I ended up pulling the trigger on the original X100 in good condition for £200. I couldn’t find the x100S for any less than £350 so a pretty significant saving.

I’ve also heard that firmware version 2.00 improved operation (AF and MF) of the camera significantly to the point where it’s pretty close to the S. Also love the output from the original when looking at online samples.

I’m planning to use this camera as I would a film camera. OVF only with the rear LCD screen turned off.

I can’t wait to start shooting with it!

Now use a Nikon Z system as my “Pro” setup, a Ricoh GRIII for EDC and the Fuji when I want to slow down and enjoy the experience of photography. Happy!

Congrats, that's a great buy!

If you did not have yet, can download the X100 camera's pdf manual at the below links.
