But if there's no direct interoperability reason for you to stick with Lightroom, there's really a smorgasbord of choice available. Personally, I'd wager mostly historical inertia. What keeps Adobe the most popular choice is debatable. In no particular order, Capture One, ON1, Luminar, ACDSee, Darktable, Exposure, Silkypix, Zoner Photo, Rawtherapee, Photo Ninja, DxO Photo Labs, and probably a few I'm forgetting or haven't even heard of. But most of them are entirely capable of professional, quality results. Perhaps some of them aren't as fast or as polished as Lightroom, and certainly not as popular. There are so many competitors out there, it is hard to believe that not one of them would suit your needs. I hope someone comes out with better faster software than Adobe Lightroom with the same or even better workflow and I would be delighted to make the change. Sure, if you don't shoot over 1000 photos it should be fine, but over that forget it. But, the hardware is not the only problem, is the software that will be the bottleneck and will slow things up drastically as MP keep increasing. One of the comments I liked from the thread "Do You Want 40MP?" is that someone said that more megapixels is only going to get worse. The second problem is that for importing/exporting Lightroom is SUPER SLOW. Fujifilm is Fujifilm, not Sony, although I get the feeling that Sony RAW files are easier to manage now over Fujifilm, with Lightroom that is. Color tones, film simulations, sharpness and detail is simply not there and you have to spend a LOT more time messing around with this nonsense. ![]() When I was using the Fujifilm S5 Pro no problem, but then after several years after upgrading to newer cameras you can definitely see the problem. The only reason why I use LR is because of (it's workflow, that's it!) but as a Fujifilm shooter the files it produces are really poor. Who has the balls to come out with a much better RAW converter that truly competes with Adobe Lightroom Classic? We need one. ![]()
