Don't you worry you might mistaken it with the film/old rangfinder and just cast it aside and forgot about it?

fujinon glasses are currently being used by hasselblad for their H series...

i wish the camera will cost less than rm 3000... then i will buy

it's a nice camera... no bells and whistles. just a classic 35mm lens no zoom nothing. syiok arr

hmmm..if its priced the same as a Leica...why would anybody buy it?

anyway..got any pic samples?

hahahaa
even if it's half the price of the X1, i won't buy the fuji edi

X100 price is out. Same as Leica X1 price.

dunno...the news said yes...kakakaka

Now that the X100 is out, I'm just wondering whether the Leica X1 is actually a Fuji camera with Leica red dot pasted on. Maybe not as obvious as the PanaLeicas but still, makes me wonder  . Watever you decide to buy, could still end up with Fuji.  Mua ha ha ha.

Kinda expensive hor @ double price of nex

haha the L wannabe

me thinking to try out this one before heading for the Red Dot, hopefully x-2 coming out soon when this come available.....hahah

Dilemma purchasing the X100

So these badboys have arrived in some camera shops around Auckland, New Zealand. Can get one for about NZD $1599 (=USD $1181)

This will be my first camera and I will be doing all round shots (street photography, portraits, macro and landscape shots). I was initially looking at a Canon 550D with a prime lens or canon 24-105 L lens. But now I'm leaning towards a smaller camera and easier to carry around but still able to take superb photos. Hence, now my choices are the Panasonic GF2, GF1 + 20mm f1.7 lens, Olympus PEN EPL-2 and Fujifilm Finepix X100.

I am able to get the GF1 + 20mm f1.7 lens kit for about NZD $900 (=USD 664) but thats without the viewfinder though.

I am interested in the X100 because it's newer, comes with large sensor, compact size, reasonable price since it's a competitor to the Leica X1 (or poor man's M9 rather). Given that the GF1 was released in 2009(?), should I be leaning towards newer tech? I am also looking to keep the camera for a long time and not replacing it every year.

Would you top up about USD $300-400 to get the X100 as the price not too significant compared to a GF1 + 20mm + viewfinder which should add up to about USD $800 in total.

GF1 + 20mm f1.7 lens without viewfinder addon = USD $652
GF2 14-45mm kit without viewfinder addon = USD $782
X100 = USD $1171

What are your thoughts?

Noctilux with Leica once get bored with X100

Apasal this thread so many page long but still no HCB styled street shot wan?

it looks huge, but it's not actually. quite a nice size, although i know there is a smaller (standard) size for soft shutters.
Oh yeah, for the hood or any 49mm hood like the X100 ones, the correct snap lens cap size is 58mm.

I haven't felt the need to use 3200 much, only in twilight (past 6:00pm in Brisbane). Even then, the results are impressive - and that's just based on the out-of-camera JPEGs.

Anyway, I've been hunting high and low for the hood. Nobody seems to have any. It's either I get a "no stock" reply or a countenance that shows they've never even heard of such a thing.

Guess I'll just have to wait for the Fujifilm people at Axis to get their stock and contact me.

slowpoke .. a poor's man leica M8, actually not a poor's man, but a wise man.. (since its cheaper, better, more function)

It sure less than that now...
