An entry level camera that captured my heart...

I had the Fuji X100, the first version. I was blown away by the fine detail in the images and the great colors and contrast. I ended up selling it on Ebay, since I was feeling guilty for all the cameras that I have.

I do regret selling that, but recently I got the Fuji X-T10 with 27mm lens, both for around $370. Totally amazed at the image quality, and the fact that I can use other lenses with an adapter, using manual focus and focus peak highlight when I am focusing manually. And soon I will be experimenting with using my Super Takumar 150mm Pentax Spotmatic film camera lens with this mirrorless Fuji. Great fun, and I like that there's so many film emulations to choose from.

I have yet to shoot with the older Fuji's and the Bayer sensor, I am curious as to how those images look compared to this camera. Really thinking of getting rid of my other cameras, as I have GAS for sure, and don't need to accumulate so much stuff. Love my Canon 6D but will probably sell it as it's just a monster (that shoots superb low light images), but pretty large compared to the Fuji.

I will post some images in the near future using the Takumar and other film camera lenses. I think I've finally found my brand!
