By metering 90 degrees to the left I was able to get a more sensible exposure setting.

I had read about the sticking aperture blades, but if I shoot manually it seems to be fine? On one X100 forum post I read however someone had sent their camera back to Fuji to be told this was the issue (apparently common with this camera). He was told it was being fixed and was awaiting return, but also made the comment he had no problem when exposing manually.
Does it exhibit the same fault in both portrait and landscape orientation?
