At this point I would say that it's absolutely pointless and irresponsible to use software other than Silkypix for conversion of RAW files produced by those cameras, if the user has any expectations of quality and consistency. If someone likes the results he gets with Lightroom, he can use it as much as he wants (and I am not saying that Lightroom won't produce usable results when photos don't trip its failure modes), but it would be stupid to complain about them if he doesn't, as Lightroom conversion procedure is known to break in many perfectly ordinary conditions. If Silkypix also has the problem, then there is a clear cause for complaints, as that's what Fujifilm recommended and supported. There would be half as many threads in this forum if people acknowledged this.
Nevertheless, I can recommend using DCRaw with -w option to evaluate camera's "opinion" on colors -- just don't rely on its output as the actual source for postprocessing, as they are known to be just as flawed as Lightroom.
'pointless and irresponsible'? - That's pure BS
The hysteria around RAW image processing is getting blown out of all proportion, and bears no resemblance to the reality of actually using the camera and tools available from various software houses.
