Fujifilm X100F: A great enthusiast compact for manual fans

2017-09-20
fujifilm x' X 100 °f is an excellent camera for enthusiasts who want the best stills possible without having to spend serious bucks on a full-frame model or a Leica with a new higher resolution sensor faster and better autofocus system and streamlined design it hits all the right notes for manual shooting fans still a solid but hefty feeling camera at over 2 pounds which could still stand to have a slightly deeper grip the aperture ring can now be adjusted in 1/3 stop increments and i--i so since tivity has moved to the shutter speed dial you lift it up and twist it in order to change sensitivity while it's optimized for photographers who like buttons and dials and levers and whatnot you can use it in complete auto if you want just set the shutter aperture and ISO to a like many Leica the X 100 F is designed so you can choose exposure settings with the camera off some Street photographers like to be able to somewhat ironically simply point and shoot without looking and video shooting is still an afterthought it's considered a drive mode and uses the shutter button to stop and start one of the cameras continuing highlights is the versatile viewfinder the front lever toggles between an electronic viewfinder and a reverse Galilean optical that has an electronic overlay which displays the frame offset caused by parallax focus areas and other information and all but one aspect of performance is as good as you need for this type of camera battery life it barely makes it through a day of shooting unless you're the type who only takes a shot every now and then
