Great idea for a whole new business opportunity. Imagine something like this in pro cameras. Most camera companies SUCK on software side. They should focus on hardware and leave software apps to...

Basic K7 math on volume, the differences on each dimension makes XPro1 is roughly a quarter volume (cubic) larger than X100 (ignore the lens on both). You WILL notice the difference in your hands :-)

Nice composition but isn't the pp color is a bit over-saturated or it came out from the camera that way?

It looks like Yellow River crossing from west to east of China. The entire river almost filled with yellow muddy water and it's part of the reason it got the name. I guess somehow it picked up by...

Image Quality -> Normal/Fine

Great shot but 10/13 sec hand held? Your arms/hands must be like a stone or what kind lens you used, VR? I don't remember any Nikon VR lens in this range (16-35mm VR is F4 max). I am just curious...

Beautiful shot! Reminds me the time I was there a couple years ago. Unfortunately, cafe spill damaged my camera then and I could only stare at it :-(

Good point, if you primarily shoot landscape, especially at night, taking your D3S is no brainer. I have D3 and GF1 (and now X100) and have been Paris many times in last couple of years (just came...

I didn't find it on eBay after trying "lens chip, cpu contact, lens cpu, ...". What's it called? Or better yet a link would be helpful.

This is from a Japanese manufacturer. Sale starts on Aug 4. The MSRP is whopping $200. What a rip-off. Seems like the company is taking advantage of the X100 user's enthusiasm.

It's so beautiful, well deserved 1st place. Congratulations!

Zone focus becomes increasingly difficult under dim light as you have to make the lens wide open and therefore you get very shallow DOF which requires you have a very good judgement on distance...

Thanks for sharing. One thing I perceived is that Multi metering seems giving you a bit depth so the pictures can have a 3D feeling when used properly vs Average metering is kind of flat.

proper light and great composition. Congrats!

Absolutely lovely shot. Is it just me or others see the same way that the early Nikon small DSLRs (D40, 60, 80) seem to have better colors than late bigger brothers like D300, 700, or even D3?

Great shot! I feel so relaxed when I see this picture.

Nice picture but so sad of the story.

Thank you so much for sharing. I just followed your advice and did a few shots and it indeed improved focusing quite a bit. I am sure I can get the hang of it with practice.

I have been so frustrated with X100 focus system and very disappointed that the firmware update barely improved anything in this regard. Then I tried to read the manual in great detail and here it...
