The third revision of Fujifilm's popular X100 and X100S cameras has been revealed as the Fujifilm X100T, featuring a refined design, new controls and an updated hybrid viewfinder, all built around the same great 16 megapixel X-Trans II sensor and compact 23mm f/2.0 lens.
The X100 has never claimed to be the best camera, nor the most versatile. It does a few things, and it does them very well. Fujifilm introduced the latest X100T with: "The thrill of control. The passion for shooting." and that's essentially what the camera is all about. It's a compact camera with a large sensor, a brilliant fixed 23mm (equivalent to 35mm) lens, manual control dials for aperture and shutter speed, and the excellent optical/electronic hybrid viewfinder. If this sounds great to you, then read on for all the details of the latest X100T.
New Features
- Advanced hybrid viewfinder with a new option to overlay a zoomed in view of the focussing area during optical viewfinder moment, enabled with left press of the front dial.
