    Hello from UK - x100

    Hi I guess I'm a seasoned amateur photographer as I've been photoraphing for over 60 yrs. (box camera, et al to the x100).

    I've had my X100 about 10 days & am reasonably familiar with it now. It's a fantastic camera, excellant lens & the low noise at high iso settings is out of this world! I'm still getting used to using iso 1600 + with impunity, even for A4 prints.

    Once I got used to the 28mm fixed lens, it's been able to do everything I throw at it, so far. I look at some of the photos other users have taken and can only say they are fantastic.

    Cheers for now, Glyn

    Hiya Glyn, greetings from blustery Scotland.
    Do show us what you've been throwing at it - it's all about the pictures here! Have a look at the Salon Challenge, open to all, runs for 2 weeks and the latest one has only just begun.
    Happy shooting,

    Thanks Heather,
    Once my forum & X100 confidence levels build up, I'll certainly do that.

    Hi Glyn

    Another X100 user here. I look after Panasonic and Fuji at Park cameras so if you are ever in the area pop in and say hello.

    Glyn, thanks so much for jumping right in with your introduction - and I can't wait to see you X100 photographs. I'm an X100 shooter myself.

    Welcome!

    Thanks everyone who posted for the warm welcome - very much appreciated. A lot of the X100 photos I've done so far have been merely to explore the cameras capabilties. Very impressed! I have taken some pukka photos, printed some on A4 colour, and have reduced their size to approx 300 kb with a view to putting them on the forum. Believe it or not, I don't know how to do this. So I'll search around the forum - bound to be some info on this somewhere.
    Thanks again, Glyn

    Hello and welcome Glyn. No X100 here so I will have to live vicariously through you and others.. do share when you feel up to it!
