So tempted. But it's a lot of wonga
Why was it rare?I agree, I could put the £££ towards the 80mm f2.8 macro or 100-400mm but there something about the Fuji X100, regret selling my rare original
The trouble is with the X100F is that it's so expensive. 2nd hand X-Pro2s can be had in excellent condition for around £1000. You can also by an XT1 and a X100T and still have enough to buy a 35mm 1.4 for that
Yes. But that will change when supplies become easily available.
I expect it to be under £1000 in 6 months.
So how many special editions did they make and how did it differ to the ltd edition i had?

I do think it is overpriced. Yes, I know new models are premium, and the £ is not strong, but as a T owner I just don't see the benefit... mine is worth what, £400/£450? so £800 or so for something slightly faster with a fe more MP? I know there is a bit more to it but not good value for me.
There were 10,000 Limited Edition X100 Blacks - worldwide
The package of X100 BLACK Limited Edition contains the camera unit, a genuine leather ever-ready case, a lens hood, an adapter ring and a protective filter. Each package comes with a message card reading a number as proof that it is one of only 10,000 units produced.
@Fuguru appeared to have one of the hens teeth wooden box units (not available in the UK). Was it silver or black ??
It was silver, it was like new when I traded it in.
Serious question. Is the black JJC lens hood any good. Does the colour match the camera? Is the quality of the fit and finish good. Should I just get the genuine item?
You pay for what you get, buy the original.
I have 2 black and 1 silver (long story) both Fuji fit like a gem.
Thanks. I tried a third party Silver on my X100 Classic. Only once. Threw it away and went genuine. Figured it might be the same with the black.
Has anyone bought a x100/s/t and then thought " bugger, this fixed FL isn't for me" ?
I think I'm getting a little obsessed

Yes I have - I really love the X100 series - I've had an X100 & an X100s - it is such a good looker but for me it has two issues - it's similar in size to my XT1 and it has a fixed 23 mm lens. If I fit converters then the size increases and I might as well carry the XT1 as it's more flexible with a zoom lens. For me (and I stress the 'me') the 23 mm lens was neither here nor there - not wide enough for landscape and not long enough for other photography. I still love it though and recently bought an X100s thinking that I would overcome my issues but it didn't work and I've now sold that.
I would really love an X100f but I know I'll have the same issues.
Is anyone just using the X100 as there only camera? This is what I am thinking of doing and adding the wcl. I've already sold my XT2 and just have the XT1 now and 35 1.4
My "problem" is I don't just shoot one thing - I'm just a hobbiest after all. When I use my x30, I nearly always shoot at 28mm but when I use my e-m1 and 12-40 I hardly ever shoot at 12 ( 24 ) mm. Odd..
My reasoning for the x100T is that I could take it everywhere and not have to bother with my m43 gear for holiday - it would be good in low light etc but is 35mm wide enough ? I like doing some long exposures, I like landscapes...so should I just forget it and take my rx100 with filter kit that I hate using or the e-m1 ( which is crap for LE )
Stoopid hobby, this
Other way round for me. Letting my X-T1 and lenses go. Second time I've tried X-T1. I like it, but it's just not for me.
I've been using the X100 for years. It suits me. I take the view that when it comes to pictures, I can't get them all.
F on order. Can't wait.

You sold the 16-55 already. If you move your 35 on let me know
Your nuts lolNot yet but going to be selling my XT1 probably and then decide between X100F with WCL or X-T20 have pre-orders for both at the minute.
