I'm finding these comparison discussions more and more confusing. There are so many sensor sizes now, it's impossible to remember what is what :-)

I have always been the proponent of a camera that will fit in my pocket and wasted so much time and dinero trying out each p&s that came along.

My criteria were real VF, high IQ (sensor size), fit in jacket pocket.

The Fuji x100 was the first and so far only camera that really meets all of these criteria, though I still haven't gotten my hands on one of the new Sony FF RX1 offerings...and I may not. I have somewhat made a commitment to the Fuji line, much as I made one to Nikon once the D1 was introduced (and gave me a 3 year lead in using a digital DSLR)...that probably means that inertia will now keep me with Fuji unless there is some major fault on their part or breakthrough from someone else - they have truly introduced a new "system" and so far I like it, much the same as Nikon did with the D1.

We'll see, but my advice to Rick is NOT to toss the x100 :-)

Happy New Year everyone !!!!
