Review: Over-hyped?? - Like everyone else with a keen interest in photography I was fascinated with the x100 as soon as it was announced. During the "Focus on Imaging" show at the NEC I, like thousands of others, handled the camera and was intrigued by its retro design and host of modern functions. However I couldn't decide if it was really for me, or where I would fit it within my existing camera gear (I mainly shoot with the Nikon D700 full frame) as I was already the owner of a Leica x1. Nonetheless I was seduced by all the media hype and bought one when they finally arrived in the UK. There are people more clever than me who have written about the technical aspects of this camera, and you can find numerous reviews via Google - I just wanted to express my overall impression of this camera. Bluntly I think it has been over-hyped and is over-rated. There, I said it. I don't deny that image quality is good, which is one of the stated key features of the x100, but in reality you can achieve similar quality with a camera that costs half the price and doesn't come with the emotional baggage. At this point I will repeat I own the Leica x1, and yes, you could argue that it is also over-priced. However image quality is absolutely superb! My Leica is also an easier camera to pick up and use, whereas the Fuji feels too laborious to set up and get running. No, I don't compare it with a Point-and-Shoot (I have the Canon Powershot S95 for this) but I've found I'm not using my Fuji on a regular basis as, well, I can't be bothered... Every review I've read about this camera takes great care to mention the hybrid viewfinder and what an innovation this is - I agree it's rather clever, but I've come to the conclusion it's no more than a gimmick whose fascination will soon wear thin. The OVF is excellent and I use nothing else. I realise the above will sound quite negative, but shouldn't detract from the fact this is a very good camera. I do wonder however if the novelty will soon wear off and we will see a major drop in the selling price - or alternatively the big boys (Canon, Nikon etc) will launch a similar type of product at half the Fuji price. From my side, I intend to persevere with this camera for a while, but in the back of my mind I suspect that it will be on eBay sooner rather than later! Update 13 September 2011 Since writing the above, I have sold this camera. With every camera I've ever owned, I either immediately get a "feel" for it, or I don't. This is of course an intangible quantity and not at all scientific - I just didn't get the "feel" with this camera. Hopefully someone else can love it the way I couldn't... It's undoubtedly a very good camera but I do think the novelty value will wear off very quickly and prices will subsequently drop considerably - I see it's currently around £100 cheaper already. Anyone wishing to buy this camera may well be advised to hold off as I shouldn't be too surprised to see it at around the £500-600 level by Christmas. Update 15 July 2012 OK, so sometimes you just have to eat your words... I bought this camera when it was first introduced last year and paid top dollar (around £1000) as soon as I could get my hands on it. As you may see from my initial review above I was disappointed with the camera and eventually sold it last September. However on reflection I began to realise that there was in fact nothing wrong with the camera - it was my own ineptitude and lack of real understanding of how a complex (relatively anyway) camera works. Over the past year I have tried to understand exactly how cameras do work and the effects of metering, focus points, WB, shutter speeds etc. Now I have a working but not extensive knowledge of these variables and then started to realise that I had in effect really only been using the X100 as a glorified "point and shoot" camera. I (wrongly) expected this camera to read my mind and work out the optimal settings and give me perfect images every time. Very wrong. Anyway. I recently decided to investigate this camera a little further and spoke to a few in-the-know people and a couple of professionals to gauge their opinion of this Fuji. Without exception they all sang its praises unreservedly, so I decided, with my new-found camera skills (sort of) that I would again buy this model. I ordered it from desertcart on a Friday afternoon and it was delivered Saturday morning - excellent service! I earlier predicted that the price would eventually drop and it's now priced at a reasonable £650. I spent most of Saturday afternoon familiarising myself with all the controls, although this was quite straightforward as I already own the also excellent Fujifilm X10 and the menu systems are almost identical. As I said at the start of this update I must eat my earlier words and completely retract my earlier criticism of this camera. It is truly outstanding, particularly in image quality and whereas before I found the setting up of the camera to be a little daunting, I now know exactly what I want it to do and I can make whatever shooting adjustments I may want. Read the various other reviews online and they will enlighten you on more technical aspects on this camera - I only wish to convey my own thoughts on just what a quality product the X100 is, although I would still say it's not for the faint-hearted moving up from a basic P&S model. You can of course just set it to Auto control, but this to me seems contrary to what you may be able to achieve with a little work playing with the controls. I also took the precaution of checking the Fuji website for any firmware updates and yesterday updated to version 1.3. I then spent most of Sunday out experimenting and running around looking for something to capture. I had no preconceived thoughts on landscape, architecture or portrait options, but I do have a liking for street photography and this camera feels tailor-made for this type of action. I have recently invested in some prime lenses for my DSLR and using these lenses has taught me to move closer to my subject rather then to only rely on using a zoom lens. This camera forces you to move yourself closer to the subject and think about framing the image. Wow, I almost feel like a real photographer! I also decided to buy the genuine Fuji leather case for the X100 - at £70+ it's not cheap, but I think it's a little incongruous to spend a large wedge of cash on a real quality item then package it with a less than premium case. That said I have ordered a non-Fuji lens hood and filter adapter (!) which probably punctures my last point... Walking around today then with my new toy in the quality leader case over my shoulder I felt like a 1950's tourist (if that makes sense) as I remember my Dad many years ago had a camera he carried around in the same way. Lastly I see Fuji has now announced a new wide angle option for the X100, although this isn't commercially available yet. I can't leave this review without making a couple of negative points; well not really negative. I would have liked to see an option to shoot 1:1 rather than the standard 4:3 or 16:9. Yesterday I dropped the lens cap on to a metal manhole cover which resulted in a chip in the paint of the cap. However neither this nor the lack of 1:1 will detract me from my expected fun using this camera. So, on the strength of all the above I now give this camera a fully deserved 5 stars.
Review: One for the traditionalist - As I am now (according to my offspring and as Alan Bennett would say) far gone in age and decripitude, I have been waiting for a small digital camera which I can manually control with a 'proper' aperture ring and shutter speed dial, without having to resort to loads of tiny buttons....... with the inevitable outcome of occasionally hitting the wrong one which throws my neuronal circuits (and the camera's) into a state of confusion......and always just as I am about to take that shot of a lifetime!!!! The X100 certainly scores highly with regard to easy manual control and, with its f2 lens, it produces stunning low light pictures which are every bit as good as my Nikon D90 .... and without the bulk! The ISO setting is also readily accessible by pressing the FN button on top of the camera, which is a bonus. The viewfinder is excellent and the camera controls (at least the ones I need) well positioned. The processor produces very good colour rendition. Again every bit as good as my Nikon. The reason why I don't give the full five star rating is that there are a few little niggles. The Menu/OK button at the centre of the command dial feels cheap and nasty and doesn't always react positively when it is depressed. Similarly the connector cover on the side of the camera is very flimsy. Otherwise this is an excellent 'solid' camera. Contrary to that I have read in reviews elsewhere, I have had no problem with the manual focus, including in Macro mode..... but I can generally judge distance by eye accurately so don't need to rely on the screen image resolution. The distance indicator which appears on the screen in manual mode seems to be accurately calibrated. In any event, the autofocus is excellent, even in very low light. The Fine/RAW image quality allows post exposure magnification and cropping, with better resolution than many 4x optical zoom lenses. The packaged RAW processing software seems fine and the Owner's Manual easy to read and sufficiently comprehensive in its scope. I am sure there are quite enough bells and whistles on board to satisfy the gadget mad younger generation but for those of us who still miss the feel of a 'proper' camera it equally fits the bill. Postscript: prior to splashing out on the X100, I bought a cheap 'previously loved', fixed focus Sigma DP1S to see how well I would manage without the Nikon's seductively lazy zoom. The Sigma camera has a large processor and some of the pictures, particularly skies and big open landscapes are astounding for the camera's size...... so if you want something small without the X100's price tag it would be worth a look.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Over-hyped??

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ One for the traditionalist
*by S***. on 3 January 2012*

As I am now (according to my offspring and as Alan Bennett would say) far gone in age and decripitude, I have been waiting for a small digital camera which I can manually control with a 'proper' aperture ring and shutter speed dial, without having to resort to loads of tiny buttons....... with the inevitable outcome of occasionally hitting the wrong one which throws my neuronal circuits (and the camera's) into a state of confusion......and always just as I am about to take that shot of a lifetime!!!! The X100 certainly scores highly with regard to easy manual control and, with its f2 lens, it produces stunning low light pictures which are every bit as good as my Nikon D90 .... and without the bulk!

The viewfinder is excellent and the camera controls (at least the ones I need) well positioned. The processor produces very good colour rendition. Again every bit as good as my Nikon. The reason why I don't give the full five star rating is that there are a few little niggles. The Menu/OK button at the centre of the command dial feels cheap and nasty and doesn't always react positively when it is depressed. Similarly the connector cover on the side of the camera is very flimsy. Otherwise this is an excellent 'solid' camera. Contrary to that I have read in reviews elsewhere, I have had no problem with the manual focus, including in Macro mode..... but I can generally judge distance by eye accurately so don't need to rely on the screen image resolution. The distance indicator which appears on the screen in manual mode seems to be accurately calibrated. In any event, the autofocus is excellent, even in very low light. The Fine/RAW image quality allows post exposure magnification and cropping, with better resolution than many 4x optical zoom lenses. The packaged RAW processing software seems fine and the Owner's Manual easy to read and sufficiently comprehensive in its scope. I am sure there are quite enough bells and whistles on board to satisfy the gadget mad younger generation but for those of us who still miss the feel of a 'proper' camera it equally fits the bill. Postscript: prior to splashing out on the X100, I bought a cheap 'previously loved', fixed focus Sigma DP1S to see how well I would manage without the Nikon's seductively lazy zoom. The Sigma camera has a large processor and some of the pictures, particularly skies and big open landscapes are astounding for the camera's size...... so if you want something small without the X100's price tag it would be worth a look.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great camera - once you get the hang of it.
*by S***T on 5 May 2012*

As an impatient and very amateur photographer I cannot always be bothered to "fool around" for too long before I take photos and like a camera easy to handle. I did read some of the reviews on Amazon which did warn that this was not an easy option for those perhaps less knowledgeable about cameras. I decided to take the plunge anyway and with the price being very affordable and at least £200 cheaper than of recent times, it was a "no brainer" option and being the camera of the year 2011, it was subsequently bought. I had considered the Leica X1 but the price was "lottery winner" territory. My first reaction when taking the camera out of the box was that it had weight and felt "good" to hold. I have had the camera a few weeks now and it has to be said that for a while I was wondering why I had decided to buy it as I was having trouble getting this to work the way I wanted and because I am the occasional photographer I had forgotten most things by the time I came to use it again. I bought the kindle version of the book which shows you how to do it all, but this is where being impatient comes into play and I have very little tolerance to guides; I am very much hands on. I need to press the buttons and turn the dials. Recognising my faults I cannot criticise the camera for these and once mastered (almost) the proof then must be in the "eating". Thus far I have not been disappointed and I have had the opportunity to use the camera in both blue sky and sunny options, grey rainy days and also within environments of available light (Cathedral churches)where the results have been very satisfactory indeed, especially the HD movie mode which has produced fantastic results. I am now getting used to it after about two months and look forward to an opportunity to be be more creative and use all the modes available. Getting used to the options and what buttons do what is the first test. I envy those more serious photographers who are able to pick up a camera and understand it all straight away. But dont be faint hearted if you're like me. The results are worth the wait and the fiddling around with knobs and buttons.
