Default A SOOC JPEG vs RAW Comparison

All the various Fuji oriented sites have gone on, and on at how good
the JPEGs are straight out of the camera (SOOC) with the Fuji X-Series.
I have been shooting RAW+JPEG, but up until this weekend I have not
bothered to even look at the JPEGs. So when I did just that with my
Triathlon bikers shots from Saturday I was quite surprised to see just
how good the SOOC JPEGs were, and beyond a crop they did not need any
adjustment, and could be shared as shot. Needless to say the RAW files
needed all the help post could give them. So here is a side-by-side
comparison of an unadjusted RAW and SOOC JPEG.

That comparison made, I suspect that there are going to be quite a
number of my future shots where I will share some SOOC JPEGs as the
camera cooks them.
