I must say tyhat i only used LR for the Nik add-ons. I have shot quite a bit over the past few years but haven't "dev"'d much so I will follow the discussion with interest. Peter PS I used to find the suite from Fuji fine, but a bit clunky and that led me back to PSE etc., but it did handle Fuji RAW well.
