... -

I've uploaded some jpeg images straight from our X-E1, and all are approved. I'm having more troubles getting my Canon 5D (mk I and II) approved... These Fujifilm X-sensor machines are really great! And their lenses are too :-) -
Great shot!!!! And congrats on the sale ;-)

I know the feeling... My last upload was from last year. Still waiting for my upload from 3/3 to pass (or fail....). -
"Is stock shooting + an income still attainable? Yes, it is but what folks don't appreciate is that you have to keep going all the time." Just a small note here... I live in Belgium, just like you Philippe. Do note that (which you without ANY doubt know all too well) we are in one of the most expensive countries in the world, and are amongst the most heavily taxed people in the world (as you are fully independent, just like I am). If you compare what we need to earn from stock to make a living, to what someone in, say, the Philippines needs to earn to make a living, that's quite a differen

Congrats! Must feel good to see that kind of sale pop up in your stats! -
Same here, happy 5DMkII and 1D users, but wanted something smaller, something to carry around all day on a regular day, and not feel as if you were hit by a train the day after. We went for the Fujifilm X-E1 with 18-55 lens (for now, more is coming ;-) ), and we were baffled by the result! This little thing can EASILY cope with the 5DII on IQ!
