- Why did I buy it? My friend had bought one and let me inspect it. It felt robust and the overall build quality seemed good. I realized my SLR film camera was going to be impractical in future, unless I was processing the film myself. In addition, the Fuji X10's smaller size seemed desirable compared to the SLR camera. The zoom lens has good specs with its f:2.0 @ 28mm and I managed to get a few good test pictures on auto setting just by pointing and shooting even when the light was poor. - What I like most about it: The aspherical zoom lens, which in my opinion, is really great and covers the most common motives. Also the macro is fantastic on the X10 where one is able to get as close as one half of an inch of the subject. The built in flash, which is handy for "fill in"; when the subject is back lit. The vast amount of settings which is possible (probably a bit of a learning curve before they are all mastered). - What I dislike about it: As it turned out, the build quality had a shortcoming. The shutter release button base is made of plastic, and it broke one my friends X10. So I need to be careful and not to use the soft release button which came with my camera. Around the Internet, people says that there is problem with the image sensor in that light reflected from surfaces tends to be burned out and loose details. The phenomena is referred to as "orbing" or "blooming". However, newly produced cameras probably has another sensor than the cameras which was produced from the start. I have not experience to much problem in this regard. The battery capacity is rather "meager" and you need to have an extra at hand at all times so as not to run out of juice. All in all, however, I think the X10 is a good camera.Read full review
A useful all rounder- the X10 offering style- with a fast lens,good stabilizer and decent image quality. Those looking to make LARGE prints might want to look elsewhere due to the mediocre resolution by today's standards- but good optical performance and good colour balance ( and higher DR in 6mp mode) makes the best of what it has. If budget allowed- the X30's high-resolution viewfinder and much improved AF performance might be the way to go- but if you're in no hurry- a useful second-hand buy at sub- £150... if a fully functioning, cared for example...

I bought this as a camera that I can take with me everywhere I go. It fits snugly in my coat pocket, it's a bit bulkier than it looks in photos. It is easy to use in EXR automatic mode as a point and shoot camera, but it has many other modes and features which repay study - I recommend buying Alexander White's book on this camera, which really covers all its features and potential. It's extremely well built and feels solid, the controls are firm and well placed, and the image quality far exceeds expectations from a camera with a relatively small sensor of 2/3 inch. The various film simulations are great, results are good under most conditions, and it's fun to use. My other camera is a Fujifilm XE-2s which has a much bigger sensor, but with its 18-55 mm kit lens it's not pocketable, so I don't take it everywhere, I only use it when I am going somewhere to take photos, so I use the little X10 far more often.Read full review

I read all the reviews of course before I bought it. It has lived up to expectations too. Has a bit of a learning curve (which I am still on) and as I bought it used some parameters had been set up already. Took me a while to realise I was shooting RAW and converting in-camera. Once I changed the setting everything started to fall into place. Amazing construction, very tactile and packed with useful features and performance. Bought a half-leather case from rokkor999 on ebay and it completes the retro look. Looks like you dropped a grand on it. Picture quality is incredible... Nothing negative to say. Battery life isn't amazing but spares are small and cheap and I got 2 with my purchase. Manual zoom of the lens of course - not motorised/stepped but this just improves the handling. The only issue is, I am looking at my Lumix GH2 and wondering if I should join the Fuji eco-system instead. Had written them off as a manufacturer although my first digi-cam was a Fuji 602 which was brilliant and I made 10x8 prints from that '3MP' beauty. If you are wondering whether you should - don't - just get it. If you have grown up with manual cameras you'll love the feeling this camera gives you - with no compromises. I can't imagine what they'll do next. Will the X20 be even better?Read full review
Fine Japanese build quality with useful leather case. Light and easy Leica like to hold Clever turn on by rotating lens short zoom but excellent lens images can be enlarged considerably Controls fall easily to hand with programmeable Function button Finder is glass with no information which is only available on back screen Closeups are only possible on back screen due to possible parallax error Like most digital cameras metering and light balance can go wrong but have not found the doughnut highlights that reviewers have reported There are several professional review about that you should read before purchase
