Fujifilm X10

The Fujifilm X10 ($599.95 direct) may look like an older camera on the outside, but it's a purely digital point-and-shoot with some nice features that photographers should appreciate. Along with the X100 and recently announced X-Pro1, the camera is part of Fuji's X series—a group of unique cameras that are aimed at enthusiasts. The X10 is set apart from other point-and-shoots by its larger image sensor, bright optical viewfinder, abundant physical controls, and Raw shooting capability. It doesn't manage to oust the Canon PowerShot S100 ($429.99, 4.5 stars) as our Editor's Choice for high-end compacts, but if you're looking for a zooming compact with a good optical viewfinder, the camera is worth consideration. Design and FeaturesFrom a distance, the X10 could easily be mistaken for a 1970s-era 35mm camera. Its all-black finish and optical viewfinder fit the bill, but the camera's disguise is betrayed by the modern rear LCD and an abundance of button and dials. It's a bit larger than most compact cameras, measuring 2.7 by 4.6 by 2.2 inches (HWD) and weighing in at 12.3 ounces.

Fujifilm X10 review

Sometimes you come across a camera that's as much a work of art as the pictures it produces. In this case, it's the Fujifilm X10. With a retro design, magnesium alloy body and most of the key controls moved out of the menus and onto buttons and switches scattered about the body, it's as much about the experience as it is the results.It can be bought now for £430. Fujifilm's engineers have turned back the clock with the X10, as is clear the first time you pick it up. The body is finished in the kind of leather-imprinted plastic we last saw in the late 70s. This is a good thing, both making it easy to hold and taking the chill off the metal that sits beneath it. In a retro turn, most of the controls have moved out of the menus and onto the body.The lens cap is a plain slip-on, slip-off affair, lined with a velvety cloth that's just thick enough to keep it wedged in place. You want the flash? Well pop it up yourself. Exposure compensation? That'll be the wheel on the right of the body marked out in 0.3EV steps, -/+2.0EV. There's no power switch per se. Instead, you slip off the cap and twist the lens. The lens itself pops out of its rest position with a satisfying click, simultaneously extending the glass and switching it on.

Fujifilm X10 Review

Review: The Fujifilm X10 avoids the price and complexity of its older brother the X100, while preserving the outstanding image quality, making it an outstanding compact alternative to a DSLR for both serious and photographers.Once again, Fujifilm has brought us back to the analog days with its retro-looking X-series. The new X10 is a less full-featured version of the X100 (which while impressive, bordered on overwhelming). The new iteration is far more consumer-friendly — both in terms of price and handling. Of course, that means it’s also a step backward, with some downgraded specs. But with the similar superior image quality and extensive focus on manual shooting, the X10 finds a better balance than its predecessor. Like the Fujifilm Finepix X100, the X10 doesn’t disappoint when it comes to style and design. It has the vintage look of its predecessor without quite as much bulk, making it a far friendlier fit in your hands. Still, this is by no means you’re average point-and-shoot (which should be obvious from the get-go): Its magnesium alloy and aluminum body make it much heavier than pretty much anything in this category. That said, we found the X10 much easier to carry and cart around than the X100.

Fujifilm FinePix X10

There are two ways to look at the Fujifilm FinePix X10. You can view it as a cynical attempt to capitalize on the fanboy frenzy of the X100 with a camera that looks a lot like it, but that lacks everything that made it desirable to the fans. Or you can look at it as Fujifilm's first serious entry into the enthusiast compact market, going up against stalwarts from Canon, Nikon, and Panasonic (and newcomers like Olympus), with a design and specs that don't look too shabby in that crowd. I'm taking the latter view. But despite a nice design, I think there are some practical and conceptual problems with the X10 that may turn off some photographers. For example, the camera is capable of producing some very nice photos, but it does its best low-light work in its special reduced-resolution, complete auto modes. To me, extra features on enthusiast cameras only matter when they add creative options--not when they're there to compensate for deficiencies in the hardware. And in the case of the X10, they're all automatic, which defeats the purpose of a camera ostensibly for people who want to play with the settings. And Fujifilm claims the camera goes up to ISO 12,800--but that's in an automatic, super-reduced resolution mode.

Digital Camera Reviews: Choose the Best Compact Camera

No camera maker worth its salt is without an expert compact these days. While Canon and Panasonic were for a long time the only brands in the market, other firms are now joining the party, including Fujifilm with the FinePix X10. This camera has all the features you'd expect to find in an expert compact, including loads of controls for direct access to advanced settings, a relatively compact design, good grip, an optical viewfinder and a fast lens (f/2.8 at the max. zoom setting). To that, Fuji has added a few of its own in-house specialities, namely a manual zoom function (already seen in the brand's high-end bridges) and an EXR sensor. Expert compacts—especially more classic, old-school models—are generally heavy, robust and yet still reasonably compact compared with an SLR. The hefty build is something we really felt in the X10, as although it's not the heaviest model out there (it's actually lighter than its main rivals, the Canon G12 and the Nikon P7100), but the body and, in particular, the entirely metal sole-plate give the camera somewhat indestructible feel—more so than competitor models, in any case. This impression is driven home further by the metal lens barrel, complete with mechanical control ring that doubles up as an on/off switch—a practical and pleasant addition.

Fujifilm X10 review

Fujifilm seems to believe cameras stopped getting better in about 1954, and it might be right: its high-end X-series takes its cues from the Leica cameras of decades ago, and the results have been beautiful. The X10 is a slightly more consumer-friendly (read: less expensive) model than the previously released X100, costing $599 instead of the X100’s $1,199. The look is still the same, and although the specs aren’t as impressive as the X100 they’re still high-end: f/2.0 lens, 12-megapixel CMOS sensor, optical viewfinder, and all the manual control you could need. But even at the low, low price of $599, the X10 has to compete with Micro Four Thirds and Sony’s NEX cameras, which don’t look quite as cool but shoot images and video that are hard to beat. Does the X10 measure up with the best of its competitors, and is its beauty more than skin deep? Read on for our full review. Video Review Hardware / design Did I mention the X10 is gorgeous? It nails the retro style, and it's much more reminiscent of the Leica M3 than just about any other camera out there today. (Except the X100, obviously.) The camera's black magnesium body is accented with synthetic leather, and it has a blocky, simplified look that I really like.

Fujifilm FinePix X10

It’s been a strong year for Fujifilm. They’ve launched a number of well-received higher-end shooters, including the HS20EXR and F600EXR long zooms, and especially the X100 premium compact. They’ve all had some pretty notable flaws, but each has earned a loyal fan base by following a different path than any of the bigger names in the industry. The X10 is Fuji’s latest attempt at the enthusiast photographer market. It’s basically a pared-down version of the X100, offering similar styling and design as its elder sibling, but with a much more palatable price tag. Meant to compete directly with the Canon G12 and Nikon P7100 prosumer compacts, the X10 is a retro-fied, rangefinder-esque take on this niche genre. Good looks don’t matter if the X10 turns out to be a well-designed paperweight, but Fujifilm did a great job putting together a well-rounded, highly capable advanced compact camera. Read on to see how they did it. The X10 has acceptable color accuracy, but at this price, it should be better. We measured a minimum color error of 3.41, which is disappointing, and 106% saturation, which is fine. Light blues, reds, and yellows are the most exaggerated shades, but several others are a few nibbles away from ideal levels. More on how we test color.

Fuji FinePix X10 review

Fuji created quite a stir when it released its FinePix X100 in March. The combination of a retro-styled metal body, APS-C sized sensor, fixed 23mm f/2 lens and a unique hybrid viewfinder caused plenty of interest among enthusiast and professional photographers alike.Fuji's FinePix X10 sits below the X100 in the range, sporting similar retro styling, but sacrificing the large APS-C sensor and fixed lens in favour of a 2/3inch EXR CMOS sensor and a 4x zoom lens providing an angle of view equivalent to a 28-112mm lens on a 35mm camera. An impressively bright maximum aperture of f/2-2.8 has been achieved and the zoom is operated manually, carrying on the retro theme.A positive point to glean from this specification is that the price is much more modest. Costing around £530, it is much more reasonably priced than its bigger brother, so it will be interesting to see how it fares when it comes to image quality. Fuji's EXR CMOS technology uses a different pixel arrangement to conventional image sensors. This enables the camera to either take pictures at the full 12MP resolution, or to combine neighbouring pixels to increase image quality in low light conditions.

Fujifilm X10 review

When the X100 was launched early last year, its arrival heralded a renaissance for Fujiflm in the eyes of the enthusiast photographer. Hoping to build on this is the arrival of the X100's baby brother, the Fujifilm X10. Sharing a similar retro design the X10 hopes to have even wider appeal, tempting people away from enthusiast compacts such as the excellent Canon PowerShot G12 and Olympus XZ-1. The X10 features a 12MP 2/3in EXR CMOS chip - smaller than the 12MP APS-C sized sensor found in the X100, but with a physically larger surface area than most other compact cameras. This includes the current crop of enthusiast compacts, so in theory, with larger photosites (pixels) on offer, image quality should be stronger all round.The sensor also features Fujifilm's EXR technology, so as well as using the 12MP resolution, the camera can be setup for high ISO capture, with the resolution dropping to 6MP. This works by combining neighbouring pairs of pixels to form six-million larger photosites (pixels) to increase the light gathering capabilities of the chip in low-light to deliver a cleaner image with less image noise.

Fujifilm FinePix X10

Fujifilm has had a heck of a year, releasing a handful of well-received superzooms (the HS20EXR and F550EXR/F600EXR) and a headline-grabbing prosumer compact, the X100. None of these have been perfect—actually, most of them have had serious flaws—but they’ve all earned a loyal following by doing things a little bit differently than any of the industry’s heavy hitters. They promised us more X-series cameras in the vein of the X100, and they delivered the X10, an advanced compact in the style and price range of enthusiast darlings like the Canon G12 and Nikon P7100. It’s basically a pared-down version of the X100, with a smaller sensor and more conventional viewfinder. But at half the cost (and what Fujifilm promises to be a more reliable supply chain), it’s poised to make a dent in the high-end point-and-shoot market, filling a gap for a charming, old-school, fixed-lens rangefinder-esque shooter that none of photography’s big names have yet attempted to fill—if it lives up to its photographic potential, that is. We had the chance to play around with the X10 for a few minutes at the PhotoPlus Expo in New York this week, so read on to see our first impressions.

Fujifilm X10 Hands-on Preview

The revival of the enthusiast camera sector over the past few years has been a surprising but welcome development in the industry. The widespread acclaim for the Panasonic LX3 has encouraged other manufacturers to join or re-enter the fray with high-end offerings of their own, resulting in excellent, high-spec cameras such as the Samsung TL500, Olympus XZ-1 and Canon S95. Now it's time for Fujifilm to play its hand, which it has done with its X10. Conceptually it borrows our favorite features from the two distinct sub-types that have emerged in this category - it takes the fast lens from cameras such as the TL500 and XZ-1 and combines it with the optical viewfinder and extensive controls of the Canon G12 and Nikon P7100. Just to finish things off, Fujifilm wraps the whole thing in magnesium alloy bodywork that evokes its big brother, the X100 and the 1960's rangefinders it borrowed its styling from. The X10's innards are as progressive as its exterior is staid. It features a 12MP, '2/3" type' sensor, which means it's between 26% and 40% larger than the sensors used by its enthusiast compact peers and twice as large as those used in almost all regular compacts.

Fujifilm X10

Announced today, the throwback-styled Fujifilm X10 aims to outgun competing cameras in the "premium point-and-shoot" class. Because of its size and feature set, it's more of a competitor to the larger Canon PowerShot G12 and the Nikon Coolpix P7100 than to more-compact options such as the Olympus XZ-1, the Nikon Coolpix P300, the Panasonic Lumix LX5, and the Canon PowerShot S95. The new X10 offers a larger sensor than all of the cameras mentioned above, as well as a wider aperture than all but one of them at the telephoto end of its zoom range. Like most of them, it offers full manual exposure controls, a RAW shooting mode, and a few unique extras that should make it a compelling competitor for other performance-minded (semi-)compact cameras. It's also a bit bigger than the rest of the pack, clocking in at 2.2 inches deep, 4.6 inches wide, and 2.7 inches high--more like the size of a compact interchangeable-lens camera, except with a fixed lens. In addition to its old-school aesthetics, the X10 also features an optically stabilized, manually operated 4X (28mm to 112mm) zoom lens; you twist the lens barrel to adjust focal length rather than use a powered zoom toggle. The top of the camera also hosts a dedicated exposure-compensation dial for fast adjustments.
