Dan, like you, I'm not a Lightroom user. I tried DxO for a few years (with m4/3) and was mostly satisfied with it, but eventually switched to Capture 1 due to the fact that DxO did not handle Fuji X files at the time I switched to Fuji equipment. Recently,…

Lumix G9ll Hopes to Catch Olympus OM-1’s Accurate Autofocus
The Lumix G9ll Finally Announced Finally! Panasonic is getting serious about a quality autofocus camera in the world of Micro Four Thirds cameras.

The Wanderer–A Book Review
