QUOTE(ricgan @ Mar 28 2012, 04:36 PM) i brought this for about a weeks edi , let me tell you what is the good and bad . thanks for your useful advise here.good : 1.you will love its amazing photo quality and high iso performance for sure , my NIKON D80 cant even beat fuji iso performance , 1600 D80 start to wave white flag but fujifilm still provide a clean image somehow counted as no noise at all. 2.it's retro outlook will never fail to help you attract girl's attention , not only girl actually . Lol 3. Macro mode which you will never find in most of the kit lens of dslr .or you will need to get a lens which equal or even more expensive than x100 to get that function on your dslr. 4.hybrid view finder , seriously love it . bad: 1.if you're shooting during your trip you will need to non stop switching the shooting moide from macro to normal as the minimum focus distance in normal mode are 80cm. 2.F2.0 not so useful in macro mode as it affect the image quality , you'll see some shadow of your object if you shot in macro mode with greater than f4.0 . 3.i just dont understand why they dun wanna set the auto iso control iinto the quick fn button list but have to go all the way into menu list to turn auto iso on and off? 4. battery consumption , alots of ppl saying its consume battery very fast , but i am not so sure as i havent even finish my battery once since the day i bought x100. conslusion , if your budget allow , you can actually have both dslr and fuji x100, you'll love fuji for sure , but i believe dslr are still uselful to you as it's ability of changing lens . and i will love x100 even more if it can have a quick access menu like how the x-pro1 does. i'm now looking for seller of x100 and any recommend shop in klang valley with nice price tag? |

Just liaise up with him recently, gonna get my x100 soon just call him up and he will deliver to you somewhere near your area in klang valley , best price i ever found . 0165404150 MR.loh , or find his post in trade zone , his name scdvom. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1515794&hl= Added on March 29, 2012, 2:28 pm i dont know if you notice but our fren has mentioned about it few post before this , in mf mode , there's a bug which cause the camera to hang when you try to AEL focus at the right edge . so no matter how we still need to wait for a firmware update to make x100 work 100% perfect |

QUOTE(seech @ May 7 2012, 07:06 AM) I only use the hood when I know I'll be shooting something and the camera is not going to be in the bag. Otherwise I just leave the hood off and depend on the filter + adaptor for protection and stuff it into a small bag. What kind of small bag you guys using ?? Any recommendation ?? |
