Raw Converter for the Fuji X-Trans Sensor

Just purchased a Fuji X-T1 and would like to know what users consider the best "raw" converter. I've read that Photoshop will convert these files, but that it is not great and that not all photo editing products will handle the X-Trans sensor's raw files.

I use Lightroom works fine and supports all film simulations that Fuji offers.

Have you tried the in camera converter? I was surprised how well it worked. Here is a list of converters I found:
Adobe Lightroom 5.4 and higher,
Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 and higher,Iridient Developer,
Photo Ninja.

I'm considering and comparing Sony 60000; Leica D Lux 109; and Fuji X 30. A couple of questions: will my Photoshop CS6 convert the raw Fuji files? Any thoughts on the image qaulity & low light performace of these 3 cameras compared? Lens interchageability is not required. I am looking for a "pocketable" walk around camera that will hold up in 11x14 & 16x20 prints for competitions. As always, thanks.

Fuji supplies a raw file converter. It seems to be faster to load data than the Adobe raw converter.

Here is a link which shows the cameras supported by Adobe Camera RAW, and, hence, Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5:

If I could type as well as I photograph, I'd be happier. I meant "Thanks".
