šŸ„° I remembered how much I loved the X100 seriesā€¦ Probably the camera(s) I miss the most.

two people in a very old part of town, old wall and stairs.

an incredible piece of street art, a building-high image of a lady.

two tourists pull a trolley.

the word ā€œloveā€ is visible from inside a moving car.

a nun waits at a busy subway station.

a yellow tram.

@maique They look like your photos now, but I think you use heavy filters for that. Anyway, those were great shots!

@dominikhoecht Thanks. I looked for darker situations too. I used their Chrome simulation almost exclusively, and underexposed a lot.

@maique I love my Fujifilm What I don't love nowadays is the hassle of downloading photos. It's always a pain.

@maique oh and the weight. I am starting to envy those Ricoh GR III users. its half the weight!

@pcora The X100 was light, no issues with weight for me. The form factor was also great, I could easily stuff it in a small pocket, or bag. The Q is longer, does not work as well. As far as dowloading photos, I'll just use the SD card cable for the iPhone. Not perfect, but quite nice.

@pcora Their app is terrible (though I still admit to using it) but they did just create a new version. Sadly, my camera is too old for it but if yours is newer it might be worth checking out.

@maique Iā€™ve always wanted to try the X100 because of how many photographers love it.

@gregmoore I LOVED it. Had a few of the models, then gave up when I got the Q. I love this one, but not a day goes by when I don't think about that other one. Perfect size, perfect focal distance. It was awesome. One day...

@maique Iā€™m still shooting with my ā€œbudget Leicaā€ (An ancient Fuji X-E2 with a 35mm 1.4f prime.) My issue it rarely the camera and more it being too big to have on me all the time.

@gregmoore @maique selling my X100t was the worst camera decision I've ever made. I still have a Ricoh GR as my pocket camera (and I thought it would be better as it's smaller) but there's just something about the x100 line.

@ChrisJWilson Yes! Same. I had early GR models, then moved to the X100, and it was love at first sight. I'll get another one some day. @gregmoore

@pimoore Thank you. Now that I've gone this back in the archive, I'm sure a few more will end up here.

@maique To be honest, I miss film.

@alexink Hmmmmm... Can't say that I feel the same. Film needed processing, it was a pain. Film "ended", meaning you could only shoot how much you carried, and had chemicals to process. It was castrating, in a way.

@maique I guess as an amateur having fun and doing this as a hobby, it was different for me. It was all part of the whole artistic thing for me, processing and messing around. Where as I can understand as a pro photographer, doing all that would be just annoying.
