On this day in 2016, I photographed an SBB Pendolino descending the Gotthard Pass near Erstfeld using my first FujiFilm XT1 with 18-135mm Fujinon zoom.
At the time, I wasn’t 100 percent satisfied with the photographic quality of the image. Recently, I returned to my original Fuji RAF files from this trip and re-processed some of the images using DxO Pure Raw software. Significantly, this corrects for lens defects and other problems. The results are much better than my earlier un-corrected RAW files.
This was further adjusted using Adobe Lighttoom to make the most out highlight and shadow detail. I had an 8×10 print made from the improved file and it looks outstanding.
There’s lesson in this exercise. Improved image processing software can make a big difference with older digital files. Try it, you might be surprised!
