Gave the X10 more random test shots today and mostly done using the EXR mode (I call this … the lazy bum like me mode) … all I did was press the shutter button. Many of them done in low light and here are the results …
The straight outta cam results are satisfying (for me). None of these shots were Photoshopped except for web resizing.
After some hours of use … I still don’t quite like the idea of having to turn the zoom barrel to switch on the cam (I prefer a single button/switch) and also it will be way nicer if it has those ermm … auto open/close lens cap/cover. 😀 These might not be an issue if you are not a lazy bum like me.
Overall … I think the image stabilizer works pretty well, colors look pretty neat, metering seems good, camera is light and the X10 makes a good camera to bring around when you wanna travel light. I wish it could use a filter without spending more money on a filter/hood adapter but unfortunately like the X100 … that darn adapter is option (which means more money!!!).
Finally I think this is a point-n-shoot camera (if I use it in EXR mode) that I’ll keep for some time.
