A lot of people are loving their X-100 from my brief conversations with friends and acquaintances. I've considered a T20. I have a Nikon D7100, Sony RX100, and a Nikon J1. The J1 was Nikon's first attempt at a mirrorless and it wasn't a very good camera. I would sell it if it weren't worth a bag of empty film canisters.

I used to be a Nikon user (D90 sits in the closet), but ever since I got the Fuji in 2014, I haven't stopped using it. It's so easy to carry around (you can see the wrist strap I have it on), and I just throw it in my wife's purse when not in use.

What really keeps me around though are the colors that you get using Fuji. I don't think I'll use a camera from any other brand, though a friend uses a Sony that is pretty impressive as well.

My daughter took this for me a couple years ago. Granted I don't often use my film cameras anymore but for posing what the heck right? So I used my F4 with vertical grip.

For what it's worth I use mainly my trusty D5 with a D4s for backup.

I'll play. My wife grabbed this shot of me on her phone when our family went to Grand Teton NP, getting ready to set up a family portrait. I swear this is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. Had my Nikon Z6 and 24-70/4 lens in this pic. It and my 300/4PF with 1.4TC were all I needed for that trip, though I often wished I had more reach.

Testing a gimbal

Avid Fuji shooter here. X100s, XH1, XPro2, XT30 and GFX50R.

All this gear plus lenses are way cheaper than watches.
