4 Reasons Why the Fuji X10 Isn’t Just a Fashion Accessory

“Holy crap, it’s pretty.” Those are the words right out of Copy Editor Julius Motal’s mouth when I showed him the Fujifilm X10 (or Fuji X10). Indeed, as I sat in on the conference call with Fujifilm’s reps, my mind went crazy as I got all hot and sweaty thinking 
about the naughty things I would do to it when I got my hands on it later on
 about just what the Fuji X10 might look like after talking about the specs. But underneath it all, the Fuji X10 seems to be a powerhouse on the inside.

My highlights of the article:

• Camera is sturdy.
• f2.0 to f2.8 
• Comes with 28-112mm lens. Can be used for landscapes and portraits or anything in between. Very diverse.
• Optical image stabilization in the lens.
• Best shot while auto-focusing.
• Perfect for everyday use because of its size and abilities.
• Expected to release around November 2011.

Fujifilm X10 Now $599

Fujifilm has unveiled the X10 - an enthusiast compact with a F2.0-2.8, 28-112mm-equivalent lens. It's built around a 2/3" (6.6 x 8.8mm) CMOS sensor that uses Fujifilm's EXR pixel arrangement. The 12MP sensor can produce either 12MP images in high resolution mode, under-expose half its pixels to provide 6MP images with greater dynamic range, or combine neighboring pixels for a 6MP high sensitivity mode. The X10 borrows extensively from the styling of the X100 (though its zooming viewfinder means you lose the X100's hybrid viewfinder), to give a camera that sits conceptually between the Olympus XZ-1 and the Canon Powershot G12.
