Fuji is famous for the quality of it's color on it's digital cameras; it's very natural-looking; even my little Fuji F31fd has excellent colour accuracy and rendition, per the two examples below (also shot available light, no flash):
The Fuji based dSLRS that were based on Kodak sensors and Nikon lens mounts back in '03-'06 were famous for their color, also.
Actually, these are JPEGs, still working on the best RAW conversion. While ACR will support RAW conversion for this camera, it's not optimal, and using SilkyPix is junk. I need to write to Adobe and pressure them into putting X10 RAW support into the next rev of Lightroom 4. The unusual EXR sensor makes RAW de-mosaicing more complex than with Bayer pattern sensors. Michael Reichman of Luminous Landscape had some recommendations for converting RAW with ACR that I need to look into and them figure out how to configure on the camera.
To be honest, the JPEG files are so good, that I generally find I have plenty of editing headroom for the results you see here. I have to say I am very, very pleased with the image quality, and the camera and it's controls are a joy to use. I'm very impressed so far; I like this camera much more than my Canon G9.
