Pros:
- Durable
- Great Features

Fujifilm X20 review
The gorgeously classic 12 megapixel Fujifilm X20 - like the rest of the premium X series - is a camera that has personality. It's not purely functional - indeed it's downright quirky in places - but the X20 is a camera that stands out in a sea of grey clones and we love it for that.
Pros:
- Gorgeous design
- Activated by twisting lens
- Optical viewfinder
Cons:
- Small sensor
- Low resolution
- Pricey

Awesome camera and is my perfect companion for street photography. In spite of some some reviewers complaining about the Fujifilm X20's quirks like noise above 1600 ISO and 'water colour effect' of jpeg images straight out of the camera, I think this is an absolute value for money camera.
