At this point it's actually akin to a DNG: not pre-sharpened in post.

And yes, the X100's lens is soft AF.

That's a shame for you, because it's sharp AF on the X100F, which has the same lens.

Yes, I meant all X100's. What else did you think I meant?

Any lens these days is pretty decent once you get it to 5.6 or so and the X100's no exception - but what it does below that is something else. It loses almost all of the vaseline effect at 2.8 for sure but it's not great.
