Congrats on the new addition, I am sure you will love it and hope to see some pics from it soon. I don't have an X100 but do have an XP1 and X20. I use the hood on the XP1 but never on the ax20, namely bc of the portability issue. The XP1 is on my neck or in a bag anyway but I like being able...

Flysurfer, thank you! It was the removal of the SD card. i was shooting various ISO, NR, and DR test shots so i was ejecting the card to upload each series...occasionally, i would turn the camera w/o the memory card which is when the camera changed to 'S' mode. Mystery solved!!

I just picked up my X20 the other day and have begun to determine the best setup for my needs. One aspect I haven't changed is the resolution, yet I find the camera changes to 2048x1536 resolution without my input...is anyone else noticing this with their cameras? If so, think this is an early...

I placed my order on Amazon US on feb 6th, and when I emailed about an update last week, was told it would still be delivered within the March-April timeframe but they upgraded me to free 2-day shipping to 'compensate' for the uncertainty/inconvenience. Two days later my arrival window got...

No more than the lens already obstructs...another great reason to check out the step-up ring...

I had the Marumi 40mm on my X10, which I sold in anticipation of the X20. The filter was good but I had a stack of 46mm B+W filters, including a UV, which I really preferred to use and decided to try a Heavystar 40-46mm step-up ring (avail on Amazon or eBay) and that really is a STELLAR set-up...

XP1 actually replaced my 5D and I only have the 35mm right now. Will eventually get the 56mm when it's released and possibly a wider lens or X100s to round out the kit. I also had an X10 (now waiting for the X20 to be shipped to me) as a companion camera. This replaced the Canon and the two...

If I might ask, where are you located (US?) and when did you put n your order? I still haven't heard a peep for amazon...

Wow very cool, I did not realize the Merlin connection there. My fixed gear is a plain jane felt cromo frame I put together with old parts...and a Chris King headset for a little bling ;) a friend of mine convinced me to get a specialized roubaix a couple years ago and that's my road...

Ray, Btw, that is hardcore!! I only put on about 3000 miles a year as I don't really like to ride in the winter (spin classes then). You ever do any centuries or other organized rides on the east coast? Last one for me was the Seagull and I am thinking about the Civl War century this fall...

What frame is that? Looks nice! And do I see a Chris King headset on there :) my handlebar bag is very similar in size.

Agree with all the 'less is more' comments but would emphasize that extra batteries are a good idea...Almost a must if you snap a bunch and/or use fill-flash frequently. My 'essential' lightweight setup includes the following: (1) GGS 3" screen protector (minimal degradation and preserves...

Hi dannykap, I actually just posted some insight about my experience with the X10 and cycling in the 'X20 and RX100 - subjective POV' thread which may be helpful. As for skiing, I've used both the S90 and X10 on the slopes and that would be where the smaller camera has a slight advantage, IMO...

As a fellow cyclist and former X10 owner (sold it and pre-ordered the X20), thought I'd offer my insight... I am on my bikes a lot, particularly when going out around town on my fixed gear to take pictures. When I still had my X10, I had it wrapped in my Gariz half case and Gun Shot strap which...

It would be nice if something came out tho...with Nikon's Coolpix A announcement (which only really caught my eye bc of the small size), I think Fuji would knock it out of the park with a compact mid-level camera either: - a fixed lens compact with an APS-C sensor and X10/20 styling. No hybrid...
