GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Street, Travel & Everyday Photography — X100F (2017): The X100F is the camera that made the X100 series legendary — 24MP X-Trans III, a hybrid viewfinder, and the best fixed 35mm compact lens available.
Creative Film Shooters Who Want More From Their Half-Frame — Ektar H35N (2023): Everything the H35 was, plus a multiple-exposure mode that opens up a world of creative in-camera double exposures. The natural upgrade for H35 fans.
