No C1 pretty much I'm out. That's me though and Phase will take years for a mirrorless. Watch Sony though they may just pull a rabbit out of the hat.

Sounds like me!... But the 645Z gave me a much bigger real boost in IQ than better color science could have squeezed out of a lesser system like a D810, so something had to go.
Lightroom is no slouch as it used to be in the early days either, but the day Phase does allow other cameras to be used, is the day I switch back, even if it means having two years of photography in a different software.

With the line between formats increasingly blurring, keeping the software arbitrarily gated is just arrogance. What's more important is how the systems are used; and a primarily tether-centric, leaf-shutter-enabled, removable-back camera is not competition for a camera designed to be used hand-held in available light. While I played with the idea of owning a Phase years past, I realized that none of the above features mattered to me.
I ran into this issue with my 645Z files once converting to C1. Sure they are not purely raw, but I brought them in as tiffs and all was OK since I go to PS6 with files anyway and they are tiffs when round tripping back into C1 anyway.
