Another awesome video Ross! I've had my original x100 for a few months now and finding someone like yourself highlighting the awesome images it creates is super inspiring! Hopefully see more x100 content from you in 2024!
I have my dad's black paint X100. He took thousands of family photos with it. I shoot it in monochrome-Y with a 20% cinebloom using only the OVF. I don't look at the pics until on the computer -- sorta like film. Like my dad in life, it’s stubborn but reliable, charming -- but fussy. The sum is greater than its parts. Legendary camera that started it all. I love my X100V and my monster GFX100S, but the OG X100 is part of why those later cameras even exist.
I have the original x100 that I purchased as soon as it came out. I used it extensively for years and then put it aside as other cameras came out. About 3 years ago I had it IR converted and the results are FANTASTIC. It was the first IR conversion of an original x100 the company did and they did not know how it would come out. As it turns out the lens has NO hot spots, which when present is a real problem for IR converted cameras. The facts that camera does not have hot spots and it is so pocketable are reasons people should pick up the original and get it IR converted. All the best.
I owned the X100, X100F & X100V and sold them all, but wish I would have kept the original X100... It 's such a great camera and the images I took with it are amongst my fav. If you find one now the prices are just stupid...
Hi Ross, thanks for all the brilliant x100 videos. Owned one since 2013 when you still had to sell a kidney to afford one and decided to dust it off again after 5 years of not using it. Anyway, came across your videos and they are a great inspiration and just the kick-start I needed to go out shooting again after all that time. Cheers! 😊
I still love my X100 original. It takes the best flash shots indoors with the shutter @ 1/125. It just gets the colors right. I will admit i am in love with my X-E1 a bit more right now
I owned that one and no matter what SD card I used it would very frequently lock up after taking a few pictures having to turn the camera off and back on again. Very sad and frustrating. Replaced it with a Ricoh GR and GRiiiX. I like the handling of the X100 better so I bought the X100vi

Thanks for the comment. Why did you sell them??
@@rossandhisjpegs I sold all my Fuji gear and now shoot with a Leica M10 & Q and very happy with that change.
This camera since I bought it in December 2010 is the biggest love of my life besides my wife !!😊 great shots man !!!👏
Haha yeah it’s a bit slow and sticky but the images from it are 🔥

Awww thanks so much! Glad that you’re dusting the old girl off haha. Enjoy 👊
I still shoot with my original X100. Had it since day 1 since it was released
Awesome yeah! It’s an epic little camera.

Apparently will be called the X100V1.... loved the video, looking forward to more in '24!
Oh yeah? Thanksss!
beautiful photos
Awww thanks a lot!!
I have the black one. Got it at a yard sale for 200 bucks. Love it

Interesting. I know mine won't accept SD cards bigger than 64gb. Enjoy your VI!
Some nice shots in there man !
👊
Still a great camera..... even at 5am... when I cant sleep. 😂
Nice vid and shots Ross. I enjoyed that. 🙂😎📷👍
Browsing eBay 😂
Yeah for sure haha. I’m always on RUclips/eBay when I can’t sleep haha
Thanks 🙏
Good vid and shots again….one thing I would challenge..least here in the UK and that is saying you can buy one for £200, double that and I’d agree :)
Haha maybe.
Amazing ... i really regret selling this camera.
i can't even find one anymore where i leave, in New Caléonia.
Si I just use my X Pro 1 instead
Awww yeah if you find another you should grab it :)
What are the film simulations that you’ve used on the non monochrome shots?
Provia & Monochrome+R
But all edited in LR
were you using RAW?@@rossandhisjpegs
if you were using film simulation recipes, what were they? or were these raws you edited yourself
Edited RAWs :)
Which Fuji color sims were used on the images at the end?
Provia & Mono+R
photos look post processed. you didn't do any Lightroom work on these?
