Re: X-T100 is still wonderful (but heavy!)

I am writing this in 2022. I bought the Fuji X-T100 after looking at hundreds of sample photos for just about every cameras.
I originally came from the Olympus family of compact cameras. I loved Olympus colours. With the advent of the smartphone, Olympus stopped updating their advanced compact cameras. However, some of us do want pocketable PASM camera. A smartphone is a pain, if you want to adjust settings to get the right shop.
I have the Olympus XZ-2. However, they did n't update it. I looked at advanced compacts from Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Fuji..... none were able to match Olympus colours. I loved the sample image images from the X-T100. The pictures were very sharp. The colours were great.
I had XZ-2 in 2013-2014 and X-T100 for a short period of time in 2018 and 2020.
I agree with you.
I decided to buy the Fuji X-T100 and found the image quality is satisfying. The colours are better due to their new Bayer sensor.
A lot of manufacturers, use the same sensors. So the images look all the same. The colours are off. So I have pleased when Fuji developed their own sensor.
Most of the other Fuji camera use Xtrans sensor, which seem to have a grey tint. great for artistic phtos, but I like colours to be dynamic and accurate, but not vibrant. For some reason people like Fuji X-trans, but it is n't for me.
Since releasing the X-T100. Fuji have released the X-T200, but I don't like the colours. For me it is n't worth upgrading to.
The only down side on the XT-100, is the slow AF.
I remember when I took first shot and was stunned by great color and detail.
Strangely, I didn't have same feeling from X-A5, the camera of the same generation with same sensor.
It is n't the perfect camera, as it is heavy for me. I want a pocketable camera.
