A few more photos. Still learning...

Wotancraft, the desk on which James creates his straps...



Unicycles galore....





Light switches...



Building.



Trying some geometric shapes.



The X-100, almost perfect. Fuji original half case, Gordy's wrist strap with wrist pad, Fuji filter adapter and lens hood and B+W Digital Pro UV filter. Waiting for a camera case from Wotancraft.

Nice composition  :thumbsup:

An acquaintance bought an M9 titanium and S2 recently. He must a be a newbie photographer or something, but he can't convince me that X100 is an inferior tool of photography.

Not all photographic equipments are inferior, depends on who is the photographer.
If a pro photographer equipped with a PNS, I believe he can take better pictures as compared with a newby using the latest dSLR. But the pro's pics is limited to the PNS function as the dSLR has more functions.

Just my 2 cents of opinion. Peace.

brolex/ Sid Vicious,

Your portraits and landscapes are alright, but seriously I reckon the x100 brings out your natural knack for abstract shots. The last set, especially the workdesk shot, is absolute ace :thumbsup:

GlySinn,

Nope have not received the bag from WotanCraft, as they are busy working on some new straps. They will be creating a bag specifically for the X-100. At the moment I am using the Crumpler Bundle (L). IT will fit the X-100 with filter adapter and hood and the Fiji X-100 half case (and wrist strap). It can be belt mounted. The other option is the bag by KATA but it is a bit tight. I prefer the Crumpler.

Surprise to see that Fujifilm X100 was better than the Leica M9 in this review:
http://snapsort.com/compare/Fujifilm_FinePix_X100-vs-Leica_M9
And macro doesnt seem to be a strong point in rangefinder!

X100 is not a range finder and range finder can't do macro and range longer then 135mm...
to me, it's 2 different type/class of camera.. no doubt, x100 has good IQ but m9 has much better details when pair with a good leica lens ;)

Thanks, but, you probably appreciated that I were refering to the M9 ........... which I had tried over the weekend at Avenue K ;) ;)

Hehe...not really because i owned a X100 (sold it to fund for a m6 last 2 weeks) and m9 as well ;) Just my direct feedback  ;)

x100 produces very good IQ given the price tag  :thumbsup:
