Here is a series of portraits from the X100 taken by a professional wedding photographer.
Every shot was done wide open.

Think about these the next time somebody posts about how the X100 can't focus, is soft wide open, etc, etc.

Great light and the camera is obviously pretty incredible in terms of IQ. I love the wide open 'look' from it.
I need to get one of these cameras I think..

That's pretty damn impressive!
Can I hold out for the X101 or is this it?

well, so are images from any decent point & shoot like an LX3 when displayed small on a computer monitor

Not in the same way. If that guy had used an lx3 instead, I would be able to tell the difference between the images with the 2 cameras immediately - even on screen.

I've been using my LX3 for a few years and I'm dissapointed with noise above ISO80. But it's really nice at 80. Of course DOF with P&S is always a problem, except for the macro stuff. That's great.

There's 2 or 3 shots I really like. Really its most important that his clients like them.
His B&W processing is really decent.

These are some of the best shots I've seen with the X100, and the first to really pique my interest. The photographer put the camera up against some tough situations (backlight, high contrast lighting/mis-en-scene) and the camera performed admirably at least in black and white. If they made an interchangeable lens version even with three lenses (28/2, 50/2 and 90/f2 equivalents) I would be on it in a New York minute.

I can't see that the type of camera made them any better or any worse that they are. If it's a good portrait it's a good portrait, whether made on a P&S, a DSLR, or an X100. FWIW I don't think they are good portraits but they do definitely look like wedding photographer portraits.

There's a few nice images in there but that's not the point.
It was his first shoot with the camera. He trusted it wide open and it didn't let him down.
I think that speaks a lot for the camera as well as the shooter.
All of us with the X100 eventually find the comfort zone.
He just jumped right in. Pretty ballsy move but he did it.
Give him a few weeks and see what he does with it.
Many thanks to OP, it's a good post.
