>> I have upgraded my Fuji X-E2 camera to the X-E3. I like the E cameras for 
>> travelling because they are smaller and lighter than the X-T2, and I am 
>> going to Poland tomorrow. As is my habit with new equipment, I tested the 
>> camera by taking some pictures around Alicante, and last night I started 
>> up Lightroom and imported the RAW files?except that I didn?t! I still use 
>> the last non-subscription version of Lightroom, version 6.7, and it 
>> cannot import the RAW files from this camera. As far as I can see, I have 
>> two main options:
>>
>> 1) Bite the bullet and sign up for one of Adobe?s monthly plans. This is 
>> something I hate and I will only do it in extremis.
>> 2) Find a separate RAW converter, use it to convert the RAW files to TIFF 
>> and then read the TIFF files into Lightroom.
>>
>> This is what I did last night?I downloaded some RAW converter from 
>> fuji.com <http://fuji.com/> and now I have the files in Lightroom. My 
>> question now is: what is the best stand-alone RAW converter for Fuji X 
>> RAW files? I know many use Capture One, but it is not cheap, and it is 
>> more of a full-fledged editor, designed to replace rather than supplement 
>> Lightroom. What I want is a simple, good converter that I can use as an 
>> intermediate step to create files that Lightroom can digest, but continue 
>> to do all the editing in Lightroom.
>>
>> What are my options?
