Thanks for the review. Often, your “night shot” pictures of camera reviews, including this review, are not shown. Right clicking to “show picture” does not bring the pictures back. Also, your link next to “Home”, for “Digital Camera Reviews” leads to a blank page (at least for the last couple days. Thanks

I held this camera in Jessops a few days ago. It’s truly a beauty. Been waiting for the reviews ever since.

Thanks for the comprehensive review… I already owned both X100 and X10, but was still looking for a pocketable compact.  My options were either XF1 or F800EXR.  After a trial at the shop I eventually opted for the latter… the difference in picture quality was not really that significant and the wifi function of F800EXR made the difference.  Its also cheaper too.  Yet I must say both are very good (and beautiful) cameras.

The review is incorrect in the detail where it says the playback mode is not available unless you have the camera fully turned on.
Playback mode is also available if you push and hold the playback button when the lens is completely retracted, and when its in standby mode.
Thats said, thanks for a good review!

One of the reasons I rarely read your reviews anymore is because of a certain (positive) bias in virtually all of your camera reviews.

In this one, am I supposed to believe that 8 seconds is “good news” for night photographs?  This is ONLY 8 seconds and is an expensive camera.  Shouldn’t we say that 30 secs to a minute is good to excellent news for night photography?  Duh!

Seems a good review to me.  Still loving my Fuji x100 to be honest although would love a decent small pocketable camera for nights out- currently using a Canon Ixus 220 for this.  This Fuji looks slightly too big (and expensive) for this purpose, but stylish to say the least!
As for Irq’s comment above; he can’t even spell properly and hasn’t backed up his comment so am totally disregarding it.

I cannot find any contact information for you. Just an FYI, a Vine reviewer on Amazon has plagiarized your review. I have notified Amazon, but it might be a good idea if you contact them as well.  Here is a link to the review:

Good spot Jenn.  I agree with you and have posted to that effect and contacted Amazon re the matter via the report abuse link.

The slowest shutter speed is not 8 seconds it is 30. Read the manual.  Also I cant’ understand all the guff about the manual zoom and the on/off method.  I guess some people just have to show off their writing skills and say something against everything.  It only takes a few uses to get used to the turning of the lens barrel and it is much better than having the lens sticking out 3/4” all the time.  The lack of an on/off switch is a trade off for having a camera to stick in your pants pocket.

Ok review.  I’ve owned this camera for two weeks and disagree with your conclusion that it begs for a viewfinder and it’s quirky on/off system.  Your comments are based upon your subjective thoughts as a “Photographer / Reviewer”.  Remember the audience this piece is aimed at.  It’s Fuji’s attempt at a premium pocketable camera rivaling the S110 and RX100.  They have succeeded! 

I had no idea this piece was available until walking in a photo shop ready to buy the S110 or RX100 and walked out with the XF1 instead.  I love the manual control, find the on/off/standby sequence intuitive, outstanding Panorama mode and solid build quality.

Consider the target audience first them write from that perspective.  My two cents.

Great review, really appreciate when someone actually take time and explain, and as with anything else we all add our own opinion when writing. I now own the camera and is really happy about it,,, the only thing missing is a better user manual, but then again men don’t read manuals. Thanks for the review

In what opinion what is the best setting EXR AUTO or just AUTO, when I test different pictures in a normal living room without flash I think the normal AUTO is best. What is the major difference between the two settings?

thanks for the neat & accurate review! made me relieved that i didn’t buy the wrong camera.

another thing is my thank you note for fujifilm for making a strong camera. 2nd day owning this camera, i accidentally dropped it from around 5.5’ height (the camera was inside a leather bag & my thin backpack though) but it works all fine till today. (hopefully it really is ok)

If I had a choice between the X10 and the XF1
which one would you recommend that I get?
