Great camera with some work-arounds.
Great camera. I had the X100S and mistakenly sold it, a while back. Love the Fuji color and subject definition. Having used the X100F for a couple of weeks now here are some of my observations.
1. Great portability. However, adding the JJC lens hood (I added the hood and a B+W UV filter) and this makes quite a difference in the size of the camera. I also purchased a Crumpler 3 million dollar home bag and the camera is a very tight fit w/lens hood on. You will need a larger bag, in MHO.
2. Image quality is superb, you just need to be mindful that there is no stabilization.
3. No weather sealing is a miss by Fuji for sure.
4. I added a Lensmate thumb grip. I researched many thumb grips and the Lensmate, while more expensive, allows it to be folded during use so you have access to the AEL/FL button.An absolutely essential addition to camera control.
5. Additionally, I purchased a soft shutter button from Lensmate as well and again this piece is very important for my control and ease of use.
6. Not for sports photography! All 10 of my grandkids play sports and I use my Olympus OM D M-5Mk2 for their sports photos.
7. Cropping pictures in general seems to be viable for enlarging subjects w/o much if any degradation in photo.
8.Use of the EVF in bright sun light can be difficult as your eye placement on the finder is easily washed out by son and reflection and the EVF display goes away. Simply need to be aware. problem.
9. Picture film options are numerous and excellent.
10. Not a fan of plastic battery/SD covers but, oh well.
11. Customization options is excellent.
12. Appears to be solidly well built and is substantial.
As I am now in my 70's I (like many others) wanted a good travel camera with excellent IQ.
Sorry for the length of this review and hope it helps.
Cheers!
