Fuji X100

The Fujifilm X100 series (spanning the original X100 through X100VI) generates intense loyalty and emotional attachment among owners. Users consistently praise the cameras' aesthetic, minimalist design and the joy of shooting with them. Multiple commenters describe the X100F and older models as producing images with a special character, with one saying the original X100 'captures moments so nicely.' The photography experience is repeatedly contrasted with smartphones—while phones are acknowledged as 'good enough' for most situations, the X100 offers a tactile, intentional shooting experience that users find more satisfying. Film simulation recipes are a popular topic, with users sharing custom settings. Price is a major pain point: several users express sticker shock at newer models' costs, with comments like 'Sony has lost their mind with that price' (comparing competitor pricing) and noting the X100VI costs more than entry medium format. Used older models (X100T, X100F) are frequently recommended as affordable alternatives. Some users note the fixed 35mm lens is limiting, and that smartphones surpass the camera in convenience and most everyday scenarios. The X100 is described as a secondary or specialty camera rather than a primary tool—best for travel, street photography, and personal enjoyment rather than professional work. Several commenters mention emotional connections to their cameras, including inheriting them from family members.
