Taken with Nikon D3300 fitted with AI 1:1,4 Nikkor old school lens, which was taken from this camera body.
Mini Review:
RX1 is better in pretty much every possible way. (It better be! It's over 2x the price!)
The Zeiss 35mm F2 is a gem, it is sharp wide open, even in macro mode. X100 is a little soft at F2, especially in stronger light, and VERY soft/hazy when in macro mode. The Zeiss renders bokeh beautifully- smooth and buttery.
I love love love RX1 colors, even more so than my D800. The shallow depth of field along with the microcontrast really create a 3D pop effect; I think it is because the areas of focus have more contrast and saturation than the out of focus areas. X100 seems almost flat and lifeless in comparison (To be honest, I never liked the liked the Fuji color much to this day, even after seeing the newer Fuji cameras).
RX1 has better AF performance overall. It is not necessarily faster than X100, but it is far more accurate. I almost never get a mis-focused shot if the camera tells me it's locked on. I can't say the same about X100, I don't know how many times the camera has told me it's locked but the picture is actually back focused. X100 is a bit snappier in daylight, but in lowish to very low light, X100 really struggles and hunts a lot. Even with the AF lamp on, the X100 most of the time will not focus properly, or takes a very longgggggggggggggggg time. RX1 is not a low light beast either, but with the AF lamp, most of the time it will hunt a bit and finally find focus.
ISO performance winner is RX1. It is a low light monster in combination with the F2 lens. Photos at ISO 6400 are very usable for me, and thus I have no problem leaving Auto ISO at 6400. I'm not very picky about ISO, so for facebook and blogging, even 25600 will be ok.
I have to admit I love the retro look of X100, which is why I even got it in the first place. The RX1, though simple and functional, looks like every other point & shoot camera on the market, and lacks personality in the design.
Both cameras have great, intuitive layout, but the RX1 offers more button customization. The AEL, Fn, and 4 way pad can all be custom set, whereas only the RAW and Fn buttons can be set on the X100.
Build quality wise the RX1 is a notch better, it just feels like a solid block of metal. X100 is solid too but the top plate feels slightly hollow and the back buttons feel too plasticy compared to the rest of the camera, Also, RX1 buttons have the letters etched in, so it will never rub off.
This is it for now.
This is my dear compact cassette recorder I used in class last millennium!!
This photo is a composite of 7 files. The lighting is from a ring light.
HcT!!!
new canon 760d body coming this April. This will be my next canon camera and I will be upgrading from my 600d .
Had camera for so time now and very pleased with both the camera and my results
I went shooting with this beauty today. Pending a successful first roll of film, it will be my newest film SLR.
While in Seoul, we happened upon the used camera store district (I'm going to plead the 5th on whether I 'accidentally' brought us to this area of town or not). Regardless, I spotted a shop with two black paint M6's for sale, and although I had no intention of buying one, I made the mistake of inquiring about them anyways. And just like that, I bought myself an M6 and a Voigtlander 35/1,4 Nokton Classic SC. The combo set me back a whopping 1.8 Million Korean Won (it sounds more impressive when you use that currency), which worked out to around 1700 dollars.
The worst part was that the store wouldn't accept credit cards at that price (tax evasion!), so I had to go to a bank machine to withdraw 180 x 10,000 Won notes. The stack of bills was about 2 inches thick.
I've run two rolls through it, and am waiting for the lab to process them. Some analog goodness to come soon!

West Midlands Travel Limited Dennis Trident (SFD334BR21GX31570) / Alexander ALX400 (0058/78) H47/28F 4202 - Y808TOH.
New to West Midlands Travel Limited July 2001.
Cinder Bank, Netherton, West Midlands.
A closer view of 4202's dashboard. Everything in it's place and a simple layout. It still bugs me that Dennis vehicles are not fitted with engine or gearbox temperature gauges. The red light on the bottom left indicates the door interlock system is locked. A new feature which has been fitted to virtually all vehicles within the fleet and to be perfectly honest is a pain in the neck.

Airport decor wall signs make ample use of the ampersand - many non-grocery areas have been renamed as "something & something". Most other major signs consist of two words, with alternating blue and gray similar to this one. Very cool and effective, though there are two or three very curious exceptions! Was a little bit disappointed once I figured out that corrugated-looking background is 100% fake though :P

This Ektanar was taken from the Kodak Signet 50 rangefinder. Lens has very yellow elements, a sign that the glass used rare earth elements and is likely radioactive. Very nice little lens.

I should have used a smaller lens; the kit lens, F 24-105mm L lens, covers the camera logo and model number as well as more of my face.... which is a good thing given the number of "experience lines" that I have earned over the years.
This is image 1 of my 365 series for the year. I haven't attempted one of these since I started on flickr on 2008, but now that I'm not working I have a chance at actually succeeding. Don't worry, it won't feature endless self portraits - I'm not that self centered :)
The Coronet 3-D is a stereo camera that was manufactured in England c1954. It's made of bakelite and takes 127 film. The little knob to the upper left of lens #1 allows that lens to be blocked in order to take single pictures (as opposed to stereo pairs). As you can see, this model has a binocular viewfinder, but there was another model (made of mottled plastic) with a single viewfinder.

A circuit board from a Betamax video recorder stripped down last year. Flash fired from behind board, gelled blue and on the lowest power setting.
I do like this and can see me looking for others electronics to strip down!
Strobist: SB910, 1/128, 24mm and gelled blue. Fired from directly behind board.
