What are the key differences between the Fuji x100 and the x100s?

21/02/2013 By Heather

With the recent release of the Fuji x100s in Japan, one cannot help but wonder just how it compares to its predecessor, the x100, and whether it is worth swapping one for the other.

Physically, the two cameras are practically identical, featuring the same sturdy magnesium alloy build in a retro-style body and the same highly appreciated hybrid viewfinder. The only minor differences you’ll notice are the S in the logo, the RAW Q button, and the order of the focus options. Otherwise, the x100 and the x100s may as well be twins.

Take a trip into the inner workings of the x100s, however, and you’ll see why so much buzz has been surrounding its release.

The new Fuji x100s hits Japanese shelves

We here at MirrorLessons are terribly excited, and you should be too, as shipping of the new FujiFilm x100s has begun in Japan. According to Mirrorless Rumors, it will begin to ship in Europe and the Americas around mid-March. Can’t wait that long? Well, you could always take a look at eBay, where pre-sale x100s have been popping up all over the place. Of course, being a pre-sale item, Japanese resellers have hiked up the price in the hope that mirrorless camera fanatics worldwide (hey, don’t look at us!) will jump the gun and purchase one. Now all we are waiting for is the new Fuji x20. Hopefully, its release won’t be far behind the x100s.
