Fujifilm X100T Favorite Images

The X100T and my introduction to Fuji

How often do you switch camera brands? I see enough lightly-used products on eBay to guess some people switch brands a lot.

I grew up shooting Canon cameras. My Canon preference was that, a preference. I was brand agnostic for gear used by creatives I collaborated with.

The SLR / DSLR cameras I grew up with are big. I picked up a Canon S110 digital elf in 2001 as a discrete, go-anywhere companion for my Canon A1. It was years before usable cell phone cameras. The S110 created 1600 x 1200 images, which were the ideal web size in the 2000s.

I slowly stopped using it and in 2014, I saw what Kevin Mullins and Zach Arias were creating with the Fuji 100 series. Soon after ordered an X100T. I used the X100T from 2015 – 2022, alongside a Canon 7D2, Canon 5D III, or 5D IV. I was impressed with what mirrorless could add to my workflow and tested a couple of Fuji XT and XPro cameras before moving to all Fuji in 2020.

In 2022, I moved to the Fujifilm X100V and I sold the T. I looked back through my catalog of X100T images and picked these 10 favorites. It’s a mix of professional, personal and experimental images.

After hiking into Pamplona from Zabaldika on a cool morning, I stopped in a bakery near the government building. Outside, a woman sat with her coffee, and between us was the shop window with a sunscreen shade pulled down.
