Fujifilm FinePix X100 large-sensor compact

Fujifilm just unveiled it's new large-sensor compact camera. This has a larger sensor than the micro 4/3rds format made by Olympus and Panasonic.

It is based on the 12MP APS-C CMOS sensor. It features a new hybrid viewfinder which allows you to switch between optical and electronic viewfinder.

It is aimed for the DSLR users who need a small backup camera when the large DSLR camera is inconvenient to use.

I like how it has a classic design and controls much like the old film cameras before.
