Re: OT - more Fuki X100 details

I like the looks of the Fuji/Fuki camera. The only lack is the missing optical rangefinder. Add that and it would go against the Panasonic/Leica unit. Perhaps we will also see an updated version later with interchangeable leaf shutter digital lenses. That would be quite nice. Sincerely, Col

Yep, strangely I can't see myself using m43 bodies (marketed until now of course) but this Fuji camera really has something for it. And what I saw and tried at Photokina certainly do make things even worse. TLRs/enlargers will be enough for me the time to come though... 2011/1/5 Boris Liberman :
