[QUOTE="AC016, post: 332454, member: 9619"] The X100s being the DSLR killer.... hmmmm, i would have to somewhat disagree. In some areas yes, in other areas no. Aside from both being capable of taking photos, they are different tools. Could you take a X100s on safari? Most certainly you could. However, you would be limited when it comes to focal range (X100s has a converter that can turn it's lens into a 50mm). Aside from that, it would be able to take beautiful photos of anything that you could set that wonderful 23mm lens on. Fuji has not gone beyond 230mm in it's X mount lenses, YET. You have to keep in mind that the whole Fuji X system (the interchangeable lens cameras), started with the XPro1 back in 2012. In the 2 1/2 years since, they have developed 13 different lenses, all of which are stellar performers. What i am saying here, is the X system as a whole (interchangeable & fixed), is just under 4 years old. The DSLR is what... 15 years old? - let's not forget a lot of the tech was borrowed from the SLR days. As a whole, mirrorless cameras have plenty of room to grow and yes, i do believe that one day, the DSLR will go the way of the Dodo bird. [/QUOTE]
