I spend today shooting the FujiFilm x100... A lot of people have asked me which photos I shot with it so today is all x100.   This is a great little camera.  It is by no means a replacement to my Leica but it's a great side kick.   I shot everything in aperture priority at  f/2.0 and ISO varies but less than 400.

I love how I live in an upscale neighborhood but there is graffiti... it seems like a Japanese way to allow things to naturally come into balance.

Now this is marketing genius at work.  In Japan, Starbucks prints on the bottom of their receipts 'One More Coffee' where you can buy one more coffee in the same day for 100 yen (about a dollar).   It's brilliant.  For someone like me who is fueled on coffee it gets me back in every day... often at lunch time where I get more than just my coffee.
