Close?
You are psychic! :applause:

Except for the pet. In fact, the wife just waved in front of me, a picture of an unwanted dog ...with big doey eyes (both her and the dog!) :doh:

Well, a quick trip to the vet, some extra pet food, and you have a nice subject for the new cameras.

I just executed a very similar plan myself. Now my wallet has wrapped itself around my nightstand and refuses to travel with me anymore.

I have to say, it was a brilliant stroke of genius purchasing your wife a movie machine first. A tactic we should all take note of for future use.

The x100s has only 90% coverage in the viewfinder...does that concern anyone?

Interesting, I took a look at the spec sheet in B&H photo and they list it as 85/100. The 100% is for the LCD and they don't go into a number for the view finder so I would think it was the 85% which is worse than the 90%. Seems odd when both the xe and xpro have 100?

Seems like a lot of lost viewing area to me.

Would this be a show stopper for you?

I finally found the x100s spec sheet from Fuji and they use the 90% figure for coverage from the view finder. Not sure where B&H got 85%.
