new X10 firmware is out.
Firmware for X10 | Fujifilm Global
The firmware update Ver.1.03 incorporates the following issues:
1.New function for "RAW" button can be applied by customer's preference
By holding down RAW button for approx. 2 second or more, RAW button can be applied into new function similar to "Fn" button setting.
2.Each value set on ISO sensitivity and Dynamic range can be maintained even if aperture setting mode (P / A / S / M) is changed.
3.Face detection function is upgraded to keep tracking face by means of face-tracking AF function. As this function is activated even in movie recording mode, AF on detected face in the movie becomes more effective.
4.Blooming (White disk) phenomena, which can be observed in EXR AUTO mode, is reduced.
5.Compatibility on Mac OS 10.7
When the camera is connected to Mac PC on Mac OS 10.7, the camera is effectively recognized. Additionally, compatibility on RAW FILE CONVERTER EX with Mac OS 10.7 has been confirmed.
6.AF confirmation sound was controlled on "SHUTTER VOLUME" in the SET-UP menu. By this update, this sound is controlled on "OPERATION VOL." in the SET-UP menu, just similar to another functions.
7.The image area with high brightness might be recorded as "black-out" area, just in case of dedicated shooting condition, This unpleasant phenomenon is improved.
8.When the flash is used under macro shooting condition, light-reflected area was shown in greenish. This unpleasant phenomenon is improved.

Tungsten WB means white balanced to yellow bulb or in other words incandescent lighting.

the key word is "reasonable acceptable quality" i.e. can see what you shoot at 1.5 metre away and hence very subjective. In that case, can go all the way to A0. I can use 10MP and post process it well to hit A0. That's not all, the printer system at the printers should extrapolate properly to avoid pixelation. Most large formats should be fine.
And they print at 240dpi but passing them the file at 300dpi should be fine.

mac user but still on snow leopard.
tas a mighty good question. i'm still trying to find out! kekekeke
It is good that Fuji was listening and made the RAW button customizable! Just updated the firmware to the latest version.
BTW, if any of you are interested in seeing what the X10 is capable of in terms of Documentary & Street Photography, I have written a few posts for the Invisible Photographer Asia website. The links are as follows:-

Street Photography in Japan with the Fuji X10 - Part 2
personally like the part 2, the ZOO project you working on, interesting direction and concept.
btw a few qns, 1)the reasons why you off ur IS, but I do seen some articles abt turning off the IS does help in IQ? and 2)I suppose converting the orginal images from colors to B/W is the most common practice we use if we are doin b/w photography, just curious why you prefer to capture ur subjects in cam B/W, apart from what you mention to be able to see the B/W effect of ur shots?

basically, use a blank formatted card, download the .dat file and copy into card.
switch on cam while holding 'disp/back' button.
press 'ok', select 'yes', 'ok' and then wait.
all done in around 5mins.

1) Since i am shooting in Shutter Priority mode and I always know my shutter speed is going to be high enough to freeze movement or prevent hand shake there is no point turning on IS since having it on might sometimes cause it to compensate when there is no need to compensate. I am guessing this cos when i first started using the cam IS was on and I was wondering how come certain shots the shutter speed should have been high enough but the picture turned out a bit blur. Since i turned it off I have not encountered any such occurrences.
2) For me, without the color, I am just left with the shapes, lighting, etc. Just feel more comfortable shooting in this mode. The files are RAW anyway so later on I still need to convert to B&W during post processing. It just helps me to visualize the final image during the time of shooting. No real big reason, just a personal preference.
