John W reacted to MirrorMirror in Fuji film simulations in Lightroom 6
LR only shows a small subset of the available EXIF data. If you want to see all, including the film sim, then use EXIFTOOL.
If you want to see all data in LR then use the plugin, available here

The plug in uses the EXIFTOOL to view in within the LR interface.
Second question - you can use the Fuji sims within LR on the RAW versions of the file. This is without plugin, it's within the LR Develop module. Only available to RAW files, not JPGs, which already have the sim "baked" in. With the RAW files LR allows you to change the sim in post processing.
Personally I've used the plugin I mentioned, and it works. However I just don't care anymore, I just take pics in provia and have done with it. There's really not much difference in any of them and provia works for me.

John W got a reaction from meloaku in Fuji lens prices
All of the prices for bodies and lenses are identical in the U.S. as well. Local shops, Amazon, B&H, Adorama -- every price is exactly the same. I believe the manufacturer is allowed to contractually oblige retailers to agree to a "Minimum Advertised Price" (MAP) in the U.S., but can't actually prevent a shop from selling to you at below that if you were to find one willing to negotiate.
Some retailers get around this by offering freebies included with the product (i.e. a lens filter, or an inexpensive tripod with a camera) -- this doesn't violate the MAP agreement but in essence lowers the profit margin on the camera for the retailer in order to move more units.
