Point & Shoot King?

Ok, I know the X100S is not a point-and-shoot, but it's just as much fun. The only other camera I own to compare this with is my Canon 7D, also an APS-C sized sensor. Otherwise, it's image comparisons. So let's compare. I prefer the X100S over the 7D for: Image Quality (The reviews are correct; SOOC JPEGS are fantastic. RAW shots look fine to me after the LR update.) Viewfinder is awesome, both OV and EV (So is handling the camera like a P&S and watching the 2.8" LCD on the back.) Weight (It's about 678 pounds lighter than a DSLR.) Film Simulation (Astia and B&W's are especially amazing. Fuji color is greatness!) Cost (Believe it or not, I would have rather spent all this scratch on the X100S and gotten the amazing IQ right out of the camera than spend the same amount on the 7D and then have to turn around and then spend the SAME amount on a lens good enough to get images like the X100S. Don't spend money on a wide L lens for the 7D, buy the X100S, have some fun and fuggedaboutit. Sorry, Canon!) Fun (Yes, the X100S is a JOY to shoot with. The big DSLR's are like carrying around a baby all day. Does baby need a new 13 pound lens? Aww[...]) Lens (I like the lens on the X100S. It's definitely not the best I've ever used, but I don't see the problems some people say they are seeing at f/2. That said, I'm not a "pixel peeper." I believe a photograph speaks for itself, flaws included. I did get some light leak shooting into the sun, even with the lens hood on.) High ISO Performance (I bought this camera for my hopes in the ISO. The 7D doesn't even come close and I would put it up against the full-frame bad boys also. I can most definitely use images at 6400 from the X100S. I can use some images from the 7D at 3200, but then I've got to de-noise to the point where people look like they're all in the The Dark Crystal. Y'all remember that one? Dorks! High ISO is amazing, nuff said.) Camera Styling (You'd better enjoy talking to strangers.) So, what don't I like? I don't like the $2.00 strap that comes with the $1300 camera. Why not just give me a piece of twine, Fuji? Or a shoestring... At $1300, a case would also be nice. Despite Fuji claims, the AF is not the fastest, especially in lower-light. However, it's not awful; perhaps even completely acceptable. It's also not the sports-shooter the 7D is; not that it claims to be. The camera also seems to have difficulty waking up from sleep from time to time. It's almost faster to turn it off when not shooting. Some of the menu choices are a little iffy. You can't change the options in the EVF without looking through the EVF. So you're trying to look through the EVF and push the menu buttons at the same time. Oversight? Firmware fix? I shot a 2-day charity event with the little X100S up against another photographer with a Nikon 800D and another with the Canon 6D (true story.) I was worried about the little X; I had only had her for about 5 days. The X100S held her own against the big boys. Image quality is just THAT good. SOOC. JPEG. I did go through 3 batteries each day of the shoot; I don't like it that auto-shutoff doesn't go less than 2 mins. A small nuisance for the payoff... I still like my 7D, but the X100S changes the game for me. Digital photography is getting better and smaller. The Fuji X100S is a tiny juggernaut in the world of extremely heavy titans. Bravo, Fuji! Encore! Addendum: After using the X100S for over two months, I still love the camera. I don't know what it is, if it's the metering system or what, but the camera seems to have trouble locating the correct exposure. I don't know if others have had this issue, but if I shoot anything in auto mode, (aperture, shutter or ISO) the exposure is not ideal, usually overexposed. The upside to this is that the camera is forcing me to shoot fully manual, which is helping me become a better photographer. Luckily, you can set the big 3 very easily on this camera. I've seen a slideshow with stills from this camera and others on a 46" flatscreen TV; the X100S IQ is just amazing. The photos taken with this camera stand out above the others. I've heard somebody say this camera is a "Leica killer." That may be a reach, but it ain't far... I'd still buy and pay full price for this machine. ... show more

Awesome compact picture making machine.

Great Camera. I love all the manual controls. The build quality is really really good. The autofocus is more than adequate for me. I used to shoot the Nikon D90 and sold it to get this camera since I needed a more portable camera. For me this camera focus faster than the D90. This was unexpected as I have read everywhere about the slow AF of the fuji. I expected slow, but I guess my expectations were too low. Image quality is awesome. The reason I dinged the camera and only gave it 4 stars is that while the build quality is good it is not great. 90% of the camera is built well, but there are some weak points. For example the battery door is a flimsy plastic.Also the battery fits into the camera in the correct as well as incorrect position. They should have designed batteries which only fit the proper way. I am thrilled with the camera so far, but I've only had it for a day. I will post updated once I've lived with the camera for a while. Update 11/3/2013 Just a quick update. I had a chance to shoot the camera at a party for a number of hours last night and so far I am thrilled. The lighting conditions were not ideal, but the camera performed great. The autofocus performed flawlessly 98% of the time. It locked focused in situations where the Nikon D90 simply would not. Keep in mind that I used to shoot the D90 with the 35mm f1.8 lens. The fuji colors really impress me and the camera is incredible at ISO 6400. It is actually completely usable at ISO 6400. The nikon topped out at 1600. Quick Update 11/10/2013 I bought the EF-20 Flash to go with the camera. Love the size of the little flash and the fact it has bounce capability. Still really like the camera, but I do have a few things to report. I did not think I would be so bothered by the terrible battery life. It seems like I'm always running out of juice. I bought 2 extra batteries but if I was going away for a weekend with the camera I don't think 3 batteries would be enough. I will be buying 2 more batteries. Even though one of my previous cameras the Panasonic LX7 also had similar battery life it did not seem to bother me so much since it was not my primary shooter. Also I had a few instances of the camera taking extremely long time to write a picture.I'm talking about a minute or so long to write a single picture to the card. This happened after shooting a long exposure photo in bulb mote or T mode. One more thing... It seems that the camera overexposes photos. This is very easily remedied with the exposure dial. It may have something to do with the fact I have a single focus point selected. It may be selecting just one point as opposed to average of the entire image... Not really sure why it is happening yet. Update 1/1/2014 I've lived with the camera for two months now. Still really love the camera. Last night I shot a New Years' Eve party with it with terrible lighting conditions. I used the EF-20 bounce flash. Mos tof the pictures were shot at F2 , ISO 3200 and 1/60 shutter speed. The pictures it produced were simply outstanding. No need for noise reduction as the pictures looked so clean. (I am talking about RAW since jpgs already have NR). There is really nothing else out there like this camera unless you want to spend thousands more on a leica etc... There is no way I would have brought a DSLR with me to a party and no other small camera that I know of could have produced these type of results under these conditions. ... show more

An amazing camera once you learn it

First of all, before reading any more of my review on the Fuji x100s, drop all thoughts and presumptions about what this camera should do. Drop all thoughts concerning auto focus, ISO, and handling performance. Forget that this camera lacks modern features such as image stabilization and NFC. Now with a clear mind look at what this camera is. This camera is all about bringing the photographer back to their roots and hone their skills in the art of image capture. Let me say this right away, this camera is not for beginners looking for an auto mode and image stabilization to get the job done. That would be an insult to what this camera is capable of doing. They are better off with a point and shoot or a mirrorless alternative. This camera isn't about speed either. When focusing, even with the improvements over its predecessor, it pales in comparison to my OMD. So it seems like Fuji made a lemon right? Not at all, the x100s is a wonderful camera that can take outstanding photos once you understand its limitations and fully utilize its strengths. The lack of image stabilization may seem to be a deal breaker for some, but remember that image stabilization is an aid to help the photographer. Too often the user is dependent on aids such as image stabilization to get a sharp image. With the x100s, you have to do image stabilization the proper way, with a suitable shutter speed (1/focal length minimum). Fortunately the x100s is happy to oblige with its fast 35mm 2.0 lens and usable ISO range from 100-6400 so that obtaining a fast enough shutter speed is pretty easy. This is what I mean about learning the camera; the x100s is capable of producing stunning images that shames my OMD and other DSLRs provided that you learn how to extract the most from it. The viewfinder of this camera is simply superb. Fuji's setup effectively merges the benefits of an OVF with an EVF. With the OVF, there is no delay when panning around the scene. However the main issue with using the OVF is that with the uncertain auto focus system, you may not know if the image captured was in focus at all. This is an issue with the x100s, the auto focus system can get confused easily. Good thing that we can review the images and reshoot if necessary. Another good thing is that the manual focusing aspect of this camera in combination of the focus aids such as the focus peaking feature, allows you to focus even when the camera refuses to. Another great feature of this camera is the built in ND filter. Although the shutter speed limitation of 1/4000th may be troublesome, using the ND filter can help get around this issue. The best feature of this camera is the sensor. I have no issues using ISO 6400 when the lighting situation isn't optimal. Yes the image may not be as detailed my full frame camera, but photography is about capturing that moment and having an image that isn't as detailed nor as clean is preferable to not having the image at all. From my experience, the ISO performance of this sensor matches or is better than my OMD. So there you have it. From my experience with this camera, it has been wonderful to me. I have been able to capture some amazing photos by learning to deal with the limitations of the camera. Yes I can take amazing photos from my other cameras, but this camera has a specific look and feel that the others doesn't seem to have. This camera is more like a companion camera more than a DSLR replacement. This is the camera you take when don't want to lug around your DSLR with the 35mm lens. This is the camera that you carry around that won't draw attention when you try to discretely capture street scenes. If you decide to get this camera, spend 2-3 weeks with it, shooting solely with this camera. Carry it around with you everywhere. You may initially find the task daunting, but it will be well worth it. ... show more

Quality is good enough for commercial use

I'm a full time commercial performance photographer who specializes in theatrical, symphonic and dance photography, both for production as well as publicity. I have waited to review the X100S I purchased from Amazon and received on March 28 2013 simply because I wanted to take some time to use the camera before writing a review. I had purchased an X100 just before the S model was announced and found the image quality to be remarkable. Because I was late to the game in purchasing the X100 many of the 'quirks' others complained about I did not experience due to the numerous firmware updates Fuji had released since the camera's inception. Because the X100S had features that could not be fixed through a firmware update such as the Q button and moving the focus point selector from the left to the right I opted to sell my X100 and preordered the S model. I will say that I sorely missed having an X100 or S model during my two month wait. I have experimented with the X100S over the past two months using it in both personal and commercial work. Yes I said commercial work. There are several features I find quite remarkable on this camera regardless of a camera in any price range: 1. The sharpness of the images due in part to the elimination of the optical low pass filter 2. The noise performance of the camera 3. Having an (almost) unlimited flash sync speed due to its leaf shutter 4. Built in 3 stop ND filter 5. An almost completely silent shutter (again due to its leaf shutter) What I would like to see improved: 1. A bit more resistance to the on/off switch 2. Allowing the user to customize the Q menu to allow for ALL camera operating choices 3. Allow shooting in RAW mode to include 100 ISO (200 is currently the lowest ISO in RAW) 4. Allow shooting at any shutter speed at any aperture. (this may not be physically possible...) 5. The camera has a tendency to overexpose by about 2/3 of a stop. Easily corrected with the EV control 6. Even though the X100S has a dedicated EyeFi card menu selection, the transfer speed of small JPGS to an iPad is very slow. Much slower than a 5DIII and in some cases makes using it as a wirelessly tethered camera almost useless. The OVF and EVF viewfinders are absolutely brilliant. I find that I have used both equally depending on the shooting situation. In very low light I have found the EVF invaluable. In situations where I need to keep an eye on the environment, the OVF is just killer. While I'm on the subject I personally would never consider a camera that does NOT have a dedicated viewfinder. Since I grew up using SLRs and DSLRs I just cannot effectively use a camera where my only option is to use an LCD screen. I'm also not a fan of having to purchase an 'optional' EVF viewfinder for any camera. Just a personal preference. Did I consider other non DSLR cameras before purchasing the X100S (originally the X100)? Yes, I considered the Canon line for a couple of reasons; their G series has a viewfinder and my primary gear is Canon. Others? Only those that had a viewfinder and I found that those which only have an EVF were a bit too 'jerky' to me. I also tend to put more stock into reviews from people whose body of work I respect. There are plenty of sites on the Web that give tech details and masturbatory reviews of tech specs, but in the end what I produce from any camera is what's more important. I respect Zack's (Arias) work and put stock into how he feels about a camera simply because of his body of work. Although we shoot different types of imagery I trust his and other photographers I respect more than technical sites. A personal view which has served me well. I have always wanted a camera that is lightweight and compact (relative to my work gear) that I can carry with me everywhere. No the X100S is NOT something I can slip into my pocket, but that's OK by me. I simply wear it across my chest using a Luma Labs Cinch strap and I barely notice it's there. My plan was to use it primarily for street shooting, which is something I have a voracious appetite for and have done quite a lot over the years. At least when I have time! Yes I miss a zoom which I found I depended upon quite a bit for my street shooting. But something that a fixed lens camera forces me to do is to immerse myself into the environment for street shooting. It also allows me to grow as a photographer, to get more context into my shots. I have personally found that using the Fuji at night rather than the day makes it easier for me to street shoot. The ISO performance of the X100S is on par with my 1DX up to 6400 ISO and a tad better than my 5DIII. The f2.0 lens allows me to bokeh scenes in a wonderful way. Of course that all depends on how close I am to the primary subject, aperture, etc but I've found it quite lovely. One of the most remarkable features for me is the ability to use small hand held flash units off camera as fill flash with the X100S due to its leaf shutter. I was literally blown away that using a single Canon 580II through a modifier could produce results that in the past required me to use a studio strobe and an ND filter to achieve. I love the fact that I can carry a small flash unit in my bag and take almost commercial level portraits. I'll try to upload some examples with this review. I had mentioned that one of my wishes was for Fuji to enable the X100S select any shutter speed with any aperture. Currently they recommend 1/1000th at a minimum aperture of f2.0. If you want to use 1/2000th, then you must use f4.0 or smaller. I have found that if I'm using a radio trigger to activate the off camera flash 1/1000th and f2.0 works. Anything faster in speed results in funky exposure results. However if I use a cable rather than a radio trigger I can squeeze 1/2000th with f2.0. In terms of flash, milliseconds count so a wired connection is better in some circumstances. It all depends on what you're trying to achieve. In terms of the 'silent shutter' I had firsthand experience with that feature this past week. I was hired to photograph both a live and rehearsal performance of a major US symphony. Since I use two cameras whenever I shoot production had I not had the X100S I would have only shot with my 5DIII in silent mode during louder passages. I never even considered my 1DX because even on 'silent' mode it is way too loud. And when I was told the last commercial shooter was kicked out by the world renowned conductor due to his camera noise (understandable) and attitude (bad) I didn't intend to make the same mistake. So during passages where the musicians were playing very softly I was able to make images with the X100S. Again, a remarkably useful feature for my work. I won't go into the things I 'love' about this camera since that is all relative to each user. I also won't ever be able to completely replace my commercial gear with only mirrorless cameras. Because I shoot dance and live theatre the X100S along with other cameras of this type are just not fast enough from a focusing/shutter release standpoint. But for portraits and publicity work I have and plan to continue to use it for client work; it's that good. Who should buy this camera? Who am I to say!? I can only say (in no particular order) that with its remarkable shutter sync speed, image quality, hi ISO performance and build quality I'm very happy to have purchased this little camera. It's THAT good. And like any tool (rather than looking at gear as a 'jewel') it's perfect for the right job. Will it make you a better photographer; nope. Only improving your skills and executing your imagination will do that. UPDATE June 18 2013 I have had my first image taken with the X100S published commercially. When reviewing imagery my client is not made aware of the camera I've used and bases their selection strictly on image quality, feel, impact among other factors. UPDATE June 30 2013 I recently utilized a wired solution to obtain faster sync speeds than 1/1000th of a second using an off camera flash. I purchased the following system through Amazon: [...] I have been successful at using shutter speeds up through 1/4000th at f2.0 using a WIRED off camera flash. The reason I chose this particular tethered option was twofold. First by having the ability to use regular CAT 5 Ethernet cable I can select what length to carry with me rather than being confined to lengths offered by other off camera flash cords. I also prefer straight cords over coiled because coiled cords tend to tip over my light stands if I stretch them. One of the most remarkable features of this system is the ability to attach up to three cables to the very same controller on top of the camera. I find I'm often using two flash units whenever I take a shot and having this option in one unit is just brilliant. Also since the sockets are on both left, right and front of the controller I can use the two side sockets and not worry about having to hold the cable away from the lens like other single cord off camera cables. I never use TTL so only having one TTL feature available with multiple flashes attached does not affect me. UPDATE 7-21-13 I have posted my commercially published image for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra's 2013-14 season which was printed 11x17 and mailed to all current subscribers. UPDATE 1-14-14 One of my publicity images was printed at 18x80 feet for Dallas Symphony Orchestra. The image was shot with my X100S. [...] ... show more

Great Point and Shoot...

Most important aspect of any camera review! Will it take great pictures... YES! This is a point and shoot camera... no two ways about it. It is the most advanced (and most expensive), quality P&S I own. Great camera that will never replace my professional gear but one that I have no problems with carrying solo. Leaf shutter!!! Strobist dream! Good AF, not DSLR but good. Better than my 7D in the APS-C IQ arena. Great looking, small but not jean pocket-able. It will get you noticed by other photographers... almost like carrying a 1DX with a 200-400mm into a room of Rebels. Most of the non-photography based public will just pass right by though. Silent !!! Great for street work and people shooting, fast moving children might be a challenge. I'm not going to review every detail of this camera. If you need that, Google it. Google Z Arias, Hobby and the plethora of on-line reviewers. You'll find 90% positive reviews and this camera richly deserves the accolades. Is it perfect... no camera is perfect. Could the X100S be even better, for sure. Will this camera kill the DSLR market, hardly. Do I love it? Absolutely. Can I confidently leave my gear bag and DSLR's at home... YES!!! One other note, to those 1 Star reviewers here on Amazon or those that want to compare it to their DSLR's. Total BS, not verified buyers or... well, let me respond with the reply I left for Jakob "Swede" about his issues with this unit; "The lady protests too much, methinks..." I find this interesting... this reviewer has made it a point of posting this complaint in every possible corner of the world and now here on Amazon. It appears to be a personal ax to grind with Fuji. We are supposed to take his word for this "story" as gospel... he did nothing wrong and Fuji is out to get him. Could he have abused this camera and now expects a full replacement? Dropped it hard? Got it wet? It's just as plausible as his story of the camera mysteriously dying. He is not a verified purchaser here on Amazon, or BH... if you are on Flickr, he also complains there too. Something quite fishy. All cameras mass produced can have issues but something doesn't add up here. I use cameras as tools and at 1200$, you are not breaking any banks here. If you truly are a professional photographer, you'd understand this statement and are prepared for occasional issues or accidents. This isn't a Hassy or a Leica, or even mass produced 1DX. It's a P&S. Get it fixed and move on. Oh, BTW... I am a verified purchaser and professional user. It's a great camera, without flaws... no! Possible lemons out there, maybe. How often do you hear this complaint about this camera? The only other 1 star complaints you find here on Amazon (or anywhere else) about this camera are based on "fake reviewers" or people expecting DSLR like AF from this X100S. If you want a professional camera with professional AF for $1200, you're dreaming. Should you trust reviewers like Jakob "Swede"... that's only for you to determine. Me, not so much. *** Again, this is a P&S. Not a professional build level camera with sport photography based AF. If you're looking for that in the X100S you're delusional. If you're looking for a great alternative to the 25lb plus gear bag and DSLR kit... this might be what you're looking for. It was the answer I had been looking for and had hoped for in the X100. That's a great camera but missed on a few important aspects, IMHO. Now, the X100S addressed those aspects and came back STRONG!!! ... show more

It’s not a pro camera, it’s not a semi-pro camera. It’s a nice looking toy. That’s all. 2 stars.

I started taking pictures when I was a child. I was developing film and printing photographs in the darkroom by age of 13. I began photographing again as an adult around end of last century and have been doing it since. My total photographic experience is thus over 15 years. I do not do this for a living as I prefer art photography to taking paid assignments. Some of my work has been sold and some published. I do not call myself a “professional photographer” but consider my level of knowledge and proficiency in the field higher than that of the most people who call themselves that. Having said the above let’s turn to the equipment. I own quite a few pieces of photo equipment. Among those are three (3) Canon SLR bodies (two of them digital) and a set of L lenses. For night/street shooting I use Bessa R2A with Nokton 35mm f/1.2. I also own Canonet QL17 GIII. When I saw the x100S I found the look of it appealing and resembling the QL17. Then I read the rave reviews, all the specs and features and thought I’d like to have one. And now I do. After a little over 2 months of shooting here’s my impression. I thought if I could get a rangefinder type digital camera for night/street photography that would yield at least similar results to the R2a and Nokton or at least to QL 17 - I’d be satisfied. After all Bessa R2a and Nokton 35mm f/1.2 combo is comparable in price (at least it was at the time I bought it). Nokton 35mm f/1.2 is a superb lens. It seems it can see in the dark better than the naked eye sometimes. Even though it uses center weighted spot metering it never blows out the shadows or burns out the lights. Plus the distortion is minimal. X100s is lacking all of the above. It made me reminisce about one of my first digital cameras of 2001 – 2002: the Olympus C-4040. And now, 12 years later I think the Oly performed better. It had a super bright super sharp f/1.8 lens, focused fast, rendered true colors. Batteries lasted a long time. The only drawbacks were low 4 megapixel count, shutter lag and ISO limited at 400. It feels like X100s has the same shutter lag and it’s taking its sweet time to focus too. Mind you, 12 years had gone by. I think most of the rave reviews for the x100s are written by lamers (no offense) who either never owned professional gear or don’t know how to use it. A comment from a “professional” photographer who wrote the x100s was the best digital camera in the world its worst “killer” flaw being silver color just about killed me. Never ever will the x100s be able to do what DSLRs with pro optics are able to do. Even if I compare it with 8 year old Canon EOS 5D. Shutter lag, slow auto focus (it does focus in the dark when it’s in the mood, granted), confusing complicated menus = many many missed shots. In fact oftentimes I find myself in the street messing with the settings while my subjects walk away. When you do manage to get a shot, often you will find that the camera didn’t focus spot on. And if film is somewhat forgiving in this respect, digital sensor is not. Then you notice that in most cases when using spot or center weighted metering outdoors your shadows would be black with no detail. I don’t own any lenses slower than f/2.8 save for f/3.5 8mm fisheye and I would think the prime f/2 lens should produce satisfactory images. No, sir, it does not. Distortion is absolutely horrible. It seems there are no vertical lines in the shot no matter how hard you try. Battery life – horrible. It seems while the rest of the world were developing batteries Fuji were doing something else and then were too greedy to purchase a patent. Why would they declare 330 shots per full charge when the camera cannot do that. It just can’t. I purchased a spare and barely manage to do 300 shots with both. It goes from half charge to red zero charge in no time, sometimes during shooting. Bottom line: it’s not a pro camera, it’s not a semi-pro camera. It’s a nice looking toy. That’s all. 2 stars. ... show more

Currently Fuji x100s is my main camera, I've used it for 1 month and even ordered some prints. I sold Olympus OM-D E-M5 because I have easier time with Fuji x100s skin tones and color. Also low light photos and video is better in x100s. I rated this camera three stars because of my cons. If this camera was cheaper, this would have been a 4 star camera. So I read Zack Arias review on Fuji x100s and he says that not even once he wish he had a different camera with him. In my shooting I found this to be mostly true, the only time I wished for a different camera is in midday sun, see my cons on dynamic range. Fuji claimed fastest auto focus with x100s, really? This is getting close to Nokia's camera phone marketing. This is another reason why I rated this camera 3 stars. Auto Focus is not fastest, it can also be slow, but still good enough for me to sell my OMD. Of course OMD is so much faster, its not even in the same league. Pros - Very good skin tones - Great low light images and video - Very good Built-in flash - Good 30fps Video - Stereo mic - Fast camera performance. - Small size, fits in most of my pockets Cons - Auto Focus, still a little slow - Dynamic Range, it is good but pictures look too contrasty with Auto DR in midday sunlight, in my opinion, this is where i miss Nikon - Good video but has quirks Color & Olympus OM-D The reason people stayed with Fuji x100 is because of the color and skin tones. x100s color is very good but different. I've read Robing Wong's opinion on Fuji x100s and he mentioned that color looks very similar to Olympus color, I agree with him. I have done mini shootout with Olympus OM-D and Fuji X100s, i took pictures of my family. at the same time with both cameras and then showed it to my wife after minor adjustments in Aperture. (this is what i would normally do with my photos) First thing my wife says is that how similar they look and she had hard time choosing a better picture. After i told her to select a better pictures based on skin tones, Fuji won, mostly because OM-D is too contrasty IMO. Also in my opinion Fuji x100s gives me a better image under most conditions that matter to me. in my mini shootout, OM-D actually produced better images few times under some low light shooting. So camera is not perfect, but very good. In general shooting, I feel like i get a little better people colors with Fuji, especially with my newborn. x100 is the best camera i tried for newborns, IMO. 3d Photos I read complains about Fuji x100s not producing 3d like images, I'm really not seeing that but then again I never shot with Leica. Just turn noise reduction to -1 or even -2. I have seen noise reduction flatten faces a little so I keep mine at -1 and also raw files show plenty of 3d in Apple's Aperture software, not sure how it looks in Light Room. Video I only buy a camera if it has stereo mic and a very good video. x100s video won for me vs OMD because of better low light image and color. Yes, you really have to make sure there is no shake and don't shoot 60fps. 60fps produces really really bad video, just don't try it. 30fps video is the reason why i kept Fuji x100s and sold my OMD. OMD gave me a very steady and sharp video but I found color to be better with x100s and less noise. ... show more
