Got this near mint Fujifilm X Series X10 12.0MP Digital Camera from Japan. Easy to use but does take some time getting use to Fujifilm system as I am a Canon camera user. Despite some minor scratches, the product looks good as new tbh. The film simulation is such a great tool. Haven’t gotten to use it extensively, but as far as it goes, I’m enjoying using this camera so much.

Cult classic, but you can beat its specs with wider and faster lenses in the Panasonic Lumix LX series. A used Lumix LX 3 goes from $50 to $100 depending on accessories, condition; LX 5, bumps that another $50 and the same for the LX 7. LX 100 would start around $200 but anything under $350 is reasonable. I say that comparing the similar sized LX series dollar for dollar to the Fuji X10 -- well you are going to pay a premium for the pleasure of owning one. And the LX series offers EVF and optical view finders as well as an 18 mm lens attachment -- although there often are as pricey as the cameras themselves. I outfitted my Fuji X10 with retro accessories: leather roll film holder converted to hold data chips; Takumar lens shade case now holds batteries

The Fuji X10 is a terrific companion to my X100! A little smaller and lighter, it works well on my twice daily dog walks. My Standard Poodle, Calypso, has her own Facebook page and I have to keep it stocked with photos or her fans complain. I use the Fuji X100 as my main camera, but on occasion I need the reach of a longer lens than the 35mm prime on the X100. The X10 answers the call nicely. The controls are familiar to Fuji owners and while the DOF and bokeh can't match the X100, for the purposes of posting on the web, the X10 is great. Another big plus is the Fuji colour palette. You can tell Fuji green the minute you see it. The X10 is Fuji's attempt to offer an intermediate step between their point-and-shoot cameras and their more advanced cameras, geared to serious amateurs and professional photographers. The optical viewfinder on the X10, for example. is clearly meant to appeal to photographers who want that feature. Not as useful as the amazing hybrid viewfinder on the X100, it does zoom as the lens zooms and shows about 85% of the actual frame - which is decent, if not great. It does serve, however, to keep your eye focused on the subject and not on the LCD. This is my only caveat. If you're not an experienced photographer, the Fujifilm X10 may prove to be a puzzle. You can, of course, set the camera on auto everything and snap away. The results will be fine. But you'll find yourself wondering what all the other stuff does and might get a little frustrated. The user guide doesn't offer much help. Fujifilm's manuals are sketchy, to say the least. For the point-and-shoot user, however, willing to pay a premium and undertake the learning curve, the Fujifilm X10 is a great choice.Read full review
As a film camera user for many years I had come to appreciate cameras with robust construction, excellent optics and high image quality. I believe the X10 represents the finest overall concept, construction and image quality in a fixed lens compact digital camera attainable in 2011 technology. A rather serious photo quality issue of the appearance of orbs in specular highlights has now been resolved with the development of a new sensor, appearing in later production. My X10 delivers results comparable to my mid-range 2009 DSLR in many situations, and has become my camera of preference. I highly recommend it for someone wanting a deeply specified non-system camera for fine jpeg imaging. The EXR sensor can bring incredible dynamic range and low light results at 6 MP. Raw shooters at full 12MP resolution may have quibbles, since Fuji has not developed a strong plug-in for Photoshop, Aperture, and other major photo editors. The X10 in-camera raw converter does an excellent job but is much more limited. The only performance problem I have experienced is the occasional failure to achieve focus for no reason, when the subject seems to have easy focus points of contrast. Aside from this occasional hiccup, I find the X10 a perfect companion for my own travel, family events and landscape work.Read full review
A Photograher's camera. I have, for the last 30 years, been an affectionado of the SLR camera (entirely as an amateur). As we progressed from film to digital, I was a relatively early adopter, buying a Canon G1 in 2000 - the first serious low light capable P&S in my experience. Years on, I have returned to the SLR format in digital form (currently a D3100,18-105mm), but have always appreciated the need for & advantages of the pocketable P&S. Recently, on the first day of her trip to the USofA, my 5 yr old daughter, had an unfortunate accident; dropping my near new Lumix LX5 into the fish pond. (if compact quality is your priority - buy an LX5 - the X10 is bulkier) Now I had an excuse to buy the camera I actually wanted. One with a real zoom lens, one with a real view finder. Although the LX5 was a wonderful machine (until immersed in dirty water for several minutes), producing beautiful low noise images, the rocker zoom and complete lack of a view finder made lust for the X10. I snagged my new X10 for a bargain - $420.(ex demo) A lot has been made of the noise performance and the innovative EXR array sensor, designed to address the issues of noise and dynamic range, comparative to large sensor SLRs. My finding is: - leave it in full resolution in Program (&ASM) - let it do its thing with Dynamic Range (leave it in Auto) - if concerned about the light - stick it in EXR Auto mode and let it do its thing. Follow these rules (or just stick it in Full Idiot Auto)and this camera delivers beautiful images, almost indistinguishable from a quality SLR. The zoom lens is a thing of beauty, allowing you to zoom like a real camera and frame your shot as you would with an SLR. The focusing is on a par with its competitors, but still not the SLR class (not phase shift). The only disappointment of the camera is the optical view finder. Why did they bother? It looks great to view thru, but there is major parallax error, which means you don't get the frame you see - cutting the tops of people's heads off, etc. And, very importantly, you hear the beep of finding a focus - but on what? it won't be what you're looking at in many cases, rendering the optical VF practically useless. In every other way the user interface and images of this camera are excellent!Read full review
