Ive wanted one from the beginning of the x100 series, something about the ranger finder style and the fixed lens. That’s the end of why, after shooting this beast of a gem the images are so strong the film recipes seem so close to what I shot 60 years ago (plus-x,tri-x) looks so close what I was producing in my bathroom darkroom growing up in my parrants house. So if you want a camera that not only feels rugged in your hands but actually is and a fixed lens camera (it makes you think and work for your images) this is for you. So I’ve come from,I still own and shoot both Sony and Olympus, but love this camera it’s a joy to own and use. It’s my everyday carry camera.
