The example I showed above was created using the default Lightroom Radius setting of 1, an Amount setting of 45, a Detail setting of 75 and Threshold of 10. But I have changed my mind and now think it’s the sharpening routine that creating much of the problem. I had originally put the effect down to the demosaic routine that converts the RAW file. I have therefore been looking at how to reduce the “Wiggly Worm” effect and I think I have hit on something. I can easily avoid the problem by switching to Iridient Developer or RAW Therapee but I like working in Lightroom. Click to topen the image at full resolution. To illustrate the problem, a look at the image below which has been magnified at 2:1 in Lightroom you may need to double click the image to open it at full resolution (I was also running my Mac at 2048 x 1152 when I took the screen shots so this will magnify the image further). This is a real shame, especially as I use Lightroom for much of my cataloguing and image management. You tend to find this in areas of fine detail when converting RAW files using Lightroom or Adobe Camera RAW. There is though one problem that has niggled me for a while and this is the “Wiggly Worm” pattern. In fact, the 10-24 and 16-55 lenses are nothing short of exceptional.
I like the handling of the camera and also the lens quality despite a couple of problems. Whilst I have only had a few outings, I’m very pleased with the results. I have now been shooting with the Fuji X-T2 for a couple of months. Fuji XT2 + 16-55 lens + 0.3 ND Grad filter.
