FR-reader Kaushik (his facebook) shared with FR his review of the X100S. Check out the PROS and CONS list. He also posted a 7-point wish list for the X100S successor at Amazon here. (Here are some videos which he did with X100S: video 1, 2, 3)

In the last FR-reader zone Meeno asked us to “let the love affair with the [shoplink 12883]X100S[/shoplink] begin“. But FR-reader Nath remains loyal to the good old X100 and shared on the FR-facebook wall the following image, saying: “I love the way the Fuji X100 handles light! This shot was taken just after sunrise on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. f/16 – 1/500 sec – ISO 3200 (I had Auto ISO set for the earlier hours of low light and forgot it was on. However it exposed this image perfectly…clever camera).”

“Dear Patrick, I love photography and in this period I took with my Fuji X-Pro1, with the adapter for Leica lenses. These photos were taken in Florence, a wonderful city that lends itself well to street photography. I am sending you the link to my flickr account”

These are some videos which I made by using new Fujifilm X100S: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12nMvhLVsgw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNrPgVxiuaU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSqJ8BotoaU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJMgYV764No https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbniTwGxfKc
I’m not sure at this point that any review of both the X100 and X100s offers information not already known and disclosed before. I think a more useful perspective would be for someone to write about things that make cameras like the x100 a BETTER replacement or alternative to other formats like dslr, m43, FF, etc in real-world settings. Like, “Here is why I preferred the X100 over my Nikon D4 while on safari in Tanzania last month…..”.
I do love the x100s…. but I can get a 6d for about $200 more… wifi, gps, full frame, fast focusing, excellent movie mode.
x100s needs to be cheaper. I guess the short supply isn’t helping that.
By all means, do so. If that is a better camera for you, get it. You have my blessing.
I’m countering the “ditch your SLR” pushed onto us. Not pushing, myself.
