Don't fall for the "new camera is the best since sliced bread" mantra.  It is a total waste of perfectly good equipment you have. If the pictures are not good, it isn't the camera.... Or do it like...

In my humble opinion the x100s and last fw x100 are pretty close in day-to-day performance that you can be actually mistaken which one you are holding. They are both pretty decent performance wise...

Most likely it is X100.

I am jlad that someone finally jot me straijht in pronouncinj jif.

Actually I had nex5N for a week and mine surely did have it on video recordings, loud and clear - now it didn't bother me as I am not really into using camera as video (or taking video at all), I...

I actually didn't hear about any common quality issues with x100s unlike with the x100. Not sure what you refer to. Most people just usually comment on the operation, not satisfied with the look of...

I think people really refer to a very close up/near macro shots with f2 as not being sharp. Anything in normal photo distance is great.

Mine seems to be exposing correctly. Maybe you have different settings. The autofocus is the same quality and speed as the new x100 firmware. Good enough, not great. You had to be bit...

My old x100 froze about 5 times during 2 years, the x100s didn't as of now. Maybe it is specific to some function that will make it run in loop.

It is the same camera, but now has more pixels to crunch. The phase detection helper is more on a voodoo side, it does probably help sometimes, but not that often. Sure things will get better with...

They can keep high prices if we are buying them.  Sure anybody will like if the price is lower but if the downside of this would be lower quality (and that is certainly the case) then no. I don't...

It is not that bad for both x100 and x100s. I don't think the x100s is going to be any faster or better in low light but it is still perfectly usable. I used x100 in churches, museums, aquariums...

The nodebox may be pretty steep introduction to node editing. It is free, but not intuitive at all. I think that is problem of many node editors, too many connection points where it is not obvious...

I think the brilliance of the editor as far as my brain understand is the fact that you need to setup your favorite process only once and that you can merge processes together. As an example I will...

The camera opens aperture to full in order to be able to correctly focus. The difference is due to the way fuji works when on lcd and ovf. I believe they piggyback on the lcd data when on lcd mode...

But to have two cameras with the same oily smudge on lens is 100% unlikely. Maybe you just got your old camera back or you seeing something that isn't there.

If you wish for things like full frame sensor you are very likely to be disappointed. How about really faster AF this time and not only on paper.  On paper the x100s is a fastest camera in the world.

This looks brilliant.

What is super cheap if you don't mind? Just curious what X100 goes for today.

HX is a good P&S series. Snappy, reasonable optics, not so noisy output.
