Reliabaility of Fuji cameras?

by pjc30943 » Sat Jun 29, 2013 12:21 am

Anyone climb with any of the Fuji interchangeable lens cameras? I'd used a canon S90 for the last few years and that was plenty durable in cold weather and resistant to shock. It was stolen so I'm replacing it with one of the two following cameras. I don't know anything about how durable the fuji cameras are though. Thoughts?

The other option is this one:

I have been looking at the Fuji ILC as well. I have the Fuji x10 which I think is a wonderful climbing camera and was so impressed I was looking at what they have higher up. Fuji are quirky but very well made. Good luck with their ILC range I think you will be impressed, the reviews have been very favourable.

That is good to hear. What sort of climbs have you taken your x10 on? I'm looking whichever of those two can withstand cold and dents/dings from banging around in its case.

Much of my Spantik trip pics were taken with the Fuji X10
