Fujifilm xt100 still good ?

The X100T is a great compact, fixed-lens camera. The OVF emulates a true rangefinder experience.[1] Using the OVF one can compose while observing what's outside the frame.[2].

The silver version has an advantage for candid photography. The leaf shutter is whisper quiet. You have a quiet shutter without the banding and motion artifacts that can plague rolling electronic shutters. People don't take any silver X100 seriously because of it's diminutive size. I have used them in venues that prohibited the use of DLSRs. I think security assumed it was a film camera.

In very low light I prefer to render raw files in B&W. I usually don't render color raw at ISO parameters above 800. I have no knowledge about in-camera JPEGs.

The X100 and X100T lenses do not perform well at extremely close subject to lens distances at apertures below F4. I don't know if this is the case for the X100T and V lenses.

The infamous X-Trans worm issue is almost always overstated. These artifacts are not an issue (especially in prints) in Lightroom Classic when sharpening parameters are set to 0 or atypically low. The X-100T pixel area is larger than most Bayer12 MP sensors and raw rendering requires very little, if any sharpening. What you observe with pixel peeping rarely appears in prints.

I think the X100T has two disadvantages compared to the F and V. Color signal-to-noise ratio in low light and significantly less cropping flexibility in post-production. This is not a camera for people who prefer to compose by cropping during post-production rendering instead of optimizing composition in real time before pressing the shutter. (Which brings us back to the advantage of having an OVF).

Nice info but that’s not the camera been asked about , we are talking about the xt100 a budget model .
