Fujifilm X Series X100F

Beautiful design ; Hybrid viewfinder ; Excellent image quality ; Bigger battery ; Film simulation modes

ISO dial not that practical ; 1080p video only

With the X100F, Fujifilm has pretty much made the perfect enthusiast compact camera. While on the face if it little appears to have changed, the X100F heralds the biggest set of improvements yet, making the X100F the camera we always wanted the X100 to...

Crisp wide-angle lens. Bright f/2 aperture. In-lens ND filter. Fast autofocus. Hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder. Focus select joystick. 1/4,000-second leaf shutter. Physical control dials. Film Simulation modes. Wi-Fi.

Lens lacks stabilization. Video limited to 1080p. Sometimes struggles with tracking subjects.

The Fujifilm X100F is the best entry in the series yet thanks to refined controls and a big upgrade in image quality with a 24MP image sensor that delivers better autofocus and high ISO performance. The unique hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder set...

Outstanding image quality in all types of scenes ; Minimal noise in photos shot at high native ISO settings ; Prime f/2 lens produces very sharp detail in images ; 91-point AF mode is upgrade over X100F's predecessor ; Full manual control modes,...

Camera's operational aspects are a little quirky; it takes some practice to use this model efficiently ; Lack of a mode dial may confuse some photographers at first ; Combination shutter speed/ISO dial is odd, but it's functional once you get the hang...

The Fujifilm X100F is a camera that has some design oddities, along with a really high price. But for the right photographer, its high-quality images and sharp f/2 prime lens is going to give you images that you can't easily duplicate with other...

Unique hybrid viewfinder is amazing ; Enhanced autofocus system with easy-to-use focus lever to rear ; Great lens and image quality ; Solid build quality ; Electronic shutter is near-silent (up to 1/32 ; 000th sec)

It's really expensive ; Close-up focus won't produce sharp shots at wider apertures ; 35mm equivalent lens won't suit all ; Still no vari-angle screen or touch controls ; Still no true ISO 100 sensitivity

The Fujifilm X100F produces excellent photos and the updated autofocus system is a great improvement. Plus, it improves on the control layout and retains the manual-optimized shooting design and fast lens that have made it a favorite.

Sad battery life.

An advanced compact for wide-angle and manual-photography fans, the Fujifilm X100F improves upon an already great camera with better autofocus performance and a fine-tuned design on top of its already excellent photo quality.

Sharp, bright 23mm lens ; Excellent high ISO performance ; Compact size and solid build ; Fast autofocus

Fixed focal length might occasionally frustrate ; No 4K video recording

If you don’t need the flexibility of interchangeable lenses, then this stunner is the best street shooter around
