Won’t happen but the only thing that would make me purchase an X100 camera is mechanical manual focus with distance scale on the lens and a real range finder.

The OVF experience as it is has too many compromises for me.

Otherwise dump the OVF and equip it with a better EVF.

Several features of the X100 line are there to mitigate the lack of mechanical focus and distance scale: everything from the digital distance scale to the focus limiter.

Clutch focus and a distance scale would go a long way to enhancing the original direct-control gestalt of the X100 series. Fuji's shown they can do this with lenses like the 14/2.8.

If Fuji were to do this I'd be very intrigued.
