Fujifilm Finepix X100 Professional - Review


Quick Description: A new breed of camera, retro looking but bursting with the latest technology. APSc DSLR size sensor, Bright 35mm f/2.0 Lens and Hybrid viewfinder.

There has soo much interest in this camera, very Leica looking and truly focused on high quality rather than price. For just under £1000 it needs to deliver as it falls into the price range of many well regarded DLSR's inc Nikon D7000 and Canon 60D. The Hybrid viewfinder is superb and easily and beautiful flicks between optical for true bright viewing and digital for full info display and image playback.

Pros:
  • Build Quality - Does not disappoint
  • Lens - Ultra bright / sharp 35mm f/2.0 lens
  • Hybrid finder - Brilliant
  • Looks - Who doesn't love the retro look.
Cons:
  • Not interchangeable lens? The 35mm is beautiful, but would be nice to have options
  • Price - £1000 not cheap, but it is good.
Verdict:
If your in the market for this sort of high quality digital camera, it knocks the socks off its competitors. The DSLR sized APSc EXR sensor is superb, a fantastic option to have in your camera collection.
