Well, we know Mathew Brady's wet-plate darkroom fit into a small wagon, as can be seen in this story: http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/07/25/the-all-seeing-eye/   (a direct link to the...

Now I'd definitely call that proving your point!  Bravo, beautiful.

I think there's more to it than that.  Consumer Reports does not constantly complain about cars whose radios lack tuning & volume control knobs and tuning buttons, instead relying on touchscreen...

And not at all about the getting there?  So better manual focus and faster AF do not matter?

I don't get it.  In view of this: "Wow. What a better camera it is. Faster in every possible way. AF now caught my kids as fast as any camera. Manual focus is a dream." why wouldn't it be a "keeper"?

It was a metaphor.

I love the photos and I love the review, especially the way you showed how the X100S controls made the pictures possible.

Overkill in what way?

What accessories do you feel are essential for an X100/X100S?

Is this the infamous "watercolor effect" I've been hearing so much about?  It just doesn't work for me at all.

What did it look like with a full range of tonality?

But the main point for this forum is that the camera did not get in the way of the photographer or prevent capturing these images.  On second thought, perhaps that does count as "forgetting the...

If all you want to do is adjust the brightness of a scene by the equivalent of 1/3 EV that doesn't take "hours in front of the computer".  You could do that in under 2 minutes from start to...

Personally, I find the leaning verticals disconcerting.

Do you by any chance have the ISO limit set?  (See p. 81 in the manual)

Marvelous!

And if you follow the "Pros and Cons" link from the main blog page that's exactly what you'll get.  So far, all Pros.

What is "focus priority mode"?

Isn't that exactly backwards from how you're supposed to do it?  Isn't it always zoom first, then focus?

The real problem with that first image is that there's nothing at all interesting going on in it, and nothing you could fix at the pixel level would solve that problem.
