Steve Huff written a very informative review about fuifilm X100,
OK…this is the one that will cause X1 lovers to get mad at me if I say the X100 is better, and the Leica haters and X100 lovers to do the same if I say the X1 is better.
With that said, as much as I love the Leica X1 I have to give credit where credit is due. The Fujifilm X100 ROCKS and it ROCKS HARD. No, it is NOT perfect but neither is the Leica X1, or NEX-5, or E-P2, or Ricoh. What the X100 has is a combination of looks, size, performance and technology all wrapped up into one classic and sexy well built design. $1200? It’s priced right folks. Continue reading the review
Dan a Photo Rumor Reader was lucky to get Fujifilm X100, Read his FujiFilm FinePix X100 camera review:
The X100 is a blend of traditional photography shooting process and digital technology. The hybrid viewfinder makes the camera special, but it is this unique shooting experience that is unsurpassed. The camera isn’t without fault, but for me they’re not the faults that talked about in most reviews: the electronic framelines are the wrong size and manual focus is poor compared to a true manual focus rangefinder.

Fujifilm have married the best of the past, in the multitude of external controls, leaf-shutter, optical viewfinder and stunning appearance, with some cutting-edge features, most notably the hybrid optical / electronic viewfinder, which really is a revelation to use. The ability to frame your subject in not one, not two, but three different ways, each of which offers certain benefits and all housed within a compact body, makes the X100 incredibly versatile…
the Fuji X100 is a well-crafted camera with a range of useful functionality and excellent image quality. It’s only really let down by slow writing times and minor operation issues, but otherwise it truly delivers.
