This camera not only feels right to anyone brought up on classic 35mm film cameras it also delivers the goods in excellent images with good colour
Sharpness and dynamic range. The lens is outstanding and the viewfinder simply brilliant.
Thanks to great photo quality
A clever hybrid viewfinder
And a cool
Retro design
There's a lot to like about the Fujifilm FinePix X100

The only thing that may hold the X100 back in the market place is the noninterchangeable lens. 23mm on an APSC sensor is moderate wideangle and won't be to everyone's liking
Even if it is optically dazzling
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
Abstract: All we really knew about Fujifilm's FinePix X100 was that its looks (and pricetag) could kill, but Photography Blog has discovered that the gorgeous magnesium machine takes fantastic photographs too. You won't actually be able to see any of them at th...
The Fujifilm Finepix X100 is one of the most surprising, appealing and well-realised cameras of recent times, offering a compelling mix of intuitive handling, impeccable image quality, and a truly innovative viewfinder. That's not to say that you shou...
Abstract: Otherwise it's hard not to be excited about the X100. For serious photographers who value high image quality in combination with eye-level non-reflex viewing, this is a camera to cherish. The excellent build quality also helps to justify the relatively high price of the X100. I doubt that anyone with the wherewithal to purchase this camera and the interest in what it has to offer, will ever regret its purchase.
Abstract: There clearly are some frustrating aspects to the X100. But, it would be dead wrong to suppose that the negatives outweigh the positives. Far from it. The image quality from this camera is nothing short of exceptional. Not just for a compact camera, but for any type of camera. And the innovative OVF / EVF is a real pleasure to use most of the time. The camera's build quality is first-rate, and one feels that this is a picture..

The Fuji Finepix X100 is a uniquely intriguing camera. Its inconspicuous analog-camera look is alluring for its quantity of buttons and dials, promising efficiency while shooting. A one-of-a-kind hybrid viewfinder lets it have an EVF and an optical-tunnel...
Abstract: Fujifilm's FinePix X100 offers unrivalled image quality for a compact camera, thanks to its APS-C format CMOS sensor and Fujinon 23mm f/2.0 lens. The Hybrid Viewfinder uniquely combines the 'bright frame' window-type optical viewfinder found in high-e...
Okay, I've run out of poison for my pen. So I hate the X100, right? Wrong. This is a real tricky traverse I'm going to attempt here, I hope I don't fall. First, this is an expensive camera for what it does (US$1199). At that price we can get a D7000, s...
Abstract: Fujifilm FinePix X100 First Look January 2011 | Andy Westlake In amongst all the cameras announced at Photokina 2010 - including enthusiast SLRs such as the Nikon D7000, Canon EOS 60D, Pentax K-5 and Sigma SD1 - one utterly unexpected model stole the ...
I am in love! Yes, the X100 is THE camera that I was always looking for and the only camera I would love to always carry around with me. Maybe it’s not as fancy as a Leica M9/M8.2 or X1, the X100 is also way more affordable than these cameras, and sti...
There's no denying that £1000 for a compact is very steep and this is likely to put it out of reach for many people. This is a shame, because it's a beautifully crafted camera that feels superb in the hand and offers excellent results from its APS-C senso...
