The X100 sports chiselled magnesium alloy, banded by a leather-like finish that adds both grip and beauty.

On the inside there's cutting-edge technology including a 12.3-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor, 2.8-inch LCD display, and the ability to produce 720p HD 24fps video content all through the device’s fixed, non-interchangeable 35mm Prime Fujinon lens.

Echoing a traditional rangefinder camera, the top plate includes manual dials, each carefully milled from metal, for adjusting shutter and exposure compensation.

There's no better way to travel back to the golden age of photography.
