X-series: RAW file processing in Lightroom

Keep in mind that the camera does include SilkyPix software for free which does a great job, better than Adobe. However, people have commented that Adobe (LR and CS6 same thing) does a superior job retrieving blown highlights. The downside to Silkypix is that the interface is confusing at first and it doesn't fit into the workflow for people processing many images in one sitting.

Botton line, fuji raw is not bad, there are good options and more and better options coming soon. Jpegs are wonderful. So wonderful that in the past month I personally have not shot raw with my new fuji and my post work has never been so little. The other reason is I read so many post of people fussing with various raw convertors using the jpeg as the gold standard. RAW files can be processed in various ways to jpeg in camera, after the shot is taken, which is yet another option, especially since certain film simulations have different dynamic range and a different color punch. I shoot bracketing film simulation modes so 1 click gets me 3 variations to use or delete.
