When the Fujifilm X100 first hit the market it took the world by storm.

If you’re going to get serious about shooting all the time, the best camera you can buy yourself is a quality compact. High-end DSLRs and interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras can be intimidating to shoot with for the everyday photos, not to mention an unnecessarily heavy load to carry.

Fujifilm today announced the X100F, a new rangefinder-style compact camera that combines powerful imagine with a sleek, retro design. The X100F is the fourth camera in the X100 series, following the X100, X100S, and X100T.
