Because of this the RAW files require a different kind of processing algorithm. The major software developers were slow to catch on so Fuji supplied their own software in the box with the cameras.
Fuji RAW File Converter (FRFC) is based on the Silkypix RAW developer.
FRFC is not the most intuitive App I've ever used, in fact its GUI is pretty poor compared to Lr, and the manual reads like a Google translate from the original Japanese, but the results do appear to retain a little more fine detail than those processed in Lr. Its difficult to compare directly as there are no common controls so it might be possible to achieve the same results in either App if you knew the equivalent setting in each.
It looks as if a workflow for Trans X RAW files might be to convert to 16bit TIFF in FRFC then use Lr as normal.
