I ordered an XT100 to use with an XF23 F2, Adorama is offering a crazy deal I couldn’t pass, you get the camera body plus the Domke Fuji bag, the small Fuji EF-X20 flash, 32gb memory card and a peak wrist strap, all for $559. I sold my XT2 last year and recently my XH1 and I’m currently waiting for an XT30, I preordered the charcoal so it won’t come till June, I hope the XT100 isn’t too slow like they say, I’m planning to use it as my landscape cam so I’ll be getting an L bracket for it.

That's a great deal, I'll be very surprised if you find the AF too slow, I was shooting with mine yesterday and had no issues at all, just remember to switch on performance mode, which doesn't appear to make any difference to battery life, which is pretty good anyway. Enjoy and let us know what you think.

Performance mode will be the first thing I set after updating the firmware. How do you find the little grip that comes in the box? This camera will be used mostly for landscape and and possibly at gatherings for indoor use.

It's ok but I prefer a deeper grip, so I got one of these, which is ideal for me. I've removed the side bar on it so I can still flip out the LCD. It adds a bit of weight but not too much and makes it more comfortable for me to operate the rear coin slot type control wheel with my thumb. I find it very comfortable to shoot with this on.

Yes, removed mine too :), I also added small rubber grip dots to mine as the metal is a bit slippy.
