[Leica] And now a Lightroom question

[Frank Filippone]

Not quite correct...

LR4 will read XE-1 raw files just fine.....  No problems on my setup....

LR is a really great tool for cataloging...   It does not have all the
editing bells and whistles of PS....

Nathan,

Unfortunately that is why I bought LR5; for my X-Pro1...4.x doesn't read
Fuji files and nor do earlier versions.

Originally PSE didn't either but I have PSE12 which *can* handle them. MOst
of the time I just use PSE.

Personally I am not much enamoured of LR. I had thought that it would give
me lots of advantages. I don't really see them, it's not a usage model that
I am comfortable with. But perhaps I have missed the point.

Fuji normally offers an equivalent, though I can't recall what it is called.
Did you get a copy of that?

their converter and will then import those.
