Fujifilm X100
By Brian Jones
With a classy retro design, the Fujifilm X100 combines all the great traditional aspects of film with modern digital advancements. Its APS-C CMOS sensor and large aperture F2 lens allows you to take pictures similar to those of a 35mm, soft and out-of-focus if you choose. The hybrid viewfinder is unlike any other you’ll find in a compact digital camera, switching between optical and electronic modes. The HD movies it records are sharp and smooth, and we appreciated the built-in miniature HDMI connector to hook it up to a TV. A unique, sophisticated camera for the serious photographer, the Fujifilm X100 costs $1,189.46 and delivers advanced features.
