The newly-developed X-Trans CMOS II sensor has built-in Phase Detection pixels which provide the X100S with the world’s fastest AF in as little as 0.08 seconds (*1).

*1 Fujifilm research as of November 2012. Compared with other compact digital cameras equipped with an APS-C sensor and a non-interchangeable lens based on CIPA standards and conducted in High Performance mode.
Jeez, never satisfied huh?I find its a pity they didn't improve the rear LCD screen. Otherwise it's pretty interesting now they have the worlds fastest AF, I wondering if it tracks though!
That's kind of how I feel about the announcement. Then again, I've been using the JPEGs out of my X10 happily, so I reckon it's not that big of a deal, though losing RAW support in the X100s is.Both cameras are highly interesting for me, only I will not buy them as long as there is no RAW support in Aperture - which so far not even supports XPro1 and X10
You and me both bud - it's now the bottom line for me - no Aperture, no buy. It's just too much of a hassle to change.Both cameras are highly interesting for me, only I will not buy them as long as there is no RAW support in Aperture - which so far not even supports XPro1 and X10
HI AminFrom Fujifilm.eu:
Dammit - of course - those Sigmas . . . but they aren't quite APS/c are they? Whatever, not an AF challenge I understand :ROTFL:Yes Jono, there's a series of cameras from a well known (budget) lens manufacturer, but AF speed...
The RX100 is certainly smaller, but also a totally different style of camera compared to the X20, and it lacks a viewfinder.Actually, I'm sounding sarcastic - these sound like good cameras. Although i guess the Sony RX1 and RX100 are pretty tight competition (smaller cameras with bigger sensors).
all the best

Hi JorgenThe RX100 is certainly smaller, but also a totally different style of camera compared to the X20, and it lacks a viewfinder.
50% more pixels? That's 22.5% more linear resolution. Big deal. The RX1 does offer slightly less DOF wide open of course, which can sometimes be useful, but I'm not even sure that I would prefer the Sony if the two cameras were sold at the same price.
