To expand on the comparison between RAW and JPEG with the Fuji film simulators, I put together a test that compares how the Fuji Film Simulators in Lightroom differ from those of the Iridient Developer.
Since we already can see that Iridient is a step ahead in terms of overall image quality from the Iridient vs. Lightroom Detail Comparison, it should also be interesting to see how the color profiles compare.
Manufacturers do seem to build the camera simulations in Lightroom and Iridient. They are built for the software to mimic the looks of the JPEG camera profiles you see in the camera as closely as possible. The developer at Iridient even continues to update and tune his. So, I used the latest, v3.3, at the time of this post.
The image was shot with the Fuji X100T in RAW ISO 250, f4.0 with a 1/60sec shutter.
