Re: Fujifilm X-T100 - Experience and Pics

I have been dreaming of a Fuji X for a few years, so when my birthday rolled around in 2019, the wife purchased me a X-T20.  Wow it was a phenomenal camera.  I shot with it for several months.  Then when we had the chance to make a trip NoCal and SoOR, I decided I needed to get her something that would accompany my T20 and be a great camera for her.  I found an X-T100 on Amazon for a great deal.  For seven days on that trip, she shot over 1200 photos.  Several times on the trip I check her images and the settings on the camera and I was horribly disappointed.  Over 1200 photos and we ended up with about 20 pics that were worth a darn.  All the pics were shot with the kit lens.   When I returned home, I started to read reviews and the T100 only found marginal reviews, especially for quickness to focus and overall ability to focus.  After playing with the camera for another 3 months I was ready to give up and throw it on ebay.  Then this past weekend, I decided to set up the camera for full manual and throw on a prime Samyang lens.  Once I got it fully configured.... OH MY GOODNESS!!!!   Wow the pics were spectacular!  I am shooting on "M" with the left control knob set for ISO and the Main Control Knob is by default the Shutter Speed.  This is turning into a gem for a Full Control Manual Camera.  I hated it... and now I love it.
