You've got to love the dynamic range on the sensor - this was a single shot from earlier in the year and it was sunny outside:

 

[Barrysprout]

Just dug up a couple of old shots.

Great shot Chris, and well suited to mono.

The new generation Fuji's are superbe, don't get one, you won't use your new X100 anymore

 

[macvisual]

Hi Peter,have you never owned an X100?

Nope, I've never had the privilege Chris. Is there much difference in the 'S' version over the standard X100 ?

Thanx;
Pete

Massive in that the X100 has a 12Mp Bayer, X100S has X-Trans, X100S has faster AF, but there is something very slow and deliberate about the simplicity of the X100

this Peter

if you were going to get one it has to be the original otherwise you going down the same road,the x100 has the bayer so its the only different one part from the Xa series

So has the original X100 have the same Bayer sensor as the X-Pro1 I wonder ?

no Peter the pro 1 has the 1st gen trans

The original X100 is much cheaper than the two neuer models, but it has still some bugs that were fixed in the X100s. The main improvements in the X100s are AF and overall speed as well as the higher resolving 16 MP X-Trans sensor with all it's advantages and disadvantages. Many say that the original X100 has the better colours, maybe thats true, but it also has at least 1 stop weaker high ISO performance for sure. Anyway, there is the X100t now, that is even more improved, mainly in terms of user interface and overall speed again.

If you just want to get the feeling without spending to much money you can go for an original X100. Just make sure that you get a model of the later production to avoid the sticky aperture blades (SAB) error.

I love the 1-1 format on the x100s and cc on the t.

Thanks for that detailed info, appreciated. So how do you know which X100 serial model to aim for that doesn't have the sticky blades would you know please ?

What doess cc mean? Sorry if I'm being dumb. I have the s.

 

[Thunderbird010]

Classic Chrome

 

[G.K.Jnr.]

What doess cc mean? Sorry if I'm being dumb. I have the s.

Could it be Classic Chrome preset ?

George.

 

[simon ess]

Aah, gotcha.

Thanks both.

Anything 2-1 series number Pete and yes the later x100 s and t have improved performance but only the x100 original will give you a different look to what you already have or have tried

If anyone fancies moving on their minty/boxed X100 as a trade/deal against a virtually new X-E2 black body please give me a shout.

Thanks.

I've a minty boxed x100 original with both converters and a nice billingham bag that I really don't use enough but I don't need an XE2 as I have an XE1 and XT1 that do me fine. But if you sell the xe2 then let me know and I'll show you some pics of the gear

 

[macvisual]

Cheers Ian, I'll keep in touch with you if my XE2 sells. Thank you Sir.
