Verdict

The Fujifilm X100T is – and to call on a word so often misused – a unique camera. Although largely similar to its X100S predecessor, it’s the new electronic rangefinder option within the already excellent hybrid viewfinder that make it a proposition like no other. Yes, it will only appeal to a specialist niche; those who have a specific remit they’re seeking. But the X100T is both unusual and good looking enough to captivate a wider audience, much like how a renovated classic car pootling along down the street will turn heads. Small but important changes have made their way into the third-time X100 too. There’s improved autofocus (it’s still not perfect though) and an enlarged and higher-resolution LCD screen than before, while a new electronic shutter option to 1/32,000th sec makes for near-silent use should you need it. However, there’s still no exposure lock dial and, crucially, close-up focus with those wide-open apertures does not come under the X100T’s remit (and other limitations, which are unavoidable, see the fastest mechanical shutter speed limited to f/8.0, so be wary). At £1,000 the Fujifilm X100T is hardly pocket money, but it’s capable of producing cracking images in the right hands, the lens is lovely and sharp from f/4.0 and beyond, and that’s all wrapped into a distinctive and sturdy design worthy of proud ownership. There’s no doubt in our mind that the X100T is the best in the series yet, so long as you’re aware of the rough in among the diamonds…….
