Pros: Exceptional JPEG files in absolute terms (not only in relation to other APS C): sharpness, bokeh, colors: 10 for all three.; Aesthetically beautiful; Quite compact: It is not the smallest ML on the market, but the fact that the fixed front lens really protruses very little makes it pocket-sized for a jacket; Price of the used really affordable: eye, eh, with 250-260 euros, practically the price of the Fuji Lens 23 F2 used for Fuji X, you can bring home a star!

Cons: Autofocus not instantaneous; Nothing else, really.

Opinion: Camera not only beautiful aesthetically, but who knows how to return the JPEG in the room absolutely exceptional as to delicacy, colors, overall yield. I have Nikon FF DSLRs and a micro 4/3 Col Zuiko 45 1.8: So I know what I'm talking about. I also possessed at the same time the XE1 with the 23 F2 (bought, the latter, to "sell Me" the X100): the rendition of the X100, especially in low light conditions, in my opinion give results altogether more pleasant than those provided by the XE1 ( So much so that I sold this here, and held the X100)! The files are beautiful: very sharp, contrased but never "pumped" in an unnatural way, always "adequate", correct, sober. It really seems to have snapped with the film. Even at full aperture, where I read the 23 F2 would be a tad soft according to some, I note instead an excellent overall yield, with good contrast, good sharpness and, hear hear, even a nice and pronounced bokeh: merit of the minimum focusing distance Very close that allows you to create beautiful effects "out of focus". A f 4.0 becomes an absolute razor. Sure, the AF is not lightning, but nothing dramatic. With a little practice you learn to "manage" it. Even those, my acquaintances, have gone to the versions S, T, F, under under regret having sold this "smooth": some have even bought it. The 12 mpx are more than adequate.

Pros: manageability, optical viewfinder, file quality

Cons: Precise but slow AF, some controls not correctly positioned

Opinion: It is the digital machine from which, at the time and despite its age, I could not ignore it. Pocket but still full-bodied, solid and discreet in size. The 23mm fixed makes it ideal for general use and/or in any case voted on street. I've also done a lot of portrait, especially set. The objective is excellent and being a fixed focal point, the whole electronic compartment is able to optimize the yield well. The EVF is clearly not at the current level but the excellent optical viewfinder makes it a must that will never age. I use it mainly in this mode because I hate the electronic sights and, despite a small limitation on the minimum distance of focus, you can do everything.

Pros: Small and discreet, excellent file quality, optical viewfinder, bayer sensor, "only" 12 megapixel, made at high sensitivity, built well, damn beautiful, I would look at it for hours;)

Cons: Uncomfortable buttons, especially the menu / ok, EVF button. Autofocus efficiency (not so much in speed with firmware 2.0 as in accuracy under certain circumstances)

Opinion: I had the X100S, then resold to finance part of an X-T1 kit. But the look and the practicality of this compact camera had remained in my heart. I decided recently to orient myself on the vintage for the X-T1 with manual optics and to go back to the first version regarding the X100, a bit for the price but also for the features. I'm not looking for big megapixels, for me the 16 of the former top of the range are too many. In this I found the right compromise, plus a traditional bayer sensor that alternating it with the X-trans allows me to have different image qualities, both excellent. I expected an autofocus according to many disastrous, but from the first use I was surprised in terms of speed. In delicate situations and with little light, however, reed the fire, and there is no way to make it acquire it. But you can not expect everything. rnI file I like, are engraved, less sharp at f / 2 but very good and very workable. rnThe optical viewfinder is the thing that convinced me to return in the footsteps of the X100 series because the viewfinder elronic of the big sister (clear and huge) in the long run I find it not very pleasant, especially with important light and indoors. Moreover, and I think it is inevitable, it causes a certain discomfort to the eye after a more or less intense use. rnAlleluia then to the OVF and its natural vision of the world! Moreover it is proving really fun to shoot only with the one holding off both the display and the display of images just taken then looking at the photos calmly at home.rnEVF is terrible, coming from a higher category you notice that it is not so small (that of the Canon 1100D lock style for example was really small), but it is really slow, resolutely discreet and full of lag. It's worth activating it briefly to check the exposure, nothing more. rnResa at high ISO excellent up to 2000, above there is a bit of noise but if you put on the web or you make small prints the problem does not exist. rnThe strong point of this compact is the charm, there isit's nothing to do. Those who love the rangefinder cameras (or similar rangefinder in this case) can only confirm. This in combination with a great photographic quality makes it unique and makes sure that wherever you go a place in the bag available there is always. If you find one at the right price, take advantage of it and you will have fun.

Pros: Style, charm, portability, image quality and sensor (I prefer it to the latest ones), hold on the iso, OPTIMIZE .. With this camera learn to photograph.

Cons: Battery life, slow AF (for me it is not a fault because it is not an avifauna machine)

Opinion: This is the camera that everyone should at least have or try in their own lives! I chose the older model after hearing the opinions of the film type sensor quality! Buy used at 300 euros is a car that has a huge price ratio (if used, the new x100f types that exceed one thousand maybe have an exaggerated cost). The x 100 makes you go back in time, with the style of a little retro and the way you conceive photography. I use it for street only with the optical rangefinder optical viewfinder (which I can not afford but remains a dream) but the machine also has the electronic one. The 35 equivalent fixed lens is a must for the genre and the diaphragm f2 does not even disguise any set portrait. It moves you, like any fixed optics, from the optical viewfinder, and beyond what is happening to the outside, a real window on the world. I own it for 6 months and it is always with me, I have personalized it and it has become my play. The '3%Bho preferred a hypothetical xpro + optic because I already have a canon kit and because it is a machine made and finished (the lens does not change) and I did not want to get into other photographic monkeys; What I did not manage to respect because I'm falling in love more and more with the world fuji !! When you try it you can not help it ... it's a car that I would put to use it to my children (if I ever got it) and let him learn the true picture with her.

Pros: manual controls (for those who like them) that they return a true experience rangefinder, valuable sensor up to ISO 3200, resolving optics, light weight, very good photo quality for the end to be a compact.

Cons: Lack the basic functions to the programmable keys. Do you want to switch off the auto ISO? You have to tweak the menu. Speeds up to 1/1000 to f2, so in full sun must wear a nd integrated filter. Error correction parallax if enabled in the optical viewfinder is annoying. Other crap and venial peccadilloes type macchiavelici menu. Indecent him af-s switches, c-af, af-m.

Opinion: taken as a joke, I was looking for a compact in "replacement" of the heavy d700 during walks with the baby, but I was looking for something a little, apes' beloved M6. force the game to take a X100, was love at first s-view. Leaving out the "defects" listed above, is a fabulous machine to use. Returns the feeling of an analog machine. It should be set for good once and then never touch it again we saw the difficulty navigating the menus (cyclical). I made several moving pictures and for me the AF performance enough and advance. rnrnInsomma, I bitterly regretted not having bought it before!

Pros: User experience unmatched, built sensor that when used under the 3200 returns iso image really rich dynamic range and color, ergonomics, really goes unnoticed, built-in ND

Cons: AF (see review), battery, lack of physical controls (see review), little logic of some options, slowness operational approach initially unsettling, MAF minimum (in a non-macro)

Opinion: Then, I start by saying that I love this camera and with hindsight I would have bought one of the models x100 years ago. Why this deep love is not, however, easy to explain, in the sense that the machine sucks in many aspects, but I really can not scollarmene, and at the end I always find a good excuse to not leave it at home, which with my 3 SLR had never successa.rnNon are a lover of vintage style, but I must say that is really beautiful, and hold it looks really solid and leaves a very good impression, then you turn it on and start the pains, it "appreciates" the slow, cumbersome menu, which really does not make any sense, then we have to continue to regret buying the lack of soft keys (2 with the new FW), which is a trauma for people like me is to end SLR medium -high, where the menu looked at him once a year. To this it is added that the setting more logical (for me) is to give theFn key function ISO ... not that among the options there is no one to put Auto-iso ... and you have to go Spippola the menu ... Not to mention the mode selector to f, pecking Af-s is like hitting the Lotto ... rnAF, cross all (about) the ML ... I must say that updating it improves, but is still far from good performance ... I just, for example, a photograph because I thought enough and slow, so I have time to focus and wait ... but someone will be tight (I must say that I've brought to boxing and has not had too many problems to follow athletes ... clear that if I deliver a job at the end of the day I would use another) rnDopo all why should you buy it? I have no doubt in saying that everyone should at least try it, it ensures a user experience far cry from SLR systems, may or may not like, what is certain is that it is changing the way I shoot, for better or worse not Sure, but I likeAnd much basta.rnrnCONCLUSIONE: we are in 2015, is a machine that is on the market from 2011, and four years in this field are 10 geological time ... I find it amazing that manages to do what it does, which is also considered € 350 used ...

Pros: Great picture quality even compared to the SLR viewfinder excellent and very useful in its 2 varianti.Nel rest I agree with the previous opinion. Sensor always clean, solid metal and the whole feeling is to have a jewel in your hand.

Cons: The flaws in this machine are many, but interpretable. It may be a defect AF slow on this machine? AF inaccurate to minimum distances. There are many improvements that can have this camera, the most important is the menu strange and cumbersome, an objective not replaceable.

Opinion: And 'an ideal machine to have excellent high quality photographs in situations where large reflex are not welcomed. The maniacal attention to aesthetic details, including the standard equipment of a remote control cable that seems blown out of the time machine, it has diverted the attention of designers Fuji from the aspects related to the comfort and ease of use that fact reach standard quite high. All manual controls are well laid out in the camera body and the lens, and this allows you to work easily even in full manual mode. rn The machine is not located in any segment, but if it is an invention, it should be understood and used in situations that others can not have: versatility and quality. Sensor and files that come close to the reality of the colors in surprising ways. Great balance of color, but also exposure indoors in low light. 35mm lens, bright and sharp. Excellent for road, but also for paesaggi.rn It 's the right camera to freak you against fotografia.rnAdessoshould be used at a good price, magnesium body.

Pros: The sensor = high image quality produced, compactness, high quality optics, good image quality even up to 1600ISO, great versatility of hybrid optical viewfinder / electronic manual focus with display of hyperfocal and PDC, many functions "build-in" interesting such as the opportunity to do panoramas with Multi-Exposure composione automatically, HD video, discrete (if properly set to shoot without making a sound).

Cons: AF slow and sometimes inaccurate in low light or low contrast, manual focus is not easy, fixed focal length lens (is not a machine for hunting photo), poor battery life, slow writing of SD.

Opinion: The X100 is a great camera for every day and for every occasion, perfect for street, landscape, architecture, portrait also, it is the machine always carry around in any journey. Surprised by the quality of existing products as jpg file, in raw format files are obtained lavorabilissimi in PP and are pulled out images that are pale prosumer DSLRs and do not regret even some pros. The sound is good up to ISO 800 is acceptable up to ISO 1600. The firmware is completely updated to version 1.30. For intensive use is better to have a spare battery (little cluttered). The viewfinder hybrid optical / electronic allows you to work in any condition luce.rnL 'only limit is certainly not the AF is very fast and often impasse according to the conditions of light and especially contrast, but the X100 is not machine suitable for a photography "fast", is a machine that forces you to think also because the fixed focal length (35mm equivalent) forces you to study thenquadrature and move. In contrast, the optical quality is excellent, bright and nitida.rnHo found particularly effective in the photograph X100 IR where the optical viewfinder allows you to work "normally" and conversion to BN built from the results of all the X100 is rilievo.rnrnInsomma its a great machine for those who want to travel light and be able to make quality photos taking with him 400 grams of camera. rnrnNon last look that is absolutely intriguing for those like me who started to photograph 30 years ago with the pellicola.rn
