Echoing the functional aesthetics of analogue film cameras, the \u2018manual\u2019 dials have been carefully positioned to give the photographer easy control over creative shooting. Aperture, shutter speed and exposure compensation can be checked even before the camera is turned on. The ergonomics of the design offers the perfect balance between compact convenience and user-friendly operation. Every control has been carefully considered to give the photographer fast access to aperture, shutter speed and exposure compensation, to allow maximum creative  expression with minimum hassle.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_17953\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17953\" style=\"width: 463px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-17953\" href=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/2011\/05\/25\/tasty-tech-toys-fujifilm-fine-pix-x100\/control_3\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17953\" title=\"control_3\" src=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/control_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"463\" height=\"191\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17953\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fujifilm X100<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nWhat I particularly like is the ergonomics of this camera.

This newly developed lens offers a focal length of 23mm (135  equivalent: 35mm) that lets you capture a wide range of subjects while maintaining high resolution and optical clarity. It also features a  large F2 aperture which not only delivers both ample brightness and high contrast sensitivity, but also achieves a high level of resolution when  the aperture is closed by 1 or 2 stops. In addition to this strong specification, the system design  includes an aspherical lens, a 9-blade aperture diaphragm and a built-in  ND filter. The adoption of a non-collapsible lens structure with minimised lens length not only contributes to the compact size of this model, but it also eliminates telescoping of the lens when the power is on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_17959\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17959\" style=\"width: 485px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-17959\" href=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/2011\/05\/25\/tasty-tech-toys-fujifilm-fine-pix-x100\/fujifilm-x100-top-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17959 \" title=\"Fujifilm X100 \" src=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/Fujifilm-X100-Top1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"485\" height=\"239\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17959\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fujifilm X100 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>FUJIFILM has selected this fixed focal length lens for the FinePix  X100 because this configuration consistently delivers premier image  quality in every way; from exceptional resolution and minimal  aberration, to excellent light volume in image corners.
