I tend to travel quite a bit and, being a photographer, I tend to pack a lot of gear. A few months ago, while planning an urban adventure, I got a wild idea. Maybe I should pick up a small digital camera that would be a good lightweight travel camera? I wasn\u2019t sure where to start, but having used Fuji in the past, I went straight to looking at what they had to offer. I compared a few others – Sony, Ricoh, etc. It didn\u2019t take long to land on the Fujifilm X100<\/a> line and become a bit obsessed. Within the X100 line, there are older and newer models than the \u201cT\u201d, but I felt that this one had all of the features I wanted, plus the lower price tag of an \u201colder model\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t stop looking at other peoples photos, photos of the cameras, reading things about them, and just wanted to try one out so bad! KEH Camera<\/a> seems to know when I\u2019m getting a little dreamy over some piece of gear, and they pop up with a great sale that I just can\u2019t miss. It happened again – a great sale popped up right as I decided that the Fujifilm\u00a0X100T<\/a> was the one I wanted.<\/span><\/p>\n

My new-to-me Fuji arrived very quickly and in fabulous shape (even though it had a \u201cBargain\u201d rating). KEH always delivers high quality gear, even at the bargain rating, and this was no exception. While I could see signs of use, like the silver wearing near where a strap would rub, it was in really good shape. The camera was fully functional, very clean, and worked like a charm. I took it out on a few strolls around the neighborhood to test things out, and I quickly felt like I had made the right choice with this camera.<\/span><\/p>\n

Soon thereafter, it headed to San Francisco with me. I packed light for this trip, just one backpack for three days, and leaving behind my DSLR and medium format cameras was a relief to my back. I wasn\u2019t sure I\u2019d really appreciate being restricted to a 23mm (equivalent to 35mm) f\/2 lens, but it turned out to be perfect. 16 megapixels is a good size, too! I didn\u2019t regret leaving my heavy gear back at home, and thoroughly enjoyed this lightweight camera for walking around a big city.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the six months that I\u2019ve owned this camera, it has joined me on many trips and has yet to let me down. The fixed lens is restrictive, but I rarely actually feel restricted. It\u2019s wide enough, yet tight enough, for just about any scenario. The aperture allows for great low light results, too. Here are some other details that have stood out to me:<\/span><\/p>\n
