[Leica] And now a Lightroom question

[Nathan Wajsman]

Peter—actually, LR 4 does read Fuji X-Pro 1 files, but not XT1. At least my incarnation of LR 4 does.
I have been a satisfied user of LR since version 1 and I have no intention of switching to anything else. With the exception of cleaning dust marks on scanned film, for which I keen an old copy of Photoshop CS3, LR does everything I ever need to do with an image.

And Geoff: no, you have not concvinced me of the merits of the subscription model. I coughed up my 72 Euro for an old-fashioned upgrade to LR5 this afternoon.

Cheers,
Nathan
