There is no way in which P1 is "shutting out" Adobe.I have, and for Hassey files at least the results are excellent. Colour is slightly different, as is moire suppression, but it's in the ballpark. I guess, like Leica, this owes to Blad working with Adobe, not shutting them out as I understand P1 does.
Every modern Phase One back is supported by Adobe LightRoom and LR does as good of a job with a Phase One file as it does with most any other camera it supports. Adobe also supports a wide variety of lenses for automatic (or manual) lens correction from the Phase One ecosystem.
Many people notice there is an improvement when you work with a Phase One raw file in Phase One's software Capture One vs in LightRoom. This is not because LR does a poor job (in absolute terms, or in comparison to other types of raw files), but because C1 does such a good job with them.
In fact, many users observe that their Nikon/Canon/Fuji/Sony raw files are better handled in C1 than in LR. Obviously Phase One is not "shutting out" Adobe from providing better raw processing of those brands either.
