“Photographer’s Guide to the Fujifilm X10” book giveaway

It seems that Fujifilm has fixed the “sensor blooming” issue in the X10 cameradpreview received a new X10 version that did not show any of the previously reported problems. Last month Fujifilm promised new sensors for current X10 owners. If you care about DxOMark scores, the Finepix X10 got one of the highest scores for point and shoot cameras.

To commemorate the “new” Fujifilm Finepix X10 camera, I will run a quick giveaway for this “Photographer’s Guide to the Fujifilm X10” book by White Knight Press.

I will close all comments in one week and will randomly pick the winner.
