>> Adobe doesn't like fuji x-files much.
Yes, Adobe's Raw conversion used to be awful, but is now just OK. C1 is
better as far as I can tell. In cam conversion is very good.
CFA's have trade offs by nature. Xtrans designed so the "green" raw channel has
more coverage but less positional symmetry than in a Bayer sensor and as a
direct result there is less high-frequency luminance "miscalculations" in the
interpolation, giving lower noise in raw conversion. The larger B to B and R to
R distances necessitate a large chroma smoothing radius resulting in
"watercolor effects or artifacts--balance seems different with different
converters. Accuraw allows one to adjust the balance though have never used it.

I have read it may be possible to use a POCS algorithm to minimize the
complications of the uneven channel coverage but have not seen any evidence
that anyone is working on it.
