[Leica] First Pictures with my Fuji X100

[cummer at netvigator.com (H&ECummer)]

Hi Luggers,
I know several of you use the X100 to great effect as your walk around  
camera.
I have hesitated buying one - given the bad reviews of the menus and  
operating system.
A Singapore friend passed through HK a couple of weeks ago with one  
and I used it briefly.
Had a chance to pick up a lightly used one - the present young owner  
didn't like the focus accuracy -
and here are the first results. The camera was set for velvia. I  
didn't care for the garish colours
so I have transformed the pictures into contrasty B&W using CS4.

Me at Brunch today at Stauntons bar in Soho - also taken by Ian. The  
Bloody Mary was
bloody spicy!

  Camera seems very competent - picture wise - if somewhat clumsy to  
set up.
That will be over come, I'm sure, as I plough through the instruction  
book.

C&C always welcome. Please look large.
