Check Shutter Count →The Fujifilm X100S (2013) was the camera that elevated the X100 series from a niche curiosity to a serious enthusiast platform. It replaced the original X100's EXR CMOS sensor with a new 16.3 MP X-Trans CMOS II sensor with on-chip phase-detection pixels — a first for any camera at the time. Paired with the iconic fixed 23mm f/2 Fujinon lens (35mm equivalent) and a leaf shutter rated at approximately 300,000 actuations, the X100S delivered exceptional image quality, fast hybrid OVF/EVF switching, and near-silent operation from a coat-pocket body.
| Model | Release | Sensor | Rated Shutter | RAW Format |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fujifilm X100S | 2013 | 16.3 MP X-Trans CMOS II | ~300,000 | RAF |
| Fujifilm X100T | 2014 | 16.3 MP X-Trans CMOS II | ~300,000 | RAF |
| Fujifilm X100F | 2017 | 24.3 MP X-Trans CMOS III | ~300,000 | RAF |
Use the mechanical leaf shutter rather than electronic shutter for the most accurate count reading.
| Shutter Count | % of Rated Life | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| 0 – 10,000 | < 3 % | Lightly used — excellent condition likely |
| 10,000 – 50,000 | 3 – 17 % | Moderate use — still very healthy |
| 50,000 – 150,000 | 17 – 50 % | Heavier use — inspect cosmetics carefully |
| 150,000 – 250,000 | 50 – 83 % | Well used — consider price discount |
| 250,000 + | 83 %+ | Approaching rated life — shutter replacement risk |
Fujifilm stores the image counter in RAF files as MakerNote tag 0x1438 (ImageCount). ShutterCount reads this tag directly from the RAF binary in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Note that this counter may reset if the camera's internal storage is formatted; verify consistency across multiple recent files.
Shoot a RAF frame with the mechanical leaf shutter and drop it into shuttercount.app. The count is read from tag 0x1438 in your browser, instantly and privately.
The X100S leaf shutter is rated at approximately 300,000 actuations. This is higher than typical focal-plane shutters in the same class thanks to the leaf shutter mechanism.
The X100T adds a small digital display inset within the optical viewfinder for exposure data, Classic Chrome film simulation, and a slightly refined body. If budget is tight, the X100S offers the same core image quality; the X100T is worth the small premium for the improved OVF experience.
No. Electronic shutter shots do not increment the leaf shutter counter. Only mechanical actuations are counted in tag 0x1438.
The X100S saves RAW images as .RAF files. This is standard for all Fujifilm X-series cameras. The RAF format encodes the X-Trans mosaic pattern, which requires Fujifilm-aware RAW processing software for optimal output.
