Silkypix just crashes while opening X100VI raw file, slow or not :)

Donald, I don't EVER pixel peep that far. I have no idea what you are trying to prove. Both cameras are supposed to be identical. And I've never had a 26mp camera.

but the histograms are not identical so how can you have the same incamera processing defaults.
-
One of the cameras is faulty? A cloud came over between picture one and two? I don't know and to be honest, I don't care now. The LE one is going back (Fuji have accepted that) and I will be left with one that works great for me.

thats good, thats all that matters, i bought the most expencive microscope objective ive owned a few weeks ago thinking it would out perform my 40yo objectives. wel lthat was a big mistake and i accepted the cost as a learning curve, the well regarded nikon 10x was like new condition and it was that bad i put it in the bin, i couldnt sell it to another person knowing it was that bad.

I just updated FastRawViewer to 2.0.8 on my other computer and it opened both files, and it does look like the LE has ("had", as you've already made your decision) a bit more aberration in the outer regions of the frame.
-
It was clear that something was up with the LE . Maybe it was sample variation, or damage in transit, or again maybe a newer lens formulation to save on manufacturing costs, yes it happens, updates are not always advantageous to the buyer.
From experience, it is no good keeping a piece of kit that you have no confidence in.
-
Thank you both. Yes, it has gone back and my money returned.
I am happy with my existing VI and have turned off the GAS (for now).

I was going to say...It never goes away, just quelled for awhile. I am wondering if the new firmware would have fixed the issues. What was the difference between the regular vi and the LE?
-
If it's supposed to be the same exact lens, then I suspect that the lens in the LE was a lemon, and was not assembled correctly.
Firmware shouldn't affect the resolution of the raw capture at all. I don't see Iliah here recently, but his FastRawViewer, I assume, would demosaic the two cameras with exactly the same interpolation, and FRV does show more aberration, especially towards the edges and corners. -
Nothing apart from some writing on the case and a few extras like a different strap.

Ok, so by sending it back you don't miss out on photographic features, just badly needed bling. Ha ha. I totally get it. I would want the limited edition version too.
