it comes down to personal preference. both make great street cameras, if you need low light performance, the X100s wins, if you like the option to change focal length and shoot mostly in daylight, the RX100II works great.

I’ve been debating between the sony rx100ii vs the fujifilm x100s… In weighing the pros vs cons, the sony rx100ii seems to win. What makes fujifilm x100s more better camera when it comes to street photography?

shame on you, Kim! just kidding. for jpegs, definitely go with the X100s then-they look absolutely gorgeous.

I hate to keep bugging you but between the Fuji x100s and Richo GR for shooting JPEG files then which will give the best quality. The key word here is jpeg. To my shame I shoot with the lowest possible jpeg that is why I like a camera that gives a good output in spite of the low jpeg setting.

depends. fuji’s produce excellent jpegs. the best of all cameras available to date. raw comes in handy if you have to make serious exposure adjustments and need to tweak contrasts, color etc.

Is shooting in RAW really that important? I shot an image in raw and it looked no differently than when I create a jpeg. The only difference I saw was that the RAW file was larger.

thanks Soied! yes, I always shoot raw, monochrome conversion in LR with slight tint.

Cool monochrome photos!
I also have GR, X100 and Rx100 but could never get these wonderful results.
I especially like DR and fade tone of shadow and hightlight.
Excuse me, I wonder how to edit it. You used LR or ACR after shooting by raw? Pls let me know.
