For and against

Having got back into photography after many years away, I bought into Nikon thinking more kit would lead to better photographs. A few years later I decided to change to mirrorless and swapped to Fujifilm.

All the time I found myself wanting a camera I could take anywhere, which resulted in me buying an early Fujifilm X100. I used it alongside my Fujifilm X- Pro models, but found I was picking up the X100 more and more.

I love to take photos to remind myself of my life and travels. The X100F is the perfect camera for the job, being small and discreet. It captures amazing JPEGs and the fact all the controls are accessible on top of the camera, without having to delve into the menu is great. If you only want one camera, this has got to be the one you choose. Better still, it’s very affordable on the used market.
