There's a lot to like about the Fujifilm FinePix X100
Superb quality quality
Exceptional image quality
Versatile yet easy to use
The editors didn't like
A few operational issues
Such as loose menu pad dial and small menu button
Quality design comes at a hefty price
The expense
Backplate buttons could be larger and the scroll wheel is unnecessarily fiddly
No zoom
Common image quality issues including purple fringing and lens flare
Optical viewfinder could be more accurate
Slow to start up and save pictures to the memory card
Macro focusing required for subjects less than 80 cm away
No stabilisation
More custom controls would be nice
Macro not as efficient
Still pricey
Not the fastest AF
Some macro focus issues
Expensive
Not for the mass market
Sluggish performance
Especially for such a high-priced camera
And a frustrating navigation control make shooting with the camera a lot less fluid than it should be
Great image quality, unique design, great build quality, ingenious viewfinder
Not the fastest AF, some macro focus issues, expensive, not for the mass market
The Fujifilm FinePix X100 is a niche blend of a fixed 23mm (35mm) F/2.0 lens and large APS-C sensor. Its build quality is sublime and the pictures it can take are astounding. It’s a serious slice of retro chic in a modern age, but most certainly isn’t ...

It's clear that Fujifilm has put a tremendous amount of thought into the Fuji X100 and in many ways it's exactly what many people want: a small-form, large-sensor camera, with a fast optic and all encased in a beautiful and solidly-built body. Whereas ...
Like most photographers who saw the early prototypes of the X100, I couldn’t wait to use it and even considered buying one. Having now spent some time with the camera, it certainly has its charm and has more than proved itself on its image quality. How...

Amazingly wellbuilt, fullmanual controls, fast, gets out of the way, looks great… Everything else
Dodgy RAW conversion support from thirdparties, goes crazy when you snap a picture with the lens cap on, no Leica logo on the front (kidding!)
The Fujifilm X100S Costs $1,200 (I got it for way less by trading in a bunch of old Nikon lenses and an SB900 flash), and is worth every penny. It's the first digital cameras I have used that comes close to being as good as my old Leica M6. No, it's not a...
The X100 is a truly pioneering camera that has brought retro styling back to market in a big way. Though retro styling aside the real beauty of the X100 is that it offers the market a relatively inexpensive rangefinder camera that delivers incredible ...
Beautiful and sturdy build, Excellent hybrid viewfinder, High image quality from sensor and lens,
Very poor multiselector, Confused interface and sluggish performance, Expensive
After patiently waiting so long to get to finally try the Fujifilm X100, we find ourselves walking away just a bit confused. To be clear for the most part, the X100 is a wonderful camera that truly takes lovely photos. There’s no question that short of...
Abstract: Causing more stir than it would seem to deserve, the Fujifilm Finepix X100 may not by itself cause waves in the retail market, but many of its features will surely be taken up by other makers. They just make an awful lot of sense!Snatching the X100 fr...
