Just tried the new Enhanaced Detail on one of my nef files. Completely underwhelmed and so much so that I am convinced I am missing the point. The preview does not help either as it blows the image up to the point where it is so blurred one cannot see any changes. It will not let me reduce the magnification to a sensible level either. What am I missing?

You're not missing anything at all....there will be some who will see an improvement, there will be many who won't. I'm in the latter camp, so for now I'm ignoring the function unless/until I come across an image that I think "may" benefit. I don't shoot Fuji and I don't print, so I'm not optimistic that ED is for me.

Still, it's early days, so who knows where this AI/ML stuff will lead us.

Yeah, no noticeable difference on my Pentax and Olympus raw files so far.

Does camera or subject matter? Seems the examples tend toward Fuji and cityscapes with artificial objects.

No, don't think of it as a Fuji thing. The effect is subtle-to-invisible on whatever type of raw files you process with it.

Try it on pictures with lots of fine details.

yeah, mine didn't come with the secret sauce either. Can you tell which of the attached in the screen shot is ED or not?

I see it kinda like the "experimental" features found in Lr CC's iOS apps. Might get better...maybe Adobe tracks the ED use (ouch, maybe unfortunate acronym) with those of us that share application data and uses that data to improve it).
