finally got my x100s yesterday..

RM3380 with leather pouch n 8gb wi-fi SD card (i top up RM80 to replace the normal SD card with wi-fi one)

what bout this cam-in g series
i ordered mine around rm50..

my soft shutter release costs me rm20 only, same concave matte red

or put some nail polish on the thread of the soft shutter, let it dry and install to the shutter button.
thats what others do..
but my rm20 soft shutter so far tak pernah nak tercabut, i didnt apply any nail polish whatsoever. haha.

match technical ah? he told me got some customer buy the RM20-30 soft shutter to save money then some poorly made will damage the inside or easy break wor ..after that I scared a bit already haha..he told me got one of his customer buy the thumbs up for his leica cheap china brand 1 then the top plate got scratches near the dial due to the thumbs up..

ofcourse its not from match technical.
mine is not poorly made, its aluminum and its do its job. theres nothing to damage the inside of the shutter button la bro haha.
for the thumb up it depends la, if the one that he bought doesnt fit nicely then ofcourse it'll scratch the body.
my thumb up tak kena body camera, so its not gonna damage the body

they told that to you because they wanna sell their item.. biasa la haha. tp match technical punya thumb up price crazy one.

but phobia ma haha, buy new camera few k takkan want to take the risk to save a few tens ..but thumbs up for me not such a big deal, I more interested in the grip haha. but i also waiting for the one that fuji announced that can change battery+sd card and also got the tripod mount haha..

of coz la i know they want me to buy their product , but like I said ma, match technical is a pretty popular brand used by leica users too so their products should be quite reliable..takkan spend few k on camera and save a few bucks on accessories haha..yeah if i'm not mistaken they told me its 300 or 400 something?

well.. yea.. a lot of walking especially around rome and florence.. leg and shoulder pain.. zzz.. X-E2 or X-M1 which is the prefer choice though ? heard from ppl that fuji colour is very good..

i think right (and i might be wrong), basically XE-2 and X-M1 is the same..just stuff like fps is different..the main difference (I think) is x-m1 dun have viewfinder, but honestly, even with the x-pro 1 i find myself using the screen a lot also. and x-m1 flash can be bounced too (not sure if xe2 can or not)..

yeah, not only shoulder or leg pain bro haha, but also not so convenient right to carry a big dslr around? I was in Portugal for study, went to Spain and Paris for awhile..also very afraid of pickpocket as Europe A LOT of pickpocket..

u can ask @chongkiatz for better personal review for the x-m1 as he just bought 1 some time ago..

hmm sometimes normally i do look at viewfinder when situation arise like kinda hard look at the screen when too much sunlight..

then probably xe-2/x100/s better for you..for xe2 u have the option of using the LCD or EVF..for x100/s and xpro1 u have LCD,EVF and hybrid VF..speaking of brand new, x100s is about 3300, x-pro1+ 18mm/35mm is about 4400..xe-2 with 18-55 is about same as xpro1 also i believe..

which 1 do you prefer over the x100s and x-pro 1? seeing as you have both now haha..

I'm actually pretty interested to get the x100s for my brother..what's the best price you can offer?

man...lucky I don't have extra cash..(gear lust haha)..nice price!

Well, i would say both offering same good IQ but the only hold back is non interchangeable lens, but is good too as need not to spend extra bucks for lenses...

Thanks bro, well warranty starts on the 26th dec 2013, just a week and i've not even bring it out from home, hope someone can adopt and appreciate it rather than sleeping inside my drybox

i have tested both and opt for XE2. here're some comparison i can recall:
image quality not much different.
XE2 got viewfinder, XM1 no.
XE2 AF better than XM1
XE2 build quality better (more metal) compare to XM1 (more plastic)
XM1 got tilted screen good for capturing low and high angle shot with LCD, XE2 don hav
XE2 got faster processor, therefore faster frame rate, read write speed etc.
XE2 better grip than XM1 (although both also not much grip to me)
more customize button for XE2 than XM1
if u are those people who like a lot of manual controls, button, dial etc... XE2 is a better choice

price way big difference

Black & White via X-M1 with 27mm F2.8
