Re: Fujifilm X-100 - iPhone analogy
Now you can guess why I didnt get a Sigma DP2, no matter how impressive its low ISO resolution may be...
Even if the X100 doesnt hold as much detail as a Foveon X3 sensor or an M9 with no AA filter at base ISO, it is likely to change the way a lot of people make photographs, other manufacturers design cameras, be a success and start a new camera category.It's results have digital look like, are OK on higher ISOs, but fail to deliver details on lowest ISO (probably due to AA filter) and do not bring live, deep, clean color. That can be delivered with KODAK CCD sensor for example.
Did the iPhone become the No. 1 cell phone because it offers better reception, carrier service or even ergonomy ? Dont think so. Its all about USABILITY and in compact digicams, about getting pleasure back into the act of photographing living, breathing people no brick walls or static stuff !No doubts - X100 brings great ergonomy - big Thank You to Fuji. That makes it different from what we have on market today. In terms of quality - delivers what most of today cameras do, using recent APS-C sensors.
