Verdictwhich should you buy?

FinePix X100S — Street & Travel: The X100S was the moment the X100 series became legendary. Dramatically faster phase-detect AF, X-Trans II image quality, Fujifilm's film simulations, and the iconic hybrid viewfinder in a pocketable fixed-lens body — the blueprint every subsequent X100 has built on. A brilliant used-market buy for street and travel photographers who want the Fujifilm experience at an accessible price.

X100T — Street, Travel & Compact Everyday Shooting: A polished step between X100S and X100F — the electronic rangefinder OVF mode was unique, and 16MP X-Trans delivers beautiful files at an accessible used price.
