Depends on what you expected from Olympus Master, I'm very happy with it, I 
use it for RAW conversion and some basic adjustment like WB and exposure, 
all other jobs go to photo editing software if needed.

I have not much experience on LightRoom, I have C1 V4, it has much better 
workflow and more powerful than Olympus Master, the price is cheaper than 
LightRoom. Someone on the market for RAW converter may have a look. Silkpix 
is also a good one, I have the free version for my Pana LX-1.

BTW, there are always slight different in color with different RAW software, 
it may not be important to you but I prefer Olympus RAW.
